This syndrome is formed by the stagnation of Qi. The so-called [Pi (Piyi, a type of abdominal mass)] refers to strip-like masses on either side of the abdomen; the larger ones are as thick as an arm, and the smaller ones as thin as a finger, also known as "Xian Qi" (Stringy Qi). Pi also refers to lumps in the flanks accompanied by pain. Both conditions are triggered by exposure to wind-cold or emotional anger, and the pulse is often deep and choppy. The treatment requires long-term administration of pill medicines to dissipate the accumulation, and reference should be made to the section on Accumulation and Mass (Ji Ju).

This syndrome arises from frequent fluctuations in the Seven Emotions (Qi Qing), irregular diet, improper regulation of cold and warmth, leading to the coagulation and stagnation of Qi and Blood. Therefore, Jia (a type of movable abdominal mass) is characterized by the knotting of Zang-Fu Qi, presenting with tangible signs. Jia is defined by pain that has no fixed location, appearing superficial and false, and is movable. Upon onset, Qi obstruction causes abdominal pain radiating to both hypochondriac regions, accompanied by irritability and stifling sensation. If stagnation occurs in the collaterals, it may lead to amenorrhea; this should also be treated with pill medicines.

The lower abdomen of women is the pathway of the Chong Mai (Penetrating Vessel) and Ren Mai (Conception Vessel), and is the sea of Blood. Sudden exposure to severe cold allows the pathogen to lodge in the collaterals, causing Qi and Blood to stagnate and struggle against each other, resulting in pain; upon warming, Qi and Blood harmonize and flow freely, and the pain ceases. Internally administer warming and dispersing herbs; externally apply hot salt packs or heated objects to the area. The pulse is often deep and tight. If abdominal pain occurs during menstruation, refer to the Menstrual Regulation section for selected formulas.
