凡血得热则淖溢，故鲜；得寒则凝泣，故瘀。当审其风热风冷二证，与蛊利大别，外有
血痔、血枯、内衄、酒利、肺疽、肠胃蓄瘀、远近血等，各有门类，不可混杂。古方云∶积

大凡血液受热则流动滑利溢出，所以颜色鲜红；受寒则凝结涩滞，所以颜色瘀暗。应当仔细辨别风热与风冷两种证候，这与蛊毒痢疾有显著区别。此外还有外部的血痔、血枯、内鼻衄、酒痢、肺痈、肠胃蓄积瘀血、远血近血等，各有专门门类，不可混杂混淆。古方说：因积冷、积热以及水谷实邪导致的下利，都用大黄汤攻下。《养生方》也说：病势盛大则用疏涤法。更不知道有寒热、风湿、虚实的不同，后人随即妄加使用，受害的人很多了。唉，真是令人伤感啊。

Generally, when blood is heated, it becomes fluid and overflows, thus appearing fresh red; when cooled, it coagulates and stagnates, thus appearing dark purple. One must carefully distinguish between wind-heat and wind-cold syndromes, which are significantly different from gu-dysentery (parasitic dysentery). Additionally, there are external hemorrhoids, blood exhaustion, internal epistaxis, wine-induced dysentery, lung abscess, accumulation of stasis in the intestines and stomach, and distant/near bloody stools, each having its own category and should not be mixed up. Ancient formulas state: for dysentery caused by accumulated cold, accumulated heat, or solid food retention, use *Dahuang Tang* (Rhubarb Decoction) to purge. The *Yangsheng Fang* also states: for severe conditions, use purgative methods. However, they fail to recognize the differences among cold, heat, wind-damp, deficiency, and excess. Later generations blindly applied these methods, causing much harm. Alas, this is truly lamentable.
