Discussion states: The *Neijing* (Inner Canon) describes the symptoms of Lung Cough as coughing with wheezing and audible sounds, and in severe cases, spitting blood. The symptoms of Heart Cough include coughing accompanied by heart pain, and a sensation of obstruction in the throat, feeling like something is stuck. In severe cases, it leads to sore throat and glottal obstruction. The symptoms of Liver Cough involve coughing with pain under both hypochondria; in severe cases, the body cannot turn, and turning causes fullness under both sides. The symptoms of Spleen Cough manifest as coughing with pain in the right hypochondrium, radiating to the shoulder and back; in severe cases, movement is restricted, and movement exacerbates the cough. The symptoms of Kidney Cough present as coughing with pulling pain between the waist and back; in severe cases, saliva is coughed up.
