Wet and out of luck

Water is not transported, also known as water retention, if it stays on the skin, it will produce edema; if it stays on the lung, it will become sputum; if it stays on the body cavity, such as chest cavity, abdominal cavity, there will be pleural effusion or ascites. Therefore, there is a saying in Chinese medicine that "wetness and swelling are all part of the spleen".
