ABSTRACT
To explore the mechanism of needling Ying method for treatment of sore throat. By the analysis of pathogenesis of sore throat, the authors think the key of its pathogenesis is stagnation of pathogenic factors such as hotness and phlegm accumulating, and meridian-vessel obstruction in the throat is its meridian foundation. There are several meridians passing through the throat, so the throat is closely related to viscera and meridians, and stagnation of pathogenic factors such as hotness and phlegm accumulating in the throat lead to sore throat when exogenous pathogenic factors invading or dysfunction of viscera and meridians. The treatment of needling Ying at local throat or combined with corresponding meridian point selection can dredge collaterals, dispel pathogenic factors, remove pathogenic factors to dispel swelling, resolve phlegm and dissipate stagnation and harmonize yin and yang, so as to relieve sore throat. In conclusion, needling Ying method is an important method in the treatment of sore throat.
