Effectiveness of Chinese medicine in treating lung nodules

Chinese medicine believes that the treatment of lung nodules can choose drugs that have the effect of resolving phlegm and dispersing knots, broadening the chest and regulating qi, such as Zhe Beimu, Bai Zhi Zi Zi and so on. As the therapeutic effect of the drugs in the clinic is related to the patient’s condition, constitution and other factors, it needs to be considered comprehensively and cannot be generalized. 1. Zhebeimu: the drug has the efficacy of clearing away heat, resolving phlegm and relieving cough, detoxifying and dispersing nodules and eliminating carbuncles (evacuating nodules and eliminating carbuncles and poisons), which can be clinically used for the treatment of wind-heat coughs, phlegm-fire coughs, carbuncles of the lungs, carbuncles of the breasts, scrofula (mainly referring to tuberculosis of the cervical lymph nodes), sores and other illnesses. It should be noted that the drug should not be used with Chuanwu, Caowu, epiphyllum and so on. 2. White mustard seed: this medicine has the effect of resolving phlegm and expelling drink, dispersing knots and eliminating swelling, and can be used in the treatment of coughing, asthma and phlegm, chest fullness (chest distension and discomfort), coercive pain (coercive pain in the area of the ribs), numbness of the limbs, arthralgia, damp phlegm injection (multiple abscesses in the deep muscle), yin gangrene (a kind of slow negative sores and ulcers), and swelling and poison, etc. When using this medicine, it should be noted that it is not suitable to use with Chuanwu, Caowu, and Pianzi. When using it, it should be noted that it is contraindicated for people with lung deficiency and cough, and yin deficiency and fire. Patients with lung nodules are advised to go to regular hospitals for consultation and treatment under the guidance of professional physicians to identify the symptoms.
