All diseases are caused by phlegm, expectorant on the Fenglong point Phlegm is originally a product of human disease, and its production and increase will lead to more diseases, so expectorant, from ancient times to the present is a headache for doctors and patients, need to carefully dig out the root of the disease to do. The method I often use in clinical practice for expectorant phlegm is to press and knead or tap the right Fenglong point with a small health hammer, then pound licorice and apply it externally to this point. The method is to press and knead or hit the right Fenglong point with a small health hammer for 5 minutes, then hammer and pound the licorice bought from the pharmacy and apply it to the point, fixing it with medical gauze and medical tape. Each time it is applied for 12 hours, remove it and rest for 12 hours before applying it again. Fenglong point, a ligament point of the foot Yangming Stomach meridian, is located on the front outer side of the calf and has been a great treasure point for dispelling phlegm for medical practitioners of all schools since ancient times. Licorice, which grows in sandy soil, has a sweet taste and a yellow color, which, from the perspective of the I Ching, is the best choice for nourishing the spleen and benefiting the qi, as well as dispelling phlegm and relieving cough. Phlegm is a product of malfunction in the body’s water metabolism, which is closely related to the lungs, spleen and kidneys, and most closely related to the spleen, which is why Chinese medicine has the saying that “the spleen is the source of phlegm” and “the spleen does not retain dampness to produce phlegm”. The Fenglong point is a ligature point of the foot Yangming Stomach meridian, which is located on the foot Taiyin Spleen meridian, and can treat both the Spleen and Stomach meridians at the same time. The ancients said, “Phlegm should be sought to Fenglong” “Fenglong, lung Yu, phlegm coughing is called strange. Yes, Fenglong has traditionally been regarded by doctors as the most important treasure to dispel phlegm, so how can we not do it because the points are small, so all phlegm-related diseases should be treated through the Fenglong point. Diet phlegm elimination trick eat more sesame and less meat phlegm friends, usually must pay attention to their diet. The old saying goes, “Fish produces fire, meat produces phlegm.” Eat more meat, especially pork eat more, is very easy to produce phlegm, so phlegm friends should reduce their meat consumption, eat more light food to do. Among the daily diet, sesame seeds are more effective in eliminating phlegm. You can fry the sesame seeds, grind them into powder, and eat some every day. Of course, if you can buy pure sesame oil, it would be better. If you use sesame oil as a cooking oil in your daily diet, it will not take long for the phlegm to disappear. Insomnia with phlegm-damp stagnation A few years ago, I treated a case of stubborn insomnia, when I carefully examined the patient’s symptoms and found that the main cause of her illness was phlegm-damp stagnation in the body. So, I used the external treatment method of applying licorice to the right Fenglong point and told her to go home and treat herself according to this method. Insomnia caused by phlegm in the body can be treated not only by the above method of external application, but also by the famous formula for warming diseases, Wen Biao Tang. For insomnia caused by phlegm, the skin of the patient’s face or body is usually yellowish, so if you have insomnia with yellowish skin, it is best to try the Chinese medicine Wenzhi tablets made from Wenzhi Tang. Chinese medicine classifies phlegm into three categories: phlegm of qi stagnation, phlegm of spleen deficiency and blood phlegm. Qi-depressed phlegm – lipoma Qi-depressed phlegm is commonly known as lipoma, which is mainly caused by breathlessness in the chest. Phlegm of spleen deficiency – phlegm of cough The phlegm we cough sometimes does not come from the lungs, but from spleen deficiency, so we should strengthen the spleen and dispel dampness. Blood phlegm – hyperlipidemia Blood phlegm is formed by hyperlipidemia, and phlegm is generated due to the accumulation of blood lipids. These three types of phlegm can be transferred to each other, and the cause of the disease is determined beforehand so as not to open the door. There are two acupuncture points that have a significant effect on phlegm through self-massage The Fenglong point of the foot Yangming Stomach meridian. Fenglong point is most useful for modern people, it can remove high blood lipids, so people with very heavy phlegm and dampness in the body must rub this point. When someone has a dumb throat and says he has something stuck in it, but he can’t spit it out, he may have a phlegm knot in his throat, so he presses the Fenglong point for one minute and immediately feels that the knot is opened and nothing is left, so he doesn’t know where the phlegm has gone. So it can dissolve both the visible and invisible phlegm. If you feel that there is something here but you can’t spit it out and you can’t swallow it, like plum kernel qi, it can be dispersed. If someone feels that there is phlegm that cannot be spit out, it is easy to spit out the phlegm after rubbing the Fenglong point, which is a very important point for resolving phlegm. Location of the point: Find the two points on the outside of the leg, the knee eye and the outer ankle, connect them into a line, then take the midpoint of this line, next find the shin bone on the leg, 1.5 inches outside the front edge of the shin bone, about the width of your two fingers, flush with the midpoint just now, press it nearby, the place where you feel the most soreness and heaviness or obvious pain is the Fenglong point, press it for about 3 minutes a day. Zhizheng point of the Hand Sun and Small Intestine meridian. Five inches above the transverse wrist line, here (is) the Zhi Zheng point. This position is on the side – the small intestine meridian is all on the side – and this point is called Zhi Zheng, “branch” is the branch of the side branch, “Zheng This point is called Zhi Zheng, which means “branch” and “Zheng” means “orthodox”. All put the heart as the official of the sovereign, it as positive. The branch is the main point of the small intestine meridian that leads to the heart, so it is called the branch. On the other hand, the heart and the small intestine are mutually exclusive, so this is a luo point between the small intestine meridian and the heart. It is a luo point, which means liaison. The Zhi Zheng point has a special effect, it can treat superfluous organisms in the body. What is the cause of a wart and a flat wart? Why do these growths occur? In Chinese medicine, these superfluous organisms are called phlegm knots, which is the knotting of dampness together into these things, called phlegm-damp knots. On the other hand, there is the disease of qi stagnation, that is, there is some qi, the body of phlegm and dampness condensed into these superfluous organisms. Lipomas are also these things, which are all phlegm knots in the body. By massaging the Zhizheng point, you can dissolve these superfluous organisms. Why does it have this effect? If the digestive function of the human body is not good, the phlegm and dampness will not be digested. If the function of the small intestine is enhanced, the phlegm and dampness can be dissolved in time, so these superfluous creatures will not be produced.
