伤寒病出现发黄症状,仅见于阳明经和太阴经。阳明病应当全身出汗,现在只有头部出汗,小便不通畅。心中烦闷不安,身体必然发黄,这是因为瘀热郁结在体内,内外都无法发泄所致。发汗治疗后,身体和眼睛都变黄的,是因为过度发汗导致湿邪滞留,风邪虽去但湿邪未除。发汗治疗后,若转为太阴病,身体应当发黄,这是因为小便不通畅,湿气与土气被热邪蒸腾,黄色外现于体表。如果小便自然通畅,小腹硬满的,这是瘀血导致的发黄。
邵评:根据小便通利与否来区分发黄是蓄血还是湿热,是正确的。只是胆汁入血形成的胆黄,其症状和治疗还需要补充说明。治疗方法方面,阳明发黄,是胃中的热邪转移至脾脏,必定大小便都闭塞,应用茵陈蒿汤。太阴发黄,是脾脏的湿热,必定小便不通畅,大便反而稀溏,应用茵陈五苓散。
邵评:发黄有太阴、阳明湿热虚实等不同情况。如果发黄且大小便都闭塞,这是阳明胃实,热邪移于脾脏,所以适宜用攻下法。如果发黄且小便不通畅,大便反而稀溏,这是太阴脾湿蒸腾热邪,所以适宜用清利法。
如果发黄,出汗后身体寒冷,脉象沉迟的,属于阴黄,应用茵陈五苓散加干姜(参考《准绳》)。
邵评:寒湿停滞而成阴黄,所以适宜用温通法。如果更兼阳虚,可用茵陈四逆汤。
《医宗金鉴》说:表实无汗而发黄的,适宜用麻黄连翘赤小豆汤发汗;里实不便的,适宜用茵陈蒿汤攻下;没有表里证而热势严重的,适宜用栀子柏皮汤清热;大便溏薄,小便不通畅而发黄的,适宜用茵陈五苓散利湿;阴证发黄的,适宜用茵陈四逆汤温阳。口唇周围发黑,出冷汗的,是阴黄的死症。身体干枯粗糙像烟煤一样的,是阳黄的死症。
Jaundice in Shanghan (Cold Damage) occurs only in the Yangming and Taiyin meridians. In Yangming disease, sweating should be generalized over the whole body; however, now there is only sweating on the head, and urination is difficult. With vexation and irritability in the chest and epigastrium (Xin Zhong Ao Nao), jaundice will inevitably develop because heat and blood stasis are trapped inside, with no outlet for release from within or without. After inducing sweating, if the body and eyes become yellow, it is due to excessive sweating of a dampness-pattern patient; the wind pathogen has left, but the dampness remains. After inducing sweating, if the condition shifts to Taiyin disease, jaundice should appear because of difficulty in urination; dampness and earth qi are steamed by heat, causing the yellow color to manifest externally. If urination is spontaneous and normal, but the lower abdomen is hard and full, this is jaundice caused by blood stasis.
Shao's Commentary: Distinguishing between jaundice caused by blood stasis and that caused by damp-heat based on whether urination is free or obstructed is correct. However, jaundice caused by bile entering the blood (Dan Huang) requires additional discussion regarding its symptoms and treatment. Regarding treatment methods: Yangming jaundice results from heat transferring from the Stomach to the Spleen; both stool and urine must be constipated/obstructed, so Yinchen Hao Tang (Artemisiae Scopariae Decoction) is indicated. Taiyin jaundice results from damp-heat in the Spleen; urination must be difficult, while stool tends to be loose, so Yinchen Wuling San (Artemisiae Scopariae and Five-Ingredient Poria Powder) is indicated.
Shao's Commentary: Jaundice varies in terms of damp-heat affecting the Taiyin and Yangming meridians, presenting as excess or deficiency patterns. If jaundice presents with obstruction of both stool and urine, it indicates Yangming Stomach excess, where heat transfers to the Spleen; thus, purgative therapy is appropriate. If jaundice presents with difficult urination and loose stool, it indicates Taiyin Spleen dampness steaming into heat; thus, clearing and draining therapy is appropriate.
If jaundice presents with sweating followed by cold limbs and a deep, slow pulse, it is Yin Jaundice (Yin Huang); Yinchen Wuling San plus Ganjiang (Dried Ginger) is indicated (referencing *Zhun Sheng*).
Shao's Commentary: Cold-damp stagnation leads to Yin Jaundice, so warming and unblocking therapy is appropriate. If accompanied by Yang deficiency, Yinchen Sini Tang (Artemisiae Scopariae and Four-Ingredient Reversal Decoction) can be used.
*Yizong Jinjian* states: For exterior excess with no sweating and jaundice, Mahuang Lianqiao Chixiaodou Tang (Ephedra, Forsythia, and Red Bean Decoction) should be used to induce sweating. For interior excess with constipation, Yinchen Hao Tang should be used to purge. For severe heat without exterior or interior signs, Zhizi Bopi Tang (Gardeniae and Phellodendri Bark Decoction) should be used to clear heat. For loose stool, difficult urination, and jaundice, Yinchen Wuling San should be used to promote diuresis. For Yin syndrome jaundice, Yinchen Sini Tang should be used to warm. Blackening around the mouth with cold sweat indicates a fatal case of Yin Jaundice. A dry, rough body resembling soot indicates a fatal case of Yang Jaundice.
Shao's Commentary: There are five treatment methods for jaundice: sweating, purging, clearing, draining, and warming. The methods for treating jaundice do not exceed these principles. Yin Jaundice leading to the exhaustion of Yang, and Yang Jaundice leading to the depletion of Yin, are both fatal conditions.
