Three Exterior pathogens causing cough | Wind Cold, Wind Heat, Wind Dryness |
Four Interior Excess patterns (Repletion) causing cough | Lung Heat, Phlegm Heat in Lung, Phlegm Damp in Lung, Liver (Fire) Attack Lung |
Two Interior Deficiency patterns (Vacuities) causing cough | Lung Yin Vacuity, Lung Qi Vacuity |
Point prescription for Cough d/t Wind-Cold | LI4 (Release the Exterior), LU7 (Dispel Wind Cold), Ren 17 (cough), UB13 (BS), (moxa) LU1 (FM), (moxa) R12 (where LU meridian begins) |
Point prescription for Cough d/t Wind-Heat | LI4 (Release the Exterior), LU5 (Water point, clears heat and transforms yellow phlegm), LU10 (b/c of sore throat, also Ying Spring, so clears LU heat), GB20 (Wind Pool), Du14 (Clear Heat) |
Point prescription for Cough d/t Wind-Dryness | LI4 (Release the Exterior). LU5 (Water point), Ren 17 (cough), UB13/LU1 (BS/FM), SP6 (San Yin), K6 (Kidney Yin). Not sure why he adds UB23. Maybe because KD is water? |
Point prescription for Cough d/t Heat in the Lung | LI4 (Clear Heat), LI11 (Clear Heat), ("bleed") Du14 (Clear Heat). LU10 (Ying Spring, so clear heat). Ren 17 (cough). He says ST44... makes little sense. |
Point prescription for Cough d/t Phlegm Heat (Repletion) | LI4 (Release Exterior), LU5 (Clears heat from lung, transforms yellow phlegm). LU10 (Ying Spring). LU1/UB13 (FM/BS).

Point prescription for Cough d/t Phlegm Damp (Repletion) | MOXA!!! ST36 and Ren 12 (both FM for Fu organs as well as origin of Lung meridian). SP9 +/- SP3 for damp and strengthen Spleen. ST40 for Phlegm. LU1/UB13/UB20. LU7 (Warm the lung?) Ren 17 (cough) |
Point prescription for Cough d/t Liver (Fire) Attacking Lung | LI4 (Soothe LR qi?), LR2 (Sedate the LR), UB13/UB18 (BS). LU1/LR14 (FM). Then he says to "pick one" of: LU9, LU10, LU5. |
Point prescription for Cough d/t Lung Yin Vacuity (Deficiency) | He says combine LU7 with K6 to "open up the Ren Mai." LU5 (water point on LU channel). SP6 (San Yin). Ren 17 (cough). And Yuan Guan (Origin Pass), Ren 4, which non-specifically tonifies the KD. Also, "eat 2-3 pears a day." |
Point prescription for Cough d/t Lung Qi Vacuity (Deficiency) | LU9 (YSP), ST36, SP3 (!). Ren 17 (cough). UB13/UB20. Ren 12. Ren 6!! |
