The child's nasal discharge is non-stop, and if you want to cure rhinitis, you must first replenish yang qi!
Hello everyone, I'm Pediatrician Le Qin
Now the weather is cold in the morning and evening, and hot at noon, and the children's clothes are also taken off, put on and take off, and they will be easy to catch a cold when they come and go. There are also children who already have rhinitis problems, and this section of nasal discharge is even more non-stop. In addition to the normal prescribing of medications, I often tell parents to learn to give their children
The more yang qi is sufficient, the stronger the human body will be, on the contrary, if the yang qi is insufficient, the human body will have various weakness and diseases.
As far as rhinitis is concerned, most children's snot is like a faucet that can't be turned off, and they can't stop wiping it, in fact, because the cold in the body is too heavy. The cold air like the body prompts the body to expel "watery and wet mucus." ”
Patient Cases
I have been in contact with such a small patient, rhinitis, sneezing, runny nose for many years, and the most important thing is that the nose is not breathable and the nasal congestion is severe. At night, when the child sleeps, he breathes almost exclusively through his mouth. I usually have tissues in my pockets all the time, but my nasal passages are full of snot just after a few minutes.
Parents describe Chinese medicine and Western medicine, almost all the methods that can be used have been used, but the situation is repeated, in recent years, many nasal sprays will be prepared for children, and after use, the nasal discharge can temporarily stop like a scab for a while. But this is not the way to go. Later, after passing through many halls, I overheard about me, and specially brought my children to come to me by high-speed train.
The child had severe nasal congestion on both sides and coughed up white phlegm. The palms of the hands and feet are cold, and the rhinitis will be severe when the season changes or when the cold is cold. Mentally sleepy, always yelling about headaches, not wanting to go to school, saying that he doesn't have the strength.
Combined with the child's situation, this child is actually what I said above, the lack of yang energy in the body, and the rhinitis caused by the cold invading the lungs.
I wrote him a plan for the treatment of rhinitis: internal Chinese medicine + external Chinese medicine nasal fumigation + acupoint application
Formulas of Chinese medicine for internal use: Astragalus membranaceus, fried atractylodes, Poria cocos, parsnip, Codonopsis, Dendrobium, tangerine peel, Banxia, cimicifuga, bellflower, Bupleurum chinensis, Xinyi flower, boiled licorice. Formal ancient jade screen scattered two Chen soup plus flavor.
At the age of 10, the child's mother called to say that the child's nasal congestion had been reduced and the breathing was not so heavy. The frequency of runny nose seems to have decreased a little.
After the follow-up visit, according to the child's current condition, add the medicine to dissolve phlegm and disperse the condensation, and continue to take it. After two months, the child can breathe smoothly, and there is only a little bit of nasal discharge, and then tell the parents to calm down and use Chinese medicine to consolidate the child for a period of time, and enhance the child's physique, so that rhinitis will not recur again and again. Up to now, the child has been off medication for a year and 5 months, and rhinitis has never been committed again.
Lazy cold: movement is yang, stillness is yin, life lies in movement, this child does not like to move, the ability to run qi and blood is weak, and the function of internal organs is weakened, and the cold is born from within.
External cold: During the consultation, the child's mother recalled that the child seemed to have started rhinitis after returning from climbing a mountain and catching a cold.
Blowing out of the cold: Now the weather is getting hotter and hotter, especially in summer, the body's own heat will disperse the cold, and the cold air blown out by the air conditioner will cause the body to alternate between cold and heat, so it is easy for the cold to enter the body.
Although the problem of children's rhinitis has been solved, I still tell the child's mother to pay attention to "replenishing yang qi" for the child at ordinary times.
1. Let your child soak his feet more
Soaking in hot water can well alleviate the cold hands and feet of children and improve their own yang energy;
2. Let your child bask in the sun
Insist on basking in the sun for a long time, especially you can dry your back more, half an hour - 3 hours each time. It can make the body produce pure yang qi, and finally achieve the effect of replenishing yang qi;
3. Let your children exercise outdoors more
"Stillness is yin, movement is yang", appropriate exercise can make yang energy run better in the body, which is beneficial to children's bone development.
4. Give your child food supplements
Children with insufficient yang energy can eat more warm foods, such as: mutton, beef, red dates, wolfberries, etc. Follow the rules of spring and summer to nourish yang, and eat less raw and cold food.
