Ancient prescription for treating cough

Today's medical diary is about various treatment methods of cough. Cough can be divided into deficiency syndrome and excess syndrome, heat syndrome and cold syndrome. Let's learn how to treat it according to syndrome differentiation.

First, Mai Men Dong Tang (deficiency heat): Fire goes against qi, and the throat is unfavorable. If the breath stops, Maimendong decoction is the main one (dry cough, no phlegm, heat).

The main symptoms are inability to speak and a bad voice. You can treat dry cough without phlegm and aphonia, that is, there is no voice. Maimendong decoction mainly clears away heat and phlegm. Its prescription: Ophiopogon japonicus, ginseng, licorice, Pinellia ternata, stem rice and jujube. If there is white phlegm and green phlegm in cough, we can treat lung cold with licorice and ginger soup. Then this kind of cough is a dry cough, and there is nothing in the throat, which means that the body fluid in the lungs is insufficient and the voice will be lost at the same time. The elderly are generally deficient in both qi and blood and often have a dry cough. This can be made with Mai Men Dong Tang. That bad voice also includes esophageal cancer, and I can't swallow anything. You can also use Mai Men Dong Tang, and the effect is also very good. People with esophageal cancer always feel that there is something stuck in their throat, which belongs to internal heat, so they also use Mai Men Dong Tang. There is also a woman's cough during pregnancy, and Mailuoning Tang Can can also be used. So all we have to do is watch the lady come in coughing with a big belly, and we can prescribe medicine for her. Just give her Mai Men Dong Tang. This principle is because most pregnant women have internal heat. If she is cold inside, she won't get pregnant at all. If she is cold inside, she won't get pregnant for two or three months, or she will leak out. So it can be judged that she must have a fever and cough, so Mai Men Dong Tang is fine, and tuberculosis mentioned by western medicine is also a syndrome of excessive internal heat. In the past, the patient said that he was dying of tuberculosis, and Maimendong Tang Can was saved. Therefore, Maimendong decoction is the best prescription for treating tuberculosis, with symptoms of dry cough, excessive internal heat, yellow tongue, and swallowing that thing. Of course, it doesn't matter if you eat four times.

Second, the hot-drenched jujube Xie Fei soup, this is a real fever, that is, the lungs have partially suppurated, that is, lung abscess, (breathing without lying down)

When it comes to excess heat, it's like pulmonary abscess. This is excess heat syndrome. The judgment of excess heat can be based on the patient's tongue picture. If the tongue turns yellow and is accompanied by thirst, then this is excess heat, which means that the contents are suppurated and the patient can't breathe and can't lie down. It is this patient who can't breathe and can't lie flat. Then the tongue coating is yellow and the pulse is numerous, so it can be judged that it is really hot. You can use Ziziphus Spinosae Seed Xie Fei Decoction. This soup, prickly heat usually costs five yuan, about ten red dates, prickly heat should be fried, three bowls of water can be boiled in two bowls, and one bowl can be cooked.

Thirdly, there is another prescription for treating excess heat: Qianjin Weijing Decoction (coughing and wheezing, but sleeping on your back).

Qianjin Weijing Decoction prescription: Rhizoma Phragmitis, Semen Benincasae, Semen Persicae and Coicis Semen. The coix seed here can be used in large doses. This coix seed is quite delicious. Coix seed can get rid of dampness, while others can promote blood circulation and remove blood stasis, (reed root, wax gourd seed) and reduce qi and phlegm. How about this prescription? It is also used for overheating. Generally speaking, when the patient comes, as soon as you feel that his pulse is numerous and his tongue is yellow, you can use Qianjin Weijing Decoction. What's the difference between this spicy jujube Xie Fei soup and Qianjin Weijing soup? It depends on whether the patient can lie down and sleep. If you can't lie down, your condition will be more serious, so you will use prickly heat. Then if he can sleep on his back, he doesn't need to use prickly heat, because it is very strong, so he can use reed stem soup. For example, a patient has a bad cough and breathing, but you ask him, "Can you lie down and sleep?" "yes." Just a thousand pounds of reed soup. If you can't sleep when you lie down, it's too late for reed stalk soup. Oh, hurry up and use the hot jujube Xie Fei soup, because some of it has festered. So use this prescription quickly at this time.

Fourthly, Platycodon grandiflorum and Glycyrrhiza Decoction (not hot but cold, spitting white phlegm like rice porridge) has developed into a very serious carbuncle.

Cough, chest fullness, chills, rapid pulse, dry throat, no thirst, turbid saliva, foul smell, long-term purulent vomiting like rice porridge is lung abscess, and orange stalk soup is the main cause. Before I could use Li Ting jujube Xie Fei soup, it was suppurated. "Cough fills your chest and makes you feel cold." When suppurating, it is not hot, but makes you feel cold. Why? Because you are suppurated, the yang is weak, and the yang is weak, but the patient will feel cold. As a result, you quickly felt his pulse and knew it was suppurative, but the patient didn't tell you it was hot. He said he felt cold, and his chest was where all the yang met. The patient's throat is very dry, but he is not thirsty, because yang deficiency has disappeared. At this time, he often vomits ... Spit stinks and pus is like rice porridge. This is purulent lung, mainly orange stem soup. You can use this recipe when you see that the patient's sputum is like porridge. There are only two kinds of medicines in the prescription, one or two (Radix Platycodi) and two or two (Radix Glycyrrhizae). Take three bowls of water and boil them into one bowl. Oh, take it at different temperatures. If you eat them, you will spit out pus and blood. This purulent blood is caused by platycodon grandiflorum. Remove these purulent blood. Then licorice goes down to detoxify and increase the body fluid in the stomach. This disease is completely a symptom of excess heat. If the patient is not cured at this time, lung cancer will turn to the back, like someone's vomit is completely white and transparent like water, with many bubbles on it, like rice porridge. This is lung cancer, which is very serious.

Five, Yuemai Decoction (cough, sweating, fever Yuemai Decoction disease)

"Cough out", cough, shortness of breath, this is because there is pressure in the chest, because the lungs swell there, people breathe, and their eyes are deformed. For those with large pulse, Yuemai decoction is used to treat Pinellia ternata, and Yuemai decoction is used to treat Pinellia ternata. Pinellia ternata can resolve phlegm. Aunt Moon is Herba Ephedrae, Gypsum Fibrosum, Rhizoma Zingiberis Recens, Radix Glycyrrhizae Preparata and Fructus Jujubae. When we were using Yuemai decoction, the patient came to tell you that I had a cough and a fever. Then you ask him, "Are you sweating?" "Sweat out", cough, fever and sweating, then Yue Mai Tang. The ephedra in it can stop sweating. Yuebi decoction is used when patients are sweating. If you have sweating, fever and don't cough, it is Guizhi decoction. Then there is sweating and coughing, which is Yuemai Decoction. Some people use Yuemai decoction when they have emphysema, especially those who smoke or quit smoking.

Sixth, Xiaoqinglong Decoction (cold and white tongue)

There is also pulmonary distension, this kind of emphysema, "wheezing, dysphoria, pulse floating, water under the heart." This is the water under the heart, it is Xiaoqinglong decoction, Xiaoqinglong is the main component of gypsum soup, Xiaoqinglong put a plaster in it, so the difference between the two is: Xiaoqinglong decoction, we only use Xiaoqinglong decoction when patients see exterior cold and interior cold, so what about exterior cold? Feel his pulse quickly. "Are you thirsty?" "Not thirsty", show your tongue. It is white, isn't it? "Are you sweating?" "No problem." He just told us that it was a little dragon, right? What about this Yuemaitang? The Yuemaitang mentioned above is full of sweat and internal heat. Oh, the sputum is yellow. This is the difference between the two. That's all I learned today. There are so many prescriptions caused by a cough, so complicated! Let's go
