(Note: Pruritus)
The *Neijing* (Classic of Internal Medicine) states: The meridians of the twelve channels are distributed in the skin. The onset of various diseases always begins at the hair follicles and skin. When pathogenic factors invade, the interstices (*Couli*) open; once opened, pathogens enter the collaterals. If they remain there without being expelled, they transmit to the main meridians; if they still remain, they transmit to the fu organs, ultimately affecting the intestines and stomach. Therefore, the skin has specific regional distributions. If lesions occur in these regions and are not treated, major diseases will develop. It is also stated that the Lung governs the skin and hair; in the zang organs it corresponds to the Lung, and in the body structures it corresponds to the skin. Thus, if Qi fails to nourish, the skin and hair become dry and brittle; if body fluids are depleted, the nails wither and hair breaks off, potentially leading to death. "Skin suoze" refers to what is called "skin like armor scales" (*Jiacuo*), characterized by skin that is stagnant, unsmooth, and lacks luster, presenting as dryness or pain. Treatment should focus on generating blood, nourishing vitality, and moistening dryness. The pulse is floating and choppy at the right Cun position.
Main Formula: Huanglian (Coptidis Rhizoma), Huangqin (Scutellariae Radix), Danggui (Angelicae Sinensis Radix), Shengdi (Rehmanniae Radix), Maidong (Ophiopogonis Tuber) (each 1.5 qian); Xuanshen (Scrophulariae Radix), Chaihu (Bupleuri Radix), Qinjiao (Gentianae Macrophyllae Radix), Gange (Puerariae Lobatae Radix) (each 1 qian); Baizhi (Angelicae Dahuricae Radix) (0.6 fen); Shengma (Cimicifugae Rhizoma), Gancao (Glycyrrhizae Radix et Rhizoma) (each 0.4 fen). Add three slices of Shengjiang (Zingiberis Rhizoma Recens) and one cun of Congtou (Allii Cepae Bulbus) to the above. Decoct in water, take hot, aiming for a slight sweating.
The *Neijing* states: All pruritus is due to deficiency. Since the Lung governs Qi and controls the skin and hair, if Lung Qi is obstructed, stagnation and solidification generate internal heat and wind. The treatment should clear heat and disperse wind, cool the blood and dissipate stagnation. Take Fangfeng Tongsheng San (Wind-Protecting Universal Powder) to induce slight sweating; if no sweat occurs, use Jiang (Zingiberis Rhizoma), Congbai (Allii Fistulosi Bulbus), and Zisu (Perillae Folium) decoction to assist. For deficient individuals with insufficient middle Qi, where defensive Qi deficiency causes itching, use Buzhong Yiqi Tang (Tonify the Middle and Boost Qi Decoction) added with Fangfeng (Saposhnikoviae Radix), Xiong (Chuanxiong Rhizoma), and Baizhi (Angelicae Dahuricae Radix).
Main Formula: Xuanshen (Scrophulariae Radix), Shengma (Cimicifugae Rhizoma), Baizhi (Angelicae Dahuricae Radix) (each 1 qian); Chantui (Cicadae Periostracum), Fangfeng (Saposhnikoviae Radix), Huangqin (Scutellariae Radix), Chuanxiong (Chuanxiong Rhizoma) (each 0.7 fen); Gancao (Glycyrrhizae Radix et Rhizoma) (0.4 fen). Add one cun of Congbai (Allii Fistulosi Bulbus) to the above. Decoct in water and take.
