Alternatively, it could be due to the heat accumulation, or toxins, in the lungs. Treatment is directed toward clearing the lungs and nasal cavities and removing toxins.

Regular acupuncture and herbal treatments can achieve the goal of health maintenance, as prevention is emphasized in our practice. Avoid cigarette smoke or other air pollutants, alcoholic beverages, dusty areas, pollen or even specific types of food. Most important, boost the immune system
