注云∶卒暴〔注〕泄,肠胃热甚,则传化失常,火性疾速,故〔如〕是也。
注云∶转,反戾也,热气燥烁于筋,〔则〕挛 而痛也。所谓转者,动也,阳动
阴静,热证明矣。多因热甚,霍乱吐泻,以致脾胃土衰,则肝木自甚,而热燥于
筋,故转筋也。大法曰∶渴则为热,凡霍乱转筋〔而〕不渴者,未之有也。或不因
吐泻,而但外冒于风,腠理闭密,阳气郁结,怫〔热〕内作,热燥于筋,则转
筋也。故诸转筋,以汤渍之,而使腠理开泄,阳气散而愈也。因汤渍之而愈,故反
〔疑〕为寒也。
注云∶天气热则水混浊,寒则水清洁,水体清,火体浊故也。又如清水为汤,则自

注云∶火气热甚,则郁结坚硬如果中核也,不必溃发,但以热气散,则自消也。

注释说:突然暴发的泄泻,是因为肠胃热邪极盛,导致传化功能失常,火性疾速,所以出现这种情况。
注释说:里急后重,是指腹部窘迫、疼痛急迫。这是因为火性急速,且具有燥物的特性所致。
注释说:“转”,即反折拘挛。热气灼烁筋脉,导致筋脉挛急而疼痛。所谓“转”,就是动的意思,阳主动,阴主静,这显然是热证。多因热邪极盛,霍乱吐泻,致使脾胃(土)虚弱,则肝木(相对)偏亢,热邪燥伤筋脉,所以发生转筋。大法则说:口渴的就是热证,凡是霍乱转筋却不口渴的,是没有的。或者并非因为吐泻,而是外感风邪,腠理闭塞,阳气郁结,内部产生怫热,热邪燥伤筋脉,也导致转筋。所以各种转筋,用热水浸泡患处,使腠理开泄,阳气散出而痊愈。因为用热水浸泡而痊愈,所以反而被怀疑是寒证。
注释说:天气热时水浑浊,天冷时水清澈,这是因为水的本体清,火的本体浊的缘故。又比如清水变成汤(热水),自然会变浑浊。
注释说:气属于阳,阳代表热,气盛就会这样。
注释说:病位浅且范围大。经文说:热邪胜过血分就会形成痈脓。
注释说:病位深且令人厌恶。
注释说:有头的小疮疡。
注释说:浮在表面且细小的瘾疹。
注释说:红色的瘤(丹毒),是热邪胜过气分的表现,也是火的色泽。
注释说:火气热邪极盛,就会郁结坚硬如同果核,不一定需要溃破排脓,只要热邪消散,自然就会消退。
注释说:三焦是水谷传化的通道,热邪极盛,导致传化失常,从而出现吐泻霍乱,这是火性燥动所致。大法则说:吐利伴烦渴为热证,不渴为寒证。或者是热性吐泻,刚发病时也可能不渴,如果不止,耗伤津液后必然口渴。或者是寒证本来不渴,如果不止,津液亡失过多,也会因干燥而口渴。如果是寒证,脉象应当沉细而迟;如果是热证,脉象应当实大而数。或者如果损伤气机、亡失津液过于严重,脉象也不能表现为实数,反而变得缓弱。虽然如此,也不再属于热证了。
The commentary states: Sudden and violent diarrhea (Bao Zhu) occurs when intestinal and stomach heat is excessive, leading to dysfunction in transmission and transformation. Since the nature of fire is rapid, this condition arises accordingly.
The commentary states: Tenesmus (Hou Zhong Li Ji) refers to a sense of urgency and painful straining in the lower abdomen. This is due to the rapid nature of fire and its ability to dry substances.
The commentary states: "Zhuan" refers to reverse flexion or spasmodic contraction. Heat scorching the sinews causes them to contract and become painful. The term "Zhuan" implies movement; Yang governs movement, while Yin governs stillness, clearly indicating a heat syndrome. This often results from extreme heat causing Huoluan (cholera-like vomiting and diarrhea), which weakens the Spleen and Stomach (Earth element), allowing the Liver Wood to become relatively excessive. Heat then dries the sinews, causing muscle cramps (Zhuan Jin). The general principle states: Thirst indicates heat. There has never been a case of Huoluan with muscle cramps without thirst. Alternatively, if not caused by vomiting and diarrhea but by external wind invasion closing the pores (Cou Li), causing Qi stagnation and internal accumulation of stifling heat (Fu Re), the heat dries the sinews, also causing muscle cramps. Therefore, for various muscle cramps, soaking in hot water opens the pores, dissipates the Yang Qi, and leads to recovery. Because recovery follows hot water soaking, it was mistakenly suspected to be a cold syndrome.
The commentary states: When the weather is hot, water becomes turbid; when cold, it remains clear. This is because the substance of water is clear, while the substance of fire is turbid. Furthermore, when clear water turns into hot soup, it naturally becomes turbid.
The commentary states: Qi belongs to Yang, and Yang represents heat; thus, excessive Qi results in this state.
The commentary states: The lesion is superficial and large. The Classic states: When heat overcomes blood, it forms carbuncles and pus.
The commentary states: The lesion is deep and loathsome.
The commentary states: A small boil with a head.
The commentary states: Superficial and small urticaria (Yin Zhen).
The commentary states: Red tumors (Dan Du/erysipelas) indicate heat overcoming Qi, reflecting the color of fire.
The commentary states: When fire-heat is extremely severe, it condenses and hardens like a pit in fruit. It does not necessarily need to suppurate; once the heat dissipates, it resolves spontaneously.
The commentary states: The San Jiao (Triple Burner) is the pathway for the transmission and transformation of food and fluids. When heat is excessive, transmission and transformation fail, resulting in vomiting, diarrhea, and Huoluan, due to the drying and agitating nature of fire. The general principle states: Vomiting and diarrhea with irritability and thirst indicate heat; absence of thirst indicates cold. In cases of heat-induced vomiting and diarrhea, there may initially be no thirst, but if it persists, fluid loss will inevitably lead to thirst. Conversely, cold syndromes typically present without thirst, but if prolonged, excessive loss of body fluids can cause dryness and thirst. For cold syndromes, the pulse should be deep, fine, and slow; for heat syndromes, the pulse should be full, large, and rapid. However, if Qi damage and fluid loss are extreme, the pulse may lose its fullness and rapidity, becoming instead slow and weak. Even so, it is no longer considered a heat syndrome.
