Pulse: In cases of the five types of jaundice presenting as excess-heat, the pulse must be surging and rapid; if it is faint and choppy, the condition belongs to deficiency.
Jaundice (Huang Dan): Although there are five types of jaundice, they all result from damp-heat steaming and fermenting within the Spleen and Stomach due to food and fluids, causing yellowing of the body. When symptoms include fullness and oppression in the chest and abdomen, yellowing of the face and whole body, and scanty dark-red urine resembling soap pod juice, it is akin to fermentation by yeast, indicating jaundice generated by damp-heat. Use Yinchen Siling San (Yinchen Four-Ingredient Powder) with modifications. If the patient presents with yellowing, thirst, and solid stool, use Yinchendahuang Tang (Yinchen Rhubarb Decoction) to purge, after which the yellow color will naturally recede. Recovery is indicated when the urine becomes clear and white. Many cases of jaundice resolve into drum distension (Gu Zhang).
