《黄帝内经》中说:久咳不愈,病邪会传入三焦。三焦咳嗽的症状是咳嗽伴有腹部胀满,不想进食饮水。这些症状都是因为病邪聚集在胃,关联于肺,导致人体多涕唾且面部浮肿、气机上逆。大概三焦之气以胃气为根本,是水谷运行的道路,也是气机终结和起始的地方。如今咳嗽日久,是因为寒气蕴结,波及胃中,所以出现腹部胀满、不思饮食,气逆上行,导致涕唾增多且面目虚浮。

The *Huangdi Neijing* (Yellow Emperor's Inner Canon) states: If chronic cough persists without resolution, the disease pathogen will transmit to the Sanjiao (Triple Burner). The presentation of Sanjiao cough includes coughing accompanied by abdominal fullness and a lack of desire to eat or drink. These symptoms arise because the pathogenic factors gather in the Stomach and affect the Lung, causing excessive phlegm and saliva, facial edema, and rebellious Qi movement. Generally, the Qi of the Sanjiao is rooted in Stomach Qi; it serves as the pathway for water and grain and is the beginning and end of Qi circulation. Now, if coughing persists for a long time, it is due to the accumulation and knotting of Cold pathogens, which spread to the Middle Jiao (Stomach), resulting in abdominal fullness and anorexia. The rebellious Qi moves upward, leading to increased phlegm and saliva and puffy face and eyes.
