汉东王先生《家宝》∶小儿积病可医者九∶
面上虚肿是积。积者,是脾之所系。脾主身之肌肉,故应面,故知是脾积。其脾系土,土无正形,故早晚
浮肿不定,多则早浮,其睡则脾不磨,上面作肿。若病后有此证,则是虚中积。宜用调脾、消积、行气等药。
面合地卧是积。何以合地?其受积在脾,是冷积,何以知之?其脾好土,故知之在脾。其冷者属阴,故知
伤冷、硬食得之。宜下热积气药耳。
腹胀是积,其积在肺。何以知之?其肺主于气,才当受积,其气便冷,腹胀满,气急,故知之在肺。如腹
胀,先宜调气后转,转后更宜调气。
小便如油是积,其积在小肠。何以知之?其积受于脾,脾当转心,心不受触,则入小肠。小肠是心之腑,
故知在小肠。则节其水道,小便如米泔、油相似也。
发黄是积、是积伤心气。心主血脉,荫遍身毛发,被积气所干则发黄,故知是积伤心,宜下空心散(方未见),
及取积药。此人必时复发热也。
赤白痢是积。其积在肺,受传大肠,及有外伤冷而得。何以知之?其肺主西方庚辛金,其色白,后赤则是
外邪。故知肺传大肠,则为赤白痢也,宜取后调气。
两眼黄赤、睛青是积,其积在肝。何以知之?肝主东方甲乙木,色青,却被积气所干,即黄赤。睛青者,
眼属五脏,肝是其主,肝若受积,故令眼睛青。是肝受积,若传胆、其人口苦,不要吃物,宜凉药退之。
遍身虚肿是积,其积不在脏只在腑。何以知之?为其积曾取后,被药发动,即不在脏,故出皮肤之间为肿
也。只宜下,取虚中积药,然后补之耳。
多泻白粪是积,是受冷,积在脾。何以知之?脾主化,受冷积在脾,冷滑而泻白粪,故知在脾。宜先转,
后热药补之。
汉东王先生《家宝》∶小儿积病不可医者六∶
喘急是肺积。肺主气,其喘急则肺绝,其人当面白,全无血色,故不可医也。
面黑是肾积。其人面黑者是肾绝也,人当不辨好恶,眼直无光,只得一日而死也。
吐热气是荣积。其不医者,是血绝不可治也。血主心,心不能管,故出热气不止耳。
手脚心生疮是卫积。卫者气也,胃气不生,故手足生疮。若卫绝则气不回,只得半日而死也。
恶心、吐、干呕是胃积,何以不医?胃主化食,其胃绝则恶吐,故不治。其人必食乳不化,不食亦干吐呕,
面色青黄,无血色也。
泻久住又泻,是积咬脾烂。何以知其脾烂?其人当泻白粪,为食不消,住了,却放粪赤黑而死,即知脾烂
不可治。
钱乙论∶积病口中气温,面黄白,目无精光,或白睛多,及多睡畏食,或大便酸臭者,当磨积,宜消积丸
(方见本门),甚者当白饼子下之(方见搐弱门中),后和胃。
《婴童宝鉴》论∶小儿五积为脏气不行,蓄积一处不动,故曰积。夫心为伏梁在脐上。上攻其心,下攻胃口;
脾为痞气,在胃口上横之;肝为肥气,在脐之左边;肺为息贲,在脐之右畔;肾为贲屯,在脐之下。各有变动,
非食之所成,乃气积也。脏属阴,故在一处而不动也。
《婴童宝鉴》∶小儿有聚,谓六腑之气留聚也。腑属阳,阳气运转不停,故其聚不定一处,发而腹痛。积聚
之候,皆面黄瘦劣, ,不生肌肉,发立或肌体浮肿,腹急多困,多为水气。
《五关贯珍珠囊》辨小儿积候∶面虚肿,腹肚胀,多睡、小便如油,泻痢,眼黄,头发疏黄,腹内虚鸣,吐
逆。
《五关贯珍珠囊》论虚中积候∶凡惊中虚积者,谓因惊取,复惊发动是也。所下粪青秽。凡虚中有积者,因
伤食而泻又吐,如此渐虚,其病未瘥,故曰虚积也。又虚中之积,有积而频频取转,却取转不着,致其积尚伏,
故亦曰虚中积。若惊积取下、则粪随惊青。如是食积,即粪成块子。凡疳中虚积者,因疳病转泻,虚而疳不退,
故虚中尔。所取下粪裹白色也。
《小儿形证论》八种疾病。杨玄操云∶多吐、多泻、多困、多热是也。
面肿、手脚肿,是虚中有积。腹胀不思饮食,是胃中有积。合面吃土炭,痢痛,大腹中有积。面多黑,困
不眼开,脾脏中有积。小便似油,脚手肿,肾脏中有积。渴,泻不止,膀胱中有积。腹内虚鸣,小便赤黄,小
肠中有积。多吐逆,不吃食,上膈中有积。
《惠眼观证》脏腑积候∶浑身虚肿者,脾之有积,久取不下,号曰虚中积。先塌气,后取之。肚腹肿,四
肢黄色者,受水气,须取之。小便如米泔,肝脏受积,此候用取之。头发黄者,疳劳候欲发,此背之积,用

此虫攒心,用取之。
《保生》论小儿积病脉∶(其脉沉实。)积者,小儿恣餐,毒食瓜桃李果、肥滑粘腻之
物,蕴成积聚。其形候面色黄白,
头发焦立,腹胀虚鸣,面仆地卧,小便如油,频频多滑,久患赤白痢,以上皆是积病。若小儿肥实,宜与葱汤

《保生》论小儿积病死候∶其脉洪大,下黑血,形瘦不行,坐久患积。腹急如鼓,项软,四肢冷,口噤都不

茅先生小儿初受诸积歌∶
小儿诸积病,还因乳哺成。先从腹肚胀,次及面虚盈。多睡面合地,小便似油清。发黄兼滑泻。吐逆肚虚
鸣。白痢更并赤,眼黄因得名。
茅先生小儿又受积歌∶
小儿因受诸般积,面肿腹胀因伤食。腹内虚鸣合地卧,多渴发黄并痢疾。眼黄吐逆并多睡,尿色如泔疳积极。
茅先生又小儿积病不治歌∶
候得小儿诸积病,百个难医一个命。胃积多生手掌疮,疳劳吐泻应难整。孩儿生下五色恶,瘦弱伶仃无瘥
日。久泻止来又忽泻,口中热气奔奔突。手足生疮朝暮热,不用苦药多是卒。

Qian Yi discussed: The aphonia caused by kidney deficiency resembles true aphonia. After vomiting, diarrhea, and severe illness, although the child has a voice but cannot speak, yet can swallow medicine, this is not aphonia, but kidney deficiency. This is because the kidney qi cannot connect upwards to the yang qi. Treatment should tonify the kidney, using Dihuang Wan (Cistanche Pill) (see the Deficiency-Cold section). Aphonia is usually an acute disease. (From "Ji Family Collection" regarding formulas for children's post-illness loss of voice.)
Suanzaoren (Ziziphi Spinosae Semen, dehusked, 1 qian), Baifuling (Poria, 0.5 qian), Zhusha (Cinnabar, 2 qian).
The above ingredients are ground into powder and formed into pills the size of a bullet. Take one pill each time, administered with Ginseng Decoction.
Shenghui Fang treats children who, after various illnesses, are six or seven years old and still unable to speak. Jitou Wan (Chicken Head Pill) formula:
Xiongjitou (Male chicken head, one, burnt to ash), Chan (Cicada slough, three pieces, slightly fried), Gancao (Licorice Root, roasted until slightly red, chopped), Yuanzhi (Polygalae Radix, dehearted), Mutong (Akebiae Caulis, chopped. Each 0.5 liang), Maimendong (Ophiopogonis Radix, dehearted, baked), Renshen (Ginseng Root, de-rhizome. Each 1 liang), Danggui (Angelicae Sinensis Radix, chopped, slightly fried), Huangqi (Astragali Radix, chopped), Xiongnu (Ligustici Chuanxiong Rhizoma, 0.3 fen each).
The above herbs are crushed, sifted into powder. Mixed with refined honey to form pills the size of mung beans. Take five pills each time with gruel water. Adjust dosage according to the child's age and size; administer at any time. Qian Yi's supplementary formula is the same.
It is said: Long-term use yields results. For chicken and cicada, it is advisable to use those that have died naturally. Do not kill them fresh. As Sun Simiao said, "Killing life to seek life moves further away from life," which must be known.
(Phlegm-Stagnation Accumulation-Mass sections) Ten sections in total.
Mao Xiansheng discusses: Children may have milk accumulation syndrome. Whenever vomited milk or excreted stool has a foul sour odor, this indicates the syndrome. This occurs when the infant cries incessantly and the mother feeds immediately, causing indigestion. Over time, stagnation occurs, leading to cold stomach and this condition. Treatment: First use Dingxiang San (Clove Powder) (see Diarrhea-Dysentery section) to regulate the stomach, then purge solid accumulation using Niuhuang Wan (Calculus Bovis Pill) (see Excess-Heat section). After removing milk accumulation, use Yunqi San (Harmonizing Qi Powder) to tonify (see Stomach Qi Disharmony section). Regularly服用 Jianpi San (Spleen-Tonifying Powder) (see Stomach Qi Disharmony section) leads to recovery.
Mao Xiansheng discusses: Children may have food accumulation syndrome. The abdomen feels slightly hot at night, accompanied by vomiting or diarrhea. This is due to overeating followed by sleep. Treatment: Purge solid accumulation using Niuhuang Wan (Calculus Bovis Pill) to unblock; afterwards use Yunqi San (Harmonizing Qi Powder) to tonify qi. (Both formulas see previous text). Regularly服用 Wanling Wan (Ten Thousand Efficacy Pill) (see this section) leads to recovery.
Mao Xiansheng discusses: Children may have qi accumulation syndrome. Complexion is yellowish-white, lack of appetite, slight abdominal pain, body twisting while crying. This is due to prolonged discomfort from various diseases, transmitting to form qi accumulation. Treatment: Use Wanling Wan (Ten Thousand Efficacy Pill), Yunqi San (Harmonizing Qi Powder), Xingpi San (Spleen-Awakening Powder) (two formulas: one see Stomach Qi Disharmony section, one see Slow Spleen Wind section), and Jianpi San (Spleen-Tonifying Powder) alternately for regulation leads to recovery. (Other formulas see previous text).
Mao Xiansheng discusses: Children may have middle-spleen accumulation syndrome. Complexion is yellow like earth, or yellow with facial puffiness, slight pain above the umbilicus, warm belly, reduced diet, complaining of pain above the umbilicus and in the abdomen immediately after eating, undigested food, slight head heat. This is caused by first eating hard substances, or injury from cold substances affecting the spleen. Treatment: First use Qingjindan (Green Gold Pellet) (see this section) to purge spleen accumulation; afterwards use Yunqi San (Harmonizing Qi Powder) and Xingpi San (Spleen-Awakening Powder) to tonify. Regularly服用 Jianpi San (Spleen-Tonifying Powder) and Wanling Wan (Ten Thousand Efficacy Pill) leads to recovery. (Other formulas and sources same as before).
Mao Xiansheng discusses: Children may have deficiency-middle accumulation syndrome. Slight whole-body heat, no desire to eat, thirst, daytime lethargy, appearing asleep but not waking when held. This syndrome has multiple causes, resulting from prolonged diarrhea leading to deficiency. Treatment: First use Qingjindan (Green Gold Pellet) to clear all abdominal accumulation; afterwards use Yunqi San (Harmonizing Qi Powder) and Xingpi San (Spleen-Awakening Powder) for regulation. Regularly服用 Wanling Wan (Ten Thousand Efficacy Pill) and Bao Tong Wan (Child-Preserving Pill) (see All Malnutrition sections) for regulation leads to recovery. (Other formulas and sources same as before).
Mao Xiansheng discusses: Children may have excess accumulation syndrome. Constipation, wind-toxic sores and boils, throat closure with swollen cheeks, phlegm rattle in the throat. This is due to the child being inherently hungry and fierce, eating without limit, leading to the aforementioned syndromes. Treatment: First use Duoming San (Life-Retrieving Powder) (see Acute/Chronic Convulsion Wind section) to induce vomiting and purge hot phlegm; afterwards use Yunqi San (Harmonizing Qi Powder) and Xingpi San (Spleen-Awakening Powder) for regulation (two formulas see previous text). Regularly服用 Niuhuang Gao (Calculus Bovis Ointment) (see Diaphragm Heat section), Zhenxin Wan (Heart-Calming Pill) (see All Palpitation sections), and Tianzhuhuang San (Bambusae Resina Powder) (see Excess-Heat section) combined leads to recovery. The aforementioned various accumulation syndromes are described clearly, with descending grades of purgatives. If previous accumulation does not recede with regulation, such as blackening complexion, persistent diarrhea, abdominal distension, spontaneous sores on palms, coarse breathing, black stool, emaciation unable to sit or stand, fixed gaze, dry/black nose and mouth, these are death signs and untreatable.
Han Dong Wang Xiansheng's "Jiabao" discusses nine treatable pediatric accumulation diseases:
Facial puffiness is accumulation. Accumulation relates to the spleen. The spleen governs muscles, thus reflecting on the face, indicating spleen accumulation. Spleen belongs to Earth, which has no fixed shape, so swelling varies morning and evening, often worse in the morning; sleeping prevents spleen digestion, causing upper swelling. If this sign appears after illness, it is deficiency-middle accumulation. Suitable for spleen-regulating, accumulation-dispersing, qi-moving medicines.
Face lying flat on the ground is accumulation. Why? Because accumulation is in the spleen, it is cold accumulation. How to know? Spleen likes Earth, so knowing it is in the spleen. Cold belongs to Yin, so knowing it is caused by cold, hard food. Suitable for warming accumulation-dispersing qi medicines.
Abdominal distension is accumulation, located in the lung. How to know? Lung governs qi; upon receiving accumulation, qi becomes cold, causing distension and急促 breathing, indicating lung location. If abdominal distension, first regulate qi then move it; after moving, regulate qi again.
Urine like oil is accumulation, located in the small intestine. How to know? Accumulation receives from spleen, spleen transfers to heart; if heart is not touched, it enters small intestine. Small intestine is the fu organ of heart, so knowing it is in the small intestine. Regulate water passages, urine resembles rice washings or oil.
Jaundice is accumulation, damaging heart qi. Heart governs blood vessels, shading hair; affected by accumulation qi, it turns yellow, indicating heart damage. Suitable for Kongxin San (Empty Heart Powder) (formula not seen) taken on empty stomach, and accumulation-removing medicines. This person likely has intermittent fever.
Red and white dysentery is accumulation. Accumulation is in the lung, transmitted to large intestine, plus external cold injury. How to know? Lung governs West Geng-Xin Metal, color white; red posterior indicates external pathogen. Thus lung transmits to large intestine, causing red-white dysentery; suitable for post-treatment qi regulation.
Yellow-red eyes with blue pupils is accumulation, located in the liver. How to know? Liver governs East Jia-Yi Wood, color green; affected by accumulation qi, it becomes yellow-red. Blue pupils indicate eye belongs to five zang organs, liver is master; if liver receives accumulation, eyes turn blue. If liver accumulation transmits to gallbladder, bitter taste, anorexia, suitable for cooling medicines.
Whole-body puffiness is accumulation, not in zang but in fu. How to know? After previous treatment, medicine activation moves it out of zang to skin causing swelling. Only suitable for purging deficiency-middle accumulation medicines, then tonifying.
Frequent white stool is accumulation, caused by cold, located in spleen. How to know? Spleen governs transformation; cold accumulation in spleen causes slippery white stool, indicating spleen location. Suitable for first moving, then warming tonification.
Han Dong Wang Xiansheng's "Jiabao" discusses six untreatable pediatric accumulation diseases:
急促 breathing is lung accumulation. Lung governs qi;急促 breathing means lung qi exhaustion, face white, no blood color, untreatable.
Black face is kidney accumulation. Black face means kidney qi exhaustion, unable to distinguish good/bad, staring eyes without light, death within one day.
Vomiting hot qi is Ying (nutritive) accumulation. Untreatable because blood exhaustion is incurable. Blood governs heart; heart cannot control, thus hot qi continues.
Sores on hands and feet are Wei (defensive) accumulation. Wei is qi; stomach qi not generated, thus hand/foot sores. If wei exhaustion, qi does not return, death within half a day.
Nausea, vomiting, dry heaving is stomach accumulation. Why untreatable? Stomach governs food transformation; stomach exhaustion causes aversion/vomiting, untreatable. Person likely has undigested milk, dry heaving even without eating, cyan-yellow face, no blood color.
Diarrhea stops then resumes, accumulation bites spleen rotting. How to know spleen rot? Person passes white stool, undigested food, stops, then passes red-black stool and dies, indicating spleen rot untreatable.
Qian Yi discusses: Accumulation disease with warm breath, yellow-white face, dull eyes, excessive white sclera, excessive sleep, fear of eating, or sour-smelling stool, should grind accumulation, suitable Xiaojie Wan (Accumulation-Dissolving Pill) (see this section); severe cases use Baixingzi (White Cake Pill) to purge (see Convulsion Weakness section), then harmonize stomach.
"Tongying Baojian" discusses: Pediatric five accumulations are due to zang qi failing to circulate, accumulating in one place unmoving, hence called accumulation. Heart is Fuliang, above umbilicus; attacks heart upward, stomach downward; Spleen is Piqi, horizontal above stomach; Liver is Feiqi, left of umbilicus; Lung is Xiben, right side of umbilicus; Kidney is Bentun, below umbilicus. Each has changes, not formed by food, but qi accumulation. Zang belongs to Yin, thus stays in one place unmoving.
"Tongying Baojian": Pediatric Ju (Gathering) refers to fu qi lingering and gathering. Fu belongs to Yang, yang qi rotates constantly, thus gathering is not fixed in one place, attacking with abdominal pain. Accumulation-mass signs include yellow-thin complexion, sparse hair, lack of muscle growth, erect hair or edema, urgent abdomen with fatigue, mostly water qi.
"Wuguan Guan Zhenzhu Nang" distinguishes pediatric accumulation signs: Facial puffiness, abdominal distension, excessive sleep, urine like oil, diarrhea-dysentery, yellow eyes, sparse yellow hair, abdominal rumbling, vomiting.
"Wuguan Guan Zhenzhu Nang" discusses deficiency-middle accumulation: Any Jing (startle) deficiency-middle accumulation is caused by startle inducing, then re-startle activating. Stool passed is green and foul. Any deficiency-middle accumulation is caused by food injury leading to diarrhea and vomiting, gradually becoming weak, disease not cured, hence called deficiency accumulation. Also deficiency-middle accumulation, having accumulation but frequent purging/moving fails to remove it, leaving accumulation latent, hence also called deficiency-middle accumulation. If Jing accumulation is purged, stool follows startle turning green. If food accumulation, stool forms lumps. Any Gan (malnutrition) deficiency-middle accumulation is due to Gan disease turning to diarrhea, weakness with Gan not retreating, hence deficiency-middle. Passed stool wraps white.
"Xiao'er Xingzheng Lun" eight diseases. Yang Xuancuo says: Excessive vomiting, excessive diarrhea, excessive fatigue, excessive heat.
Facial swelling, hand/foot swelling is deficiency-middle accumulation. Abdominal distension, anorexia is stomach accumulation. Face down eating soil/charcoal, dysentery pain, large abdomen accumulation. Dark face, fatigue with closed eyes is spleen accumulation. Urine like oil, hand/foot swelling is kidney accumulation. Thirst, persistent diarrhea is bladder accumulation. Abdominal rumbling, red-yellow urine is small intestine accumulation. Excessive vomiting, anorexia is upper diaphragm accumulation.
"Huiyan Guanzheng" zang-fu accumulation signs: Whole-body puffiness is spleen accumulation, long-term purging fails, called deficiency-middle accumulation. First collapse qi, then purge. Abdominal swelling, yellow limbs receives water qi, must purge. Urine like rice washings, liver receives accumulation, this sign uses purging. Yellow hair indicates Gan-Lao syndrome about to emerge, back accumulation, uses purging. Yellow eyes, nasal discharge indicates liver-lung accumulation, called Feng-Gan syndrome, should purge. Red-white stagnant dysentery indicates internal zang-fu accumulation, uses purging. Intestinal rumbling indicates qi-worm syndrome, uses purging. Excessive vomiting, or recent acid-smelling breath can be purged. If already treated, do not hastily purge, fear slow spleen, just regulate. Face down lying indicates worms gathering in heart, uses purging.
"Bao Sheng" discusses pediatric accumulation pulse: (Pulse deep and solid.)
