Flying throat

飞扬喉 〔飛揚喉〕 fēi yáng hóu

A large blood blister hanging from the palate; attributed to latent heat in the bowels and viscera surging upward. Flying throat is the same as flying flag wind, but springs from the palate rather than the uvula.

Medicinal therapy: Clear heat and drain fire; cool the blood and resolve toxin. Use Coptis Toxin-Resolving Decoction (黄连解毒汤 huáng lián jiě dú tāng). Compare flying flag wind.
