Is acupuncture treatment faster for coughs and colds?

My younger sibling is in Korea because of the college special application for their child, but they are at my house. My late-born nephew keeps setting the air conditioner to 18° as soon as he opens his eyes, so I ended up catching a summer cold too, haha.

 

I've been visiting a traditional Korean medicine clinic for a few months to treat shoulder pain... Last week, just before the clinic's holiday! When I went there, I had just started coughing, so I mentioned it, and they also gave me acupuncture related to that. When they inserted the acupuncture needle between my right thumb and wrist, I felt pain, and they said that's the lung... that my lungs are not good! Wow, it must be because of the cough, right?

 

But it was really strange that I kept having a dry cough, but I didn't cough during the acupuncture session.

I couldn't confirm whether it was temporary because I was on vacation afterward and couldn't go.

 

I used to think that the only way to treat a cold was to take medicine, but I found it somehow fascinating.

Was it just a brief temporary thing?

No... cough and cold...

I don't have a fever or anything like that, just a cough.

Is there anyone who has recovered after receiving acupuncture treatment?

 

It didn't work again, but if it proves effective, I want to try acupuncture treatment at a Korean medicine clinic next time, haha.

I don't want to take the medicine~~~ >_<
