耳部疾病，是由于浊阴之气不能下降所致。耳朵是冲虚之官（指耳窍清虚通畅），必须阴气下降、浊气下沉，耳窍才能声音传入且通畅无阻。如果浊阴之气上逆，甲木（胆经/少阳相火）不降，相火郁结而爆发，就会形成热肿。木邪相互冲突则导致疼痛，木气堵塞则导致听力减退（重听）。久而久之，气血郁滞阻塞，肌肉腐烂溃破，就会形成痈脓。然而，浊阴之不降，根本原因在于戊土（胃/阳明燥土）的中气运行不畅。应当调理中焦之气，使浊气下降、清气上升，耳病自然痊愈。例如，耳内出现热肿疼痛的，以柴胡芍药茯苓汤为主治方剂。例如，耳内流出黄水的，以苓泽芍药汤为主治方剂。例如，听力逐渐减退的，以参茯五味芍药汤为主治方剂。

鼻部疾病，是手太阴肺经之气不清爽所致。肺开窍于鼻，宗气（积聚于胸中之大气）由此出入并进行呼吸运动。必须肺气肃降且气息清爽，鼻窍才能宣通而不窒塞。如果肺气上逆不降，则宗气壅滞阻塞，鼻塞流涕的疾病就会发作。大概肺主皮毛，如果外感风寒，导致皮毛毛孔闭塞，肺气不得宣发，冲击鼻窍，就会引发喷嚏。熏蒸鼻窍，就会流出清涕。时间久了，清涕会转化为浊涕，导致滞塞且粘稠。再久一些，白涕会转化为黄涕，气味臭败且秽恶。如果长期不愈，颜色和气味都像脓液，那么鼻痈的疾病就形成了。如果中气不运，肺金壅满，即使没有感受风寒，但浊涕不时下流的，这就是所谓的鼻渊。追究其根本原因，总归是由土湿胃逆，浊气填塞于上部，导致肺没有下降的路径。例如，肺气郁结上逆，鼻塞且鼻涕多的，以桔梗元参汤为主治方剂。例如，肺热导致鼻塞、浊涕粘稠发黄的，以五味石膏汤为主治方剂。例如，鼻孔发热生疮的，以黄芩贝母汤为主治方剂。例如，鼻塞、声音沉重、语言不清的，以苓泽姜苏汤为主治方剂。

Diseases of the ear are caused by the failure of turbid Yin to descend. The ear is an organ of void and rush (referring to the clear and open nature of the auditory orifice); it requires the descent of Yin and the sinking of turbidity for sound to enter and pass through smoothly. If turbid Yin rebels upward, and Jia Wood (Shaoyang Gallbladder/Gallbladder Channel) fails to descend, the Ministerial Fire becomes stagnant and erupts, resulting in heat-induced swelling. Conflict between Wood pathogens causes pain; stagnation of Wood Qi leads to hearing impairment (deafness/heaviness). Over time, Qi and Blood become stagnant and obstructed, muscles rot and ulcerate, forming carbuncles and pus. However, the failure of turbid Yin to descend is fundamentally due to the dysfunction of the central Qi within Wu Earth (Stomach/Yangming Dry Earth). It is appropriate to regulate the middle Jiao Qi, causing turbidity to descend and clarity to ascend, so that ear diseases heal spontaneously. For instance, if there is heat and swelling with pain inside the ear, Chaihu Shaoyao Fuling Tang (Bupleurum, Peony, and Poria Decoction) should be primarily used. If yellow fluid flows from the ear, Lingze Shaoyao Tang (Poria, Alisma, and Peony Decoction) should be primarily used. If hearing gradually declines, Shenfu Wuwei Shaoyao Tang (Ginseng, Poria, Schisandra, and Peony Decoction) should be primarily used.

Diseases of the nose are caused by the lack of clarity in the Hand-Taiyin Lung Meridian. The Lung opens into the nose, which is the passage for Zong Qi (Gathering Qi) to enter and exit for respiration. It is necessary for Lung Qi to descend and for the breath to be clear, so that the nasal orifice remains patent and unobstructed. If Lung Qi rebels and fails to descend, Zong Qi becomes congested and obstructed, leading to symptoms such as nasal congestion and rhinorrhea. Generally, the Lung governs the skin and hair; if external Wind-Cold invades and closes the pores, Lung Qi cannot diffuse. This agitation impacts the nasal orifice, causing sneezing. Its steaming effect on the nasal orifice produces clear discharge. Over time, clear discharge transforms into turbid discharge, causing blockage and stickiness. Further prolonged stagnation turns white discharge into yellow discharge, which becomes foul-smelling and repulsive. If unresolved for a long time, with color and odor resembling pus, a nasal carbuncle disease forms. If the Middle Qi fails to circulate and Lung Metal becomes full and congested, even without external Wind-Cold invasion, but with frequent flow of turbid discharge, this is referred to as Bi Yuan (Nasal Sinusitis/Nasal Polyps). Investigating its root cause, it ultimately stems from Dampness in Earth and Rebellion of Stomach Qi, where turbid Qi fills the upper body, leaving no path for Lung Qi to descend. For instance, if Lung Qi is stagnant and rises, causing nasal congestion and excessive discharge, Jiegeng Yuanshen Tang (Platycodon and Scrophularia Decoction) should be primarily used. If Lung Heat causes nasal congestion with sticky, yellow turbid discharge, Wuwei Shigao Tang (Schisandra and Gypsum Decoction) should be primarily used. If the nostrils feel hot and develop sores, Huangqin Beimu Tang (Scutellaria and Fritillaria Decoction) should be primarily used. If nasal congestion causes heavy voice and unclear speech, Lingze Jiangsu Tang (Poria, Alisma, Ginger, and Perilla Decoction) should be primarily used.
