What is the cough?

Question 1: What is the problem of always having a dry cough? Dry cough is one of the common symptoms of clinical lung diseases, with complicated etiology, stubborn condition and difficult treatment. Recent research shows that almost all chronic persistent cough can be diagnosed by the cause. According to the onset time and syndrome characteristics of dry cough, the combination of traditional Chinese and western medicine was used to treat it based on syndrome differentiation, and satisfactory results were obtained. The treatment of dry cough is discussed as follows. Dryness leads to lung failure. This type is common in the early stage of cough after infection, more than in autumn every year. Covering the lungs is delicate and dirty, and it likes to moisten dryness and hate dryness. It likes to clear away heat instead of cold and heat. In autumn, dryness is caused by dryness, which invades the lung system, affects the function of lung declaration and descending, and burns lung fluid. The clinical manifestations are dry cough with little or no phlegm, accompanied by dry throat, itchy throat, dry nose, thirst, red tongue with little body fluid, thin white or yellow fur, and floating pulse. Treatment should relieve exterior syndrome, clear lung, moisten dryness and relieve cough. The prescription is modified Sangxing Decoction, and the medicines are: mulberry leaf, mulberry bark, almond, adenophora root, roasted loquat leaf, Fritillaria, Gardenia, fermented soybean, mint, reed rhizome, etc. If the patient's symptoms such as nasal congestion, bad wind and itchy throat are prominent, perilla leaves, cicadas, stiff silkworms, etc. Expelling pathogenic wind, dispersing lung qi and relieving cough can be added. This syndrome of yin deficiency, lung dryness and clearing away excess is more common in chronic bronchitis, cough variant asthma, tuberculosis or lung cancer, and it is used as a related examination in clinic to make a clear diagnosis. It can also be seen in patients who take heat-clearing and detoxification or antibiotic treatment for a long time, with deficiency of lung yin, insufficient body fluid, excessive fire due to yin deficiency and endogenous deficiency heat. The clinical manifestations are dry cough without phlegm, light day and heavy night, and persistent; Or less phlegm and sticky, not easy to cough up; Or blood in sputum, accompanied by dry mouth and throat, fever in hands and feet, emaciation and night sweats, red tongue with little coating, and rapid pulse. Treatment should be nourishing yin and moistening lung, clearing dryness and relieving cough. The prescription is prepared by mixing Radix Adenophorae, Radix Scrophulariae, Radix Ophiopogonis, Rhizoma Polygonati Odorati, Bulbus Lilii, Fructus Schisandrae Chinensis, Folium Eriobotryae preparata, Bulbus Fritillariae Thunbergii, Folium Mori and Cortex Mori. Rhizoma Anemarrhenae and Cortex Lycii are added for patients with fever of hands and feet and night sleep and night sweats; For patients with dry mouth and throat and blood in sputum, Rhizoma Phragmitis and Rhizoma Imperatae should be added. Stagnation of liver-qi, stagnation of body fluid and excessive phlegm are more common in laryngeal cough. Its main symptoms are dry cough, or choking and expectoration with little phlegm, accompanied by throat itching, foreign body phlegm sticking to throat stalk and other discomfort. Laryngeal itching refers to cough, repeated cough, persistent cough, dry mouth, fullness and even dull pain in chest and hypochondrium, bad mood, easy induction or aggravation, red tongue, thin and white fur (greasy) and thready pulse. The syndromes are stagnation of liver-qi, accumulation of body fluid, turbid phlegm, adverse qi movement and cough. Treatment is to soothe the liver and relieve depression, regulate qi and reduce adverse reactions. The prescription is Sini Powder and Bulbus Allii Macrostemon Powder, and the medicines are Bupleuri Radix, Radix Paeoniae Alba, Fructus Aurantii, Cortex Magnolia Officinalis, Perillae, Cortex Mori, Cortex Lycii, Jade Butterfly, Fritillaria thunbergii and Radix Platycodi. If you see obvious hypochondriac pain, add Fructus Toosendan and Rhizoma Corydalis as appropriate; Scutellaria baicalensis Georgi and Belamcanda belamcanda were added for patients with obvious sore throat. Rhizoma Anemarrhenae, Cortex Moutan and Fructus Gardeniae can be added for patients with depression. Syndrome of disharmony between liver and stomach and qi-rising is mostly related to gastroesophageal reflux, and 24-hour pH monitoring of patients' esophagus is positive. The clinical manifestations are dry cough with little phlegm, choking cough, easy to attack at night, often accompanied by heartburn and acid, especially after eating, hypochondriac discomfort, restless night sleep, red tongue, thin white fur and thready pulse. The etiology and pathogenesis are analyzed as follows: it starts in the stomach, then spreads to the lungs, involving liver qi. The syndrome belongs to disharmony between liver and stomach, imbalance of qi movement and imbalance of lung qi movement. The treatment of this disease should be mainly lung, liver and stomach; Cough relief is the standard, health is the foundation. Therefore, the treatment is to soothe the liver and stomach, reduce adverse reactions and relieve cough. The prescription is Fu Xuandai Zhetang and Banxia Houpu Decoction, and the medicines are Inula, Ochre, Pinellia, Magnolia Officinalis, Perilla, Turmeric, Baked Loquat Leaves, Bitter Almond, Coptidis Rhizoma, Evodia rutaecarpa and cuttlefish bone. Liver yin deficiency and wind chimes are more common in cough variant asthma, especially in spring. Clinically, cough often occurs repeatedly or continuously, often at night or in the morning, and it is mainly dry cough, sometimes accompanied by a small amount of white sputum, occasionally accompanied by wheezing, chest tightness, hypochondriac pain, dry throat and thirst, red tongue with little coating and thready pulse. Most patients are allergic, and they often have a personal allergic history or suffer from allergic diseases such as urticaria and eczema. Bronchial provocation test or relaxation test was positive. Syndrome differentiation belongs to liver yin and blood deficiency, blood dryness and wind, yin deficiency and wind, internal wind upset and wind chimes ringing. The prescription is allergic decoction, which is suitable for soothing the liver, calming the wind, calming the lung and lowering the adverse qi. The medicines are Mume Fructus, Fructus Schisandrae Chinensis, Bupleuri Radix, Radix Saposhnikoviae, Radix Paeoniae Alba, Ramulus Uncariae cum Uncis, Lumbricus, Corni Fructus, Ochre, Radix Peucedani, Glycyrrhrizae Radix, etc. To sum up, dry cough, as a symptom in the process of various acute and chronic diseases, has many causes, involving various viscera, with different degrees of severity and different treatment responses. Therefore, in the process of diagnosis and treatment, it is necessary to seriously study the etiology and pathogenesis, identify the parts of the tired viscera, distinguish the specimen from the actual situation, combine syndrome differentiation with disease differentiation, and carry out targeted treatment in order to get to the point and achieve good results.
