良久擘开自有毛，即掷之。
天钓
天风外触内热痰，痰因乳母爱酸咸；
天钓属阳，由乳母酒食煎炒咸酸过度，毒瓦斯入乳，遂令芽儿心肺生热，痰郁气滞，加之外感，天风触动，
卒然目直身强，如鱼上钩之状，故曰天钓。
搐热眼翻如邪祟，
壮热惊搐，手足抽掣，眼目翻腾，或啼或笑，喜怒不常，如邪祟状。
甚者爪甲亦青蓝；通用钩藤并保命，

挟食疏通和胃兼。
挟积受惊，肚热胀硬，睡中腹内跳动，宜宽热饮，泄下恶臭，然后与调和脾胃之药治之。此等不可误作
惊风。
内钓
内钓五内抽掣痛（即钓肠气），原因胎惊胎风动（胎中风气壅结，兼惊而得）；
眼有红筋（血点）身反张，唇黑偃啼外肾肿。吐泻方子外搐来，内外兼攻实可恐；谁知至宝钩藤膏，调
（气）镇（惊）疏风内外共。
惊风内钓，腹中极痛，偃啼，面青肢冷，尿如米泔者，钩藤膏∶乳香、没药各三钱，木香、姜黄各四钱，

菖蒲、钩藤煎汤化下。内钓阴肿便秘者，归牛散。以上皆调气疏风之剂，若惊重者，宜定魄丸以镇之。
盘肠腰干虫呕攻，
盘肠痛，因寒郁小肠，亦腹痛多啼，与内钓相似，但痛则曲腰、干啼、额汗为异。古方用白豆蔻、砂仁、
青皮、陈皮、香附、莪术、甘草等分为末、紫苏煎汤下。虫证亦与内钓相似，但虫痛攻心，叫哭合眼，呕吐涎
沫清水，四肢羸瘦，面青黄，或寒或热，沉默不知病处，发作有时为异，化虫丸主之。一切积痛、盘肠、虫痛
者，通用沉乳感应丸∶沉香、乳香、杏仁、木香、丁香各一钱，肉豆蔻一个，百草霜一分，巴豆十四粒，为末，
酒煮过黄蜡和丸绿豆大，每四丸，姜汤或钩藤煎汤下。痢疾亦宜。
中风不语似三种。
盘肠、虫证、中风，三种俱似内钓，但中风不语为异，治与大人一同。小儿有中风后，喑不能言者，用
木香、陈皮、甘草煎汤吞肥儿丸，内有黄连，能去心窍恶血故也。有肺风喘促涎潮，窜视者，用阿胶、紫苏、
乌梅、人参煎服。盖阿胶能育神，惊风后眼中瞳子不正者最宜。
疝气
疝气亦因胎患得，
有因父服热药，以致气滞于下者；有因孕妇伤啼哭，冷气入胎中而成此疾者；有久坐湿地而得者。
多啼冷气传肾经；
有因儿多啼不已，冷气吸入，小肠钓痛传流肾经而得者。又有木肾、有肾肿、有肾痈、有偏坠、有 疝、
有奔豚、有疝瘕，与大
科同。
面青吐沫阴囊肿，
甚则小便淋涩，阴囊肿痛者，用甘草汁调地龙粪涂之。风热外肾 赤肿痛，日夜啼叫，不数日退皮如鸡卵
壳，愈而复作者，用老杉木烧灰，入腻粉、清油调敷，神效。
小腹痛连腰背倾；
诸疝皆因肾虚，寒邪冷湿之气，侵入膀胱之经，留而不散，故阴核肿硬沉坠。治法∶先宜疏利，次用逐寒温
脏之药。按穴灸之。惟木肾、肾痈、疮毒之气入于肾经，久则成脓。治法∶外用拔毒之药敷贴，内服消散痈毒、
排脓、利水道等药。
先宜疏导归牛散，
肉桂、牵牛各五钱，当归、大黄、桃仁各二钱半，全蝎一钱。每一钱入蜜煎服。利后，以青皮、陈皮、茯苓、

金铃肉一两，砂仁七钱半，荜澄茄、木香各五钱，为末。每一钱，大者二钱，盐汤或酒调服。治疝痛时，
先曲腰干啼，脚冷唇干，额汗，或外肾钓上，阴囊偏大。通用∶钩藤膏、魏术散。
变蒸
变则气升蒸则热，
变者，变生五脏；蒸者，蒸养六腑。故变则上气，蒸则体热。
八蒸十变长气血；
小儿初生，形体虽具，脏腑气血尚未成就，而精、神、志、意、魂、魄俱未生全，故三十二日一变，六十四
日一蒸，凡遇一变，即觉性情有异于前，上唇中心有一点白者是也。初生至三十二日，一变生癸水，属足少阴肾
主精；至六十四日，一蒸二变生壬水，属足太阳膀胱，其发，耳与尻冷；至九十六日，三变生丁火，属手少阴
心，主藏神，其性为喜；至一百二十八日，二蒸四变生丙火，属手太阳小肠，其发，汗出而微惊；至一百六十
日，五变生乙木，属足厥阴肝，主藏魂，喜笑；至一百九十二日，三蒸六变生甲木，属足少阳胆，其发，两目不
闭而赤；至二百二十四日，七变生辛金，属手太阴肺，主藏魄，生声；至二百五十六日，四蒸八变生庚金，属
手阳明大肠，其发，肤热而汗，或不汗；至二百八十八日，九变生己土，属足太阴脾，主藏意与智；至三百二
十日，五蒸十变生戊土，属足阳明胃，其发，不食肠痛而吐乳。又手厥阴心包络，与手少阳三焦，二经俱无形状，
故不变而不蒸。十变五蒸者，天地之数以生成之。然后生意志、能言语、知喜怒，故云始全也。十变后六十四
日为一大蒸，计三百八十四日，长其经脉手足，故手受血而能持物，足受血而能行立；又六十四日为二大蒸，
计四百四十八日，则言语、意志有异于前；又六十四日为三大蒸，计五百一十二日，变蒸既毕，学语倚立，扶步
能食，血脉筋骨皆牢。禀气盛者，暗合而无外证；禀气弱者，乃有蒸病。
轻则潮汗微似惊，
轻则发热微汗似惊，五日乃解。
重则壮热吐且渴；
重则壮热，脉乱而数，或吐或汗，或烦啼燥渴，七八日始解，与伤寒相似。亦有变蒸之后，续感寒邪者，
如蒸于肝，则目昏微赤；蒸于肺，则嚏嗽毛耸，随证调治。
治贵平和汗下微，
不汗而热，微发其汗；若吐下者，微止之。不可妄治，宜平和饮子∶白茯苓一钱半，人参、甘草各五分，
升麻二分。禀受弱者，加白术一钱，水煎服。变蒸前后三日各进一服，可免百病，及百日内亦宜。吐泻不乳多
啼者，和气散∶木香、香附、浓朴、人参、陈皮、藿香、甘草各等分，姜枣前服。宿乳者，紫霜丸。痰热者，
惺惺散。
柴胡当归寒热遏。

有寒无热者，当归汤∶当归四分，木香、辣桂、人参、甘草各二分，姜枣煎服。蒸热甚者，紫阳黑散。积热寒
热如疟者，梨浆饮。
龟胸龟背
（附解颅囟填囟陷滞颐）
龟胸肺热百合丹，
妊孕及乳子时，多食五辛炙爆淹藏，生下婴孩，或胸前高起，形如龟状，此肺经受热也。行动喘乏，但遇
风寒，或多食，则痰嗽气急喘满，肢体瘦悴，久而不治，将成疳痨之疾，百合丹主之∶大黄三分，天门冬、杏
仁、百合、木通、桑白皮、甜葶苈、石膏各五钱，为末，炼蜜丸，如绿豆大。每服一十五丸，食后临卧熟水
吞下。
龟背客风松蕊验。
婴儿生下不能护背，客风吹脊，入于骨髓所致。或小儿坐早，伛偻，背高如龟，多成痼疾。间有灸肺俞、
膈俞，炷粟米大艾，三五壮收功。内服松蕊丹∶松花、枳壳、防风、独活各一两，麻黄，前胡、大黄、桂心各
五钱，为末炼蜜丸，如黍米大。每服十丸或二十丸，粥饮下，量儿大小加减用之。或外以乌龟尿点脊骨缝中，效。
解颅原是肾家虚，
小儿年大，头缝开解而不合，肾主髓，脑为髓海，肾气有亏，脑髓不足所致。凡脑髓欠少，如木无根，不过
千日，终成废人，宜肾气丸，或八物汤加酒炒芩、连，外用南星、白蔹为末，醋调摊红帛上，烘热贴之；或颅头
骨烧灰，油调敷缝中，外作头布遮护。其父母宜服肾气丸、虎潜丸，俾精血充足，后育子女，无是患也。
风热囟填脾亏陷。
囟填者，囟门肿起也。脾主肌肉，乳哺不常，饥饱无度，或寒或热乘脾，以致脏腑不调，其气上冲填胀，
囟高而突，毛发短黄自汗。若寒气上冲则牢 ，宜温之；热气上冲则柔软，宜凉之，剂量轻重，兼与调气。又有
肝盛，风热交攻，以致囟填突起者，泻青丸。如因惊热者，惊风即至。囟陷者，囟门成坑也。始因脏腑有热，
渴饮水浆，致成泄利，久则气血虚弱，不能上充脑髓，故囟陷如坑，不得平满，宜黄狗头骨，炙黄为末，鸡子
清调敷。
滞颐热者胃火炎，冷涎胃弱不收饮。
滞颐者，口涎流出而渍于颐间也。热涎稠粘者，乃胃火炎上也，宜通心饮，或泻黄散加减。冷涎自流者，
乃胃虚不能收约也，宜木香半夏丸∶木香、半夏、丁香各五钱，白姜、白术、青皮、陈皮各二钱半，为末，
蒸饼丸，麻子大。一岁十丸，二岁倍之，米汤灌下。
五软五硬
五软皆因禀受亏，行迟语迟齿发迟；
五软者，头项软、手软、脚软、身软、口软是也。头软，头不能正，详肾疳条。项软，天柱倒也。有吐泻
久弱者，宜补脾胃；有伤寒不及发表成者，难治。有肝胆伏热，面红唇红肌热者，羊角散∶羚羊角、白茯苓、

体虚不食，及诸病后天柱骨倒。外用生筋散∶木鳖子六个，蓖麻子六十个俱去壳捣烂，先抱起儿头，摩项上令
热，后用津液调匀贴之，效。贴项方∶生附子、南星等分为末，生姜自然汁调，敷颈项软处。手软，无力以动也，
所受肝弱，两手筋缩不能舒伸。
薏苡丸∶薏苡仁、当归、秦艽、酸枣仁、防风、羌活各一两，为末，蜜丸芡实大。每一丸至二丸，麝香、荆芥
煎汤化下。脚软行迟，乃骨髓不满，气血不充，筋弱不能束骨，宜肾气丸加牛膝、五加皮、鹿茸。五六岁不能
行者，羊角丸∶羚羊角、虎胫骨、生地，酸枣仁、白茯苓各五钱，桂心、防风、当归、黄 各二钱半，为末，
蜜丸皂子大。每一丸或三丸，温酒化下。三岁不能行者，用五加皮一两，牛膝、木瓜各五钱，为末，每二钱，
米饮入酒少许调服。有脚指蜷缩无力，不能展伸者，海桐散∶海桐皮、牡丹皮、当归、熟地、牛膝各二分，
山茱萸、补骨脂各一分，葱煎服。有鹤节风，俗云鼓槌风。乃肾虚精髓内耗，为风邪所袭，皮肤不荣，日渐枯
瘁，如鹤脚之节，宜肾气丸，加五加皮、鹿茸、牛膝。身软肉少，皮肤自离，饮食不为肌肤，四君子汤、紧皮丸。
遍身筋软者，鹿茸四斤丸，加当归、青盐各等分，口软语迟，婴儿在胎，母卒有惊怖，惊气乘胞络之经，使
生子心神不足，舌本不通，四五岁犹不能言，菖蒲丸∶石菖蒲、人参、麦门冬、远志、川芎、当归各二钱，
乳香、朱砂各一钱，为末，蜜丸麻子大。每十丸，米饮下。诸病后不能语者，鸡头丸∶雄鸡头一个、鸣蝉三个
厚朴、甘草用盐水煮，各取二钱半；附子、犀角各一钱；全蝎七个，每个用薄荷叶包裹，用热水浸泡一个时辰，烤黄后研成细末，用竹沥水制成如黑豆大小的丸剂。每次服用一丸，用金银花、薄荷煎汤，根据患儿年龄大小调整剂量化开服用。癫痫发作后失音不能说话的，用南星在湿纸上煨至香气溢出，研成细末，每服一字（约0.5-1克），用雄猪胆汁调服，有效。癫痫痊愈后复发的，使用断痫丹。长期癫痫导致气血不足的，使用活虎丹。
全身僵硬称为“痉”，整天不醒分刚痉和柔痉两种；
先出现胡言乱语而后发病的称为刚痉，应当发汗解表；先出现四肢冰冷而后发病的称为柔痉，应当解肌祛风。
柔痉用理中汤或麻黄葛根汤，
柔痉可用理中汤、三生饮；刚痉用麻黄汤合葛根汤。
通用方剂可使用断痫丹或小续命汤。
断痫丹、小续命汤的详细用法，请参见杂病篇及伤寒门。
客忤
客忤是指被异物突然触碰而受惊。
心气不足，遇到人或异物干扰，就会因忤逆而惊恐，脾脏寒冷则腹痛，夜间多啼哭。
症状类似癫痫但眼球不转动；吐白沫、抽搐、气喘、腹痛，可用雄麝散、千金龙胆汤灌服。
雄麝散：雄黄一钱，乳香五分，麝香一字，研成细末。每次取一字，刺破鸡冠血调匀灌服，同时用母亲穿过的衣服覆盖患儿身体即可痊愈。也可选用钩藤散、千金龙胆汤、保命丹。外用灶心土、蚯蚓等分研末，醋调成丸，摩擦患儿头部及手心、脚心、胸口、肚脐（五心），详见前文夜啼条。若中了马汗气臭导致的忤逆，或被马鸣声惊吓导致的忤逆，可用马尾烧烟，频繁熏患儿的脸，以病愈为度；或者先用姜汤送服苏合香丸，再用豆豉水湿润捣烂做成如鸡蛋大的药丸，摩擦患儿囟门及足心各五六次，再摩擦肚脐及上下部位，许久后掰开药丸，若有毛发粘附其上，即将其扔掉。
天钓
外感天风，内蕴热痰，痰浊因乳母饮食过食酸咸而生；
天钓属于阳证，由乳母饮酒、食用煎炒及过咸过酸食物，毒气进入乳汁，致使婴儿心肺生热，痰郁气滞，加上外感天风触动，突然眼睛直视、身体僵硬，像鱼上钩的样子，所以叫天钓。
高热惊厥，眼珠翻白如同邪祟附体，
壮热惊厥抽搐，手足抽动，眼目翻腾，有时啼哭有时笑，喜怒无常，像被邪祟附身的样子。
严重的指甲也呈青蓝色；通用钩藤散并配合保命丹治疗，
钩藤散：人参、犀角各五分，全蝎、天麻各二分，甘草一分，水煎温服。风热偏盛的，用保命丹；痰盛者，用抱龙丸；热痰者，用滚痰丸。
兼有食积的需疏通肠胃、调和胃气。
兼有积滞且受惊，腹部发热胀硬，睡眠中腹部跳动，宜用宽热饮，泻下恶臭粪便，然后再给予调和脾胃的药物进行治疗。这类病症不可误当作惊风治疗。
内钓
内钓表现为五脏内部抽掣疼痛（即钓肠气），原因是胎惊胎风扰动（胎中风气壅结，兼受惊吓所致）；
眼睛有红血丝（血点），身体反张，嘴唇发黑，仰卧啼哭，外生殖器肿胀。伴有呕吐腹泻及抽搐时，内外兼攻确实令人担忧；谁知至宝钩藤膏，能调理气机、镇惊、疏风，内外同治。
惊风与内钓，腹中剧烈疼痛，仰卧啼哭，面色青紫，四肢冰冷，小便如米泔水样的，用钩藤膏：乳香、没药各三钱，木香、姜黄各四钱，木鳖肉十一个，研成细末；蜂蜜调制成膏剂，收于砂罐内。根据患儿年龄大小调整剂量，用钩藤煎汤或四磨汤化开服下。随后服用五味木香散：川楝肉七个，用巴豆三十五粒去皮同炒，豆黄去巴豆，木香、使君子、玄胡索、茴香各一钱，研成细末。根据患儿年龄大小调整剂量，米饮调服。内钓冷痛者，用古芎归汤加干姜、肉桂等分，丁香、沉香、青皮、小茴减半，水煎服。疼痛剧烈的，用魏术散：莪术五钱，阿魏一钱，先用温水化开阿魏浸泡莪术一昼夜，焙干研末。每次取一字，紫苏煎汤或米饮调服。内钓腹痛惊啼者，用乳香丸：乳香五分，没药、沉香各一钱，蝎梢十四个，槟榔一钱半，研末蜜丸如梧桐子大。每次一至二丸，菖蒲、钩藤煎汤化开服用。内钓阴囊肿大便秘者，用归牛散。以上皆是调理气机、疏风止痛的方剂，若惊重者，宜用定魄丸以镇惊安神。
盘肠痛腰部弯曲，虫证呕吐攻冲，
盘肠痛，因寒邪郁结小肠，也是腹痛多啼，与内钓相似，但疼痛时弯腰、干啼、额头出汗是其特征。古方用白豆蔻、砂仁、青皮、陈皮、香附、莪术、甘草等分研末，紫苏煎汤送服。虫证也与内钓相似，但虫痛攻心，叫哭闭眼，呕吐涎沫清水，四肢消瘦，面色青黄，或寒或热，沉默不知病痛所在，发作有定时是其特征，主用化虫丸。一切积滞疼痛、盘肠痛、虫痛者，通用沉乳感应丸：沉香、乳香、杏仁、木香、丁香各一钱，肉豆蔻一个，百草霜一分，巴豆十四粒，研末，酒煮过用黄蜡和丸如绿豆大，每次四丸，姜汤或钩藤煎汤送服。痢疾也适宜。
中风不语症状类似这三种情况。
盘肠、虫证、中风，这三种病状都类似内钓，但中风不语是其特征，治疗方法与成人相同。小儿中风后，失音不能说话的，用木香、陈皮、甘草煎汤吞服肥儿丸，因为丸中含有黄连，能去除心窍恶血。有肺风喘促、痰液涌流、眼球窜视的，用阿胶、紫苏、乌梅、人参煎服。因为阿胶能滋养神志，惊风后眼中瞳孔不正者最适宜。
疝气
疝气也多因胎中患病所致，
有的因父亲服用热性药物，导致气滞于下焦；有的因孕妇悲伤啼哭，冷气进入胎中而成此疾；有的因久坐湿地而得。
多啼哭导致冷气传入肾经；
有的因婴儿长时间啼哭不止，吸入冷气，小肠牵引疼痛传流至肾经而得。又有木肾、肾肿、肾痈、偏坠、狐疝、奔豚、疝瘕，与成人科病相同。
面色青紫、吐白沫、阴囊肿大，
严重时小便淋涩不通，阴囊肿痛者，用甘草汁调地龙粪涂抹。风热导致外生殖器红肿疼痛，日夜啼叫，数日后脱皮如鸡卵壳，愈合后又复发的，用老杉木烧灰，加入腻粉、清油调敷，效果神奇。
小腹痛牵连腰背倾斜；
各种疝气皆因肾虚，寒邪冷湿之气侵入膀胱经脉，停留不散，故阴囊核肿大坚硬沉重下垂。治法：先宜疏导通利，其次用逐寒温脏的药物。按穴位施灸。只有木肾、肾痈、疮毒之气入于肾经，久则成脓。治法：外用拔毒药物敷贴，内服消散痈毒、排脓、利水道等药物。
先宜疏导，用归牛散，
肉桂、牵牛各五钱，当归、大黄、桃仁各二钱半，全蝎一钱。每次一钱，加蜜煎服。通便后，以青皮、陈皮、茯苓、木香、砂仁、甘草、生姜煎服，调和胃气。唇色青紫者，预后不良（死症）。治疗疝气便秘，小腹阴囊牵引剧痛，夜间啼哭。
其次给予和胃的羡金铃散。
金铃肉一两，砂仁七钱半，荜澄茄、木香各五钱，研成细末。每次一钱，体质强者二钱，盐汤或酒调服。治疗疝痛时，先弯腰干啼，脚冷唇干，额头出汗，或外生殖器上缩，阴囊一侧肿大。通用方：钩藤膏、魏术散。
变蒸
变指气机上升，蒸指体内发热，
变，是指五脏功能的演变生成；蒸，是指六腑的蒸养成熟。所以变则上气，蒸则体表发热。
经过八次蒸五次变，增长气血；
小儿初生，形体虽已具备，但脏腑气血尚未成就，精、神、志、意、魂、魄都未完全生成，所以三十二日一变，六十四日一蒸。凡遇一变，即发觉性情与前不同，上唇中心有一点白色的是标志。初生至三十二日，一变生癸水，属足少阴肾，主精；至六十四日，一蒸二变生壬水，属足太阳膀胱，其表现，耳部和尾骶部发冷；至九十六日，三变生丁火，属手少阴心，主藏神，其性为喜；至一百二十八日，二蒸四变生丙火，属手太阳小肠，其表现，出汗且轻微惊悸；至一百六十日，五变生乙木，属足厥阴肝，主藏魂，喜笑；至一百九十二日，三蒸六变生甲木，属足少阳胆，其表现，两眼不闭合且发红；至二百二十四日，七变生辛金，属手太阴肺，主藏魄，发出声音；至二百五十六日，四蒸八变生庚金，属手阳明大肠，其表现，皮肤发热出汗，或不出汗；至二百八十八日，九变生己土，属足太阴脾，主藏意与智；至三百二十日，五蒸十变生戊土，属足阳明胃，其表现，不进食、肠痛而吐乳。又手厥阴心包络，与手少阳三焦，这两经都没有具体形状，所以不变也不蒸。十变五蒸，符合天地生成的数理。然后产生意志、能言语、知喜怒，所以说此时才算完整。十变后六十四日为一大蒸，共计三百八十四日，生长其经脉手足，所以手受血而能持物，足受血而能行走站立；又六十四日为二大蒸，共计四百四十八日，则言语、意志与前不同；又六十四日为三大蒸，共计五百一十二日，变蒸既已结束，学习说话依靠站立扶持，能进食，血脉筋骨皆坚固。禀赋气盛者，暗合规律而无外在症状；禀赋气弱者，则有变蒸病。
轻则潮热出汗微似惊风，
轻则发热微汗，似惊风，五日自愈。
重则高热呕吐且口渴；
重则高热，脉象紊乱而数，或呕吐或出汗，或烦躁啼哭燥渴，七八日始解，与伤寒相似。也有变蒸之后，继续感受寒邪的，如蒸于肝，则眼睛昏花微红；蒸于肺，则打喷嚏咳嗽、毫毛竖起，随证调理治疗。
治疗贵在平和，微汗微下，
不因汗出而热退，微发其汗；若用吐下法，微止之。不可妄治，宜用平和饮子：白茯苓一钱半，人参、甘草各五分，升麻二分。禀赋弱者，加白术一钱，水煎服。变蒸前后三日各进一服，可免百病，及百日内也适宜。吐泻不乳多啼者，用和气散：木香、香附、厚朴、人参、陈皮、藿香、甘草各等分，姜枣煎前服。宿乳停滞者，用紫霜丸。痰热者，用惺惺散。

龟胸龟背
（附解颅、囟填、囟陷、滞颐）
龟胸因肺热，用百合丹，
妊娠及哺乳期，多食五辛炙爆腌藏食物，生下婴儿，或胸前高起，形如龟状，这是肺经受热所致。行动喘息乏力，只遇风寒，或多食，则痰嗽气急喘满，肢体瘦弱，久而不治，将成疳痨之疾，主用百合丹：大黄三分，天门冬、杏仁、百合、木通、桑白皮、甜葶苈、石膏各五钱，研末，炼蜜丸，如绿豆大。每次服十五丸，食后临卧熟水吞下。
龟背因客风侵袭，松蕊丹有效。
婴儿生下不能保护背部，客风吹袭脊柱，深入骨髓所致。或小儿坐得太早，驼背，背高如龟，多成顽疾。间有用灸肺俞、膈俞穴，艾炷如粟米大，三五壮收功。内服松蕊丹：松花、枳壳、防风、独活各一两，麻黄、前胡、大黄、桂心各五钱，研末炼蜜丸，如黍米大。每次服十丸或二十丸，粥饮送下，根据患儿年龄大小调整用量。或外用乌龟尿点涂脊骨缝隙中，有效。
解颅原是肾家虚弱，
小儿年岁较大，头缝开裂不合，肾主髓，脑为髓海，肾气亏损，脑髓不足所致。凡脑髓欠少，如树无根，不过千日，终成废人，宜用肾气丸，或八物汤加酒炒黄芩、黄连，外用南星、白蔹研末，醋调摊在红帛上，烘热贴敷；或颅顶骨烧灰，油调敷于缝隙中，外用头布遮盖保护。其父母宜服肾气丸、虎潜丸，使精血充足，以后生育子女，无此患也。
风热致囟填，脾虚致囟陷。
囟填，指囟门肿起。脾主肌肉，哺乳不规律，饥饱无度，或寒或热乘脾，以致脏腑不调，其气上冲填胀，囟门高突，毛发短黄自汗。若寒气上冲则坚硬，宜温之；热气上冲则柔软，宜凉之，剂量轻重，兼以调气。又有肝盛，风热交攻，以致囟填突起者，用泻青丸。如因惊热者，惊风即至。囟陷者，囟门成坑也。始因脏腑有热，渴饮水浆，致成泄利，久则气血虚弱，不能上充脑髓，故囟陷如坑，不得平满，宜用黄狗头骨，炙黄研末，鸡蛋清调敷。
滞颐热者为胃火炎上，冷涎为胃弱不收。
滞颐，指口涎流出浸渍于面颊间。热涎稠粘者，乃胃火炎上也，宜用通心饮，或泻黄散加减。冷涎自流者，乃胃虚不能收约也，宜用木香半夏丸：木香、半夏、丁香各五钱，白姜、白术、青皮、陈皮各二钱半，研末，蒸饼丸，如麻子大。一岁十丸，二岁加倍，米汤灌服。

五软皆因禀受亏虚，行迟、语迟、齿发迟；
五软者，头项软、手软、脚软、身软、口软是也。头软，头不能正，详见肾疳条。项软，即天柱骨倒。有吐泻久弱者，宜补脾胃；有伤寒不及发表而成的，难治。有肝胆伏热，面红唇红肌热者，用羊角散：羚羊角、白茯苓、虎胫骨、酸枣仁、桂心、熟地、防风、甘草各等分研末。每次一钱，酒调服，或凉肝丸：防风三钱，人参、赤茯苓各一钱半，黄芩、茺蔚子、黑参、大黄、知母各一两，研末，蜜丸绿豆大。根据患儿年龄大小，食后茶清送下。兼治痘后目赤肿痛。有风气入肝，筋舒头项软者，用天柱丸：蛇含石一块，火醋淬七次，郁金、麝香各少许，研末，饭丸如龙眼核大。
每次一丸，荆芥煎汤，或金银花、薄荷煎汤化服。通用健骨散：单味僵蚕炒为末。每次三五分，薄荷泡酒调服。治久患痿证，体虚不食，及诸病后天柱骨倒。外用生筋散：木鳖子六个，蓖麻子六十个均去壳捣烂，先抱起患儿头，按摩颈部令热，后用津液调匀贴敷，有效。贴项方：生附子、南星等分研末，生姜自然汁调，敷于颈项软处。手软，无力活动，所受肝气弱，两手筋缩不能舒展。
薏苡丸：薏苡仁、当归、秦艽、酸枣仁、防风、羌活各一两，研末，蜜丸如芡实大。每次一至二丸，麝香、荆芥煎汤化服。脚软行迟，乃骨髓不满，气血不充，筋弱不能束骨，宜用肾气丸加牛膝、五加皮、鹿茸。五六岁不能行者，用羊角丸：羚羊角、虎胫骨、生地，酸枣仁、白茯苓各五钱，桂心、防风、当归、黄芪各二钱半，研末，蜜丸如皂子大。每次一丸或三丸，温酒化服。三岁不能行者，用五加皮一两，牛膝、木瓜各五钱，研末，每次二钱，米饮入少许酒调服。有脚趾蜷缩无力，不能伸展者，用海桐散：海桐皮、牡丹皮、当归、熟地、牛膝各二分，山茱萸、补骨脂各一分，葱煎服。有鹤节风，俗云鼓槌风。乃肾虚精髓内耗，为风邪所袭，皮肤不荣，日渐枯瘦，如鹤脚之节，宜用肾气丸，加五加皮、鹿茸、牛膝。身软肉少，皮肤松弛，饮食不为肌肤，用四君子汤、紧皮丸。遍身筋软者，用鹿茸四斤丸，加当归、青盐各等分。口软语迟，婴儿在胎，母亲突然受惊恐怖，惊气乘胞络之经，使生子心神不足，舌本不通，四五岁犹不能言，用菖蒲丸：石菖蒲、人参、麦门冬、远志、川芎、当归各二钱，乳香、朱砂各一钱，研末，蜜丸如麻子大。每次十丸，米饮送下。诸病后不能语者，用鸡头丸：雄鸡头一个、鸣蝉三个

Gang Jing presents first with delirium before onset, treated by inducing sweating; Rou Jing presents first with cold limbs before onset, treated by releasing the muscle layer.
Rou Jing uses Lizhong Tang or Mahuang Gegen Tang;
Rou Jing uses Lizhong Tang or Sansheng Yin; Gang Jing uses Mahuang Gegen Tang.
Generally, Duanxian Dan or Xiao Xuming Tang can be used.
Duanxian Dan and Xiao Xuming Tang are detailed in the Miscellaneous Diseases and Shanghan sections.
Ke Wu (External Shock)
Ke Wu refers to sudden fright caused by contact with foreign objects.
Insufficient Heart Qi leads to fright upon encountering people or objects; Cold in the Spleen causes pain and frequent night crying.

If hairs appear when opened, discard.
Tian Diao (Heavenly Hook)
External Heavenly Wind combined with internal Heat-Phlegm; Phlegm arises from the nursing mother consuming excessive sour and salty foods.
Tian Diao is a Yang syndrome caused by the mother's consumption of alcohol, fried, salty, and sour foods, transmitting toxins through milk, causing Heat in the infant's Heart and Lung, stagnation of Phlegm and Qi, triggered by external Heavenly Wind. Sudden upward gaze and stiff body resemble a fish hooked, hence the name.

For concurrent food stagnation, regulate the Stomach and promote digestion.
For stagnation with fright, hot and hard abdomen, pulsating during sleep, use Kuanre Yin to purge foul stool, then regulate the Spleen and Stomach. Do not mistake for Convulsive Disease.
Nei Diao (Internal Hook)
Nei Diao involves internal cramping pain (intestinal hook qi), caused by fetal fright and wind (stagnation of wind in the womb plus fright).
Red veins in eyes, opisthotonos, black lips, supine crying, swollen genitals. Vomiting/diarrhea formulas with convulsions indicate severe internal/external attack; Zhibao Gouteng Gao regulates Qi, calms fright, and dispels wind internally and externally.
For severe abdominal pain, supine crying, cyanotic face, cold limbs, rice-water urine due to Fright-Wind Nei Diao, use Gouteng Gao: Resina Draconis (Ruxiang) and Resina Burseraceae (Moyao) each three qian, Radix Aucklandiae (Muxiang) and Rhizoma Curcumae Longae (Jianghuang) each four qian, Semen Momordicae (Mubiezi) eleven pieces, ground into powder, formed into cakes with honey, stored in a clay jar.

For severe fright, use Dingpo Wan to calm.
Panchang (Coiled Intestine) pain involves bending waist, dry crying, forehead sweating; similar to Nei Diao but distinct. Ancient formula uses Bai Doukou, Sha Ren, Qing Pi, Chen Pi, Xiang Fu, Ezhu, Gancao equal parts, taken with Zisu decoction. Worm infestation is similar but involves heart-pain, closing eyes while crying, vomiting clear saliva, emaciation, alternating cold/heat, silence, periodic attacks; treat with Huachong Wan.

After 10 Bians, +64 days = Great Zheng 1 (384 days): meridians/limbs mature, holding/walking.
+64 days = Great Zheng 2 (448 days): language/will change.
+64 days = Great Zheng 3 (512 days): Bian Zheng complete, speech/standing/eating solid, sinews/bones strong.
