According to the different external evil qi experienced by the patient, TCM divides the cold into wind-heat cold or wind-cold cold. The so-called wind-heat cold is when the patient feels the heat evil of the outside world, and at the same time, the wind evil helps the patient to have cold symptoms.

Wind-heat cold. It is caused by the evil of wind and heat, and the loss of lung qi. It is often manifested as severe fever and mild cold, because wind and heat are yang evil, and yang evil causes disease, so the fever is severe.
