古方论∶有黄胆、有疸病,命名不同,其实一也。详观他书,黄有三十六种,疸有五种。
三十六种黄者,圣惠方载之备矣。五疸之证,感之者多,不容不详。其五疸者,黄汗、黄胆
谷疸、酒疸、女劳疸是也。黄汗之状,身体俱肿,汗出不渴,状如风水,汗出染衣,黄如
汁,其脉自沉,此由脾胃有热,汗出入水浴,水入汗空中,故汗黄也。黄胆之状,食己即饥,
身体、面目、爪甲、牙齿及小便悉黄,欲安卧,或身体多赤多青皆见者,必发寒热,此由酒
食过度,脏腑热极,水谷相并,积于脾胃,复为风湿所搏,结滞不散,热气郁蒸所为也。大
抵发于阴部其人必呕,发于阳部必振寒而发热。谷疸之状,食毕即头眩,心中怫郁不安而发
黄,此由大饥大食,胃气冲蒸所致也。酒疸之状,身目发黄,心中懊痛,足胫满,小便黄,
面发赤斑,此由饮酒多,进谷少,胃内生热,因大醉当风入水所致也。女疸之状,身目皆黄,
发热恶寒,小腹满急,小便不利,此由大劳大热,不能保摄,房后入水所致也,其间多渴而
腹胀者,其病难疗。又有时气伤风、伤寒、伏暑,亦令人发黄。五疸口淡怔忡,耳鸣脚弱,
微寒发热,小便白浊,当作虚证治,不可妄投凉剂,愈伤血气。临病之际,不可不辨明也。

Ancient formula discussion: There are Huangdan (Jaundice) and Danbing (Dan disease); although named differently, their essence is the same. Detailed examination of other texts reveals thirty-six types of Huang (Jaundice) and five types of Dan.
The thirty-six types of Huang are fully recorded in the *Shenghui Fang*. The syndromes of the five Dans are frequently encountered and must be detailed. These five Dans are: Huanghan (Yellow Sweat), Huangdan (Yellow Jaundice), Gudan (Grain Jaundice), Jiudan (Wine Jaundice), and Nulaodan (Sexual Exhaustion Jaundice).
The manifestation of Huanghan includes swelling of the entire body, sweating without thirst, resembling Fengshui (Wind-Water edema), with sweat staining clothes yellow like juice, and a self-deep pulse. This arises from heat in the Spleen and Stomach; after sweating, one bathes in water, and water enters the pores, causing the sweat to turn yellow.
The manifestation of Huangdan includes feeling hungry immediately after eating, yellowing of the body, face, eyes, nails, teeth, and urine, a desire to lie still, or the appearance of excessive redness or blueness on the body, inevitably accompanied by chills and fever. This results from excessive food and drink leading to extreme heat in the Zang-Fu organs; water and grain accumulate in the Spleen and Stomach, are combated by Wind-Dampness, remain stagnant, and are caused by the郁蒸 (stagnation and steaming) of heat qi. Generally, if the disease originates in Yin regions, vomiting will occur; if in Yang regions, chills and fever will manifest.
The manifestation of Gudan includes dizziness immediately after eating, mental restlessness and depression, followed by yellowing. This is caused by extreme hunger or overeating, leading to counter-flow and steaming of Stomach Qi.
The manifestation of Jiudan includes yellowing of the body and eyes, mental distress and pain, fullness/swelling of the calves, yellow urine, and red spots on the face. This results from excessive drinking with insufficient food intake, generating heat in the Stomach, often due to getting drunk and then being exposed to wind or entering water.
The manifestation of Nulaodan includes yellowing of the body and eyes, fever and chills, fullness and urgency in the lower abdomen, and difficult urination. This is caused by severe labor and heat, failure to preserve vitality, and entering water after sexual intercourse. Cases involving excessive thirst and abdominal distension are difficult to treat.
Additionally, seasonal pathogens injuring the Wind, Cold damage, or latent Summerheat can also cause yellowing.
For patients with the five Dans presenting with bland taste, palpitations, tinnitus, weak legs, slight chills and fever, and turbid white urine, these should be treated as Deficiency syndromes. Do not recklessly administer cooling agents, as this will further injure Blood and Qi. At the time of clinical presentation, differentiation must be clear.
