Nao Gan (Brain Gan) often arises from contracting wind-heat pathogens, compounded by improper breastfeeding or feeding regulation. Symptoms include shiny and tight scalp with "pancake sores" (bi chuang), hot head with dry, matted hair resembling grain ears, dry nose, irritability, swelling of cheeks and fontanelles, fatigue, dim vision, sweating, and body heat. Long Dan Wan (Gentian Pill) and Long Nao Wan (Borneol Pill) are highly effective; blowing Long Nao San (Borneol Powder) into the nose yields rapid results.
[Note] Nao Gan occurs because the child has previously been affected by wind-heat, combined with irregular feeding, leading to this syndrome. Manifestations include shiny and tight scalp, pancake sores on the brain/head area, hot head with dry hair, hair matted like tufts, dry nose, irritability, hardness and swelling of cheeks and fontanelles, fatigue, dim eyes, spontaneous sweating, and body heat. For brain heat causing sores, Long Dan Wan is indicated; for irritability, fever, and emaciation, Long Nao Wan is indicated. Externally, apply Long Nao San via nasal insufflation, and the condition will resolve spontaneously.
