The pulse at the Cun (inch) position is deep, large, and slippery. A deep pulse indicates excess [solid pathogen], while a slippery pulse indicates Qi stagnation. When excess and Qi contend with each other, if Blood and Qi enter the Zang organs, death ensues; if they enter the Fu organs, recovery occurs. This condition is termed *Cu Jue* (Sudden Syncope). The patient loses consciousness; if the lips are cyanotic and the body cold, it indicates invasion of the Zang organs, leading to death. If the body remains warm and sweat issues spontaneously, it indicates invasion of the Fu organs, and the patient will recover naturally.
(Alternatively written as "Jing" / Spasm)
In Taiyang disease, characterized by fever, absence of sweating, and aversion to cold, it is named *Gang Jing* (Yang Spasm/ stiff spasm).
In Taiyang disease, characterized by fever, presence of sweating, and absence of aversion to cold, it is named *Rou Jing* (Yin Spasm / flaccid spasm).
In Taiyang disease, with fever but a deep and fine pulse, it belongs to the category of *Jing* (Spasm).
If Taiyang disease is treated with diaphoresis (sweating), leading to *Jing* disease: the body is hot while the feet are cold, the neck and nape are stiff and rigid, there is aversion to cold, occasional heat in the head, facial redness, congestion of the eye vessels, and only the head trembles, this is diagnosed as *Jing*. (Commentary states: Only head and face trembling, sudden locking of the jaw, and opisthotonos [back bending backward] constitute *Jing* disease.) In Taiyang disease, with no sweating, abnormally scanty urination, Qi rushing upward to the chest, locking of the jaw preventing speech, and impending *Gang Jing*, *Gegen Tang* (Kudzu Decoction) is indicated. In cases of *Gang Jing*, with chest fullness, locked jaw, inability to lie flat due to severe opisthotonos, cramped legs, and likely teeth grinding, *Da Chengqi Tang* (Major Order the Qi Decoction) may be used.
For *Jing* disease, after inducing sweating, if the pulse resembles a snake moving (winding), and sudden abdominal distension occurs, it indicates impending resolution. If the pulse remains unchanged or becomes hidden and wiry, *Jing* will recur. (Alternative view: An emerging pulse indicates recovery.)
The pulse comes feeling pounding and wiry upon pressure, running straight up and down.
In *Jing* patients, the pulse is hidden and firm, running straight up and down.
In wind diseases, purgation leads to worsening. Re-inducing sweating will inevitably cause limb rigidity.
In Taiyang disease, where symptoms are complete, the body is stiff, appearing rigid and unyielding, with a deep and slow pulse, this is *Jing*, treated with *Gualou Guizhi Tang* (Trichosanthes Root and Cinnamon Twig Decoction). Patients with a history of *Jing* who have moxibustion sores are difficult to treat. Those with chronic sores, even if experiencing body pain, must not undergo diaphoresis, as sweating will lead to *Jing*. In Taiyang disease, with painful and vexing joints and a deep, slow pulse, it is *Zhong Shi* (Attacked by Dampness). (Commentary states: *Zhong Shi* constitutes Bi syndrome of dampness; signs include difficult urination and loose stools; treatment should promote urination.) Patients suffering from whole-body pain (or painful vexation), fever, worsening in the late afternoon, suffer from Wind-Damp. This results from sweating followed by exposure to wind, or long-term exposure to cold.
In patients prone to dampness (*Shi Jia*), the disease manifests as whole-body pain, fever, and a sallow-yellow complexion. Such patients sweat only on the head, experience back stiffness, and desire warmth from blankets or fire. Premature purgation leads to hiccups or chest fullness, with normal (or difficult) urination, and a tongue coating resembling moss. This indicates heat in the Lower Burner (Dantian) and cold in the Upper Burner (Chest), causing thirst without ability to drink, resulting in dry mouth.
Purgation in damp-prone patients, accompanied by sweating on the forehead, slight panting, and normal (or difficult) urination, indicates death. Profuse diarrhea also indicates death.
Question: In Wind-Damp contention causing body pain, diaphoresis is the standard cure. However, during continuous rainy weather, despite the physician's advice to sweat, the illness persists. Why? Answer: If sweating is excessive, only the wind pathogen is expelled, while dampness remains, hence no recovery. To treat Wind-Damp, induce mild sweating ("slightly moistening"), so that both wind and dampness are eliminated together.
For damp-prone patients with painful vexation, *Mahuang Tang* (Ephedra Decoction) plus four liang of *Baizhu* (Atractylodes Macrocephala Rhizome) is appropriate for diaphoresis. Fire therapy must be strictly avoided.
In Wind-Damp disease, with a floating pulse, heavy body, sweating, and aversion to wind, *Fangji Tang* (Stephania Tetrandra Decoction) is indicated.
A patient suffers from asthma, headache, nasal congestion, and vexation, with a large pulse, yet eats well and has a harmonious abdomen. The pathology lies in Cold-Damp in the head, causing nasal congestion; administering medication into the nose will cure it. (Commentary states: Damp-prone patients with body pain, fever, yellow face, asthma, headache, nasal obstruction, and vexation.) After eight or nine days of Cold Damage, Wind-Damp contends, causing body pain and inability to turn over, without vomiting or thirst, and with a floating, deficient, and choppy pulse, *Guizhi Fuzi Tang* (Cinnamon Twig and Prepared Aconite Decoction) is indicated. If the stool is hard and urination is spontaneous, *Zhu Fuzi Tang* (Atractylodes and Prepared Aconite Decoction) is indicated. In Wind-Damp contention, joint pain and vexation, pulling pain preventing flexion and extension, exacerbated by touch, sweating, shortness of breath, difficult urination, aversion to wind with desire to keep clothes on, or slight edema, are treated with *Gancao Fuzi Tang* (Licorice and Prepared Aconite Decoction).
Taiyang Heat Stroke (*Ye*) is characterized by sweating, aversion to cold, body heat, and thirst, treated with *Baihu Tang* (White Tiger Decoction).
Taiyang Summerheat (caused by cold water injury), with body heat, painful heaviness, and a weak pulse, results from summer consumption of cold water entering the skin, treated with *Gua Di Tang* (Melon Seed Decoction).
Taiyang Summerheat, with fever, aversion to cold, heavy body and pain, wiry-fine-empty-slow pulse, chills after urination, cold extremities, heat upon slight exertion, open-mouth breathing, and dry incisors. Diaphoresis worsens aversion to cold; warming needles increase heat; repeated purgation exacerbates strangury.
