论曰小儿无故吐下青黄赤白色,水谷解离。腹痛夭矫反倒,面变五色,其状似痫。但眼
不上戴者,名曰客忤。此由小儿血气未充,精神未定,忽见非常之物。或见未识之人,或为
异类触犯,暴然发作,故名客忤。诊其脉弦急数者,忤也。若乳母醉后,及房劳喘困气乏
,即便乳儿,最为切忌,剧则不可救矣。

论述说:小儿无故出现呕吐和下利,排泄物呈青、黄、赤、白各色,水谷分离。腹部疼痛,身体扭曲反折,面色变幻五色,症状类似癫痫。但如果眼球不上翻(吊眼),这种病称为“客忤”。这是由于小儿气血尚未充盈,精神尚未安定,突然见到不寻常的事物,或者见到不认识的人,或被异类触犯,突然发作,所以称为客忤。诊察其脉象弦急数的,就是客忤。如果乳母醉酒后,以及房事后气喘困乏、气力不足时,立即给婴儿哺乳,这是最忌讳的,病情严重的话就无法救治了。

Discussion states: Infants may experience vomiting and diarrhea without apparent cause, with excrement appearing in green, yellow, red, or white colors, where water and grain separate. They suffer from abdominal pain, body twisting and turning, and facial complexion changing among five colors, resembling epilepsy (epilepsy). However, if the eyes do not roll upward (upward deviation of eyes), this condition is named "Ke Wu" (Guest Intoxication/Startle). This occurs because an infant's blood and qi are not yet full, and their spirit is not yet settled; suddenly seeing unusual objects, unfamiliar people, or being offended by strange entities causes a sudden onset, hence the name "Ke Wu". Palpating the pulse as wiry, rapid, and frequent indicates "Wu" (Intoxication/Startle). It is strictly forbidden for a wet nurse to breastfeed immediately after intoxication or after sexual intercourse when she is panting, exhausted, and lacking qi; if the condition becomes severe, it cannot be saved.
