The back belongs to Yang and the abdomen to Yin, occupying different positions. Chills due to weak Yang often occur on the back. (*Suwen* states: The back is Yang, the abdomen is Yin. Back chills indicate weak Yang.) This condition arises in two scenarios: one is *San Yang He Bing* (Combined Disease of the Three Yang Meridians). (Zhang Zhongjing states: In Combined Disease of the Three Yang Meridians, sweating on the forehead accompanied by back chills indicates this syndrome.) The other is *Shao Yin* disease, with cold pathogen on the exterior. (Zhang Zhongjing states: In *Shao Yin* disease, within one or two days of onset, if the mouth feels neutral [not dry] and there are back chills, moxibustion should be applied, and *Fuzi Tang* (Aconite Decoction) should be used as the primary treatment.) To distinguish between Yin and Yang syndromes, observe whether the mouth is neutral or dry and the distribution of symptoms. (Zhang Zhongjing states: Back chills with a sensation of numbness or loss of taste in the mouth indicate Combined Disease of the Three Yang Meridians. Conversely, a neutral mouth with back chills indicates *Shao Yin* disease.) If it is Combined Disease of the Three Yang Meridians with dry mouth and numbness, *Baihu Tang* (White Tiger Decoction) is the appropriate formula to suppress Yang heat. (Zhang Zhongjing uses *Baihu Tang* to treat back chills by suppressing and dissipating Yang heat.) If it is *Shao Yin* disease with a neutral mouth, moxibustion is required, and combined with *Fuzi Tang*, the Yin cold will recede naturally. (Explanation provided above.)
Jue syndrome (Cold Extremities) includes Cold Jue and Heat Jue; pulse and symptoms must be carefully differentiated. Cold Jue presents with cold limbs from the onset, a deep and thready pulse, and no significant body heat. (Cold Jue: Upon initial illness, the patient feels cold extremities; the pulse is deep and thready, and the body is not significantly hot.) The feet are often cramped and curled up, with aversion to cold, pulling clothes for cover, and no thirst. (Zhang Zhongjing states: All Jue syndromes result from the failure of Yin and Yang Qi to connect smoothly, leading to Jue. Jue is characterized by cold hands and feet. Thus, foot cramping, external aversion to cold, pulling clothes for warmth, absence of irritability, and lack of thirst are common.) Heat Jue presents with body heat and headache, with Jue typically developing after three or four days. Within half a day, heat returns, manifesting as tossing hands and feet and severe irritability. (Heat Jue differs fundamentally from Cold Jue. Cold Jue occurs immediately upon illness; Heat Jue develops only after four or five days, with heat returning within half a day. Tossing hands and feet indicates internal irritability.) Generally, the deeper the heat, the deeper the Jue; the milder the heat, the milder the Jue, as they influence each other. (Zhang Zhongjing states: In Shanghan, if Jue appears between the first/fifth day, fever will follow previous Jue. Deep Jue implies deep heat; mild Jue implies mild heat. Jue should be treated with purgation; misusing diaphoresis will cause oral ulcers and redness.) When Qi and Blood stagnation causes cold extremities, physicians who fail to recognize this may mistakenly suspect a Yin syndrome. However, if the pulse is deep, hidden, and slippery, with sweating on the head and face, and warm fingernails, urgent purgation is required without delay. Otherwise, diagnostic confusion will lead to further calamity. (Deep, hidden, and slippery pulses indicate latent heat within. Although limbs are cold, fingernails are warm, indicating excess Yang syndrome. Urgent purgation leads to recovery.) Another scenario involves the approach of genuine sweat, where suddenly one or both arms lose their pulse, with cold extremities and a dull complexion. *Xixin Gancao Tang* (Asarum and Licorice Decoction) can resolve this crisis. (Zhu Gong states: Sudden loss of pulse in one or both arms with cold extremities suggests impending genuine sweat. Use *Xixin Gancao Tang* to assist sweating; recovery follows sweating.) Heart palpitations (*Zheng Tong*) accompany Jue with water retention; when the pulse is tight, the pathogen is interior. (Zhang Zhongjing states: In Shanghan, Jue with epigastric palpitations requires prior treatment of water retention using *Fuling Gancao Tang* (Poria and Licorice Decoction); otherwise, water entering the stomach causes diarrhea. Also, cold extremities with a sudden tight pulse indicate pathogen knotting in the chest, causing epigastric fullness, irritability, and anorexia. Since the disease is in the chest, emesis is indicated, using *Gua Di San* (Melon Seed Powder).) Fever lasting seven to eight days followed by cold body is named Zang Jue (Viscera Jue), which is difficult to treat. (Zhang Zhongjing states: In Shanghan, a faint pulse with Jue progressing to skin coldness and restlessness after seven to eight days is Zang Jue, distinct from Hui Jue (Roundworm Jue). Patients with Hui Jue typically vomit.)
