小儿咽喉部位，一身躯命所关，蕴积热毒膈胸间，致生风痰
不散。病虽数种各别，治宜去痰为先，后解风热病斯痊，还有难
救之患。
咽喉若然有疾，治宜认其重轻，轻者甘桔散先行，重则化毒
当进。如或喉肿口噤，开关散子宜薰，喉风急教散通神，吐痰消
肿退病。
如患单双鹅症，治者不可胡行，可针之症要用针，不当针时
要禁。只用薰渗等药，退后根据次施行，蟾酥锭子点疮疗，疮毒自
消可幸。
发乃血之余，肾之苗也。小儿发久不生，虽生不黑而稀，此
由肾气衰，则血气不足之故也，地黄丸主之。
齿乃骨之余，骨者肾所主也。齿久不生，虽生而不齐者，此肾
虚故也， 地黄丸主之。
行迟者， 何也？盖骨乃髓之所养，血气不充，则髓不满骨，
故软弱不能行。此由肾与肝俱虚得之。盖肝主筋，筋弱而不能早
行；肾主骨，骨弱而不坚。加昧地黄丸主之。
脚细者，禀受不足，气血不充，故肌肉瘦薄，骨节俱露，如
鹤之膝，此亦由肾虚，名鹤膝节。加味地黄丸主之。
小儿大病后，手足痿弱，及惊风后手足痿缓，并宜加减地黄
丸主之。
语迟者，由儿在胎之时，母受惊邪之气乘心，儿感母气，心
神不定，不能荣舌，故而语迟。菖蒲丸主之。
凡吐泄及大病之后，虽有声而不能言，又能进药，此外，失
音乃肾怯不能上接于阳也。地黄丸主之。
有卒暴寒冷而声不出者，此肺风邪也。加味泻白散主之。
龟胸者，其胸高肿，状如龟样，此肺热也。加减葶苈丸主之。
龟背者，坐卧伛偻，状如龟背，由客风吹脊入于骨髓， 此症
多成痼疾。间有灸肺俞二穴(第三椎骨节下两旁各寸半)、膈俞穴
(第七骨椎下两旁各寸半)，如此而收功者，然未尽见效也。以积
壳丸主之。
化毒汤
桔梗五钱，薄荷叶、荆芥穗各二钱，甘草二钱半，
朴硝一钱，山豆根一钱半，牙硝、硼砂各二钱半，雄黄、
辰砂各二钱。研成细末，吹入患处，或者用水调匀后服用。
用金风花根捣碎，加米醋煎煮，用带嘴的瓶子盛装。将瓶嘴含在口中，仰面吞咽，鱼刺即可排出，吞咽时不要让药液沾到牙齿[41]。
也可以用玉簪花根，或者威灵仙根，都按照前面的方法使用。
用净水半碗，一口气书写“龙师火帝”七遍，吞下此水即见效。

小儿咽喉部位，关乎全身性命，热毒蕴积于膈胸之间，导致风痰不散。病症虽然多种各异，治疗应以祛痰为先，随后解除风热病才能痊愈，还有难以救治的祸患。
咽喉如果有疾病，治疗应辨别轻重，轻症先用甘桔散，重症则进服化毒汤。如果喉部肿胀且口噤不开，宜用开关散熏蒸，急性的喉风用通神散，吐痰消肿退病。
如果患单侧或双侧鹅喉症（扁桃体肿大），医者不可胡乱行事，可针刺的病症要用针，不可针刺时要禁止。只用熏、渗等药物，退肿后再依次施行，用蟾酥锭点涂疮疗，疮毒自然消除，这是值得庆幸的。
头发是血液的余气，是肾脏的外候。小儿头发长久不生，即使生了也不黑且稀疏，这是由于肾气衰弱，气血不足的缘故，用地黄丸主治。
牙齿是骨骼的余气，骨骼由肾脏所主。牙齿长久不生，即使生了也不整齐，这是肾虚的缘故，用地黄丸主治。
走路晚，为什么呢？因为骨骼由骨髓滋养，气血不充盈，则骨髓不能充满骨骼，所以软弱不能行走。这是由肾与肝俱虚导致的。肝主筋，筋弱就不能早行；肾主骨，骨弱就不坚固。用加味地黄丸主治。
小腿细，是先天禀赋不足，气血不充盈，所以肌肉瘦薄，骨节全部露出，像鹤的膝盖一样，这也是由于肾虚，名叫鹤膝节。用加味地黄丸主治。
小儿大病之后，手足痿弱，以及惊风之后手足痿软迟缓，都适宜用加减地黄丸主治。
说话晚，是因为孩子在胎中时，母亲受到惊邪之气侵袭心脏，孩子感应母气，心神不定，不能荣养舌体，所以说话晚。用菖蒲丸主治。
凡是呕吐腹泻及大病之后，虽然有声音但不能言语，又能服药，除此之外，失音是由于肾气怯弱不能上接于阳气所致。用地黄丸主治。
有突然受寒冷而发不出声音的，这是肺受风邪所致。用加味泻白散主治。
龟胸，胸部高肿，形状像乌龟，这是肺热所致。用加减葶苈丸主治。
龟背，坐卧时弯腰驼背，形状像龟背，由外来的风邪吹入脊柱进入骨髓，此症多成为顽固性疾病。间或有灸肺俞穴（第三椎骨节下两旁各一寸半）、膈俞穴（第七椎骨下两旁各一寸半），这样收效的，然而并不完全见效。用枳壳丸主治。
Jiegeng (Platycodonis Radix), Gancao (Glycyrrhizae Radix et Rhizoma), and Renshen (Ginseng Radix) are decocted in water and swallowed slowly.
Huadu Tang (Detoxification Decoction)
Jiegeng (Platycodonis Radix) 5 qian, Bohe Ye (Menthae Haplocalycis Folium) and Jingjie Sui (Schizonepetae Spica) each 2 qian, Gancao (Glycyrrhizae Radix et Rhizoma) 2.5 qian,
Puxiao (Natrii Sulfas Crystallizatus) 1 qian, Shandougen (Sophorae Tonkinensis Radix) 1.5 qian, Yaxiao (Natrii Sulfas Exsiccatus) and Pengsha (Borisovi Borax) each 2.5 qian, Xionghuang (Realgar) and Chensha (Cinnabaris) each 2 qian. Grind into a fine powder, insufflate into the affected area, or mix with water for oral administration.
Crush the root of Jinfenghua (likely *Aristolochia* species or similar local herb) and decoct it with rice vinegar. Store in a bottle with a spout. Hold the spout in the mouth, tilt the head back, and swallow; the bone will be expelled. Ensure the liquid does not touch the teeth while swallowing [41].
The root of Yuzanhua (Hemerocallis minor) or Weilingxian (Sinomenii Caulis) can also be used, following the same method as above.
Use half a bowl of clean water. Write "Longshi Huodi" (Dragon Master Fire Emperor) seven times in one breath, then drink the water for immediate effect.

The throat of infants is critical to life. Heat toxins accumulate between the diaphragm and chest, causing wind-phlegm to stagnate. Although there are various types of diseases, treatment should prioritize resolving phlegm, followed by dispelling wind-heat for recovery. There are also incurable complications.
If there is a disease in the throat, treatment must distinguish severity. For mild cases, start with Ganjie San (Licorice and Platycodon Powder); for severe cases, administer Huadu Tang (Detoxification Decoction). If the throat is swollen and the jaw is locked, use Kaiguan San (Opening Gate Powder) for fumigation. For acute Houfeng (Throat Wind), use Tongshen San (Spirit-Unblocking Powder) to induce vomiting of phlegm, reduce swelling, and alleviate the disease.
For unilateral or bilateral Ezheng (Goose Throat/Tonsillar hypertrophy), physicians must not act recklessly. Use acupuncture for conditions suitable for needling, and avoid it when contraindicated. Initially use only fumigation and渗 (percolation/dripping) medications; after swelling subsides, proceed with subsequent treatments. Apply Chansu Ding (Toad Venom Tablet) to sores/ulcers, and the toxin will naturally dissipate, which is fortunate.
Hair is the surplus of blood and the external manifestation of the Kidney. If an infant's hair fails to grow for a long time, or grows but is thin and blackless, this is due to Kidney Qi deficiency leading to insufficient Qi and Blood. Treat with Dihuang Wan (Rehmannia Pill).
Teeth are the surplus of bones, and bones are governed by the Kidney. If teeth fail to erupt for a long time, or erupt unevenly, this is due to Kidney deficiency. Treat with Dihuang Wan (Rehmannia Pill).
Why do some children walk late? Bones are nourished by Marrow. If Qi and Blood are not abundant, Marrow cannot fill the bones, resulting in weakness and inability to walk. This results from simultaneous deficiency of the Kidney and Liver. The Liver governs Sinews; weak sinews prevent early walking. The Kidney governs Bones; weak bones lack firmness. Treat with Jiawei Dihuang Wan (Modified Rehmannia Pill).
Thin calves result from insufficient congenital endowment and inadequate Qi and Blood, leading to emaciated muscles and exposed joints, resembling the knees of a crane. This is also due to Kidney deficiency, named He Xi Jie (Crane Knee Joint). Treat with Jiawei Dihuang Wan (Modified Rehmannia Pill).
After severe illness in infants, if hands and feet are flaccid, or after convulsions if hands and feet are weak and slow, treat with Ji Jian Dihuang Wan (Reduced and Added Rehmannia Pill).
Delayed speech occurs because during gestation, the mother was affected by shock and pathogenic qi invading the Heart. The fetus senses the mother's Qi, leading to unsettled Heart Spirit, which fails to nourish the tongue, causing delayed speech. Treat with Changpu Wan (Acorus Pill).
Following vomiting, diarrhea, or severe illness, if the child has voice but cannot speak yet can take medicine, aside from these, aphonia is due to Kidney Weakness failing to connect upward with Yang. Treat with Dihuang Wan (Rehmannia Pill).
Sudden loss of voice due to extreme cold is caused by Lung Wind Pathogen. Treat with Jiawei Xiebai San (Modified White Powder for Draining).
Gui Xiong (Turtle Chest) features a high, swollen chest resembling a turtle shell, caused by Lung Heat. Treat with Ji Tingli Wan (Modified Descurainia Pill).
Gui Bei (Turtle Back) involves stooping while sitting or lying, resembling a turtle's back. It is caused by exogenous Wind invading the spine and entering the bone marrow. This condition often becomes chronic. Occasionally, moxa is applied to Feishu (BL13, 1.5 cun lateral to the lower border of the spinous process of the 3rd thoracic vertebra) and Geshu (BL17, 1.5 cun lateral to the lower border of the spinous process of the 7th thoracic vertebra). While this may yield results, it is not always fully effective. Treat with Zhike Wan (Citrus Aurantium Pill).
