Pulse Diagnosis: A pulse that is large but powerless upon deep pressure indicates internal injury. The Qi Kou (Cunkou) pulse is two or three times larger than the Ying Shou pulse. If the pulse is urgent, large, and rapid, yet powerless upon deep pressure, it indicates internal injury caused by fatigue. A You Guan (Right Guan) pulse that is wiry, slippery, and deep, or wiry, large, and rapid, or floating, slippery, and rapid, indicates internal injury due to diet. An extremely weak or imperceptible You Guan pulse indicates deficiency and damage of the Spleen and Stomach. A Huan (moderate/relaxed) Left Guan pulse combined with a Xian (wiry) Right Guan pulse indicates Liver Wood overacting on Spleen Earth. A rapid You Guan pulse indicates Stomach Heat; a wiry and slippery pulse indicates Stomach Cold. A Jie (intermittent) pulse indicates injury to the Spleen due to excessive thinking.
Symptoms: Following Li Dongyuan's discussion, an Ying Shou pulse larger than the Qi Kou indicates external injury (exogenous pathogen), while a Qi Kou pulse larger than the Ying Shou indicates internal injury. In external injury, aversion to cold and fever occur simultaneously without interruption; in internal injury, they occur alternately and irregularly. External injury causes aversion to cold that cannot be relieved even by proximity to fire; internal injury causes aversion to cold that resolves with warmth. External injury causes aversion to wind where one cannot tolerate any wind; internal injury causes aversion only to slight drafts. Symptoms of external injury manifest in the nose, causing nasal congestion with strong, forceful breathing; symptoms of internal injury manifest in the mouth, causing loss of taste and abdominal discomfort. External injury involves excess pathogenic factors, leading to loud speech and a progression from mild to severe symptoms; internal injury involves deficiency of Yuan Qi (Original Qi), leading to timid speech and a progression from severe to mild symptoms. External injury causes heat in the back of the hands but not the palms; internal injury causes heat in the palms but not the back of the hands. This is roughly how Li Dongyuan differentiates them. There are cases of pure internal injury without external contraction, and pure external contraction without internal injury; using this method for differentiation makes the distinction clear. Wang Jiezai stated that Li Dongyuan classified injuries from diet and fatigue as diseases of internal deficiency, caused by hunger, irregular meals, and damage to the Spleen and Stomach. Essentially, human life relies on the Spleen and Stomach as the root, depending on dietary nourishment. If care is improper and fatigue leads to excessive damage, losing its nourishing source, Spleen and Stomach Qi becomes deficient and fails to ascend, allowing Yin Fire to sink and generate internal heat; this is not due to food stagnation. Therefore, formulas like Bu Zhong Yi Qi Tang are used. However, if food stagnates and fails to digest, generating heat through constraint, this is "excess following deficiency," belonging to dietary injury, and should be treated with resolving and guiding-out methods. Alternatively, if dietary injury precedes sexual exhaustion, or labor precedes dietary injury, these are cases of deficiency combined with excess, requiring careful examination among these possibilities.
Treatment: Zhu Danxi said that many people suffer from this disease, some with phlegm accumulation, some with external contraction, some with internal heat constraint, and some with dietary injury. The primary treatment is tonifying Yuan Qi, with additional herbs chosen based on the accompanying conditions. For phlegm, use Bu Zhong Yi Qi Tang plus Ban Xia (Pinelliae Rhizoma), administered with Jiang Zhi (Ginger Juice) and Zhu Li (Bamboo Sap). For external contraction, use Bu Zhong Yi Qi Tang plus dispersing herbs such as Fang Feng (Saposhnikoviae Radix), Qiang Huo (Notopterygii Rhizoma et Radix), and Bai Zhi (Angelicae Dahuricae Radix). For food stagnation, use Bu Zhong Yi Qi Tang plus resolving herbs such as Shan Zha (Crataegi Fructus) and Zhi Shi (Aurantii Fructus Immaturus). For Qi deficiency with severe heat, add a small amount of Fu Zi (Aconiti Lateralis Radix Praeparata) to assist the efficacy of Ren Shen (Ginseng Radix et Rhizoma). Lu Shi added that when internal injury and external contraction coexist, their pulse and symptom manifestations overlap and are difficult to distinguish, requiring meticulous investigation. If internal symptoms predominate, internal injury is severe and external contraction is mild; tonification should take precedence, with dispersion secondary. If external symptoms predominate, external contraction is severe and internal injury is mild; dispersion should be urgent, with tonification secondary. This was not covered by Li Dongyuan, so it is appended here for users to consider carefully.
Formulas: Bu Zhong Yi Qi Tang treats injury from labor, characterized by intermittent deficiency heat, weakness in the four limbs, lethargy, and desire to lie down.
