Medical Case: A wealthy boy had a yellowish complexion, ate voraciously, felt hungry easily, refused food unless it was meat, and suffered from diarrhea for one month. His pulse was large. It was initially considered damp-heat causing spleen dysfunction and poor appetite. However, he appeared robust despite eating much and not feeling thirsty, indicating gan worms. Examination of stool confirmed the presence of worms. After deworming treatment, he recovered. Early next summer, he suffered diarrhea again, without pain but with dry mouth.
