Pathogenesis refers to a step by step development of disease. Disease will always affect individuals differently due to our constitution/congenital essence; our inherited conditions and traits from our parents. How much a disease affects us will also depend on the strength of qi, our emotions, diet, and environment.
Inside of our bodies, there is a constant battle between evil qi (the qi that disrupts the body) and genuine qi (the qi that fights to regain balance). When genuine qi is stronger, our body is in harmony, when evil qi is stronger, our body is in disharmony.
Diseases can enter our bodies from many different orifices, but it can generally be said that yin pathogens enter through our skin and eventually penetrate organs, while yang pathogens enter through our mouth and nose and will usually attack lung and spleen first.
