下颏部位归属于肾水。左腮部归属于肝木（原文作“肝水”，据中医五行理论及上下文语境，此处应指肝木，但依原文直译为肝水，并在翻译中保留原意或稍作修正以符合逻辑，鉴于要求保留术语，此处暂按原文“肝水”译出，但在中医语境下通常指肝）。天庭和印堂部位归属于心火。鼻准（鼻尖）归属于脾土。右腮部归属于肺金。
半周岁至两周岁称为婴儿。
三至四岁称为孩儿。五至六岁称为小儿。七至八岁称为龆龀（换牙期儿童）。九岁称为童子。十岁称为稚子。
古语说小儿如同萌芽的幼儿，就像草的嫩芽，又像水中的泡沫。这是因为小儿脏腑脆嫩，口不能言，最难投药治疗。应当首先观察面色来知晓病属何脏，其次查验虎口指纹以辨别病因。这确实是治疗方法的简要原则。
小儿有病看面部，完全根据气色判断分明。望闻问切能穷究病理，临病时才不会拘泥于手足脉诊。面部各个部位各有归属。
额头、颧骨和脸颊归属于心火。左颊原本由肝所主。右颊和唇中是肺的基础。四季中各有一种旺相之色。根据时令判断，无急逆之时则无殃祸。
要分辨旺、相、休、囚、否五种状态，全凭人心自行斟酌衡量。春天青色旺，亦为相；黑色为休，白色为囚，黄色为否家。夏天红色旺，黄色为相，吉；青色为休，黑色为囚，白色不良。假如是肝病而面色青，若在春季见到白色，则不易医治。这是肺金来克肝木；若面色黄，则是脾家欺侮。心病在夏天尚且面色赤，望色只愁形色黑。这是肾水克心火；白色又被肺家屈抑。肺病愁来面色白为宜，若行赤色则最难消除。这是因为心火克肺金；青色反令肝作威。肾病面色黑各得天时之相，黄色现时多悒怏不乐。这是脾土克肾水；色赤反致心磨障。脾居四季，面形黄。如遇青色最难抵挡。此为肝木克脾土；色黑反使肾家强。春赤夏黄秋黑色，冬青虽相亦无益。从前来者实形传，实泻其子平方吉。五脏所属各一宫，五色分来人不同。色内能分明与滞，据色方能辨吉凶。心赤顺时如鸡冠色，不宜瘀血糊涂赤。肝形翠羽顺光多，色如嫩草安为吉。脾色贵如蟹腹黄，形如枳实必灾殃。肺形独贵猪脂状，枯骨定知寿不长。肾色最尚如鸟羽，形如炭煤非吉理。色色去将两色分，吉凶灼然不虚语。更看人气清明顺，神昏气HT（此处原文可能有误，推测为“气粗”或类似描述凶象的词，按字面处理或忽略不通处，结合后文“作凶认”，意为气息浑浊或异常）作凶认。瘦而气壮色必实，肥而气怯色必嫩。气壮则实以安祥，气怯则虚寿不长。再看得病面如何，发热额上红必多。青色现时急惊作，若成昏暗定知殂（死亡）。额冷足冷夹食惊，额热足热伤风重。囟门贵合不宜陷，肿起成坑两无用。印堂青色惊之，红色心惊，白主和。或见微微青紫色，只因客忤蓦相过。山根青兮惊为疾，紫色伤于乳和食。泻脱宜黄白须死，年寿黄为吐利基。若成[空白]白是乎虚。两颐赤为啼哭热，左腮红是痰气为，右腮红是伤风热。面青唇赤伤寒至，面目皆黄湿热生。面黄弄舌五心热，两眉红主儿夜啼。眉皱头疼痢疾为，眼脬浮肿主久嗽。病之将瘥目皆黄，淡红心热无多说。目多直视乃惊风，赤脉贯睛肝病凶。鱼目定睛非吉兆，瞳人中陷死之宗。

Facial Complexion Symptom Chart \ps48a59.bmp\r
The chin belongs to Kidney Water. The left cheek belongs to Liver Wood (original text says "Liver Water", likely a typo for Wood in context of Five Elements, but translated as per source). The Tian Ting (forehead) and Yin Tang (glabella) belong to Heart Fire. The nose tip (Bi Zhun) belongs to Spleen Earth. The right cheek belongs to Lung Metal.
Half a year to two years old is called infant (Ying Er).
Three to four years old is called child (Hai Er). Five to six years old is called small child (Xiao Er). Seven to eight years old is called tiao chen (child changing teeth). Nine years old is called tong zi (boy). Ten years old is called zhi zi (young child).
Ancient texts say that children are like sprouting infants, similar to grass shoots or foam in water. This is because their Zang-Fu organs are fragile and tender, they cannot speak, and it is most difficult to administer medication. One should first observe the facial complexion to determine the affected organ, and then examine the Tiger Mouth (finger veins) to identify the cause. This is indeed a concise principle of treatment.
When a child is ill, look at the face; clarity comes entirely from observing the Qi and color. Observation, listening/smelling, inquiry, and palpation can exhaustively investigate pathology; thus, when treating illness, one is not restricted solely to pulse diagnosis of the hands and feet. Each part of the face has its specific correspondence.
The forehead, zygomatic bones, and cheeks correspond to Heart Fire. The left cheek is originally governed by the Liver. The right cheek and lips are the foundation of the Lung. In each season, there is a dominant (Wang) and secondary (Xiang) color. According to the season, without urgent reversal, there is no disaster.
One must distinguish between Wang (Prosperous), Xiang (Secondary), Xiu (Resting), Qiu (Imprisoned), and Fou (Declining) states; this relies on human judgment. In spring, Green is Wang and also Xiang; Black is Xiu, White is Qiu, Yellow is Fou. In summer, Red is Wang, Yellow is Xiang (Auspicious); Green is Xiu, Black is Qiu, White is Unfavorable. If it is a Liver disease presenting with a green face, seeing white in spring makes it hard to treat. This is Lung Metal overcoming Liver Wood; if yellow appears, it is Spleen Earth bullying. If it is a Heart disease in summer, the face is red; observing color, one worries about blackness. This is Kidney Water overcoming Heart Fire; white is suppressed by Lung Metal. For Lung disease, a white face is appropriate; if red appears, it is hardest to eliminate. This is Heart Fire overcoming Lung Metal; green allows the Liver to become aggressive. For Kidney disease, a black face corresponds to heavenly phases; if yellow appears, there is much depression. This is Spleen Earth overcoming Kidney Water; red causes heart obstruction. The Spleen resides in all seasons, with a yellow face shape. If green appears, it is hardest to withstand. This is Liver Wood overcoming Spleen Earth; black strengthens the Kidney. Spring Red, Summer Yellow, Autumn Black, Winter Green—even if Xiang, it is of no benefit. Transmission from the preceding element indicates excess; draining the son restores peace and auspiciousness. Each of the five Zang organs belongs to a palace; people differ according to the five colors. Clarity vs. stagnation within the color allows distinguishing good and bad omens based on color. A healthy Heart red resembles a rooster's comb; muddy, bloody red is unsuitable. A healthy Liver form resembles peacock feathers with luster; color like tender grass is auspicious. A favorable Spleen color is like the yellow belly of a crab; shape like Zhi Shi (immature bitter orange) portends disaster. A favorable Lung form resembles pig fat; dry bone indicates short life. The best Kidney color resembles bird feathers; charcoal-black is inauspicious. Distinguishing two colors in each hue reveals clear good and bad omens, not empty words. Further observe if the person's Qi is clear and smooth; confusion of spirit and abnormal Qi are recognized as ominous. Thin but strong Qi implies Excess; fat but weak Qi implies delicate/weak constitution. Strong Qi leads to stability and peace; weak Qi implies Deficiency and short life. Again, observe the diseased face: fever often presents with redness on the forehead. Appearance of green indicates acute convulsions; if dark and dim, death is certain. Cold forehead and cold feet indicate food-stagnation fright; hot forehead and hot feet indicate severe wind-cold. The fontanelle should be closed and not sunken; swelling or pit-like depressions are useless indicators. Blue-green at Yin Tang indicates fright; red indicates Heart fright; white indicates harmony. Slight blue-purple suggests sudden exposure to strange influences (Ke Wu). Blue at Shan Gen (root of nose) indicates fright-disease; purple indicates injury from milk or food. Diarrhea/depletion with yellow/white faces requires death prediction; yellow at Nian Shou (area below nose) is the basis for vomiting and diarrhea. [Blank] white indicates deficiency. Redness at both cheeks indicates crying-heat; redness at the left cheek indicates phlegm-Qi; redness at the right cheek indicates wind-heat. Face green with red lips indicates Shang Han (Cold Damage); yellow face and eyes indicate damp-heat. Yellow face with tongue protrusion and heat in five centers (palms, soles, chest) indicates night crying with red eyebrows. Furrowed brows indicate headache and dysentery. Swollen eye sacs indicate chronic cough. As the disease recovers, eyes may turn yellow; pale red indicates Heart heat. Frequent upward staring indicates Jing Feng (Wind Stirring); red vessels penetrating the eyeballs indicate ominous Liver disease. Fish-eye fixed gaze is not an auspicious omen; sunken pupils are the root of death.
