Weakness of the spleen and stomach can cause symptoms of coughing. Chinese medicine believes that although the occurrence of cough is dominated by the lungs, it is closely related to the normal function of the five viscera and six bowels. Therefore, clinical treatment cannot just stop coughing and treat phlegm. Chinese medicine believes that the spleen is the source of phlegm and the lungs are the storage of phlegm. When the patient’s spleen and stomach are weak, the body is unable to properly transport water and dampness, which can easily coalesce into phlegm, and over time, the phlegm in the body will go up to the lungs, causing cough. Clinically, it is common to use Er Chen Ping Stomach San and San Zi Nourishing Family Soup to regulate the cough. Cough treatment must distinguish between evil, positive and real. There are six kinds of coughs, and there are also internal injuries, so they are divided into external and internal coughs. Exogenous cough can be divided into wind-cold, wind-heat, dryness and other symptoms, and internal cough can be divided into phlegm-dampness, phlegm-heat, liver-fire against the lungs, and lung-yin deficiency (insufficient yin-liquid in the lungs) and other symptoms. In addition to stopping the cough, the treatment is to relieve wind, disperse cold, promote lung, clear heat, moisten dryness, relieve urgency, diarrhea the liver, dissolve phlegm, and nourish the yin. Patients with weak spleen and stomach can usually eat more yam, barley, etc. to strengthen the spleen and dispel dampness (by tonifying the spleen to make the dampness discharge), and enhance the spleen and stomach transport function. Patients with weak spleen and stomach should strengthen their exercise, develop good habits of work and rest, and if necessary, be adjusted under the guidance of a professional Chinese medicine practitioner.
