[Symptoms of Dampness Diarrhea] Stools are watery with hyperactive bowel sounds, the abdomen is surprisingly painless, the body feels heavy and painful, or there may be vomiting without thirst; this is diarrhea caused by dampness.
[Etiology of Dampness Diarrhea] Prolonged rainy and humid weather, where the damp earth qi dominates, injures the Taiyin Spleen channel due to excessive dampness invasion, causing people to suffer from diarrhea.
[Pulse of Dampness Diarrhea] Commonly presents as a Ru (Soggy) pulse (floating and fine/soft), or a Xi Se (Fine and Choppy) pulse (fine and unsmooth), or a Fu Huan (Floating and Slow) pulse.
[Treatment of Dampness Diarrhea] The appropriate method is to dry dampness and promote urination. Formulas include Weiling San (Stomach Regulating Powder) and Pingwei San (Stomach-Pacifying Powder). If accompanied by body pain and fever, with a floating pulse indicating the need for sweating, use Baidu San (Decoction to Rescue the Vitality) or Qianghuo Shengshi Tang (Notopterygium Decoction to Overcome Dampness). If urination is difficult, use Mutong Jian (Akebia Decoction) combined with Wuling San (Five-Ingredient Powder with Poria), or take Liuyi San (Six-to-One Powder) with Ginger Decoction. By promoting urination, dampness will naturally depart, and diarrhea will cease.
Weiling San: See Wind Diarrhea section previously.
Pingwei San:
Cangzhu (Rhizoma Atractylodis Macrocephalae), Houpo (Cortex Magnoliae Officinalis), Chenpi (Pericarpium Citri Reticulatae), Gancao (Radix Glycyrrhizae).
Baidu San: See Cold-Damp Swelling section.
Qianghuo Shengshi Tang:
Cangzhu (Rhizoma Atractylodis Macrocephalae), Fangfeng (Radix Saposhnikoviae), Qianghuo (Rhizoma et Radix Notopterygii), Huangbai (Cortex Phellodendri), Zexie (Rhizoma Alismatis), Baifuling (Poria Cum Lignum Pinus et Lignum Quercum), Chenpi (Pericarpium Citri Reticulatae), Gancao (Radix Glycyrrhizae).
For cold-dampness, add Shengjiang (Rhizoma Zingiberis Recens). For damp-heat, add Huanglian (Rhizoma Coptidis).
Wuling San:
Liuyi San: Both formulas are seen in the Wind Diarrhea section previously.
[Symptoms of Accumulated Heat Diarrhea] Fever and thirst, heat felt on the abdominal skin, occasional abdominal pain, red and scanty/difficult urination, passage of yellow frothy stools, a sensation of heaviness and stagnation in the anus, alternating constipation and diarrhea; these are symptoms of accumulated heat diarrhea.
[Etiology of Accumulated Heat Diarrhea] Consumption of rich, greasy, and refined foods, as well as alcoholic, damp, spicy, fragrant, and drying substances, accumulates internally over time. Accumulated dampness transforms into heat, which steams upward in the stomach and moves downward... [Text cuts off here].
[Pulse of Accumulated Heat Diarrhea] The pulse must be Chen Shu (Deep and Rapid). Deep indicates accumulation; rapid indicates heat. A deep-rapid pulse on the right side indicates accumulated heat in the Qi level. A deep-rapid pulse on the left side indicates accumulated heat in the Blood level. When accumulated heat lies dormant internally, the pulse may appear Cu Jie (Hasty and Intermittent).
[Treatment of Accumulated Heat Diarrhea] If the right pulse is rapid and large, use Huanglian Zhike Tang (Coptis and Aurantium Decoction) added with Liuyi San to clear the intestines and stomach. If accompanied by abdominal pain and an urge to defecate but inability to do so, use Dahuang Zhike Tang (Rhubarb and Aurantium Decoction), or add Xuanmingfen (Refined Mirabilite); this employs the "treat obstruction with purgatives" (Tong Yin Tong Yong) method. If vital energy is deficient yet accumulated heat is severe, for clearing heat use Huanglian Zhike Tang with Renshen (Radix Ginseng); for purging, use Dahuang Zhike Tang with Renshen. If the left Guan position pulse is rapid, use Longdan Xiegan Tang (Gentian Liver-Draining Decoction); if the right Guan position pulse is rapid...
