However, people in the South often have weak physical constitution and less obvious heat (less severe pharyngeal pain), with more cases of wind cold. This is because colds are often caused by exposure to cold or wind, and when pharyngeal pain occurs, it is often accompanied by symptoms of itching in the throat.

Sleep grinding or biting teeth
Sleep grinding, also known as biting teeth, refers to the rhythmic contraction of the chewing muscles during sleep, where the upper and lower teeth tightly bite and slide, making a loud creaking sound. Sleep grinding usually occurs during the shallow sleep stage, when the body's activity and heart rate increase while the person is not awake. Even if I wake up, I know nothing about grinding my teeth. When I wake up the next day, I often feel pain and headache in my cheeks, sometimes accompanied by damage to periodontal tissue.
Traditional Chinese medicine believes that the brain is the home of the essence, and sleep is related to the circulation of yin and yang qi in humans. If you sleep well and have abnormal behavior (including grinding teeth) during sleep, it is all related to the brain. Treatment is suitable for tonifying the kidneys and filling the marrow, strengthening the brain and calming the mind. The following formulas can be tried: 50g of raw Rehmannia glutinosa and 50g of Lingmagnetite (decocted first), 10g of roasted licorice, black plum, Alisma orientalis, Danpi, Schisandra chinensis, Polygala, and Xiangfu each, 12g of Cornus officinalis and yam each, 6g of Dendrobium officinale (adult dose above, children's discretion reduced), decocted and taken.
