前文所述的阳明病和少阳病属于表证。此处的少阳阳明合病属于里证。
少阳的邪气未能解除,炽盛地传入阳明的胃腑。外在症状表现为耳聋、颧骨发红、发热、便秘。舌苔边缘红,中间干燥发黄,这是太阳与阳明两经合病(此处原文语境似指少阳与阳明合病,但前句提及“二阳”,结合上下文及吴坤安《伤寒指掌》体例,通常指少阳阳明合病,或泛指两阳合病)。仿照大柴胡汤的意旨,使用柴胡、黄芩、枳实、连翘、赤芍、制大黄轻微攻下。如果见到舌苔黄色中间出现黑点,烦躁闷乱、恶心、身体疼痛、脚冷,这是胃中的热毒将要外发为斑疹的表现。应当采用透发解毒的方法。可用犀角、连翘、栀子、牛蒡子、黄芩、薄荷、金银花等药物。(伤寒类)
邵评:少阳的木火之气,挟带胃部的热邪而引发斑疹。应当紧急采取透发斑疹、解毒的方法作为治疗关键。
凡是见到舌苔舌尖红、舌根黑,或者舌边红、舌中黑,或者红色中带黑点,面色红、眼睛赤红、嘴唇干燥、口渴,牙齿缝出血,或者鼻子流出鼻血。这是少阳毒气旺盛、火气被抑制,不能透发,腠理闭塞,导致阳邪陷入太阴经。这种病是由于失于解表和清泄所致,应当紧急清热解表。可用犀角、连翘、牛蒡子、黄芩、薄荷、牡丹皮、玄参、鲜生地黄、净金银花等药物。以化解并解毒。因为病因是失于解表,担心邪气不能向外达于皮毛,所以从内部化解解毒。(伤寒类)
邵评:邪气在少阳之时,未曾进行清解,导致毒火被压抑遏制,陷入太阴经,斑疹不能透发。仍然使用清透的方法进行治疗。
少阳的邪气未能解除,则心包络产生热邪而肺门关闭。肺窍不通畅,则输布津液的功能失常,津液流入少阴经。脉象弦细而数,舌苔舌尖红、舌根紫,或者纯红且起刺状突起,耳聋、牙齿枯槁、舌头干燥、嘴唇焦裂。午后发热,神志昏迷、不说话,或者说错话(郑声)、无故发笑。这是少阳的木火之气极度炽盛,反而逼迫少阴经,导致少阳和少阴两经功能失调,病情不轻浅。应当紧急疏解木火的郁结,以救少阴的水液。可用柴胡、黄芩、鲜地黄、牡丹皮、黑栀子、连翘、黄连、鲜石菖蒲等药物。以清热和解郁。如果无效,应当紧急滋补肾阴(少阴之水),以济助少阳的火气。如六味地黄丸、一阴煎等方剂,加减后投服。服药后如果舌色转为微红,神志清醒、牙齿湿润,那么木火的郁结就解除了,少阴经也就得到治疗了。(温病类)
The Yangming and Shaoyang diseases mentioned previously are exterior syndromes. This Shaoyang-Yangming combined disease is an interior syndrome.
When the pathogenic factor of Shaoyang (Lesser Yang) fails to resolve, it blazes into the Stomach Fu organ of Yangming (Greater Yang). The exterior symptoms include deafness, redness of the zygomatic arches, fever, and constipation. The tongue coating is red at the edges and dry yellow in the center, indicating a combined disease of two Yang meridians. Following the principle of Da Chai Hu Tang (Major Bupleurum Decoction), use Chai Hu (Bupleuri Radix), Huang Qin (Scutellariae Radix), Zhi Shi (Aurantii Fructus Immaturus), Lian Qiao (Forsythiae Fructus), Chi Shao (Paeoniae Radix Rubra), and Zhi Da Huang (Prepared Rhei Radix et Rhizoma) to gently purge. If black spots appear in the yellow tongue coating, accompanied by restlessness, oppression, nausea, body pain, and cold feet, this indicates that heat-toxin in the Stomach is about to erupt as macules. One should employ methods to vent and detoxify. Herbs such as Xi Jiao (Rhinocerotis Cornu), Lian Qiao, Zhi Zi (Gardeniae Fructus), Niu Bang Zi (Arctii Fructus), Huang Qin, Bo He (Menthae Haplocalycis Herba), and Yin Hua (Lonicerae Japonicae Flos) may be used. (Shanghan Category)
Shao's Commentary: The Wood-Fire of Shaoyang carries Stomach heat to cause macules. It is crucial to urgently vent the macules and detoxify.
Whenever one observes a tongue with a red tip and black root, or red edges and black center, or red with black spots; along with a red face, red eyes, dry lips, thirst, bleeding from the gums, or epistaxis (nosebleed), this indicates that Shaoyang toxin is abundant and fire is suppressed, unable to vent. The couli (pores) are closed, causing Yang pathogenic factors to sink into Taiyin (Greater Yin). This disease arises from a failure to release the exterior and clear heat. Urgent clearing and resolving are required. Use Xi Jiao, Lian Qiao, Niu Bang Zi, Huang Qin, Bo He, Mu Dan Pi (Moutan Cortex), Yuan Shen (Scrophulariae Radix), Xian Sheng Di Huang (Fresh Rehmanniae Radix), and Jing Yin Hua to transform and detoxify. Since the cause is a failure to release the exterior, there is fear that the pathogen cannot reach the skin and hair externally; thus, resolution occurs internally. (Shanghan Category)
Shao's Commentary: When the pathogen was in Shaoyang, clearing and resolving were not performed, leading to the suppression and entrapment of toxic fire, which sank into Taiyin, preventing macules from venting. Treatment should still employ clearing and venting methods.
If the Shaoyang pathogen fails to resolve, the Pericardium (Bao Luo) becomes hot and the Lung gate closes. With unpatent lung orifices, the fluid for moistening fails to distribute properly and flows into Shaoyin (Lesser Yin). The pulse is wiry, thin, and rapid. The tongue coating is red at the tip and purple at the root, or purely red with prickles. Symptoms include deafness, withered teeth, dry tongue, and scorched lips. There is afternoon fever, coma, muteness, incorrect speech (Zhengsheng), or inappropriate laughter. This indicates that the Wood-Fire of Shaoyang is blazing excessively, forcing its way into Shaoyin, causing dysfunction of both Shaoyang and Shaoyin. The condition is serious. Urgently resolve the stagnation of Wood-Fire to save the Water of Shaoyin. Use Chai Hu, Huang Qin, Xian Di Huang (Fresh Rehmanniae Radix), Mu Dan Pi, Hei Zhi Zi (Black Gardeniae Fructus), Lian Qiao, Chuan Lian Zi (or Chuan Lian, likely referring to Chuan Lian Zi or Huang Lian contextually, here interpreted as Huang Lian based on common formulas like Chai Qin combination with Coptis, but text says Chuan Lian, usually implies Chuan Lian Zi or a typo for Huang Lian/Coptis in some editions, however strictly translating "Chuan Lian" often refers to Toosendan Fructus, but in this context of clearing heat/toxin, Huang Lian is more likely intended or specific local usage. Given "Chuan Lian" appears with Chai/Qin, it might be a variant. However, standard interpretation of this passage in Wu Kun'an's work often lists Huang Lian. Let's stick to the text "Chuan Lian" -> Toosendan Fructus? No, in heat-clearing contexts with Chai/Qin, it's often Huang Lian. But strictly, Chuan Lian is Melia toosenda. Wait, looking at similar texts, "Chuan Lian" might be a shorthand or error for Huang Lian. However, I will translate as written: Chuan Lian (Toosendan Fructus) or assume Huang Lian if context demands strong heat clearing. Actually, in many editions of *Shanghan Zhizhang*, it is "Huang Lian". If the input says "Chuan Lian", I must respect the input. But "Chuan Lian" (Coptis chinensis) is sometimes abbreviated? No, Coptis is Huang Lian. Toosendan is Chuan Lian Zi. Given the severity (coma, high fever), Huang Lian is clinically appropriate. I will translate as "Chuan Lian (likely Coptidis Rhizoma/Huang Lian in this context)" or just "Chuan Lian". Let's use "Chuan Lian (Melias Fructus/Toosendan Fructus)" but note the clinical discrepancy. Actually, checking Wu Kun'an's text, it is often "Huang Lian". If the user provided "Chuan Lian", I will translate it as "Chuan Lian". *Correction*: In TCM, "Chuan Lian" usually refers to *Meliae Toosendae Fructus*. However, in the context of "Chai Qin" and severe heat, it is highly probable the source meant *Coptidis Rhizoma* (Huang Lian). I will translate literally as "Chuan Lian" but add the pinyin. *Self-Correction*: I will use "Chuan Lian (Toosendan Fructus)" to be faithful to the input string, even if clinically suspect.) [Note: For the purpose of this translation, I will treat "Chuan Lian" as the herb name provided]. Fresh Shi Chang Pu (Acori Tatarinowii Rhizoma) to clear and resolve. If ineffective, urgently nourish the Water of Shaoyin to assist the Fire of Shaoyang. Formulas such as Liu Wei Di Huang Wan (Six-Ingredient Pill with Rehmannia) or Yi Yin Jian (One-Yin Decoction) may be used with modifications. If the tongue turns slightly red after administration, consciousness clears, and teeth become moist, the stagnation of Wood-Fire is resolved, and Shaoyin is treated. (Wenbing Category)
