The theory of blood turbidity holds great significance in the syndrome differentiation and treatment of pulmonary nodules (PNs). The state of blood turbidity is a unique interpretation by traditional Chinese medicine of the microenvironment of PNs. Based on the theory of blood turbidity and combined with the dynamic evolution law of PNs, this article conducts an in-depth analysis of the syndrome differentiation and treatment of PNs. It is proposed that "the injury of collaterals by turbid blood" is the core pathogenesis of the occurrence and development of PNs. It is pointed out that the stagnation in collaterals is the pathological basis for the occurrence of PNs. The damage of collaterals by turbid blood is the pathological key to the progression of PNs. The blockage of collaterals by turbid toxin is the premise for the canceration of PNs. Therefore, in the treatment, it is advocated to start from the perspective of "the injury of collaterals by turbid blood", with the general principle of clearing and resolving blood turbidity and restoring the function of collaterals. Combining syndrome differentiation with stage differentiation, integrating the methods of relieving depression and regulating qi, assisting yang and restraining yin, resolving phlegm, promoting blood circulation, removing blood stasis, detoxifying, dredging collaterals, nourishing collaterals, and opening collaterals, which provides ideas for the treatment of PNs.
