In classical TCM texts, nasal sensitivity is discussed as part of broader pattern frameworks.
In the Shang Han Lun, a Taiyang passage notes: “Nasal sounds and dry retching—Gui Zhi Tang is referenced. / 鼻鳴乾嘔,桂枝湯主之。”
This reflects a traditional view linking nasal discharge, sneezing, and digestive discomfort within the same pattern context.
Gui Zhi Tang is often discussed as a core formula emphasizing balance rather than isolated symptoms.
