It appears only in autumn season and can cause autumn—dryness disease. In the early autumn，the pathogenic dryness frequently combines with heat pathogen and results in a warm—drynessdisease，while in the later autumn，the pathogenic dryness combines with cold pathogen and results in a cool—dryness disease，that doesn't belong to warm disease. It has the following three pathogenic features.First，it invades into the lung initially，and then takes the lung as its main location，presentingthe manifestations of dryness—heat attacking the lung with mild wind—heat exterior syndrome.Second，it always impairs the body fluid in the lung，and leads to various externally drysymptoms，such as dry mouth，throat，lips，nose，eyes and skin and hair.Third，it may have a liability to convert into fire upward，so manifests as reddish and sorethroat，swollen gums，congested eyes，nasal bleeding and tinnitus.
