(附∶脱肛)
经曰∶因而饱食，筋脉横解，肠癖为痔。多由饱食用力，或恣浓味；醉饱房劳，热毒蕴蓄；
或强忍败精及过服固精药饵，停积归注；或怒动肝火，火侮燥金，毒聚肛门；或脾胃湿热，下迫
大肠，不胜枚举，更兼六淫七情而成。痔有七种∶肛边肉珠，时出脓血，名牡痔；肛疮肿突，如 出血，名牝
痔；疮血淋漓，痛而复痒，名脉痔；肿核脱肛，往来寒热，名肠痔；始如肠风，清血时下，名血
痔；并酷饮而成，名酒痔；忧怒则发，名气痔也；破溃日久，脓血水出，名痔漏。欲调治，须断
房室，戒浓味、怒气。脉沉小实易治，洪大软弱难治。

(Attachment: Rectal Prolapse)
The Classics state: "Due to overeating, the sinews and vessels become loose and relaxed, leading to intestinal dysentery which manifests as hemorrhoids." This is mostly caused by exertion after full meals, or indulgence in rich and strong-flavored foods; sexual activity while drunk and full, causing heat-toxin to accumulate; forcibly retaining semen or overusing astringent medicines, causing stale essence to stagnate and settle in the anus; anger stirring up Liver Fire, where Fire insults Dryness-Metal (Lung/Large Intestine), causing toxin to gather in the anus; or Damp-Heat in the Spleen and Stomach pressing downward into the Large Intestine. There are countless other causes, compounded by the Six Evils (Wind, Cold, Summer-heat, Dampness, Dryness, Fire) and Seven Emotions (Joy, Anger, Worry, Pensiveness, Sadness, Fear, Fright).
There are seven types of hemorrhoids: Flesh nodules at the anal margin with intermittent pus and blood discharge are called *Mu Zhi* (Male Hemorrhoid); anal sores swelling and protruding with bleeding appearance are called *Pin Zhi* (Female Hemorrhoid); continuous dripping of blood from sores, alternating pain and itching, are called *Mai Zhi* (Vein Hemorrhoid); swollen nodes prolapsing from the anus accompanied by alternating chills and fever are called *Chang Zhi* (Intestinal Hemorrhoid); resembling *Chang Feng* (Wind in the Intestines) with fresh blood intermittently discharged, are called *Xue Zhi* (Blood Hemorrhoid); formed due to excessive drinking, are called *Jiu Zhi* (Wine Hemorrhoid); triggered by worry and anger, are called *Qi Zhi* (Qi Hemorrhoid); chronic ulceration with prolonged discharge of pus, blood, and water, are called *Zhi Lou* (Hemorrhoidal Fistula). To treat these, one must abstain from sexual intercourse, avoid rich flavors, and control anger. A pulse that is deep, small, and solid indicates an easy cure; a pulse that is surging, large, weak, and soft indicates a difficult cure.
