Excessive dampness in the body clinically manifests as heavy-headedness, dizziness, bitter taste, bad breath, indigestion, loose stools, discomfort during bowel movements, joint swelling, joint pain, and impaired joint mobility. Women may also experience dysmenorrhea following menstrual irregularities or missed periods. Patients with excessive dampness often develop acne or eczema on the face, oily hair, general fatigue, limb weakness, loss of interest in activities, and increased sleepiness.
