（论一首十四条 方九十三首 灸法四首）
论曰∶瘭疽者，肉中忽生点子如豆粒，小者如黍粟，剧者如梅李，或赤、或黑、或青、
或白，其状不定，有根不浮肿，痛伤之应心，根深至肌，经久便四面悉肿 ，黯熟紫黑色，
能烂坏筋骨。若毒散，逐脉入脏杀人。南人名为拓着毒浓肉处，即割去之。亦烧铁烙之，令
焦如炭。或灸百壮。或饮葵根汁，或饮蓝青汁，若犀角汁及升麻汁、竹沥黄龙汤等诸单方治，
专去其热取瘥。其病喜着十指，故与代指相似，人不识之，呼作代指，不急治，亦逐脉上入
脏杀人。南方人得之，皆斩去其指。初指头先作黯 ，后始肿赤黑黯， 痛入心是也。
代指者，先肿 热痛，色不黯，缘爪甲边结脓。剧者，爪皆脱落。此谓之代指病也。但
得一物，冷药汁拓渍之佳。若热盛服漏芦汤，（方见本卷痈疽门）及拓渍之。敷升麻膏（方
见
本卷丹毒门）亦可。针去血，不妨洗渍涂膏也。复有恶肉病者，身上忽有肉如赤豆粒，突出
便长，推出如牛马乳，上如鸡冠状，不治自长出不止，亦不痛痒，此由春冬时受恶风入肌脉
中，变成此疾，治之宜服漏芦汤，外烧铁烙之，日日为之，令焦尽，即以升麻膏敷上，积日
乃瘥。
又有赤脉病者，身上忽有赤脉络起陇耸如死蚯蚓之状，视之如有水在脉中，长短皆逐脉
所处，此由春冬受恶风入络脉中，其血肉瘀所作也，宜五香连翘汤（方见本卷痈疽门）及竹
沥
等治之。刺去其血仍敷丹参膏（方见本卷痈疽门）。亦用白鸡屎涂之良。
恶核病者，肉中忽有核累累如梅李核，小者如豆粒，皮肉疼痛壮热恶寒是也。与诸疮根
瘰结筋相似。其疮根瘰 因疮而生，是缓无毒。恶核病卒然而起有毒，若不治入腹，烦闷
杀人，皆由冬月受温风，至春夏有暴寒相搏，气结成此毒也。但服五香汤主之（方见本卷痈
疽门）。又以小豆末敷之，亦煮汤渍时时洗之，消后以丹参膏敷之，令余核尽消。凡恶核初
似被射工毒无常定处，多恻恻然痛，或时不痛。人不痛者即不忧，不忧则救迟，救迟则杀人，
是以宜早防之。尤忌食鸡、鱼、猪、牛、马、驴等肉。其疾初如粟米，或似麻子，在肉里而
坚似 ，长甚速。初得多恶寒，须臾即短气，取吴茱萸半斤作末，水一升和，绞取汁，顿服，
以滓
凡KT 病喜发四肢，其状赤脉起如编绳，急痛壮热。其发于足，喜从 起至踝，亦如
编绳，故云KT 病也。发于肾，喜着腋之下，皆由久劳热气盛为湿凉所折，气结筋中成此
病也。若不急治，其久溃脓，亦令人筋挛缩也。若不消溃，其热气不散，多作趺病，漏芦汤
主之。泻后锋针数针去恶血，气针泻其根，核上敷小豆末，取消为度。又用治丹法治之。又
用治痈三味甘草散敷之（无方）。若溃，敷膏散一如痈法。
恶核KT 病瘭疽等，多起岭表，中土鲜有，南方人所食杂类繁多，感病亦复不一，仕
人往彼深须预防，防之无法，必遭其毒，惟五香汤、小豆散（即麻子小豆散，本卷痈疽门），
吴茱萸皆其要药。
凡附骨疽者，以其无破（《外台》作故）附骨成脓，故名附骨疽。喜着大节解中，丈夫、
产妇喜着 中，小儿多着脊背。大人急着者，先觉痛不得动摇，按之应骨痛，经日便觉皮肉
渐急，洪肿如肥状是也。小儿才手近便大呼，即是肢节有痛候也。大人缓着者，先觉肌烘烘
然，经日便觉痛痹不随。小儿四肢不能动摇，亦如不随状。看肢节解中，若有肌烘烘处，不
知是附骨疽。令遍身成肿不至溃，体皆有青黯，大人亦有不别，呼为贼风风肿，不知是疽也。
凡
又夏秋露卧，为冷所折，风热伏结而作此疾。急者热多风少，缓者风多热少。小儿未知取风
冷，何故而有此疾？由其血盛肌嫩为风折之，即使凝结故也。凡初得附骨疽，即服漏芦汤下
之。敷小豆散得消。可服五香连翘汤（方见本卷痈疽门中）。
凡贼风，其人体卒无热，中暴风冷，即骨解深痛不废转动，按之应骨痛，久即结痛，或
结瘰 ，其附骨疽久即肿而结脓，以此为异。若治附骨作贼风，则增益病深脓多。若治贼风
作附骨，则加风冷，遂成瘰 偏枯挛曲之疾也。疗之之效，皆在善始耳。此非天下至精，其
孰能与于此。若候附骨与贼风为异者，附骨之始，未肿但痛而已。其贼风但痛不热，附骨则
其上壮热，四体乍寒乍热，小便赤，大便涩而无汗，若得下却热并开发腠理，便得消也。纵
不消尽，亦得浮浅近外。凡贼风，但夜痛，骨不可按抑，不得回转，痛处不壮热，亦不乍寒
乍热，觉身体索索然，冷欲得热熨，痛处即小宽，时复有汗出，此为贼风证也。宜针灸熨爆。

又有风热毒相搏为肿，其状先肿上生瘭浆，如火灼处，名曰风热毒，治之一如丹法。
又有洪烛疮，身上忽生瘭浆，如沸汤洒。剧者遍头面，亦有胸胁腰腹肿缓，通体如火汤
灼瘭起者是也。治之法，急服漏芦汤下之，外以升麻膏敷之。其敷升麻膏若无效，一根据敷丹

**Another formula:**
Moxibustion at Quchi (LI11) acupoint, two points. For children, use one moxa cone per year of age. Apply immediately upon onset; it is miraculous and effective.
(There is one treatise containing fourteen clauses, ninety-three formulas, and four moxibustion methods in this chapter.)
**Treatise:**
Biao Ju (Acute Suppurative Infection) refers to small spots suddenly appearing in the flesh, like bean grains. Small ones are like millet seeds, severe cases like plum or cherry pits. They may be red, black, green, or white, with indeterminate shapes. They have a root but do not swell initially. Pain is severe, radiating to the heart. The root extends deep into the muscle. If left untreated for a long time, the surrounding area swells completely, turning dark purple-black, and can rot bones and tendons. If the toxin spreads along the meridians into the zang organs, it can cause death. People in the South call it "Tuo Zhuo Du" (Touching Poison). They cut it away from the thick flesh. Alternatively, they cauterize it with a hot iron until it is charred like carbon. Or they perform moxibustion (100 cones). Or they drink Kui Gen Juice (Kudzu Root Juice), Lan Qing Juice (Indigo Juice), Xijiao Juice (Rhinoceros Horn Juice - *note: modern substitutes used*), Shengma Juice (Cimicifuga Juice), Zhuli (Bamboo Sap), Huanglong Tang, etc., as single-herb remedies to clear heat and achieve cure. This disease tends to occur on the ten fingers, resembling Dai Zhi (Whitlow). People who do not recognize it call it Dai Zhi. If not treated urgently, the toxin travels up the meridians into the zang organs, causing death. People in the South amputate the finger. Initially, the fingertip becomes dark, then swells, turns red, black, and dark, with pain penetrating the heart.
Dai Zhi (Whitlow) begins with swelling, heat, and pain, without darkness of color. Pus forms along the nail edge. In severe cases, the nails fall off. This is called Dai Zhi disease. Applying cold herbal juice compresses is beneficial. If heat is excessive, take Loulu Tang (Euphorbia Decoction) (see this volume, Carbuncle and Fungus section) and apply compresses. Applying Shengma Gao (Cimicifuga Ointment) (see this volume, Erysipelas section) is also acceptable. Pricking to release blood does not hinder subsequent washing, soaking, or applying ointment.
There is also a condition called E Rou Bing (Malignant Flesh Disease), where fleshy growths suddenly appear on the body like red bean grains. They protrude and grow, resembling cow or horse teats when pushed, with a chicken-comb-like top. If untreated, they grow continuously without pain or itching. This is caused by evil wind entering the muscles and meridians during spring and winter. Treatment should involve taking Loulu Tang and externally cauterizing with a hot iron daily until charred, then applying Shengma Gao. It takes many days to heal.
There is also Chi Mai Bing (Red Meridian Disease), where red vascular networks suddenly rise on the body, swollen and convoluted like dead earthworms. It appears as if there is water within the vessels. The length varies according to the meridian distribution. This is caused by evil wind entering the collateral vessels during spring and winter, leading to blood and flesh stasis. Treatment should involve Wuxiang Liaoqiao Tang (Five-Aromatic Forsythia Decoction) (see this volume, Carbuncle and Fungus section) and Zhuli (Bamboo Sap). Puncture to release blood, then apply Danshen Gao (Salvia Miltiorrhiza Ointment) (see this volume, Carbuncle and Fungus section). Applying Bai Jishi (White Chicken Droppings) is also effective.
E He Bing (Malignant Nodule Disease) involves sudden nodules in the flesh, clustered like plum pits or beans. The skin and flesh are painful, accompanied by high fever and aversion to cold. It resembles the root nodules of scrofula from other sores. The nodules arising from sores are slow and non-toxic. E He Bing arises suddenly and is toxic. If untreated and enters the abdomen, it causes oppression and death. This is caused by warm winds in winter colliding with sudden cold in spring and summer, condensing qi into toxicity. Treat primarily with Wuxiang Tang (Five-Aromatic Decoction) (see this volume, Carbuncle and Fungus section). Also apply Xiaodou Powder (Adzuki Bean Powder) externally, and wash frequently with a decoction. After resolution, apply Danshen Gao to dissipate remaining nodules. Initially, E He Bing resembles a bite from a "She Gong" (an ancient mythical poisonous insect), with no fixed location, often causing dull pain or no pain. Lack of pain leads to lack of concern, delayed treatment, and death. Therefore, early prevention is essential. Avoid chicken, fish, pork, beef, horse, and donkey meat. The lesion starts like millet or hemp seeds, hard inside the flesh, growing rapidly. Initially accompanied by aversion to cold, followed quickly by shortness of breath. Take Wu Zhu Yu (Evodia Fruit) 0.5 jin, grind into powder, mix with 1 sheng of water, squeeze out the juice, and take in one dose. Use the dregs... [Text fragment].
Fan ... [Text fragment] disease prefers the limbs. Symptoms include red vascular lines rising like braided ropes, urgent pain, and high fever. When occurring on the feet, it starts from ... [Text fragment] to the ankle, resembling braided ropes, hence the name ... [Text fragment] disease. When affecting the Kidney meridian, it prefers the axilla. This is caused by long-term labor generating excessive heat, which is suppressed by damp-cold, causing qi to knot in the tendons. If not treated urgently, chronic ulceration and pus discharge can lead to tendon contraction. If not resolved, persistent heat often leads to Fu Bing (foot swelling/pain), treated primarily with Loulu Tang. After purgation, puncture multiple times with a Feng Zhen (Sharp Needle) to remove bad blood. Use Qi Zhen (Qi Needle) to drain the root. Apply Xiaodou Powder on the nodule until it resolves. Treat using methods for Erysipelas. Also apply Sanwei Gancao San (Three-Ingredient Licorice Powder) for carbuncles (formula missing). If ulcerated, apply ointment/powder as for carbuncles.
E He Bing, ... [Text fragment], and Biao Ju often originate in Lingbiao (Southern regions) and are rare in Zhongtu (Central Plains). Southerners eat diverse foods, leading to varied diseases. Officials traveling there must prevent these illnesses rigorously. Without prevention, one will suffer the toxicity. Wuxiang Tang, Xiaodou San (Hemp Seed Adzuki Bean Powder, see this volume, Carbuncle and Fungus section), and Wu Zhu Yu are key medicines.
Fan Gu Ju (Bone-Attached Abscess) gets its name because it attaches to the bone and suppurates without initial surface rupture (*Waitai Mi Yao* reads "gu"). It prefers large joint spaces. Men and postpartum women prefer ... [Text fragment]. Children often get it on the back. Acute cases in adults begin with pain preventing movement; pressing elicits bone pain. After a day, skin and flesh become tight, swollen, and obese-looking. Children cry loudly when touched near the limb, indicating joint pain. Chronic cases in adults begin with a burning sensation in the muscle. After a day, pain and numbness prevent free movement. Children's limbs cannot move, appearing paralyzed. Examining joint spaces, if there is a burning sensation, it may be Fan Gu Ju. Generalized swelling without ulceration, with bluish-dark discoloration, is often mistaken by adults for Zei Feng (Thief Wind) or Wind Swelling, not recognizing it as Ju (Abscess).
... [Text fragment] Also, sleeping outdoors in summer and autumn exposes one to cold, while wind-heat lingers and knots, causing this disease. Acute cases have more heat than wind; chronic cases have more wind than heat. Children do not know how to avoid wind and cold; why do they get this? Because their blood is abundant and skin tender, wind attacks and causes condensation. Upon initial onset of Fan Gu Ju, take Loulu Tang to purge. Apply Xiaodou San to resolve. Can take Wuxiang Liaoqiao Tang (see this volume, Carbuncle and Fungus section).
Zei Feng (Thief Wind): The person has no sudden fever. After exposure to sudden wind-cold, deep bone/joint pain occurs but rotation is not impaired. Pressing elicits bone pain. Over time, it knots into pain or scrofula. Unlike Fan Gu Ju, which eventually swells and suppurates. Treating Fan Gu Ju as Zei Feng worsens the depth and pus. Treating Zei Feng as Fan Gu Ju exacerbates wind-cold, leading to scrofula, hemiplegia, and contractures. Treatment efficacy depends on accurate differentiation. Only the most skilled physicians can do this. To differentiate: Fan Gu Ju starts with pain before swelling. Zei Feng has pain without heat. Fan Gu Ju has high heat on the surface, alternating chills and fever in the limbs, red urine, constipation, and anhidrosis. Purging reduces heat and opens pores, leading to resolution. Even if not fully resolved, it becomes superficial. Zei Feng causes night pain only. Bones cannot be pressed or rotated. The painful area is not hot, nor does it have alternating chills/fever. The body feels shivery, preferring heat application. Pain slightly relieves. Occasional sweating indicates Zei Feng syndrome. Acupuncture, moxibustion, and hot compresses are suitable. Take ... [Text fragment].
Wind-Heat Toxin conflict causes swelling. Initially, blisters form on the swelling, resembling burns. This is Wind-Heat Toxin. Treat as Erysipelas.
Hong Zhu Chu (Blazing Candle Sore): Sudden blisters on the body, like boiling water splashed. Severe cases cover the head and face, or cause swelling in the chest, ribs, waist, and abdomen. The whole body feels like boiling water burning and blistering. Treat urgently with Loulu Tang to purge. Externally apply Shengma Gao. If ineffective, apply Dan Fang (Erysipelas Formula).
Re Chu (Heat Sore): Starts with white pus and yellow decay. The sore is shallow. Discharging yellow fluid is called Fei Chu (Fatty Sore).
Jin Yin Chu (Oozing Sore): Superficial. Scratching causes spreading and extension. Itching starts like Scabies. Scratching produces fluid, connecting lesions.
... [Text fragment] Chu: Starts like Fei Chu. Prefers hands and feet, often symmetrical. Fluctuates with the moon cycle. Pain, itching, and cracking vary by season.
Chronic abscess sores degenerating into deep Ju: Preferably occurs between the tibia and fibula. Discharges watery foul exudate. Cold prevents healing. Becomes Bone Ju over years, also called ... [Text fragment] Chu. Deeply rotten, dark green/black. Borders are hard. Center discharges pus and blood. Unresponsive to hundred medicines. Healthy tissue around the discharge is swollen and empty. Fragmented bones may排出. Soak in warm Chilong Pi Tang (Dragon Skin Decoction) (Vol 23, Intestinal Abscess). Wash daily in summer, every four days in winter. If granulation tissue is excessive, apply Bai ... [Text fragment] Ru San (White ... Radish Powder) (this volume, Carbuncle section). Remove necrotic tissue, apply every three days until stopped. Then apply Jia Zhushi San (Domestic Pig Manure Powder) (this volume, Carbuncle section) until healed. Burn pig manure to ash, grind to powder, fill the wound. Suck out white discharge, reapply until healed. If green granulation returns, apply Bai ... [Text fragment] Ru San again, then Jia Zhushi San until flat.
For Bone Ju unresponsive to all medicines, moxibustion on the sore sequentially for three days and nights heals it. If it recurs and bone protrudes from the hole, it is named Bone Ju. Take one dead female black chicken, remove meat, keep bones, roast until charred. Scrape wood屑 from ... [Text fragment] trees from three families. ... [Text fragment]
