Doctor's answer (1)
Dr. He Haochen
Liver fire excess is usually caused by multiple factors, mainly including:
1. Emotional factors: Long-term emotional depression or agitation can lead to liver qi stagnation, which transforms into fire and is a common cause of liver fire excess.
2. Improper diet: Consuming excessive spicy, greasy foods, as well as alcoholic and other stimulating beverages, may generate internal damp-heat, leading to excessive liver fire.
3. Lifestyle habits: Long-term late nights, overexertion, and other unhealthy lifestyle habits may lead to insufficient liver energy, preventing the normal elimination of heat toxins from the body, resulting in liver fire excess.
4. Disease influence: Conditions such as the common cold may cause low immunity, subsequently triggering excessive liver fire.
Patients with concerns are advised to seek timely medical consultation.
