摘要:

“以皮治肺”即通过内病外治以及皮药内服共同作用于肺。肺外合皮毛，生理功能互通，肺和皮肤细胞同源，通过药物外敷经皮肤入肺；中医法象思维指导运用皮类中草药治疗各类皮肤疾病，通过拓展思考，以皮肤为桥梁，内服皮类中草药治疗儿童咳嗽。在临床中外治法和皮类中草药广泛应用于儿童咳嗽，但并没有医家系统性提出通过“以皮治肺”治疗儿童咳嗽，笔者在“肺合皮毛”及“法象思维”的基础上论述，通过内外合治“以皮治肺”来宣发肺气，散肺中伏热。

Abstract:

“Treating lung with skin” means that the lung is treated with internal disease and external treatment and the skin medicine is taken internally. Outside the lung，the skin and lung cells have the same origin，and the drug enters the lung through the skin. Traditional Chinese medicine（TCM） thinking guides the use of skin herbs to treat all kinds of skin diseases. Through expanding thinking，taking skin as a bridge，taking skin herbs internally treats children’s cough. Although domestic and foreign therapeutic methods and dermatologic Chinese herbs are widely used in children’s cough，no doctors have systematically proposed to treat children’s cough by “skin to lung”，the author discusses on the basis of “lung to skin to lung” and “law thinking”，through the internal and external treatment of “skin to lung” to promote lung qi，dispel the heat in the lung.
