When diagnosing pulse conditions, one should observe the pulses corresponding to the four seasons, and simultaneously understand the three positions (Cun, Guan, Chi) and nine depths (Floating, Middle, Deep) of pulse diagnosis, as well as the excess and deficiency patterns identified through the seven diagnostic methods. Only in this way can one ascertain the condition. Unless one thoroughly comprehends the subtle and profound principles of medicine, it is impossible to distinguish between life and death prognoses.

The Classics state:

Question: Wind-toxin invading the human body can cause illness anywhere; why does it specifically tend to settle in the feet?

If affected by Dampness, it often leads to standing in dampness, causing muscles to become stiff and numb, cold affecting the area below the knees, long-term standing in dampness, resulting in pathology below the knees.
Throughout the four seasons, one should not sit or stand for long periods in damp and cold places. Nor should one remove clothes, shoes, or hats to cool off in the wind after becoming drunk and sweating. These actions all lead to...

If Hongxiangjiao (Foot Qi/Gout) is accompanied by other diseases, treat according to the syndrome with additional medicines. If the onset is triggered by Stone Drugs (mineral drugs such as Five-Stone Powder), treat with medicines that promote urination and defecation. If there is skin edema or water disease, treat with medicines for water retention. Other cases follow this pattern.
Hongxiangjiao is caused by Wind-Damp-Toxin Qi, or it can be said that Kidney Deficiency allows the pathogen to invade. The treatment method requires examining excess and deficiency.
