Disease description:
My younger brother has had yellow nasal discharge and a red tongue coating for the past few days. The doctor diagnosed it as a "heat-type" cold. How can a heat-type cold be treated effectively for a quicker recovery?

Heat感冒 can recover more quickly through physical therapy, acupuncture, and oral medications. If the symptoms of heat感冒 are mild, acupuncture may be used to promote blood circulation and alleviate the symptoms. However, if the symptoms are severe, it is recommended to take medications such as ibuprofen or acetaminophen under the guidance of a doctor.
