Disharmony of Ying and Wei
Version 1.0.0 · Updated 2026-07-30
CORE DEFINITION
The disharmony between Ying Qi (nutritive/blood/interior) and Wei Qi (defensive/qi/exterior) in their coordination, manifested as sweating with aversion to wind (sweating without resolving the exterior). It can be either Wei Qi hyperactive and Ying Qi weak, or Wei Qi weak and Ying Qi hyperactive.
SCAFFOLDING EFFECT
Reduce cognitive load
A loophole in the defense network. Normal sweating is like 'opening the door to expel the thief', and after sweating, the illness resolves. Disharmony of Ying and Wei is like 'the door cannot close', with continuous sweating and wind entering. In this case, one should neither stop sweating nor induce sweating, but use Guizhi Decoction to coordinate the opening and closing mechanism.
Anchor fast decisions
In traditional Chinese medicine, it refers to the dysfunction and loss of normal coordination between Ying Qi (which travels within the vessels and nourishes) and Wei Qi (which travels outside the vessels and protects). It is commonly seen in exterior syndromes, manifested as aversion to cold, fever, and abnormal sweating.
