Zhu Danxi stated: After the pus has drained, when swelling subsides and muscles relax, pain should gradually decrease. If pain instead intensifies, this indicates a deficiency syndrome, which requires tonification. (Use Tuoli Xiaodu San [Toxin-Expelling and Toxin-Detoxifying Decoction], removing the last three herbs from the formula, and adding Ren Shen [Ginseng Radix et Rhizoma], Dang Gui [Angelicae Sinensis Radix], and Di Huang [Rehmanniae Radix].) If the pulse is rapid and deficient with accompanying pain, it belongs to deficient fire, requiring yin-nourishing treatment. (Use Tuoli San [Supporting Interior Decoction], adding Sheng Di Huang [Rehmanniae Radix Recens].) If the pulse is rapid and excess with accompanying pain, it indicates pathogenic excess, requiring purgation or draining. If the pulse is excess accompanied by constipation and pain, the pathogen is internal, requiring downward purgation. (Use Qingliang Yin [Cooling Drink].) If the pulse is choppy with pain, it indicates qi and blood deficiency with cold, requiring warming and tonification. (Use Ding Tong Tuoli San [Pain-Stabilizing Supporting Interior Decoction].) There are also cases caused by contact with foul pathogens, requiring harmonization. (Use Dongyuan's Huang Lian Ren Shen Tang [Coptis and Ginseng Decoction]. Zhu Danxi noted that herbs such as Bai Shao [White Peony Root] and Ru Xiang [Olibanum] may be used.) There are also cases forced by wind-cold, requiring warming and dispersal. (Use Baidu San [Resolving Toxicity Decoction]; Zhu noted that Fang Feng [Saposhnikoviae Radix] and Gui Zhi [Cinnamomi Ramulus] may be used.) If pus is trapped behind fatty membranes and cannot drain out, or if distending pain occurs, needle drainage should be employed. Alternatively, sharp knives or scissors may be used to incise. If putrid flesh blocks the wound, it must be removed.
[Danzi] Xiao Niang Quan, after suffering from malaria, developed a boil on her right thigh. After rupture, tendon-like pulling pain occurred, with a deficient and choppy pulse. Upon inquiry, pain in the affected area corresponded with urination. Treatment should focus on generating blood and conducting heat outward.

Decoct these ingredients and drink hot before meals.
Renshen Neituo San [Ginseng Internal-Supporting Decoction]: Treats sores and ulcers where pain occurs after ulceration and pus discharge.
Ren Shen [Ginseng Radix et Rhizoma], Huang Qi [Astragali Radix], Dang Gui [Angelicae Sinensis Radix], Chuan Xiong [Ligustici Chuanxiong Rhizoma], Hou Po [Magnoliae Officinalis Cortex], Fang Feng [Saposhnikoviae Radix], Jie Geng [Platycodonis Radix], Bai Zhi [Angelicae Dahuricae Radix], Guan Gui [Cinnamomi Cortex], Zi Cao [Arnebiae Radix seu Lithospermi Radix], Mu Xiang [Aucklandiae Radix], Gan Cao [Licorice Root].
Add a pinch of glutinous rice, decoct in water, and take orally.
For other details, refer to the section on concurrent symptoms and pain later; please consult there.
Dai Yuan Shi stated: Before ulceration, if there is aversion to cold with high fever, delirious speech, and hallucinations of seeing ghosts or deities; or if much pus has been discharged but high fever persists, the condition seems difficult to treat. The emergence of pus from toxins is akin to sweating resolving exterior syndromes in Shanghan [Cold Damage]; if excessive heat remains after sweating, it becomes a complicated Shanghan disease. He further stated: In patients with carbuncles and toxins, after extensive discharge of pus and blood, body fluids become depleted and thirst ensues. Most patients experience thirst. Even if symptoms such as fever and restlessness exist, standard clearing methods should not be used; instead, formulas that nourish Ying [Nutritive Qi] and generate fluids should be employed. If high fever persists, it is difficult to cure. If the pulse is floating or weak with fever, or aversion to cold, it indicates Yang Qi deficiency, requiring Qi tonification. (Use Buzhong Yiqi Tang [Tonify the Middle and Augment the Qi Decoction].) If the pulse is choppy with fever, it indicates Blood deficiency, requiring Blood tonification. (Use Siwu Tang [Four Substances Decoction], Renshen Yangrong Tang [Ginseng Nourishing the Nutritive Decoction], or Shengyu Tang [Generating Life Restoring Decoction].) Fever in the morning is primarily treated by tonifying Qi. (Use Sijunzi Tang [Four Gentlemen Decoction] or Huangqi Liuyi Tang [Astragalus Six-to-One Decoction].) Fever in the afternoon is primarily treated by tonifying Blood. (Use Siwu Tang or Shengyu Tang.) If the pulse is floating and rapid with fever and pain, the pathogen is at the Exterior, requiring dispersal. If the pulse is deep and rapid with fever and pain, the pathogen is internal, requiring purgation.
[Xue] In sores and ulcers, fever and irritability may result from excessive bleeding, massive pus discharge, excessive sweating leading to loss of Yang, or excessive purging leading to loss of Yin. This causes consumption of Yin Blood, leaving Yang without attachment, causing it to float and scatter on the muscle surface; this is not Fire. If there is fever with insomnia, it is Blood deficiency; use Shengyu Tang. Accompanied by incessant sweating indicating Qi deficiency, urgently use Dushen Tang [Single Ginseng Decoction]. Fever and irritability with muscle twitching and tremors indicate Qi and Blood deficiency; use Bazhen Tang [Eight Treasures Decoction]. Extreme thirst, red face, and a large, empty pulse upon pressure indicate Yin deficiency with fever; use Danggui Buxue Tang [Angelica Tonifying Blood Decoction]. Mild limb fever, irritability, red face, and a deep, faint pulse indicate Yin excess causing false agitation; use Sijunzi Tang plus Gan Jiang [Zingiberis Rhizoma] and Fu Zi [Aconiti Lateralis Radix Praeparata]. Dongyuan stated: Fever during the day and quietness at night indicates Yang Qi flourishing in the Yang divisions. Quietness during the day and fever at night indicates Yang Qi sinking into the Yin. Fever both day and night indicates extreme Yang and lack of Yin. One must vigorously tonify Yin; practitioners should examine this carefully.
Tuoli Xiaodu San Modification Rules: Headache and fever indicate pathogen at the Exterior; add Chuan Xiong and Qiang Huo [Notopterygii Rhizoma et Radix] to the base formula. If external pathogens are at the Exterior but Yuan Qi [Primal Qi] is solid, temporarily use Renshen Baidu San [Ginseng Resolving Toxicity Decoction]. Headache and aversion to cold indicate Exterior deficiency; remove Jin Yin Hua [Lonicerae Japonicae Flos] and Lian Qiao [Forsythiae Fructus], and double the dosage of Ren Shen. Fever with desire for cold drinks and constipation indicates Internal Heat; remove Ren Shen, Dang Gui, and Bai Zhu [Atractylodis Macrocephalae Rhizoma], and add Da Huang [Rhei Radix et Rhizoma]. Fever with desire for hot drinks and constipation indicates Internal Deficiency; remove the aforementioned two herbs, and add Ren Shen, Dang Gui, and Bai Zhu. Red face and eyes, irritability, thirst, and a large, empty pulse indicate Blood deficiency with hair loss and agitation; remove Lian Qiao, Jin Yin Hua, and Bai Zhi, and double Huang Qi and Dang Gui. If ineffective, temporarily use Danggui Buxue Tang. Body heat, aversion to clothing, desire to immerse in water, and a deep, faint, thin pulse indicate Qi deficiency with hair loss and agitation; remove the three herbs mentioned above, and add Rou Gui [Cinnamomi Cortex] and Fu Zi. If ineffective, temporarily use Fuzi Lizhong Tang [Aconite Regulate the Middle Decoction]. In women, due to overwork or anger, or during menstruation, if fever and delirium occur, or severe fever at night, the pathology is in the Blood division; remove the three herbs, and add Sheng Di Huang, Mu Dan Pi [Moutan Cortex], and Chai Hu [Bupleuri Radix]. If ineffective, temporarily use Jiawei Siwu Tang [Modified Four Substances Decoction].
A man had ripe pus that did not ulcerate, with slight pain, poor appetite, fatigue, and fever. I punctured him with a needle, pus gushed out, and fever intensified further. This was due to deficiency. I urgently administered two doses of Renshen Huangqi Tang [Ginseng and Astragalus Decoction], yet fever worsened; this indicated the medicinal force had not yet taken effect. After another two doses, improvement was indeed seen. Subsequently, several doses of Danggui Buxue Tang were administered, leading to recovery. Dongyuan stated: Fever, aversion to heat, extreme unquenchable thirst, irritability, skin heat, aversion to clothing, large pulse that feels empty upon pressure, or eye pain and dry nose, are not indications for Baihu Tang [White Tiger Decoction]. This is agitation due to Blood deficiency; Danggui Buxue Tang should be the primary treatment.
A scholar suffered from Liu Zhu [Flowing Abscess], with fever, thirst, headache, and spontaneous sweating. The pulse was large but empty upon pressure, indicating Qi and Blood deficiency with Cold. He was treated with Shiquan Dabu Tang [Ten Complete Great Tonifying Decoction] plus Mai Men Dong [Asparagi Radix] and Wu Wei Zi [Schisandrae Chinensis Fructus], but symptoms worsened. The previous prescription was continued with one qian of Fu Zi added. After four doses, all symptoms receded. Fu Zi was then removed, and Rou Gui was added for over twenty doses, gradually restoring Qi and Blood. Later, due to mental exertion, he experienced fever and aversion to cold with reduced diet, indicating secondary damage to the Spleen and Stomach and sinking of Yuan Qi. Bu Zhong Yi Qi Tang plus one qian of Fu Zi was used; after two doses, fever ceased and appetite returned. He was then stabilized by tonifying Yuan Qi extensively. Later, due to examination failure and frustration, compounded by overwork, his diet decreased daily, and his physical energy declined. He experienced vomiting phlegm, thirst, headache, aversion to cold, intermittent fever, and irregular movements. Several doses of Bu Zhong Yi Qi Tang were used; symptoms gradually improved, and Yuan Qi recovered. Fu Zi was then removed, and five fen of Rou Gui was added. After over a hundred doses, he was cured. A man had a non-healing back sore, reddish and scanty urine, local swelling and fever, dry mouth, fatigue, and a large, rapid but powerless pulse. He was treated with Ren Shen, Dang Gui, Bai Zhu, Shu Di Huang [Prepared Rehmannia Root], Chuan Xiong, Chen Pi [Citri Reticulatae Pericarpium], Mai Men Dong, Wu Wei Zi, roasted Gan Cao, and Rou Gui to tonify Yuan Qi and guide Fire back to its source. Pulse and symptoms initially worsened, indicating the medicinal force had not yet reached efficacy. After two more doses, symptoms suddenly receded. Rou Gui was removed, and after several more doses, he healed. This case resulted from prior failure to tonify Yuan Qi. Cao Jiang Wu Du Xian, after healing a back sore, developed high fever. Mistakenly diagnosed as Excess Fire, he took a bowl of bitter-cold medicine, worsening chills and fever, desiring a cold bath. His pulse was floating and large but empty upon pressure. I said: This is deficient Yang floating on the muscle surface, a rootless Fire. Urgently use Liujunzi Tang [Six Gentlemen Decoction] plus Fu Zi; one dose led to recovery.
My father-in-law, Yu Jian, accustomed to rich and greasy foods, aged forty-three, developed a carbuncle on his back. The surgeon prescribed Wuxiang Tang [Five Fragrances Decoction], causing restlessness and heat resembling madness. I firmly opposed this, and the prescription was abandoned. After ulceration, he was calm for one day, then fever flared up again, worsening over five to six days. The pulse was extremely large and rapid. Physicians considered it deficiency and recommended tonification. I privately reasoned that changes from rich food, combined with the heat of Wuxiang, required bitter-cold treatment, especially since he had not had a bowel movement for several days. Perhaps purgation could drain the toxin? I ground approximately one liang of Shi Gao [Gypsum Fibrosum], two to three qian of Zhi Mu [Anemarrhenae Rhizoma], one qian of Gan Cao, and one whole Gua Lou [Trichosanthis Fructus] including the seed, crushed them, and prepared one dose. I ordered a servant to heat charcoal and water for self-decoction. Physician Xia Sheng strongly advised against it, arguing that in deep winter with ulceration, Baihu method should not be used. I deliberately added another liang of Shi Gao, and hid five qian of Da Huang slices in my sleeve. When the decoction boiled, I covered the pot with my sleeve, pretending to move it away from the fire, while secretly dropping the Da Huang into the pot. My wife's uncles and others sat around the stove watching intently, unaware. Xia Sheng told Sheng Fu, "Drinking this will surely kill him," and left. Sheng Fu informed me, and I smiled. After the medicine was ready, I gave it to my father-in-law. Soon, hard stool and undigested food passed in the stool, followed by clear diarrhea, fever subsided, and body cooled. Then, Sijunzi Tang was used to regulate digestion, and he recovered within a month. Previously, every morning pulse diagnosis suggested anorexia, low intake, large sore, and excessive dead tissue removal, leading him to worry about how flesh would regenerate and the wound close. I believed him. Initially, I thought urinary/fecal blockage required arbitrary purgation, unaware it was food stagnation causing fever. Xia Sheng was ashamed and left.
