水痘似正痘,外候面红唇赤,眼光如水,咳嗽喷嚏,涕唾稠粘,身热二三日而出,明净如水泡,形如小豆,
皮薄,痂结中心,圆晕更少,易出易靥,温之则痂难落而成烂疮,切忌姜椒辣物,并沐浴冷水,犯之则成姜芥
水肿。自始至终,惟小麦汤为准。
小儿生后,百日内外,半岁以上,忽然眼胞红肿,面青黯色,夜间烦啼,脸如胭脂,此因伏热在内,发之
于外。初则满面如水痘,脚微红而不壮,出没无定,次至颈项,赤如丹砂,名为露丹,以三解散疏散之。
1. Feizao Dan (Flying Stove Erysipelas): Swelling begins at the head and neck, then spreads outward. First, crush green onion whites to extract natural juice and apply it topically for effectiveness.
2. Zouzhao Dan (Running Stove Erysipelas): Redness and swelling begin at the head and neck, accompanied by extreme pain. Use red rice beans ground into powder, mixed with egg white for topical application.

4. Tianhuo Dan (Heavenly Fire Erysipelas): Red spots appear on the back. Cut Sangbaipi (Morus Alba Cortex), dry by roasting, grind into fine powder, and mix with sheep fat for topical application.
5. Tianzhao Dan (Heavenly Stove Erysipelas): Redness and swelling appear on both arms, starting with yellowish discoloration. Burn willow wood into charcoal, grind into powder, and mix with clean water for topical application.
6. Shuidan (Water Erysipelas): Redness and swelling first appear on both flanks. Grind rusted iron from many years to obtain a thick liquid, mix with pig fat for topical application.
7. Hulu Dan (Gourd Erysipelas): Onset begins below the umbilicus. Cut sharp Areca catechu seeds (Binglang), dry by roasting, grind into powder, and mix with rice vinegar for topical application.
8. Yehuo Dan (Wild Fire Erysipelas): Redness and swelling first appear on both feet. Remove oil from Ruixiang (Boswellia Carterii Resin), grind into powder, and mix with sheep fat for topical application.

In cases where fetal toxin is severe, erysipelas covers the entire body. Quickly use Yuntaizi (Brassica Napus Seed, Rapeseed), weigh one liang, add one large pot of wine, grind together, filter to remove dregs, take the wine, boil again for several boils, and drink one cup warm at any time.
Another prescription: Yuntaicai (Brassica Napus, Rape Vegetable). Take fresh leaves, crush and apply as a poultice; it dissipates immediately. If fresh vegetables are unavailable, dry them, grind into powder, and mix with water for topical application. For erysipelas covering the whole body or encircling the waist, which cannot be cured by various methods, this prescription is the most miraculous.
Shuidou (Chickenpox) resembles Zhengdou (Smallpox). External signs include red face and lips, eyes bright like water, coughing and sneezing, thick and sticky nasal discharge and saliva. Fever lasts two to three days before eruption. The rash is clear and clean like water blisters, shaped like small beans, with thin skin. Scabs form with a central depression and fewer surrounding halos. It is easy to erupt and heal. Over-warming makes scabs difficult to fall off, leading to ulcerated sores. Strictly avoid ginger, pepper, and spicy foods, as well as bathing in cold water; violating these rules leads to Jiangjie Shuizhong (Ginger-Mustard Edema). Throughout the course, Xiaomai Tang (Wheat Decoction) is the standard treatment.
Infants, within one hundred days after birth or around half a year old, suddenly present with swollen and red eyelids, dark cyan facial complexion, nighttime restlessness and crying, and a face red like rouge. This is due to latent heat inside the body manifesting externally. Initially, the face looks like chickenpox, with slightly red but not robust legs, appearing and disappearing unpredictably. Subsequently, it spreads to the neck and nape, becoming red like cinnabar, named Ludan (Dew Erysipelas), treated with Sanjie San (Three-Release Powder) to disperse it.
