论曰肺为五脏华盖，开窍于鼻，肺气和则鼻亦和，肺感风冷，则为清涕，为 为息肉
，为不闻香臭，肺实热，则为疮为痛，胆移热于脑，则浊涕不已，谓之鼻渊，惟证候不同，
故治疗亦异。
论曰鼻塞气息不通者，以肺感风寒，其气搏结，不得宣快，窒塞既甚，而息不能出入也
，巢氏谓息肉生长，致气窒塞不通，盖有末尝生息肉，而气息不通者，宜析而治之。

论述说：肺是五脏的华盖（位于五脏最高处，覆盖诸脏），开窍于鼻。肺气调和，则鼻窍亦通利；若肺感受风冷邪气，则会出现清稀鼻涕、长出息肉、嗅觉失灵等症状；若肺经实热，则会导致疮疡疼痛；若胆经热邪移注于脑，则浊涕不止，这被称为“鼻渊”。由于证候表现不同，因此治疗方法也各异。
论述说：鼻塞且气息不通的症状，是因为肺感受风寒之邪，导致气机搏结郁滞，无法宣发舒畅，阻塞严重，致使呼吸出入受阻。巢元方认为息肉生长导致气机窒塞不通，但实际上也有未曾生息肉而气息不通的情况，应当加以辨析并分别治疗。

It is stated that the Lung is the canopy of the five zang organs (the highest organ covering the others), and its orifice opens to the nose. When Lung Qi is harmonious, the nasal passages are patent; if the Lung is affected by wind-cold, symptoms such as clear rhinorrhea, nasal polyps, and loss of smell may occur. If there is excess heat in the Lung, sores and pain may arise. If heat from the Gallbladder transfers to the brain, turbid rhinorrhea will persist, a condition known as Bi Yuan (Nasal Sinusitis). Since the clinical manifestations differ, the treatment methods also vary.
It is stated that nasal congestion with obstructed breathing results from the Lung being affected by wind-cold, causing Qi to knot and stagnate without being able to diffuse freely. Severe obstruction prevents the entry and exit of breath. Chao Yuanfang attributed this obstruction to the growth of nasal polyps; however, there are cases where breath is obstructed without the presence of polyps. Therefore, these conditions should be differentiated and treated accordingly.
