Abstract:
Fever and sweating are the most common clinical symptoms, which are important parts in the inquiry of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM). Just as Zhang Jingyue said, Firstly inquire for cold and heat and secondly in-quire for the sweating. It placed both symptoms as priorities in the collection of disease history. In the clinical prac-tice, febrile diseases refer to acute exogenous diseases infected by warm evil with the main symptom of fever. And fever is almost throughout the entire process of febrile diseases. It is also known as Han-Bing for the visible varia-tion of sweating in its entire disease process. It is important to identify the abnormality of sweating for the determina-tion of the severity febrile diseases and the level of body fluid shortage. Therefore, two main symptoms for the diag-nosis of febrile diseases are particularly prominent and important. The reasons of sweating and fever in febrile dis-eases have been explored so much but the relationship between them is less which is extremely essential to learn more about febrile diseases. So we are expected to explore this topic to make better use of theories of febrile dis-eases.
