Discussion states: Children's qi and blood are of a pure yang nature, their muscles are soft and fragile, making them susceptible to injury from wind-toxin and pathogenic heat. If Ying (nutritive) qi does not flow smoothly and rebels within the muscle tissue, condensing into fierce, toxic swelling and pain with abnormal manifestations, it is thus named "E Chuang" (Malignant Ulcer). Its symptoms may include itching or pain, red roots hidden within the flesh, hardness without suppuration, or perforation with pus formation, persisting for a long time without healing.
