In Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), fever without perspiration is viewed through the lens of patterns of disharmony. Unlike Western medicine, which often focuses on pathogens or infections, TCM considers imbalances in the body's energy systems. This symptom can arise from various patterns of disharmony, including disruptions in Qi, Blood, Yin, or Yang. Identifying the correct pattern is crucial for effective treatment.
