Treatment of pneumonia? How to treat in TCM?

First: Traditional Chinese medicine point of view: in traditional Chinese medicine, pneumonia belongs to "wind temperature". Most of the reasons are that the lung defense is not solid, wind heat invades the lung from the nose, and even heat stagnation becomes a disease. The main symptoms of pneumonia are usually acute onset, high fever, cough, chest pain, rusty sputum, shortness of breath. All febrile diseases have several stages, such as initial stage, extreme stage, improvement and recovery stage. If the heat turns to cold, the patient will turn from excess to deficiency, so the diet will be different.

Second: easy to eat items: Patients with high fever should eat more cool, plain, moisture, easy to absorb drinks and food, such as juice, rice soup, mung bean soup, lotus root powder, etc. If you don't vomit or have diarrhea, you can eat some liquid meat, such as lean meat and pig liver; soup, such as fresh vegetable soup, in order to strengthen nutrition and promote recovery. If you just have an appetite, you can eat some semi liquid food, such as: porridge; soft noodles, puree, color mud, etc. Just recovered after the disease, you can eat Lily soup or water chestnut, sugarcane juice and other warm clothes.

Third: diet: onion, leek, spicy, greasy, cold, multi fiber, indigestible food.
