In Taiwan, there are many people with allergies due to humidity and air pollution. They are easy to sneeze when they wake up, also prone to nasal congestion and runny nose. According to Chinese medicine, the nose is the orifice of the lung, and the nose does not cause its own disease. The cause pollution that causes nasal disease. As the COVID-19 is rampant, if the nasal congestion causes abnormalities in the sense of smell at this time, it may cause panic, and people who are not originally infected with the Covid-19 may be more exposed to the crisis when they come to the hospital or even undergo rapid test or PCR because they are worried about the epidemic; therefore, Chinese medicine doctor Sheng-Pu Lee suggest that people should take proper care of their respiratory system to avoid additional disturbances during the epidemic.
Dr. Sheng-Pu Lee said that the human sense of smell is very sensitive, not only to distinguish different flavors, but also to distinguish the source of the smell, and very sensitive to toxic substances; because the sense of smell is the sensory nerve, and ordinary nerve response is not the same, after inhaling the nasal air in the circulation, the olfactory nerve will feel the air and transfer it to nerve energy; many people will be nasal congestion because their nose nerve temperature is not enough, the nose doesn’t have enough energy and will not be comfortable.
Nasal congestion and sneezing will affect the sense of smell and taste, also the lung will have an impact; Dr. Sheng-Pu Lee pointed out that when nasal congestion happened, because the air can not get to the nose inside, so you can only rely on the mouth to breathe, the nose is blocked, the temperature and air inside will make the nasal mucosa swollen, because the nasal mucosa will have the effect of emitting air, for example, when the temperature is very cold, exhaling will see a smoke and gas, because the temperature in Taiwan is not so low, water vapor can not be seen, and when the temperature is low enough, the nasal mucosa can not only smell the sense of smell, breathing can also help the lung to increase the temperature, so that it does not suffer from cold.
Dr. Sheng-Pu Lee further pointed out that the nose is one of the body’s heat dissipation organs, heat dissipation has two functions, the temperature is enough, then the nose is smooth, not enough temperature will be nasal congestion, inhaling air in to protect the temperature of the lung, if the inhaled air is too dry and too cold, the nose will be cold, and if there is no water vapor, the lung will be injured.
Want to have healthy nose, basically the body temperature and heat dissipation are very important, because water vapor and heat is the anti-gravity, and the human body needs anti-gravity to be healthy and relaxed, the body’s Qi can resist gravity, so people with sufficient Qi, the nose will certainly be smooth, breathing will be smooth, the brain nerve will also be sensitive, this is a very natural response.
When the nasal congestion has a neurological disorder, the air flow is not smooth, and the nasal nerve mucosa has a message pathway obstruction, it will affect the sense of smell. Dr. Sheng-Pu Lee shared that many patients with nasal congestion seek treatment from Chinese medicine practitioners because the nerve conduction in the nasal mucosa is particularly sensitive and close to the brain nerve, which is fast and sensitive to external reactions and differentiation, the nerve in the nose is not only the nerve but also the superficial energy, the nerve membrane is not comfortable enough, the reaction will be blunt and the sense of smell will be lost.
A patient who lost his sense of smell for several years was treated by Dr. Sheng-Pu Lee for six months and regained his sense of smell; Dr. Sheng-Pu Lee emphasized that the treatment of nasal congestion is not only to repair the olfactory nerve, but also to take care of the nerve sheath, he further explained that the membrane of the nerve should be free from compression and should be unobstructed because there is a very special nerve sheath outside the nerve, the nerve sheath should not have pressure, otherwise, once the voltage or qi is not enough, the nerve sheath will be affected and unhealthy.
To keep your nose from getting stuffy, it’s best not to get a cold too often, and once you have a mild cold, you should pay attention to it! Dr. Sheng-Pu Lee suggests that when you have a mild cold, taking detoxifying or Qi-smoothing Chinese medicine can improve it, which can help the body Qi to fight the outside virus, because it can raise the internal pressure to resist the external pressure, and raise the body Qi to resist the six Qi changes outside; for example, going to the high mountains will have pressure changes, there will be headaches, body weakness, heavy head, nasal congestion and other symptoms of high mountains, this is also to raise the body Qi, and Chinese medicine is effective in increasing the body’s Qi.
A patient who had been treated for nasal allergy in Tokyo, Japan, could not get rid of it. After returning to Taiwan to Dr. Sheng-Pu Lee treatment, took two or three days of medication to feel a lot of improvement, but still need to continue treatment with medication to get more progress. Dr. Sheng-Pu Lee emphasized that the respiratory system should pay special attention to temperature, air pressure and Qi field, if the lung function is not enough to regulate changes in air pressure, you can take Chinese medicine to increase the body Qi, resistance to changes in air pressure outside, and is to eat less cold fruit, to maintain the body temperature as normal as possible in order to have sufficient body Qi.
