Nose and Throat Ailments - Chinese Medicine explanation and treatment
The nose is directly dominated by the lungs. Chinese Medicine treatment will be through the lung channel or the lungs themselves. According to Chinese Medicine sneezing or a runny nose is a weakness caused by wind and cold in the lung.
Throat problems can also be due to a blockage in the lung. A Chinese Medicine practitioner will prescribe Mulberry leaf, plantain seed, peppermint, honeysuckle flowers or skullcap.
Chinese Medicine sees nose-bleeds as the result of heat in the blood. In the case of women who have nose-bleeds during menstrual periods, the problem is considered to be blood rising instead of descending. Fresh herbs are the most effective cure for this condition; rehmannia, peony root and thistle being the ones most commonly used.
