What is the reason for green tongue coating

First, in traditional Chinese medicine, there is a way to see a doctor, which is to look at the color and texture of the tongue. There is a thin layer of white fetus on the normal tongue, and the tongue is light red. When the tongue becomes thick and shows yellow, black, purple, it is abnormal in the body, but there are few green tongues. Therefore, if there are no other symptoms, it is only the tongue that turns green, which may be caused by food or drink, And have bitter mouth, constipation, dry mouth and other symptoms, that is, heavy internal fire, you can eat some food or medicine to clear the fire. In addition, you can also observe some time to see if there is a retreat; if not, the safest thing is to go to the hospital to check it!

Second, the tongue is connected with the five zang organs through meridians. Therefore, the deficiency and excess of the body's Zang Fu organs, Qi and blood, body fluid, and the changes in the depth and severity of the disease may be objectively reflected in the tongue image. Through tongue diagnosis, we can understand the nature, severity and changes of the deficiency and excess of Zang Fu organs and the pathogenic factors of the disease. Among them, the change of tongue quality mainly reflects the deficiency and excess of viscera and the rise and fall of Qi and blood, while the change of tongue coating is mainly used to judge the depth and degree of feeling external evil, as well as the rise and fall of stomach qi.

Third: the yellow tongue coating is sometimes similar to the green, and the yellow tongue coating is mainly of internal heat syndrome. If the tongue coating is thin, yellow and dry, the interior is hot and the body fluid is damaged. The tongue has cracks. It is extremely hot in the interior, body fluid is injured, and viscera are hot. The tongue coating is yellow, thick and greasy, mostly phlegm heat, food accumulation or yellow coating damp heat. The tongue coating is yellow and smooth, which is the manifestation of Yang deficiency.
