（颔项痛附）
黄帝问曰∶病头痛，数岁不已，此何病也？岐伯对曰∶当有所犯大寒，内至骨髓。骨髓
者，以脑为主，脑逆，故令头痛齿亦痛。
阳逆头痛，胸满不得息，取人迎。厥头痛，面若肿起而烦心，取足阳明、太阳（一作阴）
。厥头痛，脉痛，心悲喜泣，视头动脉反盛者，乃刺之，尽去血，后调足厥阴。厥头痛，噫
（《九墟》作意）善忘，按之不得，取头面左右动脉，后取足太阳（一作阴）。厥头痛，员员
而
腰脊为应，先取天柱，后取足太阳。厥头痛，痛甚耳前后脉骨（一本作涌）热，先泻其血，
后取足太阳少阴，（一本亦作阳）。厥头痛，痛甚，耳前后脉涌有血，泻其血，后取足少阳
。真头痛，痛甚，脑尽痛，手足寒至节，死不治。头痛不可取于俞，有所击坠，恶血在内，
若内伤痛，痛未已，可即刺之，不可远取。头痛不可刺者，大痹为恶，风日作者，可令少愈
，不可已。头寒痛，先取手少阳、阳明，后取足少阳、阳明。颔痛，刺手阳明与颔之盛脉
出血。头项不可俯仰，刺足太阳；不可顾，刺手太阳（一云手阳明）。颔痛刺足阳明曲周动脉见
血，立已；不已，按经刺人迎立已。
头痛，目窗及天冲、风池主之。厥头痛，孔最主之。厥头痛，面肿起，商丘主之。
(Attached: Pain in the Mandible and Neck)
The Yellow Emperor asked, saying: "One suffers from headache that persists for many years without resolution. What disease is this?"
Qibo replied, saying: "This should be due to exposure to severe cold, which penetrates inward to the bone marrow. The bone marrow is governed by the brain. When Yang Qi rebels upward [to the brain], it causes headache, and the teeth also hurt."
For headache caused by rebellion of Yang Qi, accompanied by chest fullness and inability to breathe freely, Renying (ST 9) should be selected.
For headache caused by Jue Qi rebellion, with the face appearing swollen and mental restlessness, the Foot-Yangming and Foot-Taiyang meridians should be selected (one version says Foot-Shaoyin).
For headache caused by Jue Qi rebellion, with pain in the vessels, sadness, or spontaneous weeping, observe the arteries on the head where there is abnormal fullness; puncture them, drain all the blood, and subsequently regulate the Foot-Jueyin meridian.
For headache caused by Jue Qi rebellion, with belching (Jiuxu reads as 'yi') and forgetfulness, where palpation cannot locate a specific tender point, select the arteries on the left and right sides of the head and face, and subsequently select the Foot-Taiyang meridian (one version says Foot-Shaoyin).
For headache caused by Jue Qi rebellion, with dizziness and corresponding sensation in the waist and spine, first select Tianzhu (BL 10), and subsequently select the Foot-Taiyang meridian.
For headache caused by Jue Qi rebellion, with severe pain and heat in the bones anterior and posterior to the ears, first bleed the vessels, and subsequently select the Foot-Taiyang and Foot-Shaoyin meridians (another version also reads Foot-Taiyang).
For headache caused by Jue Qi rebellion, with severe pain and pulsating blood in the vessels anterior and posterior to the ears, bleed the vessels, and subsequently select the Foot-Shaoyang meridian.
In True Headache, with severe pain throughout the brain and cold hands and feet extending to the joints, it is a death case and untreatable.
Headache should not be treated at the Back-Shu points. If there is internal evil blood due to being struck or fallen, or if internal injury pain has not yet ceased, one may puncture immediately at the site; do not select distant points.
Headache that cannot be needled refers to cases where severe Bi syndrome worsens, or where wind pathogens cause daily recurrence; symptoms may slightly improve but cannot be cured.
For headache caused by cold in the head, first select the Hand-Shaoyang and Hand-Yangming meridians, and subsequently select the Foot-Shaoyang and Foot-Yangming meridians.
For mandibular pain, puncture the Hand-Yangming meridian and the full vessels in the mandible to bleed.
For inability to flex or extend the head and neck, puncture the Foot-Taiyang meridian; for inability to look back, puncture the Hand-Taiyang meridian (one theory says Hand-Yangming).
For mandibular pain, puncture the arterial pulse at Quzhou of the Foot-Yangming meridian until blood appears; pain stops immediately. If it does not stop, puncture Renying along the meridian; pain stops immediately.
Headache is primarily treated by Mucuang (GB 15), Tianchong (GB 16), and Fengchi (GB 20).
Headache caused by Jue Qi rebellion is primarily treated by Kongzui (LU 6).
Facial swelling associated with Jue Qi rebellion is primarily treated by Shangqiu (SP 5).
