流感后，先补脾！中医教你抓住康复“黄金期”

Core Viewpoint - The recovery period from influenza is longer than that of a common cold, requiring careful management to prevent complications and reinfection [1][2][4][6][7] Group 1: Recovery Characteristics - Influenza often presents with acute onset and severe symptoms, leading to significant bodily strain, which prolongs recovery even after surface symptoms have subsided [1] - The immune function of influenza patients typically requires 1 to 2 weeks to fully recover post-clinical recovery, during which time they are at risk of reinfection if they resume high-intensity activities too soon [2] Group 2: Traditional Chinese Medicine Perspective - Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) views influenza as an invasion of external pathogens, with symptoms indicating a struggle between the body's immune system and the illness [4] - Post-recovery, the body may experience deficiencies, particularly in lung and spleen functions, leading to symptoms like fatigue and poor appetite if not properly managed [4] Group 3: Recovery Management Recommendations - Systematic recovery management should include both medication and dietary adjustments, with specific herbal remedies recommended based on individual symptoms [6] - Dietary intake should be light and easily digestible, gradually increasing high-quality protein sources to support immune function and tissue repair [6] - Physical activity should be limited to gentle exercises during the initial recovery phase, with an emphasis on maintaining a regular routine and avoiding exposure to crowded places to prevent reinfection [6][7]
