Discussion on the Pathogenesis, Differentiation and Treatment of Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease based on the Pectoral Qi and Original Qi Theory
This paper discussed the the pathogenesis, differentiation and treatment of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) based on pectoral
qi
and original
qi
theory, so as to provide reference for clinical diagnosis and treatment. It is believed that the main pathogenesis of COPD is lung and spleen
qi
deficiency resulting in pectoral
qi
depletion, and chronic cough and asthma, with the kidneys damaged over time, and thereafter consuming original
qi
; simultaneously, due to the dysfunction of lung, spleen and kidney. There is disordered transportation of the body fluid, and the phlegm, dampness and stasis are generated, obstructing the distribution and nourishment of original
qi
; insufficient original
qi
and weak dispersion aggravate the lung deficiency, and thereby increasing the severity of cough and asthma. With such a vicious cycle, the disease is lingering and difficult to be cured. It is proposed that the treatment of COPD should focus on banking up and reinforcing pectoral and original
qi
, which can promote the well-functioning of the five zang organs, and end the vicious cycle that healthy
qi
deficiency leading to pathogen excess, and pathogen excess promoting healthy
qi
deficiency. When the pectoral
qi
is vigorous, the zang fu organs well function in transportation, and the breathing is properly controlled, there will be appropriate diffusion and purification, and the body fluid is transported, and the
qi
movement is smooth, and finally the phlegm, dampness and stasis are dissolved and dispersed. The method of banking up and reinforcing pectoral and original
qi
mainly includes nourishing, dispersing and activating original
