Exploring connotation of "dampness‑induced injury in autumn" and its clinical prevention and treatment based on temporal‑spatial view of "nine palaces and eight winds"
In ancient explorations of nature and the universe, the concept of a unified time-space relationship was developed. The
Huangdi Neijing
(
The Yellow Emperor's Inner Canon
) links this temporal-spatial view with the human organs and diseases, forming a distinctive medical worldview in traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) that integrates time, space, and the viscera. The temporal-spatial view presented in the chapter "
Jiugong Bafeng
" (
Nine Palaces and Eight Winds
) of
Lingshu
(
The Spiritual Pivot
) is a strong representation. The concept of "dampness-induced injury in autumn" falls within the domain of TCM's temporal-spatial medicine and is discussed in several chapters of the
Suwen
(
The Plain Questions
), including
Yinyang Yingxiang Dalun
,
Shengqi Tongtian Lun
and
Lunji Zhenchi
. Over the centuries, numerous interpretations have emerged. Based on the temporal-spatial view of "
Jiugong Bafeng
" (
Nine Palaces and Eight Winds
), this paper explores the causes, related diseases, and treatment methods of "dampness-induced injury in autumn." It is found that this condition is connected to the ancient tempo
ral-spatial view, and diseases such as cough, atrophy and cold extremities caused by "dampness-induced injury in autumn" require not only the supplementation of the lung and spleen, but also the regulation of the liver, and tonification of the heart and kidneys. Also, it is essential to nourish both the body and the spirit while guarding against "wind invasion due to vital qi deficiency".
