*Huoren Shu* states: When a person is injured by dampness and simultaneously struck by summerheat, it is called Damp-Warmth (Shi Wen). Symptoms include coldness reversing up from the lower legs, abdominal fullness, headache and eye pain, delirious speech, and profuse sweating. The pulse is floating and weak at the Yang position, and small and rapid at the Yin position. Treat with Ling Fu Bai Zhu Tang (Poria and Atractylodes Decoction) or Bai Hu Jia Cang Zhu Tang (White Tiger plus Coix Seed Decoction). Do not induce sweating; if mistakenly induced, it is termed Zhong Yue (Heatstroke injury to Qi), which leads to death. Wu cites *Huoren Shu*, stating that Shu Fu Tang (Aconite and Atractylodes Decoction) added with Ren Shen (Ginseng), Xiang Ru (Elsholtzia), and Bian Dou (Lablab Bean) should be used. *Yizong Jinjian* (Golden Mirror of Medical Tradition) states: When Warm Disease (Wen Bing) is re-injured by dampness, it is called Damp-Warmth. Symptoms include coldness reversing up from the lower legs, delirious speech, profuse sweating, headache, heavy body, and chest fullness. It is suitable to use Bai Hu Jia Cang Zhu Tang (White Tiger plus Coix Seed Decoction) and Fu Ling Bai Zhu Tang (Poria and Atractylodes Decoction) to treat both warmth and dampness simultaneously. If the pulse is large and forceful, with spontaneous sweating, irritability, and thirst, Ren Shen Bai Hu Tang (Ginseng White Tiger Decoction) added with Bai Zhu (Atractylodes Macrocephala) should be used. For mild cases, Shi Wei Xiang Ru Yin (Ten-Ingredient Elsholtzia Decoction) or Qing Shu Yi Qi Tang (Clear Summerheat and Benefit Qi Decoction) can be used with modifications. Examining ancient treatment methods, they are no more than this. However, *Yizong Jinjian* states that Warm Disease re-injured by dampness is called Damp-Warmth, whereas *Huoren Shu* states that being injured by dampness and then struck by summerheat is called Damp-Warmth. Interpreting the meaning, one should follow *Yizong Jinjian* as correct. Because being injured by dampness and then by summerheat can only be termed Summerheat-Dampness Injury, not Damp-Warmth. What is called Damp-Warmth is dampness combined with Plague-Warmth (Epidemic Warmth). Whether one first contracts Plague-Warmth and then suffers dampness, or first suffers dampness and then contracts Plague-Warmth, what does this have to do with summerheat? Only plague-warmth combined with dampness is hardest to distinguish. □□□□□□□□□□□□□□□□□□□ Only when there is pain throughout the entire body, so severe that turning over is impossible, aversion to drinking soups/waters, vision appearing red and yellow, slight yellowing of the body and eyes, without delirium and other symptoms, can it be distinguished. Among damp syndromes, there is a distinction between Damp-Heat and Cold-Damp. Generally, Bai Zhu Fu Ling Tang (Atractylodes and Poria Decoction) is suitable. For Damp-Heat, urine is red and scanty like horse urine, turbid and white-colored, accompanied by irritability, heat sensation, and constipation. Ren Shen Bai Hu Tang (Ginseng White Tiger Decoction) added with Bai Zhu (Atractylodes Macrocephala) is suitable, or Si Ling San (Four Poria Powder), Da Xiao Li Qing Yin (Large and Small Clearing Decoctions), Yin Chen Yin (Artemisia Capillaris Decoction), etc., can be selected. If it rains continuously for a long time, dampness is excessive, the person's internal organs are deficient, stool is loose, and urine is clear, this is Cold-Damp. Shu Fu Tang (Aconite and Atractylodes Decoction) is suitable. However, plague-warmth occurs in hot seasons, and combined with Damp-Heat is common, while combined with Cold-Damp is rare; thus, Shu Fu Tang should not be used. If Fu Ling Bai Zhu □□□□□□□□ and other decoctions are ineffective, then Chu Shi Da Yuan Yin (Damp-Removing Da Yuan Decoction) should be used to treat plague and damp separately, truly achieving two benefits with one move. In the North, wind is high and soil is dry, so few suffer from this. Only in the South, water towns are low and damp, weather is hot, and patients are numerous. Spring and winter infections are rare, while summer and autumn patients are many. Treatment should be adapted according to time and place. As previously cited, *Huoren Shu* says: Damp-Warmth must not induce sweating, while *Jin Gui Yao Lue* (Essential Prescriptions of the Golden Cabinet) says: For those with dampness suffering bodily irritability and pain, Ma Huang Jia Bai Zhu Tang (Ephedra plus Atractylodes Decoction) to induce sweating is appropriate. *Jing Yue Quan Shu* (Complete Works of Jingyue) also states: For damp entering from outside, disperse with sweating; implying that only those struck by dampness should sweat, but those combined with warmth should not. Why does *Zhun Sheng* in the Damp-Warmth section cite *Huoren Shu* saying sweating is inappropriate, yet cite *Jin Gui* saying it is appropriate, and further cite Cheng Shi saying dampness sufferers recover after sweating? Thus, the Damp-Warmth section contradicts itself前后, which is hard to understand. My opinion is that plague-warmth should never induce sweating throughout its course. Although combined with dampness strike, the plague-warmth remains the primary pathogen. Therefore, plague-warmth takes precedence, and dampness strike is secondary; inducing sweating is inappropriate. One should use harmonizing and draining methods, treating the plague-warmth first. Wait for natural sweating to occur; then dampness will exit with the sweat, resolving together with the plague-warmth. Or if plague-warmth resolves but dampness remains, seek treatment within the Damp Syndrome section; therefore, various formulas for treating dampness are not listed.
Chu Shi Da Yuan Yin (Self-formulated New Formula.)
Bing Lang (Areca Seed, 2 qian) Cao Guo Ren (Tsaoko Cardamom Fruit Kernel, 5 fen, crushed) Nong Po (Magnolia Bark, 1 qian, stir-fried with ginger juice) Bai Shao (White Peony Root, 1 qian) Gan Cao (Licorice Root, 1 qian)
Zhi Zi (Gardenia Fruit, 5 fen, crushed) Huang Bo (Phellodendron Bark, 5 fen, wine-fried) Fu Ling (Poria, 3 qian)
If symptoms of the Three Yang meridians are present, still add Chai Hu (Bupleurum), Ge Gen (Kudzu Root), Qiang Huo (Notopterygium Rhizome) as appropriate. Because plague-warmth combines with dampness, Zhi Mu (Anemarrhena) is removed and replaced with Huang Bo (Phellodendron) to dry dampness and preserve fluids while benefiting the bladder; Huang Qin (Scutellaria) is removed and replaced with Zhi Zi (Gardenia) to drain Triple Burner fire and promote downward urination; Fu Ling (Poria) is added to benefit urination and strengthen the Spleen and Stomach. With these three prepared, damp-heat is eliminated. Adding Qiang Huo (Notopterygium Rhizome) and other drugs, wind-drugs can also overcome dampness. Dampness removed, warmth dispersed, achieving two benefits with one move. (The dosages in this formula are approximate; adjust according to clinical presentation.)
Shi Cao San (Stone-Caoli Powder) (Treats Damp-Warmth with profuse sweating, delirious speech, irritability, and thirst.)
Shi Gao (Gypsum Fibrosum, ) Zhi Cao (Honey-fried Licorice Root, equal parts)
Grind into powder, mix with Jiang Shui (Fermented Rice Water), take 2 qian orally.
