有人饮酒过多,因酒作病,胸脘不快,其气扪隔,服无数二陈汤,竟无寸效,由是不喜
饮食,复以调气散投之,致发大热,自后只用薄荷煎、鸡苏丸、麻仁丸,日就痊愈,乃知胸
脘闭隔,热在上焦使然耳。又有人酷好饮酒,复感寒邪,服不换金正气散,以致内热愈炽,
烦渴且闷,汗出如雨,身体怯寒,续后以小柴胡东加枳壳、白芍药解之。柴胡、黄芩退热,
枳壳宽中,芍药调营止汗,顿然痊愈。然则酒家抱病,其可妄以温药尝试一中乎?
筋惕身 ,发汗太过所致也。古人以真武汤主之。然真武汤能止其汗而不能定其 。

血虚无以荣筋,筋愈急而四体百骸愈为之 动。治法不用驱风并发散等辈,惟人参、当归、

庐江刘宝云∶《产宝》所载方药甚详,独无产后中风、角弓反张一证。按产后中风,因
怀胎时多啖生冷,脾胃受湿,复经乳卧之后,津液内竭,履地太早,脱着不时,以致风邪乘
虚入于足太阳之经。其证发热头疼,或时不热,喘息痰咳,言语不伦,渐觉牙关紧急,十指
微动,如摸物之状。加以项背强直,或哑或叫,目睛直视,肠滑不禁,身如反弓,转侧不仁,
如此十无一生,《活人书》谓太阳发痉是尔。凡产后初得发热,常须审视,若唇急舌謇,手
指微动,便以中风药品急治之。用药归荆汤、独活酒。附在湿门。独荆散、防风散、续命汤。

A person drank excessively and became ill due to alcohol, experiencing discomfort in the chest and epigastrium with qi obstruction. He took numerous doses of Erchen Tang (Two-Cured Decoction) but achieved no effect whatsoever, leading to a loss of appetite. Subsequently, Tiaoqi San (Qi-Regulating Powder) was administered, which caused high fever. Thereafter, only Bohe Jian (Mint Decoction), Jisu Wan (Chicken-Su Pill), and Maren Wan (Hemp Seed Pill) were used, resulting in gradual recovery. It was then realized that the chest and epigastrium obstruction was caused by heat in the Upper Jiao (Upper Burner).
Another individual, who had a strong preference for alcohol, contracted cold pathogens. After taking Buhuanjin Zhengqi San (Non-Exchanging Gold Qi-Regulating Powder), his internal heat intensified further, causing irritability, thirst, chest stuffiness, profuse sweating like rain, and aversion to cold. Later, Xiaochaihu Tang (Minor Bupleurum Decoction) was modified with Zhike (Bitter Orange Fruit) and Shaoyao (Peony Root) to resolve the condition. Chaihu (Bupleurum Root) and Huangqin (Scutellaria Root) cleared heat; Zhike broadened the middle and regulated qi; Shaoyao harmonized Ying (Nutritive Qi) and stopped sweating, leading to an immediate cure. Thus, when a person addicted to alcohol falls ill, how can one rashly attempt warm medicines?
Jinti Roukun (Muscle twitching and tremors) is caused by excessive sweating. The ancients treated it with Zhenwu Tang (True Warrior Decoction). However, while Zhenwu Tang can stop sweating, it cannot stabilize muscle tremors. Kun refers to movement. Sweating leads to exterior deficiency, allowing external wind to enter the Couli (interstices). People know that wind causes movement, hence the trembling, but they do not realize that excessive sweating damages Blood. When Blood is deficient, it fails to nourish the sinews, causing the sinews to become more tense and the limbs and bones to tremble more severely. The treatment should not employ wind-dispelling and dispersing agents, but rather use Ren Shen (Ginseng Root), Dang Gui (Angelica Sinensis Root), Chuanxiong (Ligusticum Rhizome), Shaoyao (Peony Root), Banxia (Pinellia Tuber), Fuling (Poria), and Gancao (Licorice Root) as the main formula, with Wulingzhi (Trogopterus Dung) as an assistant, decocted together with Shengjiang (Fresh Ginger) and Wumei (Dark Plum). This yields miraculous effects. These herbs specifically generate Blood; generating Blood is the means to consolidate sweat. If there is constipation and dryness, add a small amount of Dahuang (Rhubarb Root) to guide out the stagnation. Once the blood vessels are harmonized, calmness is restored in the blink of an eye.
Liu Baoyun from Lujiang stated: The prescriptions in *Chanbao* (Precious Prescriptions for Obstetrics) are very detailed, yet they lack a syndrome of postpartime Wind-stroke with opisthotonos. Postpartum Wind-stroke occurs because during pregnancy, excessive consumption of raw and cold foods dampens the Spleen and Stomach. After nursing and lying in bed, body fluids are depleted internally. Stepping on the ground too early and improper clothing allow Wind pathogens to invade the Foot-Taiyang Bladder Meridian due to deficiency. Symptoms include fever and headache, or sometimes no fever, panting with phlegm and cough, disordered speech, gradually tightening of the jaw, slight movement of the ten fingers resembling grasping objects, stiffness of the neck and back, muteness or screaming, fixed gaze, involuntary bowel movements, a body arched like a bow, and immobility upon turning. In such cases, none of ten survive. *Ren Shu* (Book of Human Life) states this is Taiyang Fa Jing (Taiyang Spasm). Whenever fever appears immediately after childbirth, careful observation is required. If the lips are tight, the tongue is stiff, and fingers move slightly, Wind-stroke medications should be administered urgently. Medications include Guijing Tang (Angelica and Schizonepeta Decoction) and Du Huo Jiu (Notopterygium Wine). Attached to the Dampness section. Dujing San (Schizonepeta and Angelica Powder), Fangfeng San (Saposhnikovia Powder), and Xuming Tang (Continuing Life Decoction) are found in the attached Women's Prescriptions. Suitable for both men and women.
