Title: Discussion on Pathogenesis and Treatment of Asthma due to Spleen Deficiency and Phlegm Accumulation
Abstract: The occurrence of asthma is due to the disorder of internal organs and the accumulation of phlegm caused by the invasion of six exogenous pathogenic factors or innate deficiency. The deficiency of the spleen fails to transport and transform food and drink,leading to the insufficiency of the lung or the impairment of the kidney. If the essence of food and drink is deficient,the internal organs will be affected,bringing on the disorder of water metabolism and accumulation of phlegm. Although several internal organs are involved in the process of water metabolism,the spleen deficiency plays the key role in the accumulation of phlegm. Therefore,the therapeutic principle is supporting healthy Qi and the therapeutic method is invigorating spleen to resolve phlegm and avoide water retention.
