凡少感微风，顿然头疼鼻塞，咳嗽喷嚏，呵欠喘急，身热脉浮，停寒凄清，此谓
伤风。因肺主皮毛，传入肺经，故多咳嗽，其虎口三关指纹红紫而长，其脉左寸人迎脉
大，为外感症也。（或云肝以候风，当左关。）复有伤风而自利，腹胀而手足冷者，此脾怯也，
当与和脾而兼发散。有潮热多睡，气粗呕吐，乳食不消，大便黄白而咳嗽者，此乃脾
肺受寒，不能入仓而故吐也。如潮热而日根据期发者，或壮热不已者，此必欲成痫候也。
若伤风而多泪，胁痛目肿咳嗽者，此伤风兼肝也。舌苦颜赤汗流咳嗽者，此兼心也。面
黄唇肿，减食恶心者，此兼脾也。颐白眶肿，上气喘急，肌栗毛焦者，此兼肺也。腰
疼而嗽者，此兼肾也。
《灵枢》曰∶小骨弱肉者，善病寒热，何以候骨之大小，肉之坚脆？颧骨者，骨之
本也，颧大则骨大，颧小则骨小。皮肤薄而其肉无 ，（无 者，肉无分理也。）其臂懦懦然，
（欲知髓之虚满，又验臂之浓薄，故臂薄者，其骨必小，其髓不满，脑为髓腑，风池、
风府内通于脑，脑髓不充，则邪易入以为病也。）
治脾脏发咳，右胁痛，痛引肩背及阳明发痰等症。
升麻 白芍药 甘草（各二钱） 葛根（三钱） 水煎服。
右胁者脾胃之乡，肩者手阳明之脉，斑由胃热，胃主肌肉，升麻、葛根直入阳明而
逐其邪热，佐以芍药，使以甘草，和其营，俾无伏匿之邪也。其治发斑，止宜于将出
者，若已出而用之，重虚其表，反增斑烂矣。
凡是轻微感受微风，突然引起头痛、鼻塞，伴有咳嗽、打喷嚏，打哈欠、呼吸急促，身体发热、脉象浮，怕冷且感到凄凉清冷，这叫做伤风。因为肺主司皮毛，病邪传入肺经，所以多出现咳嗽症状；观察其虎口三关处的指纹红紫且长，左侧寸口的人迎脉大，这是外感病症的表现。（有人说肝主候风，应当看左关脉。）又有伤风而自发性腹泻，腹部胀满且手脚冰冷的，这是脾虚怯弱，应当用调和脾胃兼以发散表邪的方法治疗。有潮热、嗜睡，气粗、呕吐，乳食不消化，大便黄白相间且咳嗽的，这是脾肺受寒，不能正常运化食物而导致的呕吐。如果潮热按固定时间发作，或者高热不退的，这必定要发展成痫证（癫痫）。如果伤风而流泪多，胁痛、目肿、咳嗽的，这是伤风兼及肝脏。舌干苦、面色红赤、出汗、咳嗽的，这是兼及心脏。面色发黄、嘴唇肿胀、食欲减退、恶心的，这是兼及脾脏。下巴发白、眼眶肿胀、上气喘急、肌肉战栗、毛发枯焦的，这是兼及肺脏。腰痛且咳嗽的，这是兼及肾脏。
《灵枢》说：骨骼小、肌肉弱的，容易患寒热病。如何判断骨骼的大小和肌肉的坚实脆弱呢？颧骨是骨骼的根本，颧骨大则骨骼大，颧骨小则骨骼小。皮肤薄且肌肉没有纹理分理（所谓无纹理分理，是指肌肉缺乏清晰的肌理结构），手臂软弱无力。想要知道骨髓的虚实饱满程度，又要验证手臂的粗细厚薄，所以手臂薄的，其骨骼必然小，骨髓必然不充盈。脑为髓之府，风池穴和风府穴内部连通于脑，如果脑髓不充盈，则邪气容易侵入从而致病。
此方用于治疗脾脏引发的咳嗽，右侧胁肋疼痛，疼痛牵引至肩背，以及阳明经引发的发斑等症。
升麻、白芍药、甘草（各二钱）、葛根（三钱），用水煎服。
右胁部是脾胃所在的部位，肩部是手阳明大肠经的经脉循行处。发斑是由于胃热所致，胃主司肌肉，升麻、葛根直接入阳明经而驱逐邪热，辅以芍药，佐使甘草，来调和营卫，使得没有潜伏隐匿的邪气存在。治疗发斑，只适宜在斑疹将要发出时使用，如果斑疹已经发出后再使用，会严重耗伤体表正气，反而增加斑疹溃烂的程度。
When one is slightly exposed to a gentle breeze, sudden headache and nasal congestion occur, accompanied by coughing, sneezing, yawning, rapid breathing, fever, and a floating pulse. The patient feels aversion to cold and experiences a sense of desolation and chill; this is termed Wind Injury (Shang Feng). Since the Lung governs the skin and hair, pathogenic factors transmit into the Lung Meridian, resulting in frequent coughing. Observation of the Three Passages (San Guan) at the tiger's mouth shows red-purple fingerprints that are long. The Yingxiang pulse (Renying Mai) at the left Cun position is large, indicating an exogenous syndrome. (Some argue that the Liver governs the observation of wind, so the Left Guan position should be examined.) There are cases of Wind Injury with spontaneous diarrhea, abdominal distension, and cold hands and feet; this indicates Spleen Deficiency and Timidity, requiring treatment to harmonize the Spleen while simultaneously dispersing the exterior. Cases presenting with tidal fever, excessive sleepiness, coarse breathing, vomiting, indigestion of milk and food, yellowish-white loose stools, and coughing indicate Cold affecting both the Spleen and Lung, leading to vomiting due to the inability to process food properly. If tidal fever occurs at fixed times or high fever persists without abating, it is certain to develop into Epilepsy (Xian Hou). If Wind Injury is accompanied by excessive tearing, hypochondriac pain, swollen eyes, and coughing, it indicates Wind Injury involving the Liver. A bitter taste in the tongue, reddish face, sweating, and coughing indicate involvement of the Heart. Yellowish complexion, swollen lips, reduced appetite, and nausea indicate involvement of the Spleen. Whitening of the chin, swollen eye orbits, upper asthma (rapid breathing), muscle tremors, and scorched hair indicate involvement of the Lung. Lower back pain with coughing indicates involvement of the Kidney.
The *Ling Shu* states: "Those with small bones and weak flesh are prone to cold-heat diseases." How can one distinguish the size of bones and the firmness or fragility of flesh? The zygomatic bone is the root of the skeletal structure; a large zygomatic bone implies large bones, and a small zygomatic bone implies small bones. Thin skin and flesh lacking distinct texture lines (meaning the flesh lacks clear myofascial separation), along with arms that appear soft and flaccid, are indicators. To determine the deficiency or fullness of marrow, one must examine the thickness of the arms; thin arms imply small bones and insufficient marrow. The Brain is the Mansion of Marrow. Fengchi (GB20) and Fengfu (GV16) internally connect to the brain. If brain marrow is not充盈 (full/abundant), pathogens easily invade to cause disease.
This formula treats Cough originating from the Spleen organ, pain in the right hypochondrium radiating to the shoulder and back, and Erythema (Fa Ban) caused by the Yangming Meridian.
Shengma (Rhizoma Cimicifugae), Baishaoyao (Radix Paeoniae Rubra), Gancao (Radix Glycyrrhizae) (each 2 qian), Gegen (Puerariae Lobatae Radix) (3 qian). Decoct in water and take orally.
The right hypochondrium is the region of the Spleen and Stomach; the shoulder is the pathway of the Hand-Yangming Large Intestine Meridian. Erythema arises from Stomach Heat. As the Stomach governs the muscles, Shengma and Gegen enter the Yangming Meridian directly to expel pathogenic heat. They are assisted by Shaoyao and guided by Gancao to harmonize Ying (Nutrient) Qi, ensuring no latent pathogens remain. For treating Erythema, this formula is only suitable when the rash is about to erupt. If used after the rash has already appeared, it will severely deplete the exterior defenses, worsening the erosion and ulceration of the rash.
