《黄帝内经》说:脉受风邪则形成疠风。又说:风邪与太阳经之气同时侵入,运行于各经脉的俞穴,散布在分肉之间。卫气与邪气相搏结,导致经络通道不畅,因此使肌肉肿胀并发生疮疡。卫气有所凝滞而不能正常运行,所以肌肉出现麻木不仁的症状。所谓疠风,是由于营卫热郁,其气不能消散,从而导致鼻梁塌陷、面色败坏、皮肤溃疡溃烂。风寒之邪客居在脉中不去,这种病称为疠风,或者称为寒热病。大风病,表现为骨节沉重、眉毛鬓发脱落,称为大风。治疗时先刺肌肉部位,令汗出,持续一百天;再刺骨髓部位,令汗出,又持续一百天。总共二百天后,鬓毛眉毛重新生长,即可停止针刺。
戊寅年正月,段库使患上大风病。满面及颈部极度瘙痒,眉毛已经脱落。用热水浇淋患处则症状稍缓,昼夜多次浇淋。有时用砭石刺破皮肤也能缓解。我的先师说:脉风就是疠风。营卫热郁,其气不清,所以导致鼻梁塌陷、皮肤色泽败坏。大风是风寒客居在脉中不去所致,治疗应当刺其肿胀之处,用锐针针刺该处,按压排出恶气,直到肿胀消退为止。饮食方面要常吃固定的食物,不要吃其他杂食。适宜用补气泻荣汤来治疗。此药能破血散热、升阳止痒。通过泻营分热邪,用辛温药物发散,甘温药物升提,以通行阳明经的气血,泻心火,补肺气,这是正治的方法。

The *Huangdi Neijing* (Yellow Emperor's Inner Canon) states: "When the pulse is affected by wind, leprosy (Lifeng, a severe skin disease characterized by numbness and deformity) forms." It also says: "Wind pathogen enters together with the Taiyang (Greater Yang) channel, travels through the Shu (Transport) points of various meridians, and scatters between the muscle layers. When Wei Qi (Defensive Qi) clashes with the pathogen, its pathway becomes obstructed. Consequently, the flesh swells and sores develop. If Wei Qi coagulates and fails to circulate, the muscles become insensible (numb)."
Regarding leprosy, it is caused by heat accumulation in Ying (Nutritive) and Wei (Defensive) Qi, which fails to dissipate. This leads to the collapse of the nasal bridge, deterioration of facial complexion, and ulceration of the skin. When cold and wind pathogens lodge in the vessels and do not depart, the condition is named leprosy, or alternatively, "cold-heat disorder." In cases of "Great Wind" (a severe form), there is heaviness in the bone joints, and loss of eyebrows and hair at the temples. This is called Great Wind. Treatment involves needling the muscles until sweating occurs for one hundred days; then needling into the bone marrow until sweating occurs for another hundred days. After a total of two hundred days, when the eyebrows and temple hair regrow, needling should cease.
In the first month of the Wuyin year, Duan Kusshi suffered from Great Wind. His face and neck were extremely itchy, and his eyebrows had already fallen out. Pouring hot water over the area provided slight relief, which he did several times day and night. Using Bian stones (stone needles) for pricking also brought some relief. My late master said: "Pulse wind is leprosy. Heat accumulation in Ying and Wei Qi causes turbid Qi, leading to nasal collapse and skin deterioration. Great Wind is caused by cold and wind lodging in the vessels. Treatment should involve needling the swollen areas with a sharp needle, pressing to expel evil Qi until the swelling subsides. One should eat only regular meals and avoid other foods. The appropriate prescription is Bqi Xierong Tang (Tonifying Qi and Draining Ying Decoction). This formula breaks blood stasis, clears heat, raises Yang, and relieves itching. It drains Ying heat using acrid-warm dispersants and sweet-warm elevators to unblock the Yangming channel, drains Heart Fire, and tonifies Lung Qi. This is the correct therapeutic approach."

Shengma (Rhizoma Cimicifugae), Lianqiao (Fructus Forsythiae) [6 fen each]; Jiegeng (Radix Platycodonis) [5 fen]; Huangqin (Radix Scutellariae) [4 fen]; Shengdihuang (Radix Rehmanniae Preparata) [4 fen]; Sumu (Santalum Rubrum); Huanglian (Rhizoma Coptidis); Huangbai (Cortex Phellodendri); Quanxie (Scorpio) [3 fen each]; Renshen (Radix Ginseng); Baidoukou (Fructus Amomi Rotundus) [2 fen each]; Gancao (Radix Glycyrrhizae) [1.5 fen]; Dilong (Pheretima) [3 fen]; Taoren (Semen Persicae) [3 seeds]; Mengchong (Nephentes/Mosquito Larvae? Note: Traditional text implies insect larvae used for breaking stasis, often interpreted as specific local insects or earthworms in some contexts, but literally 'mosquito worm' - here kept as Mengchong) [3 seeds, legs and wings removed]; Hutonglei (Resina Tamaricis) [1 fen, powdered]; Shexiang (Moschus) [a small amount, powdered]; Danggui (Radix Angelicae Sinensis) [3 fen]; Shuizhi (Hirudo) [3 seeds, stir-fried until smoke ceases].
These nineteen ingredients are processed as follows: Except for Lianqiao which is separately cut, Hutonglei is powdered, and Baidoukou is ground into powder. Shexiang, Mengchong, and Shuizhi are also ground into powder. All other herbs are combined as one dose. Add two cups of water and one cup of wine. Simmer together with Lianqiao until one cup remains. Strain the dregs. Re-add the powders of Hutonglei and Baidoukou, along with Shexiang and others. Simmer again over fire until 0.7 cups remain. Take warm. Administer after breakfast and before lunch. Avoid alcohol, wheat products, raw/cold, and hard foods.
