一. Common Respiratory Issues & Symptoms
常见呼吸道问题与症状表现
Persistent respiratory discomfort is common, yet many are unaware that TCM offers systematic management. Common conditions we treat include:
呼吸道不适很常见，但许多人不知道中医能提供系统性的调理。我们常调理的问题包括：
1.Rhinitis & Sinusitis (鼻炎与鼻窦炎)
Symptoms: Nasal congestion, runny nose (clear or coloured), loss of smell, facial pressure or headache, post-nasal drip.
症状：鼻塞、流涕（清或浊）、嗅觉减退、面部压迫感或头痛、鼻后滴漏。
2.Allergic Rhinitis (过敏性鼻炎)
Symptoms: Sudden sneezing attacks, itchy nose/eyes/throat, profuse clear watery discharge, often triggered by allergens, cold air, or mornings.
症状：阵发性喷嚏、鼻/眼/喉发痒、流大量清涕，常由过敏原、冷空气或清晨触发。
3.Chronic Cough (慢性咳嗽)
Symptoms: Cough lasting >3 weeks, dry or with phlegm, often worse at night, when lying down, or talking; throat irritation or tickle.
症状：咳嗽持续>3周，干咳或有痰，常在夜间、平躺或说话时加重；咽喉不适或发痒。
4.Recurrent Colds (反复感冒)
Symptoms: Catching colds easily with slow recovery; symptoms include chills, fatigue, sore throat, and body aches.
症状：易感冒且恢复慢；症状包括怕冷、疲劳、喉咙痛和身体酸痛。
These issues affect more than breathing—they impact sleep, energy, concentration, and overall quality of life.
这些问题不仅影响呼吸，更会干扰睡眠、精力、专注力和整体生活质量。
二、Why Do Respiratory Issues Occur?
呼吸道问题的成因：中医与现代医学视角
Traditional Chinese Medicine Perspective
In TCM, respiratory health is governed by the Lungs, which control Qi and defensive energy (Wei Qi), and are supported by the Spleen (source of Qi) and Kidneys (root of Qi).
中医观点
中医认为，呼吸道健康由肺主导，肺主气、司卫外；并由脾（气血生化之源）与肾（气之根）提供支持。
Lung Qi Deficiency (肺气虚): Weakens defensive energy, making one vulnerable to wind, cold, and pathogens, leading to frequent infections.
肺气虚：卫外不固，易受风、寒、病邪侵袭，导致频繁感染。
Spleen Deficiency with Damp-Phlegm (脾虚生痰湿): Poor diet or digestion generates dampness/phlegm, which accumulates in the lungs and sinuses, causing congestion and mucus.
脾虚生痰湿：饮食或消化不佳生湿生痰，上贮于肺与鼻窦，导致鼻塞痰多。
Kidney Yang Deficiency (肾阳虚): Fails to warm and support the Lungs, resulting in chronic cold intolerance, wheezing, and stubborn conditions.
肾阳虚：无法温煦肺脏，导致长期怕冷、气喘和顽固性疾病。
Modern Medical Perspective
Modern medicine links these to allergies (immune hypersensitivity), infections, structural issues (deviated septum), or chronic inflammation. Singapore's environment—high humidity, allergens, and constant air-conditioning—acts as a major trigger.
现代医学视角
现代医学将其归因于过敏（免疫过敏）、感染、结构性问题（鼻中隔偏曲）或慢性炎症。新加坡的环境——高湿度、过敏原和长期空调环境——是主要诱因。
