1. Sputum is a kind of tangible dirty pathogenic fliud secreted by respiratory tract, and mucous which is mixed substance of secretion from trachea and bronchus and foreign body. And it is expectorated or swallowed after moved to pharynx by ciliary movement
2. In oriental Medicme, there are wind, cold, damp, hot, dry stagnant, Qi sputm, while in western medicne, mucus, serous, purulent, bloody.
