Sore throat and cough are one of the common main complaints in the outpatient clinics of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) in winter. Most patients can find a clear cause. After treatment with Chinese medicine, the symptoms can usually be relieved or completely eliminated. This case discusses the treatment of a 35-year-old male patient who suffered from tonsil inflammation due to poor eating habits and long-term nasal regurgitation. After taking western medicine, he still had a sore throat and cough. The first prescription was based on Xiao-Xian-Xiong-Tang and Cang-Er-Sang in Treatise on Febrile and Miscellaneous Diseases. Zi-Wan, Ting-Li-Zi, Chen-Pi and Baikal Skullcap were added and subtracted according to the symptoms, and patient education was given appropriately. After taking Chinese medicine for twice return visits, his symptoms, like sore throat and cough with sputum, have been cured. Over all, he is quite satisfied with the curative effect of traditional Chinese medicine.
