Discussion on the treatment for stroke causing lockjaw (inability to open the mouth due to tight jaw). Acupuncture at Renzhong, Jiache, Zusanli, and Hegu is effective.
Discussion on sudden exposure to evil wind, causing mental restlessness, pain, and a desire to die. Stimulate the acupoint at the transverse crease under the big toe of both feet, applying moxibustion according to the patient's age (Sui Nian Zhuang), with immediate effect.
Discussion on treating stroke-induced lockjaw. Stimulate the "Ji Guan" pair of points, located 8 fen below the ear slightly forward, stopping at five moxa cones.
Discussion on wind pathogen affecting the collaterals leading to facial paralysis; affecting the Fu organs leading to limb disability; affecting the Zang organs leading to critical condition. For such treatments, it is best to first employ methods to release the exterior, regulate Qi, harmonize blood, and treat phlegm, before supporting recovery. To achieve complete cure, moxibustion is the best method.
Discussion on wind pathogen affecting the collaterals, causing facial paralysis.
Stimulate Tinghui (two points, in the depression anterior to the ear, accessible by opening the mouth, where the arterial pulse is felt), Jiache (two points, in the depression below the ear, approximately two leek-leaf widths wide, accessible by opening the mouth), and Dicang (two points, four fen lateral to the corner of the mouth near the lower side, where a slight pulse is felt).
For rightward deviation of the mouth, it indicates left-sided collateral stroke with flaccidity. Moxibustion should be applied to the depression on the left side for fourteen cones. For leftward deviation, it indicates right-sided collateral stroke with flaccidity. Moxibustion should be applied to the depression on the right side for fourteen cones.
Discussion on wind pathogen affecting the Fu organs, presenting with symptoms such as hemiplegia.
Stimulate Baihui (one point, in the center of the vertex within the hair whorl), Jianyu (two points, in the depression between the two bones at the shoulder end, accessible by raising the arm), Quchi (two points, in the depression at the head of the transverse cubital crease on the lateral side of the elbow, accessible by arching the hands towards the chest), Fengshi (two points, in the depression at the midpoint of the middle finger when standing with arms hanging down, level with the lateral knee ribs), Zusanli (two points, in the depression between the large tendon and bone, three cun below the knee on the lateral aspect of the tibia), and Yangjiao/Juegu (two points, in the arterial pulse three cun above the lateral malleolus).
Whenever one feels itching or numbness/pain in the limbs that lasts for a long time, this is a precursor to Fu organ stroke. Moxibustion should be applied to these seven points. If the disease is on the left, moxa on the right; if on the right, moxa on the left.
Discussion on wind pathogen affecting the Zang organs, presenting with Qi obstruction, rising phlegm, aphasia, and coma. Fire moxibustion yields immediate results.
Stimulate Baihui (one point, in the center of the vertex within the hair whorl), Fengchi (one point, in the depression at the posterior hairline of the temporal region), Dazhui (two points, in the depression above the first thoracic vertebra in the nape), Jianjing (two points, in the depression on the shoulder, one and a half cun anterior to the supraclavicular fossa on the prominent bone, found by pressing with three fingers so the middle finger falls in the center), Quchi (two points, as above), Jianshi (two points, three cun proximal to the wrist crease between the two tendons), and Zusanli (two points, as above).
Whenever one feels mental confusion, lack of spirit, or limb numbness/paralysis, this is a precursor to Zang organ stroke. Regardless of whether it is wind-dampness or Qi stagnation, quickly moxa these seven points in sequence, five to seven cones per point, daily. Stop at the number of cones corresponding to the patient's age for optimal results. Those with a history of wind disorders must pay special attention. This moxibustion method ensures safety.
This method can also treat sudden death. When wind pathogen strikes violently, patients may suddenly fear pain and refuse moxibustion, leading to sudden death. What disease is this? It is wind entering the Zang organs.
Discussion on sudden aphonia. Quickly moxa four cun below the umbilicus, and the bony depression at the pubic hairline near the urethra, fourteen cones each. For severe cases, twenty-eight cones. Also moxa the tips of the middle fingers of the dominant hand and foot (left for men, right for women), three cones each, with divine efficacy.
Discussion on epilepsy, regardless of the five types. Moxa the meeting point of the middle fingers of both hands, with divine efficacy.
For full-blown seizures, moxa Shenmai (Yang Qiao Mai), located at the red-white flesh junction below the lateral malleolus. For night-onset seizures, moxa Zhaohai (Yin Qiao Mai), located at the red-white flesh junction below the medial malleolus, fourteen cones each.
For mania and insanity unresponsive to other treatments, tightly bind the thumbs of both hands and feet with a soft rope, then moxa three cones. The moxa should cover four areas, half on the flesh and half on the nail. Burning all four areas completely is effective. This method is divinely efficacious.
Discussion on the secret method for sleep paralysis (nightmare death).
Nightmare death occurs due to daily deficiency of Shen Qi, causing the Shen to not reside in its house during sleep. For nightmare death, have the deceased bite the heel/big toenail side of the living person, and they will revive.
Another method: blow powder from Gleditsia sinensis (Ya Zao) into the nose, which is also excellent. If one or two watches have passed, moxibustion can also be used.
Another method: moxa Dadun (seven cones) to awaken.
Discussion on women contracting this disease during menstruation, with intermittent attacks of limb convulsions resembling chicken claws and pain. Locate the small depressions on both sides of the kneecaps, four points in total, commonly called "Ghost Eyes." Moxa three cones each for cure.
For Yin toxicity abdominal pain with impending pulse disappearance: First, moxa three cones each at the tips of the middle fingers of the hand and foot (left for men, right for women). Then moxa Qihai (1.5 cun below the umbilicus) and Guanyuan (3 cun below the umbilicus), seven cones each, extremely effective.
Discussion on True Yin Syndrome: cold limbs, stabbing abdominal pain. Urgently administer Da Fu Zi (Aconiti Lateralis Radix Praeparata), Gan Jiang (Zingiberis Rhizoma), and Gui Zhi (Cinnamomi Ramulus). If the medicine feels like ice upon ingestion, it indicates extreme cold in the Middle Jiao.
