Steamed oranges for cold or hot cough

Steamed oranges are just a food and do not have the efficacy of medicine to treat coughs, either cold or hot. Cough needs Chinese medicine to identify and treat. Steamed oranges, which are steamed and eaten, are a food that mainly contains carbohydrates, dietary fiber, vitamins and minerals. Eating steamed oranges can mainly provide heat for the body, supplement the body’s metabolic needs of the basic substances, and does not have the role of cough treatment. Chinese medicine believes that cough can be divided into external cough and internal cough. External cough can be divided into wind-cold and wind-heat cough; internal cough can be divided into phlegm-dampness lung, phlegm-heat lung, liver-fire lung, lung yin deficiency (lung yin-liquid insufficiency) and other types of coughs, which need to be given different drugs for treatment. For example, wind-cold attacking the lungs is treated with San’ao Tang, wind-heat attacking the lungs is treated with Sang Ju Drink, phlegm-dampness impregnating the lungs is treated with Er Chen Ping Stomach San, phlegm-heat depressing the lungs is treated with Qing Jin Resolving Phlegm Tang, liver-fire attacking the lungs is treated with Diabai San, and lung-yin deficiency is treated with Shashen Maidong Tang with additions. Note that allergy to drugs is prohibited. If you have a cough, it is recommended to consult a doctor in time, follow the doctor’s instructions for examination and treatment, do not take medication without authorization, so as not to delay the condition.
