How to treat pulmonary bullae in traditional Chinese Medicine

summary

Pulmonary bullae is undoubtedly a very dangerous disease. It is a serious disease in the respiratory system. The great harm of this disease may induce pneumonia and bronchitis. So must be treated in time, the following with me to understand the best method of TCM treatment of pulmonary bullae.

How to treat pulmonary bullae in traditional Chinese Medicine

First, pulmonary bullae are usually secondary to inflammatory lesions of bronchioles, such as pneumonia, emphysema and tuberculosis. Due to inflammatory lesions and edema of small bronchial mucosa, the lumen is partially blocked, resulting in valve effect. Air can enter the alveoli and is not easy to discharge, resulting in increased pressure in the alveoli. Under normal conditions, there is collateral respiration between the alveoli. Although there is partial bronchial obstruction, the pressure in the alveoli is not too high. However, in the inflammatory state, the lung tissue is also damaged, the collateral respiration between the alveoli disappears, and the alveolar septum gradually ruptures due to the increase of pressure in the alveoli, resulting in the formation of a huge air sac containing cavity, which is called pulmonary bulla clinically.

Second: pulmonary bullae secondary to pneumonia or lung abscess are more common in infants, there are single or multiple. Secondary to pulmonary tuberculosis is mostly single, there is no obvious emphysema at the same time. Secondary to emphysema, often multiple, in addition to bullae, often accompanied by most vesicles. The wall of pulmonary bullae is very thin, which is composed of flat epithelial cells of alveoli, or only fibrous membrane. The bullae can occupy one side of the chest, compress the adjacent lung tissue, and even push the mediastinum to the opposite side. If the pressure in the alveoli increases and breaks into the pleural cavity, a part of the wall of the bulla is composed of the pleura. The bulla formed in this way is called subpleural bulla. In addition, some bullae are small in volume and often form Beaded shape at the edge of lung lobes, which are clinically called pulmonary bullae and can often coexist with giant bullae. Whether bullae or vesicles, if there is rupture, then produce the so-called spontaneous pneumothorax.

Third, if the bullae are single and have little tension, the clinical symptoms may not be significant. But if at the same time have extensive emphysema or multiple bullae, often cough, chest tightness, shortness of breath and other symptoms. Large bullae, with high tension in the bullae, often have dyspnea to varying degrees. As a result, some patients lose labor force and even have limited mobility. Severe emphysema complicated with pulmonary bullae can promote the occurrence of pulmonary heart disease, or aggravate the development of pulmonary heart disease.

matters needing attention

Magnetic medicine superposition has made a major breakthrough in the treatment of common, frequently occurring and difficult lung diseases in traditional Chinese medicine. In clinical application, it has won the praise of patients and their families for its exact curative effect and low cost. In many professional academic exchanges, it has won the high recognition of peers in the industry for its unique dialectical point of view and diagnosis and treatment techniques. This therapy has been integrated into thousands of years of traditional Chinese medicine Essence, under the guidance of the theory of basic acupoints, comprehensive treatment is carried out by means of "pulling, fumigating, baking, needling and sticking". The principle of treatment is green (no damage to other organs' functions) and nature (according to the law of natural change, the five zang organs, Yin and Yang). This therapy is a perfect interpretation of the theory of syndrome differentiation and treatment, that is, according to the physical characteristics and symptoms of each patient, different acupoints and prescriptions are selected and different treatment schemes are formulated.
