    There are many colors of sputum, and different bacterial infections are also different colors. Sputum is the garbage of the respiratory tract, which contains the mucus secreted by us, the dust, soot, bacteria, and viruses that are inhaled into the lungs, as well as the exfoliated cells, necrotic tissues, blood cells, and purulent matter in the respiratory tract and lungs. Yellow or pale yellow, yellow-green, rust-colored.

    The constitution is weak, the middle qi is insufficient, and due to the lack of luck in the spleen, the water can stay wet and condense into phlegm.

    Weakness of the spleen and stomach, lingering, damage to the spleen and stomach; or eat raw food, melons and fruits, and Zhongyang is injured; Or drinking too much water due to fever, unable to transport the spleen, etc., can make the water stay wet and gather into phlegm. There is also indulgent food and sweetness, turbidity in the stomach is steaming, and dampness and heat can also be turned into phlegm and turbidity.

    External sense is untreated, or the body is weak and repeatedly suffers from external sense, the lung qi is injured, can not be transfused, the bladder is transferred under the water channel, so that the water stays, and it can also become phlegm, and the phlegm is stored in the lungs, the lung qi is unfavorable, and the phlegm gushes into the airway, which will cause cough and phlegm.

    Traditional Chinese medicine believes that the production of phlegm is mainly related to the lungs and spleen. The lungs breathe mainly and regulate the entry and exit and rise and fall of zongqi (yuanqi). If the lungs are not stabilized, coughing, wheezing, and lying inequality may occur.

    When the wind evil or cold evil invades the lungs, the fluid in the lungs condenses into phlegm. The spleen is the main transport, that is, the digestion and transport of nutrients to the various organs. If dampness invades the human body, or if it is overly thoughtful, tired, or undisciplined, it can hurt the spleen and cause it to lose its function of transport, causing the dampness to stop and condense into phlegm.
