When it comes to children's rhinitis, many parents sigh: It's too difficult to treat! Nebulization, taking medicine, washing the nose, tossing around, not to mention the ineffect, some children have even aggravated the symptoms of rhinitis.
In fact, in the view of traditional Chinese medicine, the treatment of rhinitis must find the root cause, and the treatment of syndrome differentiation will be effective.
For example, if your child has nasal congestion, runny nose, nasal itching, sneezing, coughing, wheezing, chest tightness and other symptoms, it may be rhinitis caused by lung and kidney yang deficiency.
We folk often say that "people live one breath", and this qi is yang energy.
For children, Yang Qi is a source of energy to promote growth and development, maintain the activity of internal organs, and resist the invasion of external evils.
If the child's yang energy is insufficient, especially in the lungs and kidneys, then his resistance to wind and cold evil qi is weak, and he has to sneeze and runny nose if he is slightly disturbed;
In addition, yang deficiency in the lungs and kidneys will lead to phlegm and dampness that is not warm, which is like a puddle of water on the ground, when the sun is big and the yang energy is sufficient, it will soon be evaporated, if the yang energy is insufficient, it will stay there for a long time, causing the child to have rhinitis, cough, and stuffiness.
How to use the two herbs well?
Now that it is clear that the child's rhinitis is a deficiency of yang in the lungs and kidneys, which leads to the invasion of wind and cold and the phlegm and dampness, it is easy to deal with, and it can be easily handled with angelica and cinnamon!
Angelica Angelica is a particularly interesting herb, as it is a good companion for the lungs.
For wind and dampness, its ability to dissipate wind and dampness is an out-and-out "cold noodle killer".
If the child has an external wind evil, or phlegm and dampness, Angelica dahurica can play a good role.
Let's talk about cinnamon, it is a big warm man, its taste is spicy and sweet, hot, into the kidney meridian, especially good at adding firewood to the kidney fire, and replenishing the kidney yang to be prosperous;
In addition, cinnamon also has a trick to dispel cold and relieve pain, which is specifically aimed at the cold evil in the body. When the child's kidneys are yang, the lungs will naturally warm up, and the phlegm and dampness caused by the wind and cold will be melted away, and the nasal congestion and runny nose will be solved.
You see, Angelica Angelica and Cinnamon cooperate with each other, like a pair of golden partners, warming the kidneys and lungs on the one hand, and dispeling wind, cold, dampness, and evil qi; While opening up the nasal passages and relieving the symptoms of rhinitis, it is perfect for children with lung and kidney yang deficiency.
How to tell if a child has lung and kidney yang deficiency?
At this time, the problem comes, you have been talking for a long time, how do I know if the child is deficient in lung and kidney yang? Then let's briefly talk about the common symptoms of children with lung and kidney yang deficiency.
1. Most of the nasal discharge of children with lung and kidney yang deficiency is watery, and the symptoms of rhinitis will be more obvious in the cold, morning and evening.
2. Dry and itchy nose, severe nasal congestion, and poor breathing.
3. The child is afraid of cold, and his hands and feet are much cooler than those of his peers, and his complexion is pale.
4. Due to lung and kidney yang deficiency, children may experience shortness of breath, lazy speech, lack of energy, and fatigue.
5. Some children may have a feeling of soreness in the waist and knees, which is a manifestation of insufficient kidney yang.
6. Lack of lung yang leads to lung qi deficiency, and children may also have wheezing and chest tightness.
Nowadays, there are more and more children with rhinitis, and I see that many parents are actively learning about Chinese medicine and rhinitis, which makes me feel very happy and worried.
I am happy because parents pay attention to the problem of rhinitis in their children, and they are worried because some parents use drugs indiscriminately without differentiating the syndrome for their children.
Traditional Chinese medicine pays attention to syndrome differentiation and treatment, one person and one party, and indiscriminate use of drugs to treat rhinitis is not good to say, but it is easy to hurt the child's viscera, and the future troubles are endless.
