Can bronchitis patients do moxibustion?

Some patients with bronchitis can do moxibustion. Bronchitis is the name of a disease in Western medicine, and moxibustion is a medication and method in Chinese medicine. Moxa is warm in nature and moxibustion is mainly for treating deficiency-cold diseases, so patients with bronchitis belonging to deficiency-cold nature can apply it. Patients with deficiency-cold bronchitis do not have fever, are afraid of cold or coughing when they are cold, coughing worsens when they are cold, and even have chest tightness, thin, white phlegm, coughing in winter and sneezing when they are cold. The application of moxibustion should be gradual, starting with 1-2 times a week and gradually increasing the frequency, otherwise it is easy to catch fire and develop sore and dry throat. Patients with a history of asthma should be used with caution, as some asthmatics are allergic to the smoke and taste of moxibustion.
