In the height of summer, when human skin pores are open, one is prone to invasion by wind-heat and water-heat toxic pathogens. When these pathogens contend with Qi and blood in the skin, miliaria (miliaria rubra/heat rash) arises. The condition resembles boiling water; mild cases present as dense clusters like millet grains, while severe cases develop into sores due to maceration by hot sweat, hence the name. It is commonly known as "prickly heat."

The term Luoli (Scrofula/Lymphatic Tuberculosis) refers to a condition caused by the stagnation of wind-heat toxic pathogens in the chest and diaphragm, preventing their free circulation, which then contends with the Liver.
