Nocturnal cough is a common symptom of lung diseases in children,belonging to the category of cough in traditional Chinese medicine(TCM).It is characterized by aggravation at night and difficulty in recovery.In clinical practice,it is often treated based on the theory of yin deficiency and yang hyperactivity.Professor Liu Liangli,when diagnosing and treating nocturnal cough in children,believes that the key pathogenesis lies in healthy qi deficiency and phlegm accumulation.According to the theory of gathering in stomach and blocking in lung,Professor Liu starts from the middle energizer(spleen and stomach)to treat nocturnal cough by strengthening the earth to generate metal,aiming to invigorate the spleen and stomach,eliminate phlegm,and dampness,and stop cough.She mainly uses the empirical formula Qingfei Baoyuan Decoction during the acute phase and Yangfei Baoyuan Decoction during the remission phase and modifies the formulas according to syndromes,achieving good clinical results.The review of Professor Liu's experience provides a new perspective for the TCM diagnosis and treatment of nocturnal cough.
