Simultaneous constipation of both stool and urine is caused by extreme fetal heat; Mutong San (Wood Vetch Decoction) and Zishuang Wan (Purple Frost Pill) may be used. These formulas clear heat and resolve accumulation with miraculous efficacy, while the method of oral suction (kou zuo) follows the previously described techniques.
[Note]
Infants presenting with inability to pass stool and urine at birth represent a most critical condition, resulting from excessive heat-toxin in the fetus.
Immediately apply the previously mentioned methods of oral suction on the five centers and below the umbilicus, then use Mutong San (Wood Vetch Decoction) to circulate and clear heat, and Zishuang Wan (Purple Frost Pill) to resolve accumulation, so that survival may be hoped for.
If delayed until seven days, termed one "lunar fortnight" (yi la), the abdomen becomes hard and distended with frequent moaning, making it difficult to treat.
(Mutong San / Wood Vetch Decoction)

Decoct with Junci Medullia (Dengxincao) water, or decoct together with Menthae Haplocalycis Herba (Bohe).

How to treat closure of both stool and urine?

Some cases involve anal constriction due to heat-toxin, or internal fusion of the anus with no passage. Qingdu (Clear Toxin) should be taken via Heibai San (Black and White Powder), and the method of using Zhiman Zan (Zhiman Needle) for guidance is exquisite.
[Note]
In newborns, internal fusion of the anus presents in two forms: one is excessive heat-toxin causing congestion and knotting at the anus; the other is lipid membrane covering the opening with no gap for passage.
For anal congestion and knotting, immediately administer Heibai San (Black and White Powder), and externally apply Suhexiang Wan (Styrax Pill), shaped like a date pit, inserted into the aperture.
Utilize its aromatic properties to open orifices and provide lubrication; once stool passes, survival may be hoped for.
For cases covered by lipid membrane with no gap, first pierce it with Jin Yu Zan (Golden Jade Needle) to break the membrane,
then guide the passage using Suhexiang Wan (Styrax Pill) as described above, perhaps offering a slim chance of rescue.
