IgA nephropathy (IgAN) is the most common glomerular disease, which is one of the main causes of chronic kidney disease. The course of this disease is prolonged, and the condition is often recurrent, and most of the disease changes after respiratory, gastrointestinal, and urinary infections, and respiratory infections are the most common of the three, which makes the treatment more difficult. In Chinese medicine, there is no direct name for this disease, but according to its symptoms, it can be categorized as "hematuria", "edema", "urolithiasis", "slow kidney wind" and other diseases. The disease is often caused by the recurrence of exogenous infections. For the recurrence of this disease due to exogenous infection, Chinese medicine treats IgA nephropathy from the pharynx according to the theory of "pharyngeal and renal correlation", which has achieved good clinical efficacy, and this point of view has received more and more attention nowadays. This article focuses on the treatment of IgA nephropathy from the pharyngeal-renal theory.
