What to do if you have oral ulcers caused by internal heat

Getting angry is the easiest way to cause oral ulcers, so if you want to avoid it effectively, you should pay attention to some methods of clearing heat and reducing fire. Dietary therapy is more appropriate. You can boil pork liver soup or mung bean porridge, both of which have certain fire-reducing effects.

1. Lotus seeds can relieve internal heat

Symptoms: There are two types of fire: deficiency fire and excess fire. Deficiency fire is manifested by low fever, night sweats, irritability, dry mouth, etc.; excess fire is manifested by recurrent oral ulcers, dry mouth, short and dark urine, irritability, etc. There are two points to note when treating "getting angry": First, choose Chinese medicine instead of blindly using Western medicine. Because the former regulates the whole body to cure the root cause, while the latter can only treat the symptoms. The second is to treat the disease based on syndrome differentiation according to the theory of traditional Chinese medicine. For example, to treat "middle-burner fire", it is appropriate to use Qingwei San and other medicines; to treat "heart fire", use Daochi San and other medicines; to treat "real fire", use Sanhuang Pian, Niuhuang Jiedu Pian and other medicines to reduce fire. It is best to do this under the guidance of a doctor. If you see "fire", you use Sanhuang tablets or the like, but sometimes it doesn't work and instead causes trouble.

Diet therapy: 30 grams of lotus seeds (without removing the lotus core), 15 grams of cassia seeds (wrapped in gauze), add appropriate amount of rock sugar, decoct in water, eat the lotus seeds and drink the soup.

2. Pork liver can relieve lung heat

Symptoms: dry cough without sputum or little and sticky sputum, hot flashes and night sweats, hot palms and soles, insomnia, and red tongue.

Diet therapy: 1 piece of pork liver, 30 grams of chrysanthemum (wrapped in gauze), cook until the liver is cooked, eat the liver and drink the soup.

3. Mung Bean Porridge Method

Symptoms: There are two types of deficiency and excess. Deficiency fire is manifested by mild cough, small amount of food intake, constipation, abdominal distension, red tongue and little coating; excess fire is manifested by upper abdominal discomfort, dry mouth and bitter taste, and dry and hard stool.

Diet therapy: 30 grams of gypsum powder, appropriate amount of polished rice and mung beans. First boil the gypsum with water, then filter out the residue, take the clear liquid, and then add polished rice and mung beans to cook porridge.

Among fruits, apples and pears have good functions of clearing away heat and reducing internal heat; kiwi fruit is rich in vitamins and is helpful for ulcers caused by internal heat.

4. Radish among vegetables also has the function of detoxifying and reducing heat.
