〔此症〕人多治木、治金固是，而不知胃土之为尤切。当治胃土，且有经、脉之分。
《经》云∶“足阳明之经，急则口目为僻 ，急不能视”，此胃土之经为歪斜也。又云∶
“足阳明之脉，挟口环唇，口歪唇斜”，此胃土之脉为 斜也。

此方治之（水煎服），二剂痊愈。
外感病与内伤虚损病症表现大体相似，但治疗方法实际上不同。虚损病，是阴阳两虚；劳症（因过度劳累导致的虚损性疾病），是阴虚而阳气亢盛。因此，虚损病可以用……（原文此处有缺漏或衍文）来治疗。
辨别这两种病症的方法：不必依赖脉诊，只需观察患者穿衣的多少。如果患者穿着单衣（觉得冷），这是劳症。（原文此处有衍文“人着单衣”重复）。
凡是有人跌倒昏迷，或者自己躺着却跌落在床下的，这都是因为气虚导致痰邪侵袭所致。适宜使用的方剂是：人参（一两）、半夏（三钱）、天南星（三钱）、生附子（一个），用水煎服。这个方子名叫“三生饮”，要紧急灌服。
这种病症也有因肾虚而引发的。肾主藏精，主管下焦生殖系统的功能，冲脉和任脉都与肾相连。由于肾虚，导致肾络与胞宫内部隔绝，不通达于上则声音嘶哑或失语（喑），肾脉不上行经过喉咙、挟持舌根则不能说话。两条络脉不通达于下，则会导致肢体废用或厥逆（痱厥）。适宜使用的方子是“地黄引子”：熟地黄（一两）、巴戟天（一两）、山茱萸（一两）、附子（五钱）、石斛（六钱）、肉苁蓉（一两）……（原文此处有缺漏或衍文“薄”）。
[针对口眼歪斜症]人们多采用治肝（木）、治肺（金）的方法，固然是对的，却不知道调理脾胃（胃土）更为迫切。应当治疗胃土，并且要区分经脉的不同。《黄帝内经》说：“足阳明经发生病变，急迫时会导致口眼歪斜，眼睛急迫不能视物”，这是胃土的经络发生歪斜。又说：“足阳明脉，挟持口角环绕嘴唇，出现口歪唇斜”，这是胃土的脉道发生歪斜。
这两种情况的治法，都应当使用以下方药：黄芪、当归、人参、白芍、甘草、桂枝、升麻、葛根、秦艽、白芷、黄柏、防风、苏木、红花，用水和酒各半樽煎服（原文此处有衍文“水酒各半樽（衍）煎服（衍）”），稍微热服。
初起伴有外感症状的，加葱白三茎同煎，取微汗即可自愈。
另一个治疗方子：
[针对口眼歪斜症又有]心中极度虚弱委屈（极），导致口耳之间无法灵活运化，轻则口眼歪斜，重则失语。适宜使用的方子是：人参（三钱）、白术（五钱）、茯苓（三钱）、半夏（二钱）、陈皮（二钱）、石菖蒲（一钱）……（原文此处有缺漏）。
此方用水煎服，服用两剂即可痊愈。
Exogenous diseases (diseases caused by external pathogenic factors) and internal injury deficiency syndromes present with similar symptoms, yet their treatment methods are fundamentally different. Deficiency syndrome (Xu Sun) involves a dual deficiency of Yin and Yang; whereas Lao syndrome (a deficiency condition caused by overexertion) is characterized by Yin deficiency with hyperactive Yang. Therefore, for deficiency syndrome, one may use... [text missing or erroneous].
The method to distinguish these two conditions: pulse diagnosis is not necessary; simply observe the patient's clothing. If the patient wears thin clothes (indicating cold intolerance), it is Lao syndrome. [Text repetition: "person wearing thin clothes"].
Whenever a person falls into unconsciousness after a fall, or falls out of bed while lying down, this is all due to Qi deficiency allowing Phlegm-evil to invade. The appropriate prescription is: Ren Shen (Ginseng Radix et Rhizoma, 1 liang), Ban Xia (Pinelliae Tuber, 3 qian), Nan Xing (Arisaematis Rhizoma, 3 qian), Sheng Fu Zi (Aconiti Lateralis Radix Preparata, raw, 1 piece). Decoct in water and administer orally. This formula is named "San Sheng Yin" (Three Life Decoction); administer urgently.
This condition may also arise from Kidney deficiency. The Kidney stores Essence and governs reproduction in the Lower Jiao; the Chong Mai (Penetrating Vessel) and Ren Mai (Conception Vessel) are connected to the Kidney. Due to Kidney deficiency, the Kidney collaterals become severed from the interior of the Bao Gong (Uterus/Womb), failing to connect upwards. If they do not connect upwards, aphonia (Yin) occurs; if the Kidney meridian does not ascend along the throat and surround the root of the tongue, speech becomes impossible. If the two collaterals fail to connect downwards, fei jue (limb flaccidity and厥逆) ensues. The appropriate prescription is "Di Huang Yin Zi": Shu Di Huang (Rehmanniae Radix Praeparata, 1 liang), Ba Ji Tian (Morindae Officinalis Radix, 1 liang), Shan Yu Rou (Corni Fructus, 1 liang), Fu Zi (Aconiti Lateralis Radix Preparata, 5 qian), Shi Hu (Dendrobii Caulis, 6 qian), Rou Cong Rong (Cistanches Herba, 1 liang)... [text missing or erroneous "Bo"].
[Regarding facial paralysis]: People often treat using Liver (Wood) and Lung (Metal) methods, which is correct, but they fail to realize that regulating Spleen/Stomach Earth (Wei Tu) is even more critical. One should treat the Stomach Earth, distinguishing between Jing (Meridians) and Mai (Vessels). The *Jing* (Classic) states: "When the Foot-Yangming Meridian is affected, urgency causes deviation of the mouth and eyes, and urgency prevents vision." This indicates deviation of the Stomach Earth meridian. It also states: "The Foot-Yangming Vessel surrounds the lips and cheeks, causing deviation of the mouth and slanting of the lips." This indicates deviation of the Stomach Earth vessel.
For both conditions, the following herbs should be used: Huang Qi (Astragali Radix), Dang Gui (Angelicae Sinensis Radix), Ren Shen (Ginseng Radix et Rhizoma), Bai Shao (Paeoniae Radix Alba), Gan Cao (Glycyrrhizae Radix et Rhizoma), Gui Zhi (Cinnamomi Ramulus), Sheng Ma (Cimicifugae Rhizoma), Ge Gen (Puerariae Lobatae Radix), Qin Jiao (Gentianae Macrophyllae Radix), Bai Zhi (Angelicae Dahuricae Radix), Huang Bo (Phellodendri Cortex), Fang Feng (Saposhnikoviae Radix), Su Mu (Sappan Lignum), Hong Hua (Carthami Flos). Decoct in half water and half wine. Administer slightly warm. [Text repetition: "Decoct in half water and half wine"].
If there are exogenous symptoms at the onset, add three stalks of Cong Bai (Scallion White) to decoct together; induce slight sweating for self-healing.
Another treatment formula:
[Regarding facial paralysis again]: When the Heart-Mind is extremely deficient and unable to coordinate movement between the mouth and ears, mild cases result in facial deviation, while severe cases result in aphasia. The appropriate prescription is: Ren Shen (Ginseng Radix et Rhizoma, 3 qian), Bai Zhu (Atractylodis Macrocephalae Rhizoma, 5 qian), Fu Ling (Poria, 3 qian), Ban Xia (Pinelliae Tuber, 2 qian), Chen Pi (Citri Reticulatae Pericarpium, 2 qian), Shi Chang Pu (Acori Tatarinowii Rhizoma, 1 qian)... [text missing].
Decoct this formula in water; two doses will result in recovery.
