（即白虎历节风）
历节痛，或因饮食起居失节，或因七情六淫失宜，以致脾胃亏损，腠理不密，外邪所侵；或
为肝火内动，肝血耗损；或为肢体疼痛；或为肢节难伸；或为卒然制痛；或为走痛无常；或
内热晡热，自汗盗汗；或经候不调，饮食不甘。其治法，属风邪者，小续命汤。走注疼痛者
，漏芦散。骨节疼痛者，四生丸。湿热痛者，清燥汤，兼痰佐以二陈。肝火者，加味逍遥散
加羌活、川芎。脾郁者，加味归脾加羌活、川芎。血虚者，四物加羌活、川芎。气虚者，四君加羌活、
川芎。气血俱虚者
，八珍加羌活、川芎。月经先期而痛者，加味逍遥散为主。月经过期而痛者，补中益气为主
。大抵痛而不敢按者，属病气元气俱实也；手按而痛缓者，病气元气俱虚也。若劳役而作痛
者，元气虚也；饮食失宜而作痛者，脾胃虚也；怒恼而作痛者，肝火也；经行而作痛，血虚
也。凡此皆固元气为主，而佐以治病之药。

（即白虎历节风）
历节疼痛，可能是因为饮食起居没有节制，或者因为七情六淫失调，导致脾胃亏损，腠理不致密，外邪侵袭；或者由于肝火在内扰动，肝血耗损；或者表现为肢体疼痛；或者关节难以伸展；或者突然发生剧烈疼痛；或者疼痛游走不定；或者体内发热、傍晚潮热，自汗盗汗；或者月经不调，饮食无味。其治疗方法：属于风邪的，用小续命汤。疼痛走注移位的，用漏芦散。骨节疼痛的，用四生丸。湿热疼痛的，用清燥汤，兼有痰湿的辅以二陈汤。肝火旺盛的，用加味逍遥散加羌活、川芎。脾郁结的，用加味归脾汤加羌活、川芎。血虚的，用四物汤加羌活、川芎。气虚的，用四君子汤加羌活、川芎。气血俱虚的，用八珍汤加羌活、川芎。月经先期且疼痛的，以加味逍遥散为主。月经后期且疼痛的，以补中益气汤为主。大抵而言，疼痛而不敢按压的，属于病气和元气都实证；用手按压后疼痛缓解的，属于病气和元气都虚证。如果是劳累后发作疼痛的，是元气虚；饮食不当而发作疼痛的，是脾胃虚；发怒恼火而发作疼痛的，是肝火；经期发作疼痛的，是血虚。凡此种种，都以固护元气为主，并辅以治疗疾病的药物。
治验案例
一位妇人自汗盗汗，发热及傍晚潮热，身体疲倦，食欲减少，月经不调，吐痰很多，病程已有两年。遍身疼痛，遇到阴雨天气更加严重。使用小续命汤使疼痛停止，再用补中益气汤和加味归脾汤，服用三十多剂后痊愈。自汗等症状，都是因郁结损伤脾气，不能输养各脏腑所致。所以使用前两方，专门主治脾胃。如果使用寒凉药降火，理气化痰，反而会伤害生气机，大多会导致病情恶化无法救治。
一位妇人因发怒，月经量过多，发热口渴，左眼紧缩变小，头项动摇颤抖，四肢抽搐，遍身疼痛，这是发怒触动肝火，肝血虚而生内风，使用加味逍遥散加钩藤，服用数剂后，各种症状逐渐痊愈，又用八珍汤调理而康复。
一位妇人月经先期，素有疼痛病症，每次劳累必定发作，需要用众人用手重按，疼痛才稍止，这是气血虚而有火，使用十全大补汤加独活治疗而疼痛痊愈，再用六味丸、逍遥散使月经调顺。
一位妇人历节疼痛，发热口渴，饮食少思，月经后期，各种药物无效，脉象洪大，但重按微细，使用附子八物汤四剂后疼痛停止，再用加味逍遥散使元气恢复，六味丸使月经调顺。
一位妇人身体肥胖，素来体内有热，月经先期，患痛风，下半身轻微肿痛严重，小便频数，身体沉重脉缓，症属风湿，而血虚有热。先用羌活胜湿汤四剂，肿痛逐渐痊愈；用清燥汤数剂，小便逐渐清利；用加味逍遥散十余剂，内热逐渐痊愈。因饮食停滞，发热仍然疼痛，面目浮肿，用六君子汤加柴胡、升麻而痊愈。又因怒气，小腹痞闷，寒热呕吐，这是木气侮犯脾土。用前药加山栀、木香而安定。只有小腹下坠，似有大便急迫感，这是脾气下陷，用补中益气汤而痊愈。后来因劳累、怒气，作呕，吐痰，遍身肿痛，月经忽来伴寒热。用六君子汤加柴胡、山栀以扶助元气、清肝火，肿痛呕吐全部消退，用补中益气汤以提升阳气、健运营气，月经寒热全部治愈。
一位妇人饮食少思，畏惧风寒，患痛风，呕吐寒热，脉弦紧，使用附子八物汤，四肢疼痛痊愈，用独活寄生汤，腰痛也痊愈，只有两膝肿痛，用大防风汤而消除，用加味归脾汤、逍遥散使元气恢复。

Lijie pain (pain in the joints) may be caused by irregular diet and lifestyle, or by improper regulation of the Seven Emotions (Qing) and Six Exogenous Pathogens (Yin), leading to Spleen-Stomach deficiency, loose Cou Li (pores and interstitial spaces), and invasion of external pathogens; or due to internal stirring of Liver Fire and consumption of Liver Blood; or manifesting as limb pain; or difficulty in extending the joints; or sudden severe pain; or wandering pain without fixed location; or internal heat and afternoon tidal fever, spontaneous sweating and night sweats; or irregular menstruation and poor appetite. Its treatment methods are as follows: for those belonging to Wind pathogen, use Xiao Xuming Tang (Minor Continuation Life Decoction). For wandering and migrating pain, use Loulu San (Radix Euphorbiae Humifusae Powder). For bone and joint pain, use Sisheng Wan (Four Living Pill). For Damp-Heat pain, use Qingzao Tang (Clear Dryness Decoction); if accompanied by Phlegm, assist with Erchen Tang (Two Aged Substances Decoction).

All these cases prioritize consolidating Healthy Qi, assisted by herbs treating the disease.

Her whole body ached, worsening on cloudy and rainy days. Pain ceased after using Xiao Xuming Tang. She was cured after taking thirty-plus doses of Buzhong Yiqi Tang and Jiawei Guipi Tang. The symptoms of spontaneous sweating etc. were all caused by emotional constraint damaging Spleen Qi, preventing it from nourishing the Zang-Fu organs. Therefore, the aforementioned two formulas were used to specifically target the Spleen and Stomach. If cold and bitter herbs were used to clear fire, or herbs regulating Qi and resolving Phlegm were employed, they would further damage the generating Qi, often leading to untreatable conditions.
A woman, due to anger, experienced heavy menstruation, fever, thirst, contraction of the left eye, trembling of the head and neck, convulsions of the four limbs, and whole-body pain. This was anger stirring Liver Fire, with Liver Blood deficiency generating internal Wind. After several doses of Jiawei Xiaoyao San plus Gouteng (Uncariae Ramulus cum Uncis), her symptoms gradually improved. She recovered after conditioning with Bazhen Tang.
A woman had early menstruation and chronic pain that always occurred after labor, relieved slightly only by heavy pressing with multiple hands. This indicated Qi and Blood deficiency with Fire.

Her lower body was mildly swollen and painful, with frequent urination, heavy body, and slow pulse. The syndrome belonged to Wind-Dampness, with Blood deficiency and Heat. First, she took four doses of Qianghuo Shengshi Tang (Notopterygium Overcoming Dampness Decoction), and swelling and pain gradually subsided. After several doses of Qingzao Tang, urination became clear. After more than ten doses of Jiawei Xiaoyao San, internal heat gradually resolved. Due to food stagnation, fever and pain persisted, with facial edema. She was cured using Liujun Zi Tang (Six Gentlemen Decoction) plus Chaihu (Bupleuri Radix) and Shengma (Cimicifugae Rhizoma). Later, due to anger, she experienced abdominal distension, aversion to cold, fever, and vomiting, indicating Wood insulting Earth (Spleen). She stabilized using the previous prescription plus Zhizi (Gardeniae Fructus) and Muxiang (Aucklandiae Radix).

Later, due to overwork and anger, she experienced vomiting, expectoration, whole-body swelling and pain, and sudden onset of menstruation with chills and fever. She used Liujun Zi Tang plus Chaihu and Zhizi to support Healthy Qi and clear Liver Fire, eliminating swelling, pain, and vomiting. She then used Buzhong Yiqi Tang to raise Yang Qi and strengthen Ying Qi, curing the menstrual chills and fever.
A woman had poor appetite, fear of wind and cold, suffered from gouty arthritis, vomiting, chills and fever, with a wiry and tight pulse. Limb pain healed using Fuzi Bawu Tang.
