Experts remind that in order to prevent and reduce the harm of dampness, we must pay attention to protecting the spleen. Only when the yang energy of the spleen and stomach is invigorated can we effectively resist the invasion of dampness. Therefore, at the turn of summer and autumn, special attention should be paid to ventilation in living and working rooms; after wading in water or getting caught in the rain, the body should be dried and changed in time; on cloudy days when the water is cold, do not soak in rivers or swimming pools for a long time to prevent external moisture from invading the skin and hurting people.
