What does chinese medicine say about the nose and possible weeaknesses?
95231
I am not sure exactly what you mean when you say “weakness”, but here is one way in Chinese medicine for the thinking about the nose.\n\nIn Chinese medical theory, the nose is related to the Lung.  The Lung is considered to be the canopy for the other organs that lie beneath it in the torso.  Also, it is the closest organ to the outer part of the body (compared to, say, the heart, which is more internal).  In this framework, the Lung can be seen as a vulnerable organ, and can be the first to be attacked in the disease process.  So a weakness of the nose could be a sign of a weakness of the Lung.\n\nChinese medicine generally addresses the pattern of symptoms, not just one thing like the nose.  If you are have trouble with your nose, please see a health care practitioner. :)

Having grown up around Southeast Asians(17years)(Cambodians&Laotians) I noticed the same thing as you and they told me that it's to scratch in certain places(nose,ear,etc.) I don't know if it's true or not but it's the explanation I was given.

Could be a sinus infection or an allergy.

i would say no. it usually is caused by allergies. Sinusitis is an inflammation of the lining of one or more of the sinus cavities in the facial bones around your nose. Sinusitis can make life miserable, causing tenderness in your face, aching behind your eyes and difficulty breathing through your nose.\n\nMost cases of sinusitis are acute infectious sinusitis, which generally lasts less than four weeks. If the signs and symptoms of sinusitis last more than 12 weeks, or if you have frequent bouts of sinusitis, you may have chronic sinusitis.\n\nChronic sinusitis is one of the most common chronic diseases in the United States, affecting an estimated 33 million people each year. Treatment may be with medications or, in some cases, surgery\n i tried many meds and now take singulair and that works i can breathe again.

Licorice (Glycyrrhiza glabra) has cortisone-like activity which is anti-inflammatory, stimulates the adrenals, and relieves allergy symptoms. Can be taken as a tea or 100–300 mg in capsule form.

it cured my 5 year migraine after 1 session so yea, it works! its a 5000 year old system of medicine compared to 2000 year old regular western medicine. it was all the chinese had for a very long time and it could not have survived if it didnt work. try it one time, you dont have anything to lose and everything to gain. besides its cheaper than regular visits to doctors. its especially good for pains, allergies, migraines.

Yes smelling things that aren't there can be a sign, but a very rare one. My husband was just diagnosed with a brain tumor and  had surgery. The only sign he had was that his right side stopped working. No headaches or anything. You can go to hope.abta.org for more info.

A blend of Vitamin C and licorice (real licorice).  The active ingredient, Glycyrrhizin, has been shown to have a positive effect in treating rhinovirus and cold-like symptoms.\n\nEchinacea has been shown to be ineffective in dealing with rhinovirus, so avoid this.

It should be fine, since that Chinese remedy is made up of tangerine rind and licorice root, and other food derivatives like barley.\n\nIt's really good for gastrointestinal issues.
