When patients with febrile disease (Febrile Disease) take cold-natured medicines or drink excessive amounts of cold water, pathogenic factors may knot in the epigastrium (the area below the heart), causing abdominal distension and pain. This is due to deficiency of the Zang organs (Internal Organs) and pre-existing chronic conditions. Alternatively, after vomiting or purging, if the illness persists with heat present both internally and externally, abdominal distension and fullness will also occur; this constitutes an Excess syndrome (Excess Pattern).
