上火确实是一个很常见的问题。中医认为，上火是人体阴阳失衡的表现，人体内火旺盛就会上火。比如有些人会因为太兴奋而焦虑生气，有些人会因为吃了太辛辣的东西而生气，有些人会因为季节性的炎热而生气。不要混淆生气和发烧的概念。
今天我们就来了解一下如何用英语表达“上火”、“发烧”？“上火”英语怎么说？
我们可以用英语单词：heatiness，n.上火(描述有热气的身体状态)
reduce heatiness 降火
keep heatiness away 去火；不上火
也有人创造了一个新词 heatiness ，来形容有热气的身体状态，也就是上火。
I usually reduce heatiness by drinking herbal tea in summer.
我夏天经常喝凉茶降火。
还可以使用英文短语：get inflamed
It would make the body get inflamed. I knew.
它会让身体上火嘛，我知道的。
get inflamed 发炎，红肿 -- 口腔上火之类的是一种病症
It would make the body get inflamed. I knew.
它会让身体上火嘛，我知道的。
关于上火，这几个句子很适合介绍上火这个概念：

在传统中医中，食物分为热性，凉性和温性
②Over eating 'heaty' food will cause bad breath, sore throat, acne and ulcers.

②'Cooling' foods reduce heat in the body, and help in detoxing the body and removing the toxins.
凉性食物可减少体内热气，并有助于身体排毒。
（detox /?di?t?ks/ 和toxin /'t?ks?n/ 都有身体排毒的意思）
④Too much ‘cooling’ food will actually make you feel intolerant to cold weather, giving rise to sore muscles, fatigue and cold limbs.
过多的凉性食物实际上会让你感觉不耐受寒冷的天气，导致肌肉酸痛，疲劳和四肢冰冷.
