TCM notes on hemoptysis caused by lung cancer

Cancer is not new today, it also existed in ancient times, and so is lung cancer. Traditional Chinese medicine's understanding of lung cancer is respectively attributed to lung accumulation, cough, chest pain, ruffian, hemoptysis, and so on. This mainly depends on the prominence of the main symptoms. For example, the proportion of hemoptysis in lung cancer is as little as 1/3, and more than half. And tuberculosis of the lungs, bronchiectasis, pneumonia and other diseases are prone to hemoptysis, some exogenous diseases will also appear hemoptysis, so discrimination is very important.

Lung cancer, like other cancers, takes a certain amount of time to gradually form, so first of all, in terms of age, it is necessary to cough up blood at about 30 to 40 years old, and then consider lung cancer. Then need to know the length of other symptoms, hemoptysis volume and shape and other aspects to identify, or whether to do chest X-ray and other examinations. If the patient does not have an examination, the amount of hemoptysis is not much, it is bright red, or mixed with foamed sputum, mostly in the early stage.

Recurrent hemoptysis is also one of the obvious symptoms of lung cancer, very few patients with lung cancer have the phenomenon of massive hemoptysis, most patients with lung cancer have less hemoptysis, but the phenomenon of hemoptysis may be accompanied by the whole course of the disease. The symptom of hemoptysis is also one of the reasons for many lung cancer patients to see a doctor, which may be all blood, or blood sputum may be mixed or there is only blood in sputum. These different symptoms, combined with pulse and tongue coating, can distinguish between cold and heat.
