First: in real life, there are many people who can't distinguish between wind heat cold and wind cold cold. In fact, it's better to distinguish them. The most obvious point is that wind heat cold patients will have body fever, while wind cold patients are more afraid of cold. A runny nose can be both.

Second: Generally speaking, wind cold patients will sneeze, while wind heat patients seldom sneeze, so if there is a sneezing phenomenon, the probability of wind cold cold is relatively large, but it is not certain, it needs to be judged from other places, for example, wind heat cold patients will sweat, while wind cold cold patients rarely sweat.

If you judge by yourself, it's easy to make mistakes because you ignore a symptom. In this case, if you take medicine, it's likely to aggravate the disease.
