小儿发痧,有阴证和阳证之分。阴痧表现为腹痛且手足冰冷;阳痧表现为腹痛且手足温暖。
有的症状看似寒证而非寒证,看似热证而非热证,四肢倦怠无力,不想饮食,面色凄惨痛苦,病症表现不一,俗称为痧病。
其实并非真正的痧病,多由感冒风寒以及玩水受湿所致。治疗的方法,宜用热水浸湿布巾搭在手臂上,用苎麻频繁地刮拭皮肤。
等到皮肤出现红色痧点为止。病情严重的,适宜用针刺十指手背,靠近指甲边缘约一分处。可以先将孩子的手臂从肘部向手部捋顺,使血液聚集到指尖,这样气血就能通畅了。

Pediatric Sha Syndrome presents in Yin and Yang types. Yin Sha manifests as abdominal pain with cold hands and feet; Yang Sha manifests as abdominal pain with warm hands and feet.
Some symptoms resemble cold but are not true cold, or resemble heat but are not true heat, accompanied by limb fatigue, loss of appetite, and a miserable facial expression. The manifestations vary, commonly referred to in folklore as Sha disease.
However, it is not true Sha disease; it is mostly caused by contracting wind-cold from exposure and dampness from playing in water. The treatment method involves applying hot water-soaked cloths to the arms and frequently scraping the skin with ramie fiber (Zhumá).
Scraping should continue until red petechiae appear on the skin. In severe cases, pricking the dorsal aspect of the ten fingers near the nail beds (approximately one fen) is appropriate. One may first stroke the child's arm from the elbow towards the hand to gather blood at the fingertips, thereby restoring the smooth flow of Qi and Blood.
Regarding Pediatric Intestinal Twisting Sha (severe pain in the heart, abdomen, and waist), use Huolong Dan (Fire Dragon Pill).
Ingredients: Xionghuang (Realgar), Yanxiao (Saltpeter/Niter) (each 2 qian).
Grind together into a fine powder. For each application, use a hairpin to pick up a small amount of powder and apply it to the inner canthus of the eye. For males, apply to the left eye; for females, to the right eye. Recovery is immediate.
Shenxian Wanli Wan (Immortal Ten Thousand Pill Pill)
Ingredients: Zhusha (Cinnabar), Badou (Croton Seed, husked), Hanshi Mian (Cold Food Flour).

Another version lacks Hunyuan Yi (Gold Leaf Coating) and Meihua (Plum Blossom).

Ingredients: Xionghuang (Realgar, 2.5 qian), Yujin (Curcumae Longae Radix, 2.5 qian), Badou (Croton Seed, 24 kernels, oil removed).
Grind into powder. Bind with vinegar paste into pills the size of mung beans. Take seven pills per dose, swallowed with hot clear tea.
For sudden wind-stroke with collapse, locked jaw, opisthotonos, and unconsciousness, swallow with clear tea.
For pediatric acute wind-stroke with phlegm-heat, add Bovis Calculus (0.5 fen) and Borax (1 qian), bind with water paste, and administer with Mint Decoction.
For strangling throat wind (acute laryngeal obstruction), take seven pills, dissolve them, and administer mixed with white plum blossom using hot water, or with hot tea. Awakening occurs immediately. This utilizes the principle that heat promotes circulation. If death occurs suddenly from strangling throat wind but the heart remains warm,灌服 (force-feed) this medicine to restore consciousness.

If initially unrecognized as Ding Chuang and no sweating was induced, and after several days it is realized that chills, fever, and body pain have ceased, indicating toxins have entered the interior, purgatives must be used to drain internal toxins. This pill treats such cases.
For scrofula/ulcers, add Seven Blister Beetles (Banmao), wings and feet removed, stir-fried with glutinous rice. Administer with cold tea. It clears all heat-toxin congestion, resolves accumulations, aids digestion, and clears heat. Administer with tea.
