脉
表脉浮而无力，太阳也。脉长有力，阳明也。脉浮而弦小者，少阳也。河间曰∶
太阳宜汗，阳明宜下，少阳宜和解。
病
《内经》曰∶风者，百病之始也。清净，则腠理闭拒。虽有大风苛毒，而弗能为害也。若夫破伤风证，
因事击破皮肉，往往视为寻常，殊不知风邪乘虚而客袭之。渐而变为恶候。又诸疮久不合口，风邪亦能内袭，
或用汤淋洗，或着艾焚灸，其汤火之毒瓦斯，亦与破伤风邪无异，其为证也。皆能传播经络，烧烁真气，
是以寒热间作，甚则口噤目斜，身体强直，如角弓反张之状，死在旦夕，诚可哀悯。
治
法当同伤寒处治，因其有在表、在里、半表半里三者之不同，故不离乎汗、下、和三法也。是故在表者
汗之，在里者下之，在半表半里之间者宜和解之，又不可过其法也。

Pulse Diagnosis
A superficial pulse that is floating and weak indicates a Taiyang (Greater Yang) syndrome. A long and forceful pulse indicates a Yangming (Yang Brightness) syndrome. A pulse that is floating, wiry, and small indicates a Shaoyang (Lesser Yang) syndrome. He-Jian stated: For Taiyang conditions, sweating (diaphoresis) is appropriate; for Yangming conditions, purgation (draining downward) is appropriate; for Shaoyang conditions, harmonization is appropriate.
Disease Pathogenesis
The *Neijing* (Inner Canon) states: Wind is the beginning of all diseases. If the body remains in a state of tranquility, the couli (pores and interstices) will close and resist external pathogens. Even with severe wind and toxic influences, they cannot cause harm. However, regarding Traumatic Wind (Po Shang Feng), which results from injuries that break the skin and flesh, people often regard it as trivial, not realizing that wind pathogens invade due to deficiency. It gradually develops into a malignant condition. Furthermore, if various sores fail to heal for a long time, wind pathogens can also invade internally. Using hot water irrigation or moxibustion introduces the toxicity of heat and fire, which is no different from traumatic wind pathogens. These conditions can spread through the meridians, burning and consuming true qi. Consequently, alternating chills and fever occur. In severe cases, trismus (lockjaw), facial deviation, and rigid body posture resembling opisthotonos (arched back like a bow) appear, leading to death within days or evenings. This is truly pitiable.
Treatment Principles
Treatment should follow the principles used for Cold Damage (Shang Han). Because the pathogen may be in the exterior, interior, or half-exterior half-interior, the methods of sweating, purging, and harmonizing are essential. Therefore, for exterior conditions, use sweating; for interior conditions, use purging; for half-exterior half-interior conditions, use harmonization. However, these methods must not be overused.
Formulas
Rusheng San (Like-Sage Powder)
Chuanwu (Aconiti Lateralis Radix Praeparata), Caowu (Aconiti Kusnezoffii Radix Praeparata) (each 3 qian); Cangzhu (Atractylodis Rhizoma); Xixin (Asari Radix et Rhizoma); Chuanxiong (Ligustici Chuanxiong Rhizoma); Baizhi (Angelicae Dahuricae Radix); Fangfeng (Saposhnikoviae Radix) (each 1 qian).
Grind the above into powder. Take 5-7 fen per dose, mixed with wine. Avoid greasy, fishy, and wheat products. For bites from mad dogs, add Liangtoujian (Gastrodiae Rhizoma) and Hongniangzi (Lytta) each 1 qian. For stroke causing numbness or wandering pain, take with wine. For dizziness caused by wind whirling, take with wine. For headache, take with tea. For hemicephalalgia, hold water in the mouth and insufflate into the nose. For common cold, take with hot tea to induce sweating. For dental pain caused by wind-worms, frequently rub the affected area to promote salivation. For uncontrolled bleeding from metal wounds, apply dry powder directly. For chronic malignant sores, rinse with water held in the mouth, wipe dry with cotton, and apply powder. For dog bites, snakebites, or scorpion stings, rinse with water held in the mouth, then wash with salt water, and apply the medicine. For carbuncles, ulcers, tumors, red thread disease, back abscesses, or brain abscesses during flare-ups, mix with fresh well-water, apply on paper as a poultice, and subsequently take with wine. For scalds or burns, mix with fresh well-water and brush onto the skin using a chicken feather. For bruising from beating with blood present, apply dry powder. For scrofula, rinse with water held in the mouth and apply powder. For wet or dry eczema, rub with sesame oil.

For severe contusions where the patient appears dead but the heart region remains slightly warm, administer 2 qian mixed with urine from a young boy, continuing for two doses. For open mad dog bites, first rinse with water, dry with silk, and apply the powder to prevent recurrence. If no pus forms, the efficacy is significant.
