特于肛门边生者名之，亦有鼻痔、眼痔、牙痔等。其状不一，方分五种∶曰牡、曰牝、曰脉

珠，状如鼠奶，时时滴渍脓血；脉痔者，肠口颗颗发 ，且痛且痒，血出淋沥；肠痔者

有酒痔，每遇饮酒发动，疮即肿痛而流血；血痔者，每遇大便则血出而不止，宜解热调血顺
气为主。若久而不愈，必至穿穴为漏矣。

Intestinal hemorrhoids are like small hills protruding from a large swamp. Any small fleshy protrusion in the nine orifices of the human body is called hemorrhoids (hemorrhoids). It is not only those growing around the anus that are named hemorrhoids, but also nasal hemorrhoids, eye hemorrhoids, and dental hemorrhoids. Their manifestations vary, and they are classified into five types in medical texts: Mu Hemorrhoids (Yang Hemorrhoids), Pin Hemorrhoids (Yin Hemorrhoids), Mai Hemorrhoids (Vein Hemorrhoids), Chang Hemorrhoids (Intestinal Hemorrhoids), and Qi Hemorrhoids (Qi Hemorrhoids). Pin Hemorrhoids present as sores and swelling protruding from the side of the anus, occurring several times a day, with swelling subsiding after pus discharge; Mu Hemorrhoids present as exposed fleshy nodules resembling mouse milk at the side of the anus, with frequent dripping of pus and blood; Mai Hemorrhoids present with granular protrusions at the anal opening, accompanied by pain and itching, and dripping blood; Chang Hemorrhoids present with nodules inside the anus accompanied by bleeding, alternating chills and fever, and rectal prolapse during defecation; Qi Hemorrhoids occur upon experiencing fear or anger, causing swelling and pain in the anus, resolving when the Qi disperses. There is also Wine Hemorrhoids, triggered by drinking alcohol, causing immediate swelling, pain, and bleeding of the sores; Blood Hemorrhoids involve continuous bleeding during defecation, treated primarily by clearing heat, cooling blood, and regulating Qi.

A man suffered from hemorrhoids with dripping pus and blood, dry mouth and thirst, evening fever with bloody stool, spontaneous sweating, and night sweats. I diagnosed this as Yin deficiency of the Kidney and Liver. He did not believe me and continued taking Four Substances Decoction (Siwu Tang) and herbs like Phellodendron and Anemarrhena, resulting in poor appetite, diarrhea, and vomiting. I first used Bu Zhong Yi Qi Tang (Tonify the Middle and Augment the Qi Decoction) added with Poria (Fuling), Pinellia (Banxia), and Roasted Ginger (Paojiang), gradually restoring the Spleen and Stomach; then administered Liu Wei Di Huang Wan (Six-Ingredient Pill with Rehmannia) morning and night. After more than two months, all symptoms resolved (both formulas are found in the Tonification chapter).
