Commentary states: Pediatric dysentery with passage of red and white stool results from disharmony of the Spleen and Stomach, caused by injury from milk and food. Pathogenic factors stagnate in the intestines, struggling with body fluids; intestinal deficiency leads to diarrhea, thus forming dysentery. Deficiency combined with heat manifests as red stool; deficiency combined with cold manifests as white stool. When cold and heat are unbalanced, red and white mix, and pus and blood descend together, hence named "Red-White Dysentery" (Chi Bai Li).
