Cough – COPD suffering from phlegm… Improvement with ‘Cocktail Oriental Medicine Complex Therapy’

In the early stages of Yeongdong Oriental Medicine Clinic, it is similar to a cold, so it is easy to miss the treatment period… If left untreated, oxygen supply to the body is reduced, causing heart disease. The heart and lungs must be treated simultaneously to speed up recovery… ‘K-Cardiopulmonary Team’ strengthens cardiopulmonary function and relieves coughing. ‘Kim’s Antler Yeongdong-tang’ helps reduce inflammation… When taken together, symptoms improve in 3 to 4 months. Dr. Nam-seon Kim introduces clinical trials of combination treatment in Japan.

Dr. Nam-seon Kim of Yeongdong Oriental Medicine Clinic, a chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) specialty hospital, used K-Heart Pulmonary Dan and Kim’s Antler Yeongdong-tang, a ‘pulmonary COPD combination drug treatment’, at the Osaka Convention Center in Japan from May 31 to June 2. They announced that they would introduce a clinical study on a case that completely cured pulmonary COPD.

COPD and K-Cardiopulmonary Group

COPD is one of the five major chronic diseases designated by WHO, but is less widely known than other chronic diseases such as high blood pressure and diabetes. However, unlike hypertension, diabetes, and hyperlipidemia, which do not have obvious symptoms, COPD has many uncomfortable symptoms that interfere with daily life. If these symptoms, such as being out of breath more easily than other people even when walking the same distance, constantly producing phlegm, and coughing, become progressively worse, you should suspect COPD. In particular, the risk of developing COPD is high if you have smoked for a long period of time or worked for a long time in a kitchen, construction site, or vehicle repair shop where a lot of fine dust is generated. If you have an allergic disease such as allergic rhinitis, asthma, or sinusitis, it can cause chronic inflammation in the respiratory tract, which can easily lead to COPD.

COPD, which causes bronchial inflammation and airway obstruction

COPD is a lung disease in which smoking, fine dust, and allergies cause an inflammatory response in the respiratory tract, narrowing the airways and causing the alveoli to lose their normal function over a long period of time. When you smoke for a long period of time, harmful substances such as cigarette tar accumulate in the alveoli, which are small alveoli at the ends of the bronchi. These accumulated harmful substances harden the alveoli and the lungs gradually lose elasticity. When the alveoli lose their elasticity and become stretched, the exchange of oxygen and carbon dioxide does not occur smoothly, and the supply of oxygen to the body decreases. Even the slightest movement causes one to gasp for breath, and due to insufficient oxygen being delivered to every corner of the body, cyanosis, where the lips turn blue, may appear.

Harmful substances accumulate not only in the alveoli but also throughout the respiratory tract from the nose to the bronchi and alveoli. These accumulated substances irritate the bronchi and damage the airways. If the inflammatory reaction continues in the bronchial tubes, sputum accumulates and coughing with phlegm continues. As this process is repeated, the bronchi gradually narrow and breathing becomes difficult, and obstructive pulmonary disease is diagnosed. COPD greatly reduces the quality of life because even a little activity causes shortness of breath.

The problem is that COPD is initially accompanied by mild respiratory symptoms, so the majority of patients miss treatment. The typical symptoms of COPD, such as coughing, phlegm, difficulty breathing, and chest tightness, are dismissed as a mild cold and do not undergo testing. It is important to detect COPD early to prevent symptoms from worsening and lower the risk of death. Therefore, if you are over the age of 40 and have persistent cough, phlegm, or difficulty breathing and have a history of smoking, you should not take these symptoms lightly and get tested regularly. Additionally, the majority of COPD patients have a history of lung diseases such as tuberculosis and pneumonia, so if you have ever suffered from a respiratory disease, you should take extra care in managing your condition.

The most important thing is to restore damaged lung function

COPD is most often accompanied by irreversible bronchial obstruction. Irreversible means that the narrowing of the bronchi is not completely resolved but progresses gradually and cannot return to its normal state. For this reason, COPD treatment focuses on relieving uncomfortable symptoms such as coughing and phlegm and preventing the disease from progressing further. If the bronchial tubes narrow and breathing becomes difficult, inhalers that temporarily expand the bronchial tubes are used, and if excessive phlegm is produced, antitussive expectorants that reduce phlegm are prescribed. However, these treatments only help temporarily relieve uncomfortable symptoms and do not restore damaged lungs. Moreover, steroids, which are representative drugs that reduce inflammation, may cause side effects such as lowering systemic immunity the longer they are used.

To treat COPD, it is important to regenerate damaged alveoli. In Oriental medicine, treatments are performed to restore bronchial and lung function and strengthen immunity. The goal is to reduce inflammation in the bronchial tubes, clean the lungs, and improve lung immunity by regenerating damaged bronchial smooth muscles and sagging alveoli. The representative treatment is Yeongdong Oriental Medicine Clinic’s ‘K-Heart and Lung Dan’. K-Heartlungdan is a pill prescribed as a cocktail herbal medicine combination therapy with ‘Kim’s Antler Yeongdong-tang’, which reduces inflammation in the entire respiratory system from the nose to the bronchi and alveoli and increases immunity. Ephedra, gyeji, honeysuckle, and sinihwa reduce inflammation accumulated in the bronchial tubes and improve breathing. If you add deer antler and deer antler, which increase the regenerative capacity of the lungs, you can induce cleansing and regeneration at the same time.

Treats the lungs and heart together to maximize effectiveness

More than 70% of COPD patients are accompanied by heart diseases such as arrhythmia, angina, and myocardial infarction. This is because the heart muscle does not receive enough blood due to insufficient oxygen supply due to decreased lung function. When oxygen supply to the coronary arteries that supply nutrients to the heart becomes insufficient, the heart muscle loses its function. As heart function declines, symptoms of shortness of breath and chest tightness become more severe. Symptoms of angina may occur, such as chest pain or pressure as if being pressed down with a heavy object. Therefore, for COPD, the recovery speed is faster when the lungs and heart are treated together.

K-Heart-Lung-Drug has a strengthening effect that strengthens the heart, improving weakened heart and lung functions at the same time. It is based on precious medicinal ingredients such as deer antler, which is effective in regenerating bronchial smooth muscle and alveoli and improving immunity, and musk, which has a cardiotonic effect and helps respiratory communication, and is especially effective in alleviating coughing, phlegm, and breathing difficulties. In particular, the pure gold coated on the K-heart-lung layer lasts for a long time and helps strengthen the heart, lungs, and blood vessels.

Mr. K, 67, who visited Yeongdong Oriental Medical Clinic due to severe coughing, phlegm, and chest discomfort, said he was diagnosed with angina pectoris. He frequently experienced stabbing pain in his chest, radiating pain to his left arm and shoulder, and sometimes suffered from anxiety as if someone would strangle him to death. He also complained that he suffers from severe coughing and clear phlegm every morning.

At Yeongdong Oriental Medical Clinic, Mr. K began treatment to improve his cardiopulmonary function. Medicinal ingredients such as musk, agarwood, beef sulfur, and cornelian cherry have a tonic effect that strengthens the heart and strengthens the cardiovascular system. Therefore, if you prescribe Kim’s deer antler Yeongdong-tang, which restores lung immunity and relieves symptoms of shortness of breath and stuffiness due to abnormalities in the heart and lungs, bronchial and circulatory symptoms will improve.

Mr. K said that his heart pain disappeared after a month and his coughing attacks improved after two months. After six months of treatment, his symptoms had improved so much that he no longer felt the need for medication. He showed rapid improvement because his lungs and heart were treated together.

If you use the cocktail herbal medicine combination therapy of Kim’s Deer Antler Yeongdong-tang and K-Heart Pulmonary Complex together, the symptoms will disappear as early as 3-4 months. Of course, consistent management is also essential to prevent COPD from worsening or symptoms from recurring. COPD patients must quit smoking and develop cardiorespiratory endurance and respiratory function through regular respiratory rehabilitation exercises. Even mild respiratory infections can be fatal for COPD patients, so it is also important to maintain cleanliness in daily life and wear a mask when exposed to environments with a lot of fine dust. In particular, COPD patients often already have reduced lung function, so they should receive regular vaccinations to prevent pneumonia, influenza, etc. Above all, it is most important for COPD patients to receive early diagnosis and treatment when symptoms appear.
