The *Zhubing Yuanhou Lun* (Treatise on the Pathogenesis and Manifestations of All Diseases) states: Dysentery with red and white discharge is caused by a disharmony of cold and heat. Heat invades the blood level, causing blood to seep into the intestinal cavity, where it mixes with intestinal fluids and is discharged together. In severe cases...
The *Qianjin Fang* (Essential Prescriptions Worth a Thousand Gold) provides the Wenspi Tang (Warming Spleen Decoction) for treating chronic dysentery with red and white discharge persisting for years, as well as cholera-like conditions with cold accumulation that fails to dissipate:

Administer three times daily; do not exceed one dose per administration...
The *Lu Yan Fang* provides a formula using Puhuang (Lygodii Spora, 2 qianbi) and Jiangjiang (Zingiberis Rhizoma, 2 qianbi) for treating chronic red and white dysentery.
Combine these two herbs and take orally with one sheng of heated wine. Recovery typically occurs within four or five doses; this method has proven highly effective.
