〔贼风偏枯〕
药隐老人云∶偏枯者，其状半身不随，肌肉枯瘦，骨间疼痛，神智如常，名曰偏枯也。
原其疾之由，皆因阴阳偏亏，脏腑怯弱，经络空虚，血气不足，当风冲坐，风邪乘虚而
入。《内经》云∶汗出偏沮，使人偏枯。详其义理，如树木或有一边津液不荫注而先枯槁，
然后被风所害。人之身体，或有一边血气不能荣养而先枯槁，然后被风所苦，其理显然。
王子亨云∶舟行于水，人处于风，水能泛舟而亦能覆舟，风能养体而亦能害体。盖谓船
漏水入，体漏风伤。古人有云∶医风先医血，血行风自灭是也，治之先宜养血，然后驱风，
无不愈者。宜用大八风汤、增损茵芋酒、续断汤。
〔大〕贼风偏枯者，是体偏虚受风，风客于半身也。人有劳伤血气，半身偏虚者，风
乘虚入客于半体，名为偏风也。其风邪入深，真气去，邪气留，发为偏枯，此由血气衰损，
为风所客，令血气不相周荣于肌，故令偏枯也。
〔薛〕医风先医血，此论得之。大抵此证多因胎前产后，失于调养，以致精血干涸，
肝木枯槁，治法当滋其化源。考之《生气通天论》曰∶风客淫气，精乃亡，邪伤肝也。
《阴阳应象大论》曰∶风气通于肝，风搏则热盛，热盛则水干，水干则气不荣，故精乃亡。
此风病之所由作也。一妇人性善怒，常自汗，月经先期。余以为肝火血热，不信，乃

Do not let people worry about whether it is a deficiency syndrome. Whenever wind-pathogen invades and causes anhidrosis (absence of sweating), it is because the couli (pores) are closed, and the pathogen cannot be discharged through sweat; this situation is suitable for treatment with diaphoresis (sweating method). However, if Ephedrae Herba (Mahuang, 麻黄) is used to treat patients with spontaneous sweating, it will cause further depletion and loss of body fluids, resulting in severe harm. For stroke accompanied by spontaneous sweating, although Zhang Zhongjing used Guizhi Tang (Cinnamon Twig Decoction), how can one cure cases where convulsions do not stop, mouth and eyes twitch, and the whole body sweats merely by treating each symptom individually? At such times, Duhuo Tang (Angelica Pubescens Decoction) and Xuming Zhusan (Xuming Boiled Powder) are indispensable as they restore Ying-Wei (Nutritive and Defensive Qi) and expel wind-pathogen.
[Xue Ji] If the aforementioned symptoms involve spontaneous sweating due to insecure couli, use Guizhi Tang (Cinnamon Twig Decoction) or Fangfeng Baizhu Muli San (Saposhnikovia, Atractylodes Macrocephala and Oyster Shell Powder). If spontaneous sweating results from excessive use of wind-expelling drugs, use Baizhu Fangfeng Tang (Atractylodes Macrocephala and Saposhnikovia Decoction). If it is caused by deficient Yang Qi, use Fuzi Tang (Aconite Root Decoction). If accompanied by night sweating, use Buzhong Yiqi Tang (Tonify the Middle and Augment the Qi Decoction) taken with Liuwei Wan (Six-Ingredient Pill with Rehmannia). If ineffective, use Danggui Liuhuang Tang (Angelica Sinensis and Rhizoma Chuanbeimu Decoction).
Duhuo Tang (Angelica Pubescens Decoction) treats dizziness and confusion due to wind-deficiency, unawareness of one's own condition, spasms of hands and feet, inability to sit or lie comfortably, alternating chills and fever, blood deficiency that cannot tolerate diaphoretic drugs, and spontaneous sweating in stroke; it is especially suitable for these conditions.
Chuan Duhuo (Radix Angelicae Pubescentis), Qianghuo (Rhizoma et Radix Notopterygii), Renshen (Radix Ginseng), Fangfeng (Radix Saposhnikoviae), Danggui (Radix Angelicae Sinensis) [remove rhizomes from five herbs], Xixin (Herba Asari), Fushen (Poria cum Radix Pini) [remove wood], Banxia (Rhizoma Pinelliae) [wash seven times in hot water, slice], Guixin (Cortex Cinnamomi), Baiwei (Radix Cynanchi Atrati), Yuanzhi (Radix Polygalae) [remove heart], Shichangpu (Rhizoma Acori Tatarinowii), Chuanxiong (Rhizoma Chuanxiong) [each half liang].

Crush the above ingredients. Take eight qian per dose, add one and a half zhan of water and five slices of fresh ginger, decoct until七分 remains, remove dregs, and take warm at any time.
Xuming Zhusan (Xuming Boiled Powder) treats stagnation of wind-qi causing mental confusion, weakness in four limbs, deviation of mouth and eyes, occasional convulsions, loss of body fluids, thirst, and desire to drink. This formula supports Ying-Wei (Nutritive and Defensive Qi) and dispels empty wind; it is especially suitable for spontaneous sweating in stroke and postpartum stroke with spontaneous sweating.

[Wind of Thieves and Hemiplegia]
The Old Man Yaoyin said: The manifestation of hemiplegia (piangu) is paralysis of half the body, emaciation of muscles, pain between bones, while mental clarity remains normal; this is called hemiplegia. Investigating the origin of this disease, it is all due to imbalance and deficiency of Yin and Yang, weakness of Zang-Fu organs, emptiness of meridians, and insufficiency of Blood and Qi. Sitting in the wind allows the wind-pathogen to enter via deficiency. The *Neijing* states: "Sweating on only one side leads to hemiplegia." Analyzing its meaning, it is like a tree where one side lacks fluid nourishment and dries up first, then suffers damage from wind. Similarly, in the human body, if one side lacks Blood and Qi nourishment and dries up first, it then suffers from wind-pathogen; the principle is clear.
Wang Ziheng said: A boat floats on water but can also capsize; wind nourishes the body but can also harm it. This means just as water leaks into a boat, wind enters a leaking body. The ancients said: "To treat wind, first treat Blood; when Blood flows, wind extinguishes itself." Treatment should first nourish Blood, then expel wind, ensuring recovery. Suitable formulas include Da Bafeng Tang (Great Eight-Wind Decoction), Zengsun Yinyu Jiu (Modified Yinyu Wine), and Xuduan Tang (Dipsacus Decoction).
[Grand Theory] Wind of thieves and hemiplegia occurs when one side of the body is deficient and receives wind, with wind lodging in half the body. People who have injured their Blood and Qi through labor, leaving one side deficient, allow wind-pathogen to enter that half-body, named Pi Feng (Half-Body Wind). If the wind-pathogen penetrates deeply, True Qi departs, and Evil Qi remains, developing into hemiplegia. This is due to decline and damage of Blood and Qi, allowing wind to lodge, preventing Blood and Qi from circulating and nourishing the muscles, thus causing hemiplegia.
[Xue Ji] "To treat wind, first treat Blood" is correct. Generally, this syndrome often arises from poor care during pregnancy or postpartum, leading to exhaustion of Essence and Blood, and desiccation of Liver Wood. The treatment method should nourish the source of transformation. Referencing the *Shengqi Tongtian Lun*: "Wind lodges and disrupts Qi, Essence is lost, and Evil injures the Liver." The *Yinyang Yingxiang Dalun* states: "Wind Qi connects with the Liver; wind constraint causes Heat excess; Heat excess dries Water; dried Water fails to nourish Qi, so Essence is lost." This is how wind diseases arise. A woman prone to anger had frequent spontaneous sweating and early menstruation. I diagnosed Liver Fire and Blood Heat. She did not believe me and indiscriminately used cooling-draining agents, which instead caused delayed menstruation. Later, due to fatigue and anger, she developed trismus (lockjaw), groaning, limb immobility, surging pulses, and red face. I used Bazhen Tang (Eight-Treasure Decoction), Maidong (Ophiopogonis Radix), Wuweizi (Fructus Schisandrae), Zhizi (Fructus Gardeniae), and Danpi (Cortex Moutan). After several doses, she gradually improved. Combined with Xiaoyao San (Free and Easy Wanderer Powder) and Liuwei Wan (Six-Ingredient Pill with Rehmannia), each taken for over thirty doses, she fully recovered.
Da Bafeng Tang (Great Eight-Wind Decoction) treats stroke hemiplegia, aphonia, hemiplegia, and occasional mental confusion.

Place herbs in a silk bag, soak in one dou of wine for ten days. Take one zhan per dose, drink warm.
[Mouth Deviation]
Women with mouth deviation due to wind suffer from body deficiency receiving wind, where wind enters the tendons flanking the mouth. The tendons of the Foot-Yangming Meridian ascend flanking the mouth; if these tendons are deficient on one side, wind enters via deficiency, causing unilateral tendon tension and irregularity, leading to mouth deviation.
[Xue Ji] A woman with emotional depression suffered tendon spasms and bone pain, feeling a lump in the throat. After taking Ushunqi San (Tsaoko Fruit Regulating Qi Powder), she developed facial paralysis, difficulty extending arms, increased phlegm-saliva, internal heat, afternoon fever, poor appetite, and fatigue. I diagnosed Depression-Fire injuring Spleen and Blood Dryness generating Wind. I used Jiawei Guipi Tang (Modified Restore the Spleen Decoction) for twenty doses, improving her physique and diet. Then Jiawei Xiaoyao San (Modified Free and Easy Wanderer Powder) for over ten doses, reducing phlegm-heat and the throat lump. Further, Shengyang Yiewei Tang (Raise Yang and Benefit Stomach Decoction) for several doses, resolving most symptoms. However, arm extension remained impaired due to Liver Blood deficiency causing tendon spasm. I used Liuwei Wan (Six-Ingredient Pill with Rehmannia) to nourish Kidney Water and generate Liver Blood, resulting in recovery.

Sit over a copper basin containing hot water, steaming the medicine. Wash off immediately once the face straightens. (Alternative: Use Badou (Crotonis Fructus) instead of Bamiaz. From *Bencao*).
