Wind-Injury (Common Cold)

Wind-injury is also called Wind-exposure; it is sometimes also known as the common cold. It is an illness with the main symptoms of headache, nasal mucosal congestion and discharge, sneezing, cold-aversion, fever, and a floating pulse. In general, it lasts 3–7 days. Its course seldom varies. In more severe cases, especially if it spreads widely within a fairly short period of time with similar symptoms in different patients, it is called influenza.
