After a child suffers from convulsions (Jingfeng), slight eye movements and teeth grinding occur due to the depletion of body fluids after illness, which fails to nourish the tendons and vessels. There are also cases where liver fright and deficiency heat generate internal wind; treatment should be based on an assessment of whether Qi and Blood are in excess or deficiency. If fever occurs during the day, with a desire for cold drinks accompanied by these symptoms, it indicates Qi excess, treated with Xieqing Wan (Drain the Liver Pill). If night sweats and restless sleep occur with these symptoms, it indicates Blood deficiency, treated with Dihuang Wan (Rehmannia Pill). If wind pathogen from the Liver channel transmits to the Spleen and Kidney, causing teeth grinding, first use Chaihu Qinggan San (Bupleurum Clearing the Liver Powder), followed by Wuwei Yigong San (Five-Ingredient Extraordinary Efficacy Powder) and Liuwei Dihuang Wan (Six-Ingredient Rehmannia Pill). If caused by deficiency heat in the Spleen and Stomach, use Buzhong Yiqi Tang (Tonify the Middle and Augment the Qi Decoction) added with Shaoyao (White Peony Root) and Shanzhi (Gardenia Fruit); if caused by excess heat, use Xiehuang San (Drain the Spleen Powder). This is because the gums belong to the Hand-Yangming Large Intestine and Foot-Yangming Stomach channels. If there is heat in the Liver and Kidney, use Liuwei Dihuang Wan.
Case Record:
The six-year-old daughter of the Xi family suddenly developed convulsions with eye movements and teeth grinding, sometimes experiencing convulsive twitching and excessive phlegm-saliva during sleep. Previous treatments with phlegm-resolving and wind-dispelling herbs worsened the condition. I stated: "The bluish complexion combined with the aforementioned symptoms indicates Liver Wood overacting on Spleen Earth, failing to control saliva, causing it to surge upward. One should nourish Kidney Water to generate Liver Blood, so that wind will subside and phlegm will dissipate." Consequently, Liuwei Wan was administered, resulting in a cure.
Another child suffered from the aforementioned symptoms with spontaneous drooling. Treatment with convulsion medicines worsened the condition and further weakened the Spleen and Stomach. Observing the sallow complexion and expectoration of phlegm, Liu Junzi Tang (Six-Gentlemen Decoction) combined with Buzhong Yiqi Tang was used, leading to recovery.

The Classic states: "All wind disorders involving tremors and dizziness belong to Liver Wood." When Wood encounters wind, it shakes; this represents deficiency wind generated by excessive fire in the Liver channel. Tang Shi treated the son of Prefect Zheng, who had head-shaking and hematochezia for seven years. Treatments with wind-dispelling and hemostatic herbs were ineffective. This was caused by wind-heat invading the Liver channel, where Spleen Earth was controlled by Liver Wood, failing to contain blood, which ulcerated into the Large Intestine, causing persistent hematochezia. Thus, Qinggan Yiwei Tang (Clear the Liver and Benefit the Stomach Decoction) was formulated to pacify the Liver, benefit the Spleen, and dispel wind-heat, along with concurrent administration of Weifeng Tang (Stomach Wind Decoction). After more than ten days, all symptoms resolved. Hematochezia occurs because wind-Wood shaking causes Spleen Earth to be oppressed, failing to control blood. Alternatively, excessive consumption of sour flavors may augment Liver Qi, leading to Yin condensation. The Classic states: "In Jieyin (Condensed Yin) disease, one sheng of blood is passed in stool; if condensed again, two sheng; if condensed thrice, three sheng." Furthermore, pathogens in the five Zang organs cause disharmony in the Yin pulses; disharmony leads to blood stasis, forming Jieyin disease. Internal condensation of Yin Qi prevents its outward circulation, allowing it to seep into the intestines, thus causing hematochezia. Other causes include a wet nurse's anger leading to vigorous wind-heat, or Liver Wood injuring Spleen Earth, preventing the ascent of clear Qi, or wind pathogen invading the Large Intestine. Treatment methods: For wind-heat, use Chaihu Qinggan San. For anger-fire, use Jiawei Xiaochaihu Tang (Modified Minor Bupleurum Decoction). For failure of clear Qi to ascend and sinking of Spleen Qi, use Buzhong Yiqi Tang. For wind pathogen invading the Large Intestine, use Qinggan Yiwei Wan. For reckless bleeding due to Liver channel blood-heat, use Liuwei Dihuang Wan. For Spleen Earth failing to nurture Liver Wood, use Liu Junzi Tang, Chaihu, and Goutenggou (Uncaria Rhynchophylla). For Liver Wood overcoming Spleen Earth, use Si Junzi Tang, Shaoyao, and Goutenggou. For Jieyin disease, use Pingwei Diyu Tang.
Case Record:
A child suffered from wind-cold cough with surging phlegm. I reasoned: "Spleen deficiency and Lung weakness lead to loose interstices, allowing external wind pathogen to invade." Treatment with Liu Junzi Tang added with Jiegeng (Platycodon Root), Sangpi (Mulberry Bark), and Xingren (Apricot Seed) resulted in a cure. Later, food stagnation caused diarrhea and abdominal distension; Liu Junzi Tang added with Shanzha (Hawthorn Fruit) and Houpo (Magnolia Bark) restored health. On another occasion, food stagnation caused diarrhea, but after taking digestive herbs, the cough worsened. I advised tonifying Spleen Earth. The family did not believe this and self-administered exterior-releasing and stagnation-breaking herbs, worsening previous symptoms and adding head-shaking. I treated with Tianma San (Gastrodia Powder) with doubled Goutenggou and Yigong San, resulting in a cure.
A child presented with cervical lymphadenopathy, sallow complexion, emaciation, teeth grinding, convulsions, head-shaking, and blinking. This indicated Liver Wood overacting on Spleen Earth. Treatment with Liu Junzi Tang and Jiawei Lushui Wan (Nine-Ingredient Aloe Pill) led to rapid recovery.
A child, after recovering from illness, experienced excessive phlegm upon fright, teeth grinding, convulsions, head-shaking, and diarrhea. Strict administration of Niu Huang (Calculus Bovis), Shexiang (Moschus), and Zhusha (Cinnabar) led to slow convulsions and death.
