【纲】张仲景说:中风病出现发热症状,经过六七天病情未缓解且伴有烦躁,同时存在表证和里证。如果患者口渴想喝水,但水喝进去就吐出来,这种病症称为“水逆”。
【目】朱肱说:伤寒病的表证应当用发汗法治疗,里证应当用攻下法治疗,这是不可改变的原则。发表(发散表邪)和攻里(通泄里实),原本就是不同的治法。桂枝汤(解肌发表)和承气汤类(泻热通便)怎么可以同时使用呢?然而,如果病人的脉象浮而大,说明是表证,应当发汗;病人发热、烦躁、口渴,小便颜色深红,这就应当攻下。这是表证和里证同时出现的表现,主治方剂为五苓散。如果六七天不大便,头痛且伴有发热,这属于里证,应当攻下;但如果病人小便清长,就知道病邪不在里,仍在表,此时应当发汗。这是两种症状同时出现,暂时不可以攻下,适宜给予桂枝汤。如果心下部胀满,不想吃东西,大便干硬,脉象沉细,这是里证,应当攻下;但如果病人头部出汗,轻微怕冷,手脚冰凉,这就应当发汗。这也是两种症状同时出现,即张仲景所说的“半在表半在里”,主治方剂为小柴胡汤。如果是太阳病,表证尚未解除,医生多次误用攻下法,导致挟带热邪的腹泻不止,心下部痞塞坚硬,张仲景称之为表里同病不解,宜用桂枝人参汤。原本是太阳病,医生反而误用攻下法,因而引起腹痛,这是既有表证又有里证,张仲景使用桂枝加芍药汤;疼痛剧烈的,用桂枝加大黄汤。太阳病表现为桂枝汤证,医生反而误用攻下法,导致腹泻不止,脉象急促的,说明表证未解;气喘且出汗的,用葛根黄芩黄连汤。如果烦躁、口苦,腹部胀满且气喘,发热出汗,不怕冷反而怕热,这是阳明病证;但脉象反而浮紧,说明表里证俱见,既不可发汗也不可攻下,适宜用栀子豉汤催吐。这就是张仲景治疗伤寒病中既有表证又有里证的方法。
王好古说:大柴胡汤,用于治疗表里内外都发热的病症。治疗有表证的情况,或者脉浮,或者头痛,或者怕风,或者怕寒,这四种症状中有一两个仍然存在的,就是过了十三天经气传变仍未解除的情况。治疗有里证的情况,或者谵语(胡言乱语),或者妄见(幻觉),或者扔东西举目视物,这些都属于里证的急症。如果想发汗,则里证已经危急;如果想攻下,则表证仍然存在。通用大柴胡汤治疗。
[General Principle] Zhang Zhongjing stated: In Wind-Stroke (Zhongfeng) presenting with fever, if the condition persists for six or seven days without resolution and is accompanied by vexation, there are simultaneous exterior and interior syndromes. If the patient feels thirsty and desires to drink water, but vomits immediately after swallowing, this syndrome is named "Water Reversal" (Shui Ni).
[Detailed Discussion] Zhu Gong said: For Exterior syndromes in Cold Damage (Shanghan), sweating methods should be employed; for Interior syndromes, purgative methods should be used. This is an unchangeable principle. Releasing the exterior and attacking the interior are fundamentally different treatments. How can Guizhi Tang (Cinnamon Twig Decoction) and Chengqi Tang formulas (e.g., Da Chengqi Tang) be administered simultaneously? However, if the patient's pulse is floating and large, indicating an Exterior syndrome requiring sweating, and the patient presents with fever, vexation, thirst, and dark urine, it indicates a need for purgation. This represents simultaneous presentation of Exterior and Interior syndromes, which should be treated primarily with Wuling San (Five-Ingredient Poria Pill). If there has been no bowel movement for six or seven days, accompanied by headache and fever, this is an Interior syndrome requiring purgation; however, if the urine is clear, it indicates the pathogen is not in the Interior but remains in the Exterior, and sweating should be employed. This is a case where both symptoms are present, and purgation should not yet be attempted; instead, Guizhi Tang is appropriate. If there is fullness below the heart, aversion to food, hard stools, and a deep, fine pulse, this is an Interior syndrome requiring purgation; however, if the patient sweats only on the head, has slight aversion to cold, and cold hands and feet, sweating should be employed. This is also a case of simultaneous symptoms, what Zhang Zhongjing referred to as "half in the Exterior, half in the Interior," which should be treated with Xiaochaihu Tang (Minor Bupleurum Decoction). If Taiyang disease (Taiyang Bing) exists with unresolved Exterior symptoms, and the physician repeatedly uses purgatives, leading to persistent diarrhea with heat, and epigastric stiffness and fullness, Zhang Zhongjing calls this "Exterior and Interior unresolved." Guizhi Renshen Tang (Cinnamon Twig and Ginseng Decoction) should be used. Originally a Taiyang disease, if the physician erroneously uses purgatives, resulting in abdominal pain, this indicates the presence of both Exterior and Interior conditions. Zhang Zhongjing used Guizhi Shaoyao Tang (Cinnamon Twig and Peony Decoction); for severe pain, Guizhi Dahuang Tang (Cinnamon Twig and Rhubarb Decoction) is used. In Taiyang disease presenting with Guizhi syndrome, if the physician erroneously uses purgatives, leading to persistent diarrhea, a rapid pulse indicates the Exterior is not resolved; panting with sweating indicates Ge Gen Huangqin Tang (Kudzu Root and Scutellaria Decoction). If there is vexation, bitter taste in the mouth, abdominal fullness with panting, fever with sweating, aversion to cold is absent, and there is aversion to heat, this is a Yangming syndrome; however, if the pulse is floating and tight, it indicates simultaneous Exterior and Interior syndromes, where neither sweating nor purgation is suitable. Zhi Zi Chi Tang (Gardenia and Fermented Soybean Decoction) should be used to induce vomiting. This is Zhang Zhongjing's method for treating Cold Damage with simultaneous Exterior and Interior syndromes.
Wang Haogu said: Da Chaihu Tang (Major Bupleurum Decoction) treats syndromes where heat exists in both the Exterior and Interior, internally and externally. For cases with Exterior symptoms, such as a floating pulse, headache, aversion to wind, or aversion to cold, if one or two of these four symptoms persist, it indicates that after thirteen days, the disease has passed through the meridians but has not resolved. For cases with Interior symptoms, such as delirium, visual hallucinations, or throwing objects and staring upward, these are all urgent Interior conditions. If one wishes to sweat, the Interior condition is already critical; if one wishes to purge, the Exterior condition still exists. Da Chaihu Tang is generally used.
