In cases of excess heat in children, symptoms include dizziness and redness of the cheeks, a sensation of heat in the mouth, dark and scanty urine resembling bean juice, hard or constipated stools, abdominal urgency. Treatment with Sishun Yinzi (Four Compliance Decoction), Dahuang Puxiao Tang (Rhubarb and Saltpeter Decoction), or Bazhen San (Eight Treasures Powder) is appropriate; once the internal organs are slightly unblocked, peace will be restored. [Yang] states that in excess patterns, the face is deeply red and yellow, breathing is coarse, there is oral heat, dryness and thirst with swollen lips, difficulty in urination and defecation, the child pulls off clothes to expose the body, cries irritably and shouts suddenly. Si Shun Qingliang Yin (Four Compliance Cooling Decoction) with Chaihu (Bupleuri Radix) is indicated. Xue also described syndromes such as lying with the body extended, sleeping with eyes not fully open (exposing the pupils), and heat in the fingers of hands and feet.
Commentary: Excess patterns should be differentiated into exterior and interior. Exterior excess requires sweating (diaphoresis), interior excess requires purgation, and half-exterior half-interior patterns require harmonization. To focus solely on purgation is not a comprehensive theory. For treatment methods and formulas, refer to the "Exterior and Interior" section later. Yunqi stated: For excess heat inside the body in children, use formulas like Sishun Yin; for excess heat above, use emesis. Danxi stated: For pediatric heat diseases, Liu Yi San (Six-One Powder) is an excellent remedy.
