Discussion: The epigastric and abdominal distension caused by the eruption of "Rushi" (mineral drugs) occurs because diet and living habits are all exposed to warm and hot conditions, causing the mineral drug's potential to become stagnant and obstructed, preventing free circulation. Consequently, heat qi in the zang-fu organs fights with each other, resulting in epigastric and abdominal distension. There are also cases where abdominal distension is so severe that it feels as if the belt will break; this is also due to warm sleeping and living environments, combined with improper diet, untimely bathing, and excessive physical exertion. If one can consume cold food, bathe with cold water, and stand in the wind to cool down, the distension will naturally subside.
