Abstract: With the continuous development of imaging technology, the detection rate of lung nodules is increasing. Currently, the treatment of western medicine is mainly based on regular follow-up examination, which fails to get effective intervention in the early stage, and there is a risk of cancerous transformation after a long period of time. Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) has developed a unique understanding of lung nodules in the course of long-term diagnosis and treatment, and has developed many effective therapeutic means. Based on the theory of “five elements of qi”, Mr. Li Mang believes that the pathogenesis of lung nodules is always attributed to the deficiency of yang, qi depression and phlegm congealment, with the spleen-earth deficiency of yang and lung-jin failure of declaring and descending as the core of the disease, and that the treatment should be based on the basic rules of warming yang, strengthening the spleen and regulating lungs to resolve phlegm, in order to restore the normal qi and qi function of the lungs and spleens.
