Question

The child has been experiencing pain in both sides of the temples and the Gate of Heaven Xue , starting from 8:30 pm to around 11 pm every night since the beginning of this year. When the pain occurs, the child clenchs her fists and sweats on her palm. She has visited the Second Affiliated Hospital of Nanchang University in Jiangxi twice. The first time was in March when the diagnosis was sinusitis-induced headache. After taking medication for several months, there was no improvement and the pain worsened. The second time was from December 17th to 22nd, and after a week of examination at the same hospital, the result was that the blood vessels were too small and insufficiently supplied with blood.

Answer

It may be caused by sinusitis, and medication treatment emphasizes the selection of sensitive antibiotics, using them in sufficient quantity and for a full course. In traditional Chinese medicine treatment, the focus is on dispersing wind, clearing heat, and aromatically unblocking channels, with detoxification and removing blood stasis as a supplement. In daily life, it is important to strengthen physical exercise to enhance resistance, such as morning jogging, swimming, cold water baths, and cold water face washes, all of which can enhance physical fitness and improve human tolerance to coldness.
