Traditional Chinese medicine believes that yin deficiency leads to yang exuberance and yang exuberance leads to heat. Excessive yang refers to the pathological changes of excessive yang, hyperactivity of viscera and meridians, and excessive pathogenic heat in the process of disease development. Excessive yang leads to heat, which is caused by warm yang or yin, or by internal injury of seven emotions and excessive five emotions, or by qi stagnation and blood stasis and phlegm retention. Excess of yang is mostly manifested as excess of yang and deficiency of yin, which is characterized by heat, movement and dryness. Therefore, yin deficiency and hyperactivity of yang will cause heat-induced changes and aggravate dryness: emaciation, dry mouth and dry throat.
