痰涎等各类证候，不胜枚举。唯有劳瘵（肺结核类消耗性疾病）伴有痰者最难治疗，最适合艾灸膏肓穴。施灸壮数既多，应当会有液体排出，呈现如流水般的状态，这即是痰液下行排出的表现。我应当根据具体证候进行治疗。大凡人患水疰（一种以口中涌水为特征的疾病），口中不断涌出清水，医经称之为肺金乘袭肾水。饭后吐水，可艾灸肺俞穴。又加灸三阴交、期门穴，以泻肺补肾。各穴施灸壮数依患者年龄而定。既然痰涎有类似此类的情况，也应当采用这种灸法治疗。

The syndromes related to phlegm and saliva are numerous and varied. Among them, phlegm associated with Lao Zhai [Consumption Disease/Tuberculosis] is the most difficult to treat. It is most suitable to apply moxibustion to the Gaohuang (BL43) acupoint. After sufficient moxa cones are applied, there should be an exudate, appearing like flowing water; this indicates the downward expulsion of phlegm. I shall then treat according to the specific symptoms. Generally, when people suffer from Shui Zhu [Water-Dampness Affliction] characterized by gushing saliva in the mouth, the classics refer to this as Lung Metal overacting on Kidney Water. For postprandial vomiting of water, one may moxa the Feishu (BL13) acupoint. Additionally, moxa Sanyinjiao (SP6) and Qimen (LR14) to drain the Lung and tonify the Kidney. The number of moxa cones for each point should correspond to the patient's age. Since some phlegm-saliva conditions resemble this pattern, they should also be treated using this moxibustion method.
