《索问》云∶痛痒、疮疡、痈疽、疡疹、瘤气、结核,怫郁甚者,皆热。五脏不和,九
窍不通,六腑不和,留结为痈。近于火气,微热则痒,热甚则痛,附近则灼而为疮,皆火之用也。
人之疮肿,因内热外虚所生也。为风湿之所乘,则生疮肿。然肺主气,候于皮毛,脾
主肌肉,气虚则肤腠开,为风湿所乘,脾气温而内热,即生疮也。肿者,皆由寒热毒瓦斯客于经
络,使血涩而不通,壅结成肿。风邪内作,即无头无根。气血相搏作者,即有头有根。热壅
盛,则为脓赤。核肿,则风气流结也。疮以痛痒,痛则为实,痒则为虚,非谓虚寒也,正
谓热之微甚也。
痒者,美疾也。故火旺于夏,而万物蕃鲜荣美也,炙之以火,渍之以汤,而其痒转甚
者,微热之所使也。痒去者,谓火热令皮肤纵缓,腠理开通,阳气得泄,热散而去。或夏热
皮肤痒,而以冷水沃之,其痒不去,谓寒收敛,腠理闭密,阳气郁结,不能散越,怫热内作
故也。
疮疡皆为火热,而反腐出脓水者,犹谷肉果菜,热极则腐烂,而溃为污水也。渍而腐
烂者,水之化也。痈浅而大,
疽深而恶。热盛血,则为痈脓也。疡有头,小疮也。疹浮而小,瘾疹也。瘤气,赤瘤、丹 、
热盛气火之色也。

According to the *Suwen* (Basic Questions): Pain, itching, sores, carbuncles, ulcers, rashes, tumors with qi stagnation, and nodules, when severely stagnant, all belong to heat syndromes. Disharmony of the Five Zang organs leads to blockage of the Nine Orifices; disharmony of the Six Fu organs causes pathogenic factors to remain and knot, forming carbuncles. Proximity to fire energy results in mild heat causing itching, severe heat causing pain, and scorching nearby tissues leading to sores; these are all functions of Fire. Human sores and swellings arise from internal heat and external deficiency. When attacked by Wind-Dampness, sores and swellings are generated. The Lung governs Qi and corresponds to the skin and hair; the Spleen governs muscles. When Lung Qi is deficient, the skin pores open, making one susceptible to Wind-Dampness; although the Spleen Qi is warm, internal heat generates sores. Swelling is caused by cold-heat toxic qi lodging in the meridians and collaterals, causing blood stasis and obstruction, leading to congestion and knotting into swelling. Internal action of Wind pathogen results in lumps without heads or roots; when Qi and Blood fight each other, lumps have heads and roots. Severe heat congestion leads to pus formation and redness. Nodular swelling is due to the knotting of Wind and Qi flow. Sores manifest as pain or itching; pain indicates Excess syndrome, while itching indicates Deficiency syndrome. Here, "Deficiency" does not refer to Cold-Deficiency, but rather to the slightness or severity of Heat.
Itching is a beautiful sensation (as Yang Qi circulates freely). Thus, Fire prospers in Summer, and all things flourish and appear vibrant. If roasted by fire or soaked in hot water, and itching intensifies, it is caused by mild heat. The disappearance of itching occurs because heat relaxes the skin, opens the interstices (Cou Li), allows Yang Qi to dissipate, and heat scatters away. Alternatively, if summer skin itching is washed with cold water and persists, it is because Cold constricts, closing the interstices, causing Yang Qi to stagnate internally and unable to disperse, resulting in trapped heat arising within.
Sores and ulcers are all caused by Fire and Heat. Those that rot and discharge pus and water are like grains, meats, fruits, and vegetables: when heat reaches its extreme, they rot and溃 (break down) into foul liquid. Rotting due to soaking is the transformation of Water. Carbuncles (Yong) are superficial and large; Gangrenous sores (Ju) are deep and malignant. Heat damaging Blood forms carbuncle pus. Ulcers with heads are small sores. Rashes (Zhen) float and are small, known as Urticaria (Yin Zhen). Tumor Qi refers to red tumors or Erysipelas (Dan), which are colors of excessive Heat and Qi-Fire.
Ruyi San (As-You Powder): Treats tinea and ringworm with intermittent pain and itching, regardless of duration or novelty.
Evodia Fruit (Wuzhuyu), Arctium Seed (Niubangzi), Schizonepeta (Jingjie) (each 1 fen), Oyster Shell (Muli) (0.5 liang), Calomel (Qingfen), Realgar mixed with Arsenic Trioxide (Xinpi) (2 qian).
Grind the above into fine powder and mix evenly. Each time before sleep, take 1 qian, mix with oil, and rub over half the body. If itching persists later, apply a small amount between the thighs and hips. Healing occurs upon smelling the fragrance.
Xinxiao San (Faithful Effect Powder): Treats Wind-Heat attacking the Yangming Meridian, causing dental caries and erosion, stopping foul odor, yellowish blood color, foul breath and stuffiness, pain upon movement, intermittent attacks, and detoxifying all metallic/mineral poisons.
Realgar mixed with Arsenic Trioxide (Xinpi) (1 qian), Lead Oxide (Huandan) (2 qian), Ancient Calcined Iron Ore (Qiangu Duanshi) (4 qian, if unavailable, use aged ones, stir-fried and finely ground).
Grind the above into fine powder, add Green Salt (Qingyan) 1 fen and Musk (Shexiang) a little (if unavailable, omit). Take an amount the size of a soybean per application. First rinse mouth clean, dip fingers in medicine, press on upper and lower teeth and gums to drain saliva, do not swallow. Rinse clean after a moment. Apply a little more to eroded areas. Use 3-4 times daily. Often used with Ruyi San, frequent application is best. If illness is caused by taking metallic/mineral drugs, apply multiple times a day without damaging teeth, as if by divine power. If teeth are already damaged, applying heals immediately. Common use by healthy people can clear the head and eyes, broaden the chest, improve appetite, and delay graying of beard and hair. Long-term use also strengthens teeth and delays aging.
Qi ascends to the face, where the Hand-Yangming and Foot-Yangming meridians pour their Qi and Blood. Worry and thought cause Qi stagnation and blood stasis, dryness-heat traps and depresses, blood becomes deficient, failing to nourish the Zang-Fu organs, hence premature grayness, sallow complexion, and white spots. This medicine promotes the circulation of Yangming Qi and Blood, hence its efficacy.
Another prescription uses Dragon Bone (Gulong) instead of calcined iron ore.
