Do not treat as wind syndrome. Do not administer Xiaoxuming Tang (Minor Xu Ming Decoction). Must greatly tonify Qi and Blood, then treat phlegm. Treatment should be based on distinguishing the abundance or deficiency of Qi and Blood via radial pulse diagnosis at left and right positions.
Facial paralysis with deviation of mouth and eyes, do not administer Xiaoxuming Tang (Minor Xu Ming Decoction).

For severe fever, Ganjiang (Zingiberis Rhizoma) must be used; for mild cases, use Fuling (Poria) to clear heat through diuresis. All bitter-cold heat-clearing and exterior-releasing drugs must not be used.
As soon as body heat appears, exterior-releasing methods are contraindicated. Fever and aversion to cold are both related to Qi and Blood. If the left radial pulse is deficient, blood-tonifying herbs should exceed Qi-tonifying herbs. If the right radial pulse is deficient, Qi-tonifying herbs should exceed blood-tonifying herbs.
When aversion to cold, fever, and abdominal fullness occur, disordered blood should be expelled. A "full" pulse here does not refer to this condition; abdominal pain is the indicator.
Postpartum, Baishao (Paeoniae Radix Alba) should not be used because its sour and cold nature damages the vitalizing energy.
All diseases postpartum should not be treated with dispersing methods.
