Abstract:The theories of “Qi ascending and descending” and “interior-exterior relationship between lung and intestine” were both recorded in Huangdi’s Internal Classic, and both played a vital role in the system of Traditional Chinese Medicine(TCM). Besides, they are widely practiced in TCM clinic. As a representative pair of organs that share a interior and exterior relation, the qi ascending and descending between lung and intestine has unique features. That the lung and intestine are close to each other could evidence their interior-exterior relationship, that their relationship contributes to ones life, and the Qi movement between them are the basic mechanism of their relationship.
