Pathogenesis
Aversion to cold, fever, absence of sweating, headache, general body pain, thin tongue coating and superficial pulse are signs of externally contracted wind-cold pattern. Because the contraction of the pathogen is mild, the symptoms are slight aversion to cold and fever. The appropriate treatment is to release the exterior and dissipate cold.
Application
1. Essential pattern differentiation Zheng Chai Hu Yin is a representative gentle-dispersing formula created by Zhang Jie-bin. This clinical pattern is marked by fever, aversion to cold, headache, general body pain, white tongue coating, and superficial pulse. 2. Modern applications This formula may be used in biomedically defined disorders when there is an externally contracted wind-cold pattern without qi and blood deficiency. These may include common cold, influenza, initial stage of malaria, and common cold for women during menstruation, pregnancy or in the postpartum period.
