《诸病源候论》说：咳嗽，是肺受到寒邪侵袭所致，轻微的就形成咳嗽。肺主气，与皮毛相合，邪气初伤人体，先客于皮毛，导致喘息有声音；严重的则咳唾带血；若逢夏季，心受邪，心咳的症状，咳嗽时心痛，喉咙感觉像被异物梗塞，严重的咽喉肿痛、喉痹；若逢春季，肝受邪，肝咳的症状，两胁下疼痛，严重时身体不能转动，两脚胀满；若逢长夏（至阴之时），脾受邪，脾咳的症状，咳嗽时右胁下疼痛，隐隐牵引背部，严重时不能活动，一动就咳嗽；若逢冬季，肾受邪，肾咳的症状，咳嗽时腰背相互牵引而痛，严重时咳出涎沫。这是五脏的咳嗽。五脏咳嗽日久不愈，会传变给六腑。脾咳嗽久不愈，胃受邪，胃咳的症状，咳嗽并呕吐，呕吐严重时蛔虫吐出；肝咳嗽久不愈，胆受邪，胆咳的症状，呕吐胆汁；肺咳嗽久不愈，大肠受邪，大肠咳的症状，咳嗽并大便失禁；心咳嗽久不愈，小肠受邪，小肠咳的症状，咳嗽并放屁，排气与咳嗽同时发生；肾咳嗽久不愈，膀胱受邪，膀胱咳的症状，咳嗽并遗尿；久咳不愈，三焦受邪，三焦咳的症状，咳嗽且腹部胀满，不想饮食，这些病证都聚集在胃，关联于肺，使人多涕唾且面部浮肿，气机上逆。
《千金方》说：有人问：咳嗽病有十种，是什么？医生说：有风咳，有寒咳，有支咳，有肝咳，有心咳……（原文此处有缺漏或错简，无法完整翻译后续具体分类及“异？”等残缺文字）。

According to *Zhu Bing Yuan Hou Lun* (Treatise on the Pathogenesis and Symptoms of All Diseases): Cough is caused by the lung being affected by cold pathogen. If mild, it results in cough. The Lung governs Qi and is connected with the skin and hair. When pathogens first invade, they initially lodge in the skin and hair, causing wheezing with audible sounds; if severe, it leads to spitting blood. In summer, the Heart is affected; symptoms of Heart Cough include pain in the heart region during coughing, a sensation of obstruction in the throat as if something were stuck, and in severe cases, sore throat and throat bi-syndrome. In spring, the Liver is affected; symptoms of Liver Cough include pain under both hypochondria, inability to turn the body in severe cases, and fullness in both lower limbs. During the late summer (the time of extreme Yin), the Spleen is affected; symptoms of Spleen Cough include pain under the right hypochondrium radiating to the back, inability to move in severe cases, and exacerbation of cough upon movement. In winter, the Kidney is affected; symptoms of Kidney Cough include pulling pain between the waist and back, and spitting of saliva in severe cases. These are the five Zang-organ coughs. If cough from the five Zang organs persists for a long time without healing, it transmits to the six Fu organs. Unhealed Spleen Cough affects the Stomach; symptoms of Stomach Cough include coughing with vomiting, and expulsion of roundworms if vomiting is severe. Unhealed Liver Cough affects the Gallbladder; symptoms of Gallbladder Cough include vomiting of bile. Unhealed Lung Cough affects the Large Intestine; symptoms of Large Intestine Cough include coughing with fecal incontinence. Unhealed Heart Cough affects the Small Intestine; symptoms of Small Intestine Cough include coughing with flatus, occurring simultaneously with coughing. Unhealed Kidney Cough affects the Bladder; symptoms of Bladder Cough include coughing with urinary incontinence. Long-standing cough affecting the Sanjiao (Triple Burner) presents with coughing, abdominal fullness, and loss of appetite. These conditions all gather in the Stomach and relate to the Lung, causing excessive phlegm and saliva, facial edema, and rebellious Qi.
*Qianjin Fang* (Essential Prescriptions Worth a Thousand Gold) states: Someone asked, "There are ten types of cough diseases, what are they?" The Master said, "There are Wind Cough, Cold Cough, Branch Cough, Liver Cough, Heart Cough..." (The text here contains lacunae or textual corruption, making the subsequent classification incomplete).
*Seng Shen Fang* (Prescriptions of Monk Shen) states: Hot Cough produces sticky sputum resembling maltose syrup; Cold Cough produces clear sputum like water.
*Yi Men Fang* (Medical Gate Prescriptions) states: Cough in wine drinkers inevitably leads to hemoptysis, caused by prolonged sitting and excessive drinking; this is difficult to treat.
*Ji Yao Fang* (Essential Prescriptions) states: This disease has several types: Cold-Heat Cough, Lung Atrophy Cough, Lung Abscess Cough, and Water-Qi Cough. If one has a non-heat nature cough... (text missing)... shortness of breath, abdominal distension and stuffiness. In severe cases, there is a sensation of Qi rushing to the head and face, and general edema of the body; this is Water-Qi Cough.
*Ge Shi Fang* (Prescriptions of Ge) states: Upper Qi asthma with cough, shoulder breathing, inability to lie flat, cold extremities, and facial edema indicate a fatal prognosis.
*Seng Shen Fang* Zi Wan Wan (Aster Pill), treating cough with upper Qi, wheezing, and excessive sputum:

These five herbs are processed into pills the size of mulberry seeds. Take 3 pills before meals, three times daily.
Another prescription: Make pills the size of cherries. Hold one pill in the mouth and slowly swallow the juice, three times daily. For both new and chronic coughs where the patient cannot lie down day or night, and hears a sound like a water frog in the throat indicating critical condition, use this method.
*Luo Yan Fang* (Verified Prescriptions) Xiao Zi Wan Wan (Small Aster Pill), treating upper Qi, nighttime rebellious cough with abundant turbid sputum:

Eleven ingredients are crushed, sifted, mixed with honey, and formed into pills the size of mulberry seeds. Take 5 pills per dose, twice daily. At night, hold one pill the size of an apricot kernel in the mouth and swallow the juice; repeat during the day.
*Cheng Zu Fang* (Prescriptions of Cheng Zu) Xing Ren Wan (Apricot Kernel Pill) for treating upper Qi and cough:
Xing Ren (Semen Pruni Armeniacae) (1 sheng, roasted), Gan Jiang (Rhizoma Zingiberis Preparatum) (2 liang), Xi Xin (Herba Asari) (2 liang), Zi Wan (Radix Asteris) (2 liang), Gui Xin (Cinnamomi Ramulus) (2 liang).
Crush and sift. Process Xing Ren separately into a paste. Mix with honey and form pills the size of a jujube pit. Take one pill three times daily.
*Guang Ji Fang* (Broad Salvation Prescriptions) Gui Xin San (Cinnamon Twig Powder) for treating dry throat, cough, and aphonia:
Gui Xin (Cinnamomi Ramulus) (6 liang), Xing Ren (Semen Pruni Armeniacae) (3 liang).
Crush and sift. Wrap in cotton cloth a amount the size of a jujube pit. Hold in the mouth and slowly swallow the juice, three times daily and twice at night. Avoid raw green onions and greasy foods.

Also says: Tou Bei Tang (Throw Cup Decoction) treats chronic cough with upper Qi, cold in the chest, inability to eat or drink, restlessness in bed requiring support to rise, and a water-frog-like sound in the throat...
Kuan Dong Hua (Flos Farfarae) [40 pieces (another version 20 pieces)], Xi Xin (Herba Asari) (1 liang), Zi Wan (Radix Asteris) [2 liang (another version 1 liang)], Gan Cao (Radix Glycyrrhizae Preparata) [2 liang (another version 3 liang)].
Ten ingredients are cut, boiled in 8 sheng of water until reduced to 2 sheng. Take before meals, at a comfortable temperature, divided into two doses. Cover warmly to induce sweating, then recover. (Note: *Luo Yan Fang* records: Ma Huang (Herba Ephedrae) 3 liang, Gan Cao (Radix Glycyrrhizae Preparata) 3 liang, Xing Ren (Semen Pruni Armeniacae) 100 pieces.
