Q

Phlegm-Heat Obstructing the LU Analysis

A

after pathogens have invaded the LU, and then stagnating which then turns up the heat, injuring the LU fluids forming phlegm. Or can be long-standing phlegm that turns into heat. both obstruct LU function

A

exterior dryness pathogen in autumn invading the wei qi level and injured fluids of the LU. two types-warm and cool

51
Q

LU Dryness Analysis
