宋·刘明帝宫人腰痛牵心，发则气绝。徐文伯诊之曰∶发症也。以油灌之，吐物如发，
引之长三尺，头已成蛇，能动摇。悬之滴尽，唯一发耳。（南史）
人睛忽垂至鼻，如黑角塞，痛不可忍。或时时大便血出痛苦，名曰∶肝胀。用羌活煎汁
服数盏，自愈。（夏子益奇疾方）
秋冬持胡荽子，醋煮熨之，甚效。（胡荽即原荽也） （孟诜食疗本草）
不断，断之复生，行坐不得，鹤虱末水调半两服，自愈。（鹤虱，似是狐狸臊子。忌酒
肉） （怪疾奇方）
有根如线五寸余，如钗股吐之，乃能食物，捻之则痛彻心。麝香一钱，研水服之，三日
自消。（夏子益奇疾方）
宋元 中有人食鸭成症瘕，医以秫米研粉调水服之。须臾烦躁，吐出一鸭雏而瘥
按《千金方》治食鸭肉成病，胸满亦不能食。以秫米汤下盏饮之（秫，乃粟之粘者，今
所谓糯粟也）。
平时嗜酒，血入于酒则为酒鳖；平时多气血，凝于气则为气鳖；虚劳、锢冷、败血杂
痰，则为血鳖；摇头掉尾如虫行之，上侵人咽，下蚀人肛，或附胁背，或隐胸腹，大则如鳖，
小或如钱。治法惟用芜荑炒，煎服之。兼用暖胃、益血、理中之类，乃可杀之。若徒事雷丸、
锡灰之类，无益也。（仁斋直指方）
南朝宋时期，刘明帝的一位宫女腰部疼痛牵连心脏，发作时气息断绝。徐文伯诊断说：这是发瘕（一种由毛发积聚形成的病证）。用油灌服后，吐出像头发一样的物体，拉出来长达三尺，头部已经形成蛇的形状，能够摇动。悬挂起来滴干液体，只剩下一根头发而已。（出自《南史》）
人的眼睛突然下垂至鼻尖，像黑色的角堵塞住，疼痛难以忍受。有时大便出血且痛苦不堪，这种病名叫肝胀。用羌活煎煮汁液服用几杯，即可自愈。（出自夏子益《奇疾方》）
在秋冬季节，取胡荽子（香菜籽），用醋煮热后熨烫患处，效果显著。（胡荽即现在的香菜）（出自孟诜《食疗本草》）
（某种寄生虫或异物）不断生长，切断后又重新长出，导致行走坐卧困难。将鹤虱粉末半两用水调服，即可自愈。（鹤虱，似乎是狐狸的臊味物质。忌食酒肉）（出自《怪疾奇方》）
（体内有）根部像线一样长五寸多，像钗股一样突出，呕吐后才能进食，捻压它则疼痛彻心。用麝香一钱，研成粉末用水送服，三天后自行消散。（出自夏子益《奇疾方》）
宋朝元年间，有人因吃鸭子形成了瘕聚（腹内结块），医生用秫米（高粱米）研粉调水服用。不久患者感到烦躁，吐出一只小鸭雏而痊愈。据《千金方》记载，治疗因食用鸭肉导致的疾病，胸闷且不能进食的情况，用秫米汤一杯送服即可（秫，是粟米中粘性的一种，现在所谓的糯粟）。
平时嗜好饮酒，血液混入酒中则形成酒鳖；平时气血旺盛，凝滞于气分则形成气鳖；虚劳、寒邪固结、败血夹杂痰浊，则形成血鳖；（这些病邪）摇头摆尾像虫子爬行，向上侵犯咽喉，向下侵蚀肛门，或者附着在胁背，或者隐藏在胸腹，大的像鳖，小的可能像铜钱。治疗方法只有用芜荑炒过后煎服。同时配合使用暖胃、补血、调理中焦的方法，才能杀灭病邪。如果仅仅使用雷丸、锡灰之类的药物，是没有效果的。（出自杨士瀛《仁斋直指方》）
眼睛无法闭合（失眠），呼唤也不应答，但能进食。用大蒜三两捣碎取汁，调酒饮用即可痊愈。（出自夏子益《奇疾方》）
During the Liu Song dynasty, a palace maid of Emperor Ming suffered from lower back pain radiating to the heart, with episodes causing breathlessness. Xu Wenbo diagnosed it as Fa Jia (a pathological condition caused by the accumulation of hair). After administering oil orally, she vomited an object resembling hair, which measured three chi in length when pulled out; its head had formed into a snake-like shape and was capable of moving. When suspended until all fluid dripped off, only a single hair remained. (From *History of the Southern Dynasties*)
The patient's eyes suddenly drooped down to the tip of the nose, obstructed like black horns, accompanied by unbearable pain. Occasionally, blood would appear in the stool with severe suffering. This condition is named Gan Zhang (Liver Distension). It can be cured spontaneously by drinking several cups of decoction made from Qiang Huo (Notopterygii Rhizoma et Radix). (From Xia Ziyi's *Strange Disease Formulas*)
In autumn and winter, take Hu Sui Zi (Coriandri Fructus) and boil them in vinegar for hot compress application; this is highly effective. (Hu Sui refers to Coriandrum sativum L., commonly known as coriander/cilantro.) (From Meng Shen's *Dietary Therapy of Bencao*)
(If a parasitic growth or foreign body) does not stop growing, and regrows after being cut off, making walking and sitting difficult. Take He Shi (Carthami Fructus, though historically debated as fox musk residue) powder, half liang, mixed with water and ingested; this leads to self-healing. (Avoid alcohol and meat.) (From *Strange Disease Formulas*)
There is a root-like structure extending over five cun, resembling a hairpin shaft. The patient can only eat after vomiting it up; pinching it causes excruciating pain piercing the heart. Administer She Xiang (Moschus) one qian, ground into powder and taken with water; it will dissipate on its own within three days. (From Xia Ziyi's *Strange Disease Formulas*)
In the Yuan period of the Song dynasty, a person developed Xia Jia (abdominal mass) due to eating duck. The physician treated them with Shu Mi (Sorghum vulgare var. glutinosum) powder mixed with water. Shortly after, the patient became restless and vomited out a duckling, leading to recovery. According to *Qianjin Fang*, for diseases caused by consuming duck meat, characterized by chest fullness and inability to eat, drinking one cup of Shu Mi soup is effective. (Shu Mi refers to the sticky variety of millet, now known as glutinous sorghum/millet).
Those who habitually indulge in alcohol may develop Jiu Bie (Alcohol Tortoise), where blood mixes with wine; those with abundant Qi and Blood may develop Qi Bie if stagnation occurs in the Qi level; those with deficiency-wasting, entrenched cold, stagnant blood, and phlegm may develop Xue Bie (Blood Tortoise). These pathogens move their heads and tails like insects, invading the throat upwards, eroding the anus downwards, attaching to the flanks and back, or hiding in the chest and abdomen. They range in size from that of a tortoise to a coin. The treatment method involves frying Wu Yi (Chaulmoograe Semen) and taking it in decoction. Additionally, methods to warm the stomach, nourish blood, and regulate the Middle Jiao should be combined to eliminate the pathogen. Merely using drugs like Lei Wan (Omphalia lapidescens) or Xi Hui (Tin Ash) is of no benefit. (From Yang Shiya's *Renzhai Zhizhi Fang*)
The patient cannot close their eyes (insomnia), does not respond to calls, but retains the ability to eat. Crush three liang of Suan (Allium sativum), extract the juice, mix with wine, and drink; this leads to recovery. (From Xia Ziyi's *Strange Disease Formulas*)
