不是啦我说的上火是中医上的一种说法套用中医的话说上火就是人体阴阳失衡后出现的内热症感觉浑身像烧了一把火一样
bù 不shì 是la 啦wǒ 我shuō 说de 的shànghuǒ 上火shì 是zhōngyī 中医shàng 上de 的yīzhǒng 一种shuōfa 说法tàoyòng 套用zhōngyī 中医de 的huà 话shuō 说shànghuǒ 上火jiùshì 就是réntǐ 人体yīnyáng shīhéng 阴阳失衡hòu 后chūxiàn 出现de 的nèirèzhèng 内热症gǎnjué 感觉húnshēn 浑身xiàng 像shāo 烧le 了yī 一bǎ 把huǒ 火yīyàng 一样
It's not that. The internal heat I'm talking about is a concept from traditional Chinese medicine. To borrow a phrase from Chinese medicine, excessive internal heat is a heat disease that shows up when the Yin and Yang in a person's body get out of balance. You feel like you're burning from head to foot.
