[Pathogenesis] Body fluids, nasal discharge, and saliva become dry when exposed to heat, and flow uncontrollably without self-restraint when exposed to cold. The Lung Meridian connects with the nose. If there is cold in the Lung Zang, the cold follows the Qi upward to invade the nasal orifice, causing body fluids and nasal discharge to be uncontrollable. (From Volume 29)

[Pathogenesis] The nose is the external manifestation of the Lung; Lung Qi communicates with the nose. If there is heat in the Lung Zang, the hot Qi rushes to the nose, thus causing sores. *Yangsheng Fang Daoyin Fa* states: Sit in a squatting position, bring knees together and spread feet apart, hold breath five times, which treats nasal sores. (From Volume 29)
