The Stomach is regarded as the Sea of Water and Grain, connecting upwards to the pharynx. Food enters and stays inside without leaking out. If symptoms of vomiting and regurgitation appear during the initial fever stage, this is caused by Fire Evil invading the Stomach, leading to rebellious Qi; treatment is relatively easy. However, if these symptoms persist from the onset of rash until scabbing, it indicates that the pox lesions have gathered at the pharyngeal gate and attacked the epigastrium, causing difficulty in swallowing; treatment is difficult. Due to a lack of knowledge on how to preemptively resolve pharyngeal pathogenic factors, the condition may gradually deteriorate into loss of voice and choking on water, becoming incurable. Chu Yushi stated: For vomiting and regurgitation caused by smallpox, if there is no phlegm, use Yihuang San (Spleen). If there is phlegm, use Erchen Tang (for Phlegm-Fluids in General Practice) or Jupi Banxia Tang. If vomiting does not cease, add Dingxiang (suitable for those with Stomach Cold; for Stomach Heat, it is suitable to add Luzhen, Maogen, Pipaye, and Huanglian). If both vomiting and diarrhea occur, Yihuang San, Chen's Muxiang San, and Yigong San are also suitable.
If vomiting is accompanied by fever, restlessness, thirst, abdominal distension, panting, scanty urination and defecation, and a red face, one should promote diuresis. If the condition does not improve, Xuanfeng San should be used to purge (for smallpox fever). [Xue] Regarding the aforementioned syndromes: if the hands and feet are cold, there is a desire to drink hot soup, or abdominal pain occurs, this indicates deficiency-cold of Middle Qi, and Yihuang San is suitable. If the hands and feet are not cold, but vomiting produces phlegm and saliva, this indicates weakness of Middle Qi, and Jupi Banxia Tang is suitable. If the hands and feet are hot, this indicates stagnation of Heat-Toxin, and Daochi San is suitable. If the mouth is dry and breastfeeding is incomplete, this indicates Qi-Heat in the Stomach Meridian, and Zhuru Tang is suitable. If vomiting prevents breastfeeding, or sour, foul-smelling vomit is expelled, this indicates Spleen Qi deficiency with stagnation of milk and food, and Zhizhu Wan is suitable. If sudden, continuous severe vomiting occurs during the initial fever stage, this is due to rebellious Fire Qi, and Zhulian San is the primary prescription.

If there are no above symptoms but only dry retching or hiccups, humans rely on Stomach Qi as the root. The Stomach belongs to Earth; when Earth fails, Wood insults it. Now, Wood carries the momentum of Ministerial Fire, attacking the Stomach from above. The Qi rises directly from below the umbilicus through the clear pathways, emerging from the贲门 (cardia/upper stomach opening). Mild cases result in dry retching, while severe cases result in hiccups, which is a sign of Earth failure. *Tai Su* states: "When a string breaks, its sound becomes hoarse and ruined; when a tree ages, its leaves fall; when disease is deep, the patient makes hiccup sounds. Short needles are ineffective, and toxic drugs cannot attack; this refers to an untreatable condition."
