What is Liver Fire?

Liver fire is called "rising liver fire" in traditional Chinese medicine. It is a problem with the regulation of qi and blood in the human body. It is not a very serious disease. Traditional Chinese medicine uses "fire" to describe certain hot symptoms in the body. The degree of getting angry is even more serious than "heat". Generally speaking, getting angry is the internal heat symptom that occurs after the imbalance of yin and yang in the human body. Traditional Chinese medicine believes that the pathology of "fire" can be divided into two categories: deficiency and excess. Common symptoms of getting angry are heart fire and liver fire. When it is not serious, there will be dry skin, sores in the mouth and tongue, heart irritation and lung heat. Therefore, do not take rising liver fire lightly. You should adjust your nutrition in time to remove fire and nourish the liver. Usually, some people get angry when arguing with others, so it is also compared to getting angry and having strong liver fire. Losing your temper can also damage your liver. Therefore, no matter what happens, don't lose your temper to avoid damaging your liver.
