3. The definition of phlegm obstructing lung syndrome [1] refers to phlegm obstructing lung syndrome, which is characterized by asthma, cough, excessive phlegm, adverse vomiting, chest tightness, nausea, pale tongue, greasy fur and slippery pulse.
The syndrome of asthma with phlegm-dampness obstructing the lung is chest tightness and fullness, or even chest fullness and lying down, cough with thick and white phlegm, which is not conducive to vomiting, nausea, anorexia, greasy mouth, sticky mouth, abdominal distension, thick and greasy fur, white color and slippery pulse [3][4].
In the syndrome analysis, yang qi is not transported, dampness accumulates to produce phlegm, phlegm and turbidity hinder the lung, and the lung loses control [5].
The middle yang is not transported, and it accumulates as phlegm, which is trapped in the lungs, blocking the airway and losing lung qi, so the qi is full and stuffy, and the sputum is colorful, white and sticky; When phlegm and dampness accumulate, the lung and stomach are not harmonious, resulting in nausea, anorexia, sticky mouth, thick and greasy fur and slippery pulse. When the spleen is trapped by phlegm and dampness, it can be seen that the stomach is bloated and the mouth is greasy. Tongue pulse is the sign of phlegm-dampness. [3][4]
6 Treatment of excess asthma with phlegm-dampness accumulating in the lung 6. 1 The treatment of excess asthma with phlegm-dampness accumulating in the lung should eliminate phlegm and reduce qi [4].
Asthma is excessive and phlegm-dampness accumulates in the lung, so the treatment should be to eliminate phlegm and reduce adverse flow, spread the lung and relieve asthma [5].
6.2 Erchen Decoction [Remarks] Erchen Decoction (recommended by Taiping Huimin Association): Pinellia ternata, dried tangerine peel, poria cocos, roasted licorice, and Sanzi Yangqin Decoction [Remarks] Sanzi Yangqin Decoction (Han Yitong): perilla, white mustard seed and radish seed. Pinellia ternate, dried tangerine peel and poria cocos are used for resolving phlegm; Perilla frutescens, white mustard seed, radish atractylodes rhizome, magnolia officinalis, etc. Removing dampness, regulating spleen and promoting qi circulation can be added to help resolve phlegm. [4]
6.3 Acupuncture Treatment of Asthma Syndrome and Phlegm-dampness Accumulation in Lung Syndrome [3]
Treatment: invigorating spleen and resolving phlegm, lowering qi and relieving asthma.
Acupoint selection: spleen meridian of foot Taiyin and lung meridian of hand Taiyin are the main points. Take skin points, Zhangmen point, Fenglong point, Lieque point and Tiantu point.

Acupuncture and moxibustion: acupuncture and diarrhea can be added with moxibustion.
Prescription 1: Zhangmen is the point of collecting spleen, and it is matched with spleen Shu to strengthen spleen and resolve phlegm. Fenglong is an effective acupoint for eliminating phlegm. Insufficient acupoints of lung meridian can spread lung and relieve asthma. Tiantu is a local acupoint selection, which can dredge the airway and relieve asthma.

7 Empirical dyspnea (6) and empirical dyspnea (1) are the names of diseases and syndromes [7]. It refers to asthma based on syndrome differentiation [1][6]. Including asthma syndrome, wind-cold attacking lung syndrome, asthma syndrome, external cold and internal heat syndrome, asthma syndrome, dryness-heat injuring lung syndrome, asthma syndrome, phlegm-dampness accumulating lung syndrome, asthma syndrome, wind-heat invading lung syndrome, asthma syndrome, phlegm-heat resisting lung syndrome, asthma syndrome, external cold and internal drinking syndrome, etc.
About Asthma Syndrome Asthma Syndrome is the name of this syndrome. Referred to as dyspnea, also known as dyspnea, dyspnea and wheezing. The main clinical symptom is shortness of breath, and its onset is closely related to lung and kidney, that is, lung is the main qi and kidney is the root of qi. The lung governs the exhalation, the kidney governs the inhalation, the yin and yang intersect, and the breathing is harmonious. If the cashier goes up and down abnormally, she will be out of breath. (See Syndrome Differentiation and Treatment and Asthma Syndrome). Asthma syndrome is in critical condition and needs accurate syndrome differentiation and timely treatment.
Asthma syndrome is characterized by dyspnea, even lifting shoulders with open mouth, twitching nose and being unable to lie flat. In severe cases, every breath is cut off. It is caused by exogenous six evils, internal injury to diet and emotion, and chronic illness and physical weakness. Its disease mainly lies in the lung and kidney, and is also related to the liver and spleen. [4]
Asthma is caused by lung diseases or other visceral diseases for a long time, which leads to lung qi upwelling, no right to descend, shortness of breath, difficulty breathing, and even mouth opening, shoulder lifting and inability to lie flat. Generally speaking, those with pathogenic factors blocking the lung are asthma with excess, and those with insufficient essence are asthma with deficiency. [3]
Asthma syndrome can be divided into two categories: excess asthma and deficiency asthma. Asthma in excess is due to pathogenic factors blocking the lung, and loss of qi can be declared, so the treatment is to eliminate pathogenic factors and replenish qi [4]. The basic pathology of empirical asthma belongs to "turbid and orderly, and qi is disordered in the lungs." (See "Huangdi Neijing Lingshu Five Disorders") If exogenous pathogenic factors lead to six evils, phlegm and turbid water are blocked in the lungs and lung qi is lost in propaganda, it is called excess asthma. The function of "lung governing qi" is obviously weakened due to weak endowment or loss of vitality, so that the kidney does not accept qi, so it needs treatment [4].
Excess asthma is mainly based on eliminating pathogenic factors, while deficiency asthma is mainly based on supplementing. Many patients suffer from asthma for a long time, lose their vitality, and have pathogenic factors (phlegm, water drinking, and qi stagnation), which belong to the syndrome of excess and deficiency, and should be combined with strengthening the body resistance and eliminating pathogenic factors. Usually at the time of onset, it is mainly to eliminate evil; Most of the evils are removed, and the method of strengthening the body is the main one. When you have asthma syndrome, you should cough while breathing every time you cough. Asthma is called asthma, wheezing for short. Besides drug therapy, acupuncture, moxibustion, external therapy and drug acupoint iontophoresis can also be combined. As for deficiency asthma and excess asthma, they can be divided into various syndrome types because of different conditions such as etiology, syndrome and constitution.
Asthma syndrome can be seen in the process of various acute and chronic diseases. It is not only one of the main syndromes of lung diseases, but also caused by other visceral diseases that affect the lungs. Therefore, it is necessary to combine the syndrome differentiation of diseases with the cross-references of related articles in order to comprehensively analyze the characteristics of diseases and master their different prognosis.

Obstructive emphysema, pulmonary heart disease, cardiopulmonary insufficiency and other diseases in modern medicine can be treated with reference when dyspnea occurs. [4]
