一个六岁的女孩。刚出现寒热症状一天，腰脊中间的命门穴处骨节就肿起一块，像一个大馒头，高三四寸。从此以后不能挺直身体站立，完全无法下地行走。这种情况已经持续了半年，人们都认为是龟背这种顽固疾病，认为无法治愈。于是用治疗小儿龟背的古方进行治疗，也没有效果。孙东宿说：这不是龟背。因为龟背的位置在上部，而现在的病灶在下部。这一定是早年乳母让她过早坐在地上造成的过错。那时她的筋骨尚未坚固，久坐导致背部弯曲，又因感受风邪，不知不觉病邪侵入骨节之间产生痰涎，致使骨节胀满变大。如果不及时治疗，必然成为顽固疾病。现在发病时间不长，可以用万灵黑虎比天膏贴敷。外用晚蚕沙醋炒后用绢布包裹，在药膏上进行热敷熨烫。一夜熨烫一次。再以威灵仙为主药，配合五加皮、乌药、红花、防风、独活煎服。一个月后肿块消退了一半，骨节变得柔软，不再肿胀坚硬，下地行走恢复如初。人们都认为这是神奇的效果。后来过了三个月，突然不能行走。询问原因，是足膝酸软，支撑不起身体，所以不能行走。我知道这是病邪已去但下元（肾气/元气）虚弱所致。使用杜仲、晚蚕沙、五加皮、苡仁、当归、牛膝、独活、苍耳子、人参、仙茅，水煎服用。服用二十剂后，行动恢复正常。
一个婴儿起初皮肤像鱼泡一样，又像水晶一样透明，弄破后会流出水来。用密陀僧研磨成极细的粉末，撒在患处。
一个七岁的男孩，听到雷声就会昏倒，不省人事。用人参、当归、麦冬，少量加入五味子熬制成膏。服完一斤后，再听到雷声也神色自若了。
建炎戊申年（1128年），镇江府一户百姓家生了个四岁的孩子，突然患上腹胀病，经过四个月，肚脐裂开，有一个婴儿从裂缝中生出。有眉毛、眼睛、嘴巴、鼻子，是人形。只是头部以下，手足不分，无法辨别男女。又流出一斗多白色的汁液。三天后，两个“孩子”都死了。
有个船夫生下的孩子，全身完全没有皮肤，人们都不明白怎么回事。正好吴门的葛可久路过，众人告知此事。葛可久让人在岸边挖一个坑，把孩子放在里面，用细土隔着被子覆盖住他，告诫不要移动。过了很久打开被子查看，孩子已经长出皮肤了。大概是因为他的母亲在船上怀孕，长时间不上岸，失去了接触土气的缘故。
周恭说：有孕妇怀孕期间一直住在楼房上不落地面的，生下的孩子都是赤肉无皮。也用这种方法。参考危氏《得效方》，适宜用白早米粉干燥扑洒，等到长出皮肤才停止。
A six-year-old girl. After experiencing chills and fever for only one day, a bony joint in the middle of her lower back and spine, specifically at the Mingmen (Gate of Life) acupoint, swelled into a lump the size of a large steamed bun, standing three or four cun high. From then on, she could not stand upright and was completely unable to walk on the ground. This condition had persisted for half a year. People considered it an incurable deformity known as "turtle back" (kyphosis). Ancient prescriptions for pediatric turtle back were used but proved ineffective. Sun Dongsu said: This is not turtle back. Turtle back typically occurs in the upper back, whereas this lesion is in the lower part. It must be due to the wet nurse placing her on the ground to sit too early in infancy. At that time, her bones and tendons were not yet firm; prolonged sitting caused her back to curve, and upon contracting wind-pathogens, the pathogen gradually infiltrated the joints, generating phlegm-fluids, which led to swelling and enlargement of the joints. If not treated promptly, it would inevitably become a chronic, stubborn disease. Since the onset is recent, one can apply Wanling Heihu Bitian Gao (Ten Thousand Spirits Black Tiger Sky-Comparing Ointment). Externally, stir-fry mulberry silkworm excrement (Canis Bombyx Batryticatus) with vinegar, wrap it in silk, and apply hot compresses over the ointment. Perform this hot compress once per night. Internally, decoct Weilingxian (Clematis Root) as the sovereign herb, combined with Wujia Pi (Acanthopanacis Cortex), Wuyao (Lindera Root), Honghua (Carthami Flos), Fangfeng (Saposhnikoviae Radix), and Duhuo (Angelicae Pubescentis Radix). After one month, the swelling reduced by half, the joints became soft, no longer swollen or hard, and she could walk on the ground as before. People regarded this as miraculous. Three months later, she suddenly lost the ability to walk. Upon inquiry, her feet and knees were sore and weak, unable to support her body weight, hence the inability to walk. I deduced that while the pathogenic factor had receded, her Lower Yuan (Kidney Qi/Essence) was deficient. I prescribed Duzhong (Eucommiae Cortex), Can Sha (Mulberry Silkworm Excrement), Wujia Pi, Yiren (Coicis Semen), Danggui (Angelicae Sinensis Radix), Niuxi (Achyranthis Bidentatae Radix), Duhuo, Cangerzi (Xanthii Fructus), Renshen (Ginseng Radix et Rhizoma), and Xianmao (Curculiginis Rhizoma), decocted in water. After taking twenty doses, her mobility returned to normal.
An infant initially presented with skin blisters resembling fish bubbles or transparent crystal; when ruptured, they discharged fluid. Medalone (Galena, Luo Bo Ji Xi) was pulverized into an extremely fine powder and dusted onto the lesions.
A seven-year-old boy would faint and lose consciousness upon hearing thunder. Ginseng (Renshen), Angelica sinensis (Danggui), Ophiopogon (Maidong), and a small amount of Schisandra (Wuweizi) were decocted into a paste. After consuming one jin (approx. 500g) of the paste, he remained calm even upon hearing thunder.
In the year Wushen of the Jianyan era (1128 CE), a four-year-old child born to a commoner family in Zhenjiang Prefecture suddenly developed abdominal distension. After four months, his umbilicus split open, and an infant emerged from the fissure. It possessed eyebrows, eyes, mouth, and nose, appearing human in form. However, below the head, the limbs were indistinguishable, and gender could not be determined. Additionally, more than one dou (approx. 10 liters) of white fluid was discharged. Three days later, both entities died.
A boatman gave birth to a child who had no skin whatsoever, a phenomenon unknown to people. Ge Kejiu from Wu men happened to pass by. Upon being informed, he instructed them to dig a pit by the shore, place the child inside, cover him with a quilt separated by fine soil, and warned against moving him. After a long period, when the quilt was lifted, the child had grown skin. This was likely because his mother had been pregnant on the boat for a long time without going ashore, thus failing to receive the qi of the earth.
Zhou Gong stated: There are cases where pregnant women live in multi-story buildings and do not touch the ground during pregnancy; their children are born as raw flesh without skin. The same method is applied. Referencing Wei Shi's *Defang* (Formulas for Efficacy), it is appropriate to use dry rice flour (Baizaomi) to dust the area, stopping only after the skin has regenerated.
