There is accumulation within the body and pathogenic influence from without. Yang fails to ascend, Yin fails to descend. The pathogens obstruct the diaphragm, all due to improper diet. The pulse is often deep (Fu mai, 伏脉) or imperceptible (Jue mai, 绝脉). Do not give grain food or rice soup; if ingested, death will ensue immediately. One must wait for one to two hours after vomiting ceases, until extreme hunger sets in, before allowing food intake.

One should induce vomiting to raise the Qi and disperse pathogens. Use salt solution or alum solution to induce vomiting. Muscle cramps belong to blood heat; use Siwu Tang (Four Substances Decoction).
