ABSTRACT
Bullous pemphigoid is a chronic obstinate dermatological disease. Hormone is the main therapeutic method, but the disease course is rather long, relapse is frequently seen and difficult to be radically cured; many complications may occur such as pulmonary infection, etc. From traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) basic principal points of view "lung governing skin and hair" and "strengthen the body resistance to eliminate pathogenic factors", the author explored the TCM therapy of bullous pemphigoid. By using clearing away lung heat and invigorating lung qi as the main principles supplemented by invigorating spleen and kidney, eliminating phlegm and blood stasis for treatment of such disease, relatively satisfactory therapeutic results were obtained.
