Intractable cough
The patient, Mr. Li, male, 45 years old, had been suffering from a persistent cough for four years following a COVID-19 infection. The cough was severe and occurred even at night, with a large amount of phlegm. Western medicine treatments were ineffective. Initially unfamiliar with the effectiveness of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM), he was referred to our clinic by a friend.
Upon examination, he was diagnosed with a cough caused by spleen deficiency and damp-phlegm accumulation. Treatment involved acupuncture and Chinese herbal medicine to strengthen the spleen, eliminate dampness, resolve phlegm, and stop the cough. After one session of acupuncture and one week of herbal treatment, the cough was significantly relieved, although night-time coughing and thick phlegm persisted.
Acupuncture continued, and the herbal formula was adjusted to enhance phlegm-resolving and cough-relieving effects. Upon follow-up one week later, the therapeutic effect was remarkable. The patient was very pleased and amazed by the miraculous results of traditional Chinese medicine.
