针药结合是中医治疗体系中的重要组成部分，是在整体观念的指导下，通过针灸的体表刺激与药物内部调节的协同作用，实现多靶向、多维度防治疾病的效果。高树中教授临证倡导针药并用、内外合治。针对急性扁桃体炎，高教授指出其病机关键在肺胃，多由风热外袭、胃腑积热或肺胃素有郁热复感外邪所致，临证擅用阙上穴骨膜刺法，配合少商、商阳点刺放血，同时中药内服以升降散合银翘散加减治疗；针对膈肌痉挛，认为其病机核心在于气机逆乱动膈，临证辨证选穴针刺，并配合中药外敷或验方内服。撷取高树中教授针药结合治疗急性扁桃体炎及膈肌痉挛的临证经验，以期为针药结合的临床应用提供有益参考。

The combination of acupuncture and Chinese medication is an essential treatment method in traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) system. Guided by the concept of holism , it achieves multi-targeted and multi-dimensional disease prevention and treatment effects by synergistically exerting the external stimulation effect of acupuncture and the internal regulatory effect of decoction. Professor Gao Shuzhong advocates the combined use of acupuncture and medication, as well as integrated internal and external treatment in clinical practice. points out that the key pathogenesis lies in the lung and stomach meridians, which is mostly caused by external attack of wind-heat, accumulated heat in the stomach, or internal stagnated heat in the lung and stomach complicated by external pathogenic factors. In clinical practice, he is skilled in applying the periosteal needling method at the Shangque (Extra Points), combined with pricking and bloodletting at Shaoshang (LU 11) and Shangyang (LI 1). Meanwhile, internal administration of traditional Chinese medicine is adopted, using Shengjiang Powder (Shengjiang San) combined with Yinqiao Powder (Yinqiao San) with appropriate modifications. For diaphragmatic spasm, he holds that the core pathogenesis is the reversal and disturbance of qi movement affecting the diaphragm. In clinical practice, acupoints are selected based on syndrome differentiation for acupuncture, combined with external application of traditional Chinese medicine or internal administration of proven formulas. This article selects Professor Gao Shuzhong's clinical experience in treating acute tonsillitis and diaphragmatic spasm with the combination of acupuncture and medication, aiming to provide useful references for the clinical application of this integrated therapy.
