Allergic rhinitis characterized by stuffy nose and watery discharge is, in Oriental medicine, referred to as Bisak(鼻塞) or Bigu. This condition occurs either exogenously or endogenously, and from my clinical experience, most patients who visit my clinic have endogenous causes. The nose in Oriental medicine is closely related to the Lungs, Heart, Large Intestines, Skin, Spleen and Stomach. Therefore, the wholistic approach to allergic rhinitis is much more efficient in treating it than the mere focus-oriented treatment.
