Zhang Xian said: In summary, children are suitable for tonification rather than dispersion; this can be summarized in one sentence. Rashes (Zhen) are a type of heat syndrome and should not be treated with Ren Shen (Ginseng Root) or Bai Zhu (Atractylodes Rhizome). One should use blood-nourishing herbs, decoct them in water, and differentiate the disease according to the affected meridians. Observe the color of the child's Shan Gen (root of the nose); it is necessary to wash away the dust on the face and examine it carefully. Whenever rashes first appear, children will inevitably have fever and thirst.
Four-Season Rash Formula: Xuan Shen (Scrophularia Root) 3 qian, Mai Dong (Ophiopogon Tuber) 2 qian, Su Ye (Perilla Leaf) 1 qian, Sheng Ma (Cimicifuga Rhizome) 5 fen, Tian Hua Fen (Trichosanthes Root) 1 qian, Jin Yin Hua (Honeysuckle Flower) 3 qian, Chen Pi (Tangerine Peel) 3 qian, Ban Xia (Pinellia Tuber) [Note: Original text says "Xia", inferred as Ban Xia based on formula logic], Bai Shao (White Peony Root) 2 qian, Chai Hu (Bupleurum Root) 1 qian, Dang Gui (Angelica Sinensis Root) 1 qian, Chen Pi (Tangerine Peel) 5 fen, Jing Jie (Schizonepeta Spike) 8 fen, Fang Feng (Saposhnikovia Root) 3 fen, Sheng Di Huang (Rehmannia Root) 2 qian, Gan Cao (Licorice Root) 1 qian, Jie Geng (Platycodon Root) 1 qian, Mai Dong (Ophiopogon Tuber) 1 qian, Ge Gen (Kudzu Root) 1 qian. Decoct in water and take two doses; severe cases will surely improve.
Another Divine Efficacy Formula for Summer Rashes: Su Ye (Perilla Leaf) 1 qian, Mai Dong (Ophiopogon Tuber) 2 qian, Jie Geng (Platycodon Root) 1 qian, Sheng Gan Cao (Raw Licorice Root) 1 qian, Xuan Shen (Scrophularia Root) 3 qian, Qing Hao (Artemisia Annua Herb) 3 qian, Chai Hu (Bupleurum Root) 1 qian, Fu Ling (Poria) 2 qian, Jie Geng (Platycodon Root) 1 qian, Sheng Gan Cao (Raw Licorice Root) 5 fen, Huang Qin (Scutellaria Root) 5 fen, Zhu Ye (Bamboo Leaf) 10 slices, Deng Cao (Juncus Effusus Stem) 1 bundle. Decoct in water and take.
For difficult cases: Ren Shen (Ginseng Root) 1 qian, Bai Zhu (Atractylodes Rhizome) 1 qian, Fu Ling (Poria) 1 qian, Gan Cao (Licorice Root) 3 fen, Jie Geng (Platycodon Root) 3 fen (to raise and lift the Qi), decoct in water and take. For symptoms such as purple, dry, dark, and depressed skin lesions, use Da Huang (Rhubarb Root) 3 qian and Chan Tui (Cicada Slough) 5 fen [text incomplete].
If there are blue veins appearing straight on the Shan Gen (root of the nose), it indicates Liver Heat. Chai Hu (Bupleurum Root) 3 fen, Bai Shao (White Peony Root) 1 qian, Dang Gui (Angelica Sinensis Root) 5 fen, Ban Xia (Pinellia Tuber) 3 qian, Bai Zhu (Atractylodes Rhizome) 5 fen... [Text is fragmented here, likely including Ya [Sprouts] and Zi [Seeds/Fruits] additions]. Add Bai Dou Kou (Cardamom Fruit) 1 qian for certain conditions. If the body has fever, this formula should not be used; I have separately established another formula called Wan Jin Tang (Ten Thousand Gold Decoction). For any child with fever, regardless of whether it occurs day or night, this formula is divinely effective.
