The Lung belongs to Metal in the Five Elements, corresponds to Autumn externally, and governs the skin and hair. Physical cold exposure or consumption of cold drinks/food damages the Lung; it prefers warmth and dislikes cold. If affected by Cold pathogen, the skin and hair are first afflicted; if failure occurs in releasing the exterior (表散), Cold transmits into the Lung Meridian, generating Cough (Ke Sou). "Ke" refers to sound without phlegm, caused by Lung Qi damage and lack of clarity; "Sou" refers to phlegm without sound, caused by Spleen dampness generating phlegl. One must understand the four seasons to apply tonification or purgation. For instance, in Autumn when the Lung Meridian is flourishing, cough illness is likely Excess. Symptoms include red face, body heat, and abundant saliva/phlegm; the method requires descending phlegm, prioritizing fire reduction. Winter cough presents with headache, body heat, dry mouth, and nasal congestion, indicating Cold injury. Medications should primarily use Pungent dispersants. Thus it is said: Mild cases are Wind Injury, severe cases are Cold sensation. Differentiation by pulse and symptoms is essential. Shanghan (Cold Damage) presents with dirty complexion and tight-rapid pulse; Fengshang (Wind Injury) presents with red face and floating-slow pulse. Generally, Heat is drained, Cold is dispersed, Excess is purged, Deficiency is tonified. Dispersing requires Pungent-Sweet herbs;涌泄 (vomiting/purging) depends on Sour-Bitter herbs. Treatment varies by symptoms, making fixed formulas difficult to adhere to; tonification, purgation, and unblocking require strict caution in prescription.
