寒战，是指身体感觉寒冷，剧烈颤抖摇动的症状。切牙，是指上下牙齿相互摩擦并发出声音的症状。医经中说：各种风邪引起的震颤动摇，都归属于肝木。寒战且身体剧烈摇动，是风邪盛的表现，火气冲逆导致物体震动也是如此。钱乙说：肝主风，肝虚时会出现切牙并频繁打哈欠。又说：眼睛上窜伴切牙，是心热的表现。既然这样，那么寒战和切牙，主要由心和肝两脏引起。有人将寒战归为气虚，切牙归为血虚；或者认为切牙是因为牙齿枯槁，说是津液不足，这些都是没有理解上述医理。痘疮最忌讳出现寒战和切牙，如果单独出现其中一种症状，或者两种症状同时出现，若痘疮已经坏败，再加上气喘急促、烦闷神乱，则患者将在不久后死亡。凡是患痘疮的人，如果痘疮原本稠密，在翻身转动之间，身体发生振摇，这是因为全身被痘毒所困，正气不能支撑，转动艰难所致，不能简单地当作寒战，而误用热性药物。有的只出现切牙，这是心和肝两经火旺所致，因为肝虚会切牙，心热也会切牙，不要轻易断定为不治之症。
如果在痘疮刚发出时就出现寒战，这是邪气将要外透，与正气相争，所以身体振摇，这是火的征象，待痘疮发出后症状就会平息，主治方剂为柴葛桂枝汤。痘疮已经发出，或者已经成浆却出现寒战，这是表气虚弱，不能抵御旺盛的邪气，主治方剂为养卫化毒汤。如果痘疮原本稠密，发作时肿痛，经脉动摇，时时振动，这不能称为寒战，应等待脓成痛消后自然缓解。在结痂收靥的时候，痂皮圆净，只是偶尔出现战栗，这是正气即将恢复，但尚不能完全自主控制的征兆，不必担忧疑虑，片刻之后自然会安定。有的出现筋惕肉（肌肉跳动），这是因为经络中的血液被痘疮耗损，不能荣养肌肉、主持筋脉，所以手足不由自主地跳动，皮肤肌肉自动抽动，这不能称为寒战，只需调养气血，主治方剂为十全大补汤（适用于汗后）。薛己记载：一个十四岁的男孩，痘疮快要痊愈时，突然寒战，手足冰冷，脉象微细，寸口脉搏摸不到。这是脾气虚热。使用五味异功散、独参汤、十全大补汤而治愈。一位妇女，痘疮痊愈后出现寒战，脉象浮大，重按微细。这是气血虚弱，使用十全大补汤三十多剂而治愈。后来因劳累，出现寒热往来，冷时手足像水一样凉，热时手足像被火烤一样烫，脉象浮大，重按则细。这是阳气极度虚弱，早晨服用补中益气汤加桂枝、附子各一钱，晚上服用八味丸料加倍加入桂枝、附子，各服五十多剂而安宁。
柴葛桂枝汤
组成：柴胡、葛根、甘草、桂枝、防风、人参、白芍药（各等分）
制法：切碎。加生姜三片，水一盏，煎至七分，去渣，温服，不拘时间。
养卫化毒汤
组成：人参、黄芪（炙）、桂枝、甘草、当归
制法：水煎服。
初虞世说：怕冷困倦，或发寒战，能使痘疹收缩伏陷，适宜使用陈文中的异功散（方剂见“见形证治出不快”条）。娄氏说：曾治疗痘疮寒战，用白术、[缺字]、当归加黄芩治疗而愈。
〔袁氏〕独附汤 治疗寒战。
组成：大附子（五钱，用面粉包裹煨熟）
制法：用水一钟，灯草七根，煎服。
上方中加入人参二钱、肉桂五分、黄芪二钱、橘红一钱、甘草五分、当归一钱，就变成附子振阴汤，是治疗寒战切牙的特效方，但痘色紫黑焦枯者禁用。
切牙伴打哈欠，是肝虚的表现。肝属木，其官位在寅，寅时为相火，火盗取木之气，所以肝虚的症状显现出来。阳气牵引向上，阴气牵引向下，则张口打哈欠。阳上极而下，阴下极而上，则闭合咬齿。主治方剂为十全大补汤。如果在发热初期就出现切牙，这与瘙痒塌陷、呕吐腹泻、脾胃虚弱者不同，必须审察形证分别治疗。如果频繁打哈欠、切牙且突然闷乱，是肝藏风热，主治方剂为羌活汤（用于痘发热）。眼睛上窜伴切牙，是心脏热，主治方剂为导赤散（清心）。不可妄用陈氏辛热之剂。眼睛上窜伴切牙，是心热，所有疮疡都属于心火，眼睛上窜是火炎上的征象，切牙是火气动摇的征象，主治方剂为导赤散加酒炒黄连、牛蒡子。切牙兼见面赤口渴，夜间加重，宜用地黄丸。薛己记载：一个小孩痘疮切牙，面色黄，想喝汤。这是阳气虚弱。使用五味异功散加木香而治愈。后来仍然切牙，面赤口渴，夜间加重。这是脾肾阴虚。使用地黄丸、大补汤而治愈。一个小孩切牙口渴，面色忽白忽赤，脉象洪数，重按无力，左关尺部尤为明显。这属于肾虚。使用地黄丸、补中益气汤寻得治愈。后来受惊吓，面色青，眼睛红，打哈欠切牙，手抓衣领。这是肝经虚热。使用加减八味丸料煎汤让他随意饮用，顿时安宁，又用补中益气汤而痊愈。一个小孩切牙，口渴喜冷饮，大便轻微秘结，寒战痘赤，多在身体侧面。这属于胆经虚热。使用小柴胡汤、柴胡麦门散各一剂，又用加味四物汤而痊愈。
清神化毒汤 治疗心肝火旺，牙齿相互摩擦发声。
组成：升麻、生地黄、木通、甘草、防风、麦门冬
制法：水煎服。
如果寒战、切牙同时出现，则少阴经专门主管此证，需观察痘疮的根本情况。如果痘疮根本溃烂，出现寒战切牙，这是手少阴心火。医经说：热胜则肉腐。寒战切牙，是火气动摇的征象。如果痘疮根本焦黑，出现寒战切牙，这是足少阴肾水，肾色黑，是主蛰封藏的根本，干枯黑色是真脏色显露。肾气寒，在变动表现为战栗，寒战是肾的本病。肾主骨，牙为骨之余，寒战时鼓动脸颊而两牙相轧，切牙是肾寒所引发。这两种证候，在心热则清之，在肾寒则温之，如果病情已经坏败，治疗还有什么益处？或者因为阳气亏损，出现切牙寒战，独参汤、参附汤非常有效。若血气不荣，不能结痂，兼有烦闷不宁，卧时哽气，泄泻寒战切牙，用陈氏异功散（见“形出不快”条）加木香、当归来救治。钱乙的方法，寒战切牙且痘色黑陷的，用百祥丸攻下（方剂见“黑陷”）。薛己说：前述证候，如果手足皆冷，口渴想喝热汤，大便泄泻，这是阳气虚寒，宜用热补法。手足不冷，大便不通，口渴想喝温水，这是脾气虚热，宜用调补法。手足不热，大便不通，口渴想喝热汤，这是脾胃虚弱，宜用温补法。一个小孩出痘，寒战切牙，四肢疲倦蜷缩，大便自利，手足皆冷，喜欢喝热汤。这是阳气虚寒。使用十二味异功散末二钱，诸证顿退，又用人参白术散、参四圣散而结痂。一个十四岁的小孩，面色忽红忽黑，出痘寒战切牙，口渴烦热，喜欢喝热汤。这是阳气虚寒。使用十全大补汤散剂，烦渴顿止，于是用八珍汤加倍加入人参、黄芪。到脓液灌注时，又口渴面赤，这是脓成而气血虚弱，使用当归补血汤、八珍汤而结痂。到一个多月后，面赤烦渴，有时昏愦，痘痕如赭石色，有时发痒，脉象洪大，重按若无。这是血脱，使用大剂量当归补血汤而安宁。一个小孩脓液不灌注，兼有寒战切牙，腹胀。属于脾胃虚弱。使用四君子汤、肉桂、当归、黄芪、肉豆蔻，又用参四圣汤而痊愈，后用托里散、四君子汤而结痂。一个小孩瘙痒塌陷，寒战切牙，喜欢喝温水，手足不热。属于阳气虚弱。使用参四圣散，诸证已退，用参托里散，其浆渐灌，用十全大补汤，其痂顿然结痂。一个产妇出痘，寒战切牙，腹胀口渴，脚冷身热。这是脾胃内虚寒外假热，使用大补汤加桂枝、附子三四剂，去掉附子，换干姜二三剂，仍用参四圣散并五味异功散加当归、黄芪治疗而痊愈。
许多书籍多以寒战切牙并列为不治之证，然而如果能善于治疗，多有存活者。大概是因为热毒不能完全发散，内与正气相搏，导致筋脉因此动摇。人的一身，只有手足能运动，口能开阖，都是虚弱的部位，在相搏之际，所以手足战摇，而口齿相互摩擦。
无忧散 治疗临危痘证，寒战切牙。
组成：人牙（自然脱落的，数量不限，用火煅存性，淬入韭菜汁内，大牙三次，小牙二次，研成极细粉末）、雄黄、珍珠（各五分）

Chanzhan (shivering with cold) refers to the sensation of severe cold accompanied by violent trembling and shaking. Qiya (teeth grinding/chattering) refers to the sound produced by the upper and lower teeth rubbing against each other. The Classics state: "All wind-induced tremors and convulsions belong to Liver Wood." Chanzhan with violent shaking is a manifestation of excessive Wind; similarly, the surging of Fire Qi can cause objects to vibrate. Qian Yi stated: "The Liver governs Wind; deficiency leads to teeth grinding and frequent yawning." He also said: "Upward deviation of the eyes with teeth grinding indicates Heart Heat." Therefore, chanzhan and qiya are primarily governed by the Heart and Liver organs. Some attribute chanzhan to Qi deficiency and qiya to Blood deficiency; others claim qiya results from withered teeth due to insufficient body fluids. These views fail to grasp the underlying pathology. In smallpox, chanzhan and qiya are ominous signs. Whether appearing singly or together, if the sores are already necrotic and accompanied by panting, distress, and confusion, death is imminent within days. In patients with smallpox, if the sores are originally dense and the body shakes during movement, this is due to the body being overwhelmed by the toxin, unable to support itself, making movement difficult. This should not be mistaken for chanzhan, nor should hot-natured herbs be administered recklessly. If only qiya occurs, it indicates hyperactivity of Fire in the Heart and Liver meridians. Since both Liver deficiency and Heart Heat can cause qiya, one should not hastily declare it incurable.
If chanzhan occurs when the sores first emerge, it signifies that pathogenic factors are attempting to exit and are contending with righteous Qi, causing trembling—a sign of Fire. Once the sores erupt, the symptom will subside. The governing formula is Chaige Guizhi Tang (Bupleurum and Kudzu Decoction with Cinnamon Twig). If chanzhan occurs after the sores have erupted or formed pus, it indicates deficiency of Wei Qi (Defensive Qi), which cannot withstand the excess pathogenic factor. The governing formula is Yangwei Huadu Tang (Nourish Defense and Transform Toxin Decoction). If the sores are originally dense, accompanied by swelling, pain, meridian instability, and constant trembling, this is not chanzhan but a reaction to the eruption; it will resolve once pus forms and pain subsides. During the scabbing stage, if the scabs are neat but occasional shivering occurs, it signals the recovery of righteous Qi, which is temporarily unable to maintain control. There is no need for worry; it will stabilize shortly. If there is jingtirou (muscle twitching/fasciculation), it is because blood in the meridians has been depleted by the sores, failing to nourish muscles and tendons, causing involuntary jumping of the limbs and automatic contraction of skin and flesh. This is not chanzhan; treatment should focus on nourishing Qi and Blood using Shiquan Dabu Tang (Perfect Ten Tonifying Decoction). [Xue Ji] recorded a case of a 14-year-old boy whose smallpox was nearly cured when he suddenly developed chanzhan and cold extremities, with a faint, thin pulse undetectable at the cun position. This was Spleen Qi deficiency with heat. He was cured using Wumei Yigong San (Five-Ingredient Extraordinary Work Powder), Dushen Tang (Single Ginseng Decoction), and Shiquan Dabu Tang. A woman developed chanzhan after smallpox recovery, with a floating, large pulse that became faint upon deep pressure, indicating Qi and Blood deficiency. She was cured after more than thirty doses of Shiquan Dabu Tang. Later, due to overwork, she experienced alternating chills and fever; her extremities were cold as water during chills and hot as fire during fevers, with a floating, large pulse that became thin upon deep pressure. This indicated severe Yang Qi deficiency. She took Buzhong Yiqi Tang (Tonify the Middle and Augment the Qi Decoction) with Guizhi (Cinnamon Twig) and Fuzi (Aconite Root) in the morning, and Bawei Wan (Eight-Ingredient Pill) with increased Guizhi and Fuzi in the evening, taking over fifty doses of each to achieve stability.
Chaige Guizhi Tang (Bupleurum and Kudzu Decoction with Cinnamon Twig)
Ingredients: Chaihu (Bupleuri Radix), Gegen (Puerariae Lobatae Radix), Gancao (Glycyrrhizae Radix et Rhizoma), Guizhi (Cinnamomi Ramulus), Fangfeng (Saposhnikoviae Radix), Renshen (Panacis Ginseng Radix), Baishaoyao (Paeoniae Radix Alba) in equal parts.
Preparation: Coarsely powder. Add three slices of Shengjiang (Zingiberis Rhizoma Recens), one cup of water, decoct to seven-tenths volume, remove dregs, and take warm at any time.
Yangwei Huadu Tang (Nourish Defense and Transform Toxin Decoction)
Ingredients: Renshen (Panacis Ginseng Radix), Huangqi (Astragali Radix, honey-fried), Guizhi (Cinnamomi Ramulus), Gancao (Glycyrrhizae Radix et Rhizoma), Danggui (Angelicae Sinensis Radix).
Preparation: Decoct in water and take.
Chu Yushi stated: Chills, fatigue, or chanzhan can cause smallpox to retract. Use Chen Zhongwen's Yigong San (Extraordinary Work Powder). Lou Shi stated: He treated smallpox chanzhan using Baizhu (Atractylodis Macrocephalae Rhizoma), [missing character], Danggui (Angelicae Sinensis Radix), and Huangqin (Scutellariae Radix) with success.
[Yuan Shi] Dufu Tang (Single Aconite Decoction) treats chanzhan.
Ingredients: Dafu Zi (Aconiti Lateralis Radix Preparata, five qian, wrapped in flour and baked).
Preparation: Use one zhong of water and seven stalks of Dengcao (Junci Medulla), decoct and take.
Adding Renshen (Panacis Ginseng Radix, two qian), Rougui (Cinnamomi Cortex, five fen), Huangqi (Astragali Radix, two qian), Juhong (Citri Reticulatae Pericarpium Rubrum, one qian), Gancao (Glycyrrhizae Radix et Rhizoma, five fen), and Danggui (Angelicae Sinensis Radix, one qian) to the above formula creates Fuzi Zhenyin Tang (Aconite Shaking Yin Decoction), a highly effective formula for chanzhan and qiya, except for cases with purple-black necrotic sores.
Qiya with yawning indicates Liver deficiency. The Liver belongs to Wood and governs the Yin hour. Yin corresponds to Xiang Huo (Ministerial Fire). Fire stealing Wood's Qi manifests as Liver deficiency symptoms. Yang pulls upward, Yin pulls downward, resulting in yawning. When Yang reaches its peak and descends, and Yin reaches its peak and ascends, the mouth closes and teeth grind. Treat with Shiquan Dabu Tang (Perfect Ten Tonifying Decoction). If qiya occurs at the onset of fever, it differs from cases of itching, collapse, vomiting, diarrhea, and Spleen/Stomach weakness; differentiate and treat accordingly. Frequent yawning, qiya, and sudden oppression indicate Liver storing Wind-Heat; treat with Qianghuo Tang (Notopterygii Rhizoma et Radix Decoction). Upward eye deviation with qiya indicates Heart Heat; treat with Daochi San (Guide Out Red Powder). Do not recklessly use Chen's acrid-hot formulas. Upward eye deviation with qiya indicates Heart Heat; all sores relate to Heart Fire. Upward deviation is the image of Fire flaring up; qiya is the image of Fire Qi shaking. Treat with Daochi San (Guide Out Red Powder) plus Jiuhuanglian (Alcohol-fried Scutellariae Radix) and Niubangzi (Arctii Fructus). If qiya accompanies red face and thirst, worsening at night, use Dihuang Wan (Rehmannia Pill). [Xue Ji] recorded a child with smallpox qiya, yellow face, and desire for soup, indicating weak Yang Qi. He was cured using Wumei Yigong San (Five-Ingredient Extraordinary Work Powder) with Muxiang (Aucklandiae Radix). Later, qiya recurred with red face, thirst, and nighttime worsening, indicating Spleen-Kidney Yin deficiency. He was cured using Dihuang Wan (Rehmannia Pill) and Dabu Tang (Great Tonifying Decoction). Another child had qiya and thirst, fluctuating pale/red complexion, flooding-numerous pulse, weak upon pressure, especially at the left Guan and Chi positions, indicating Kidney deficiency. He was cured using Dihuang Wan (Rehmannia Pill) and Buzhong Yiqi Tang (Tonify the Middle and Augment the Qi Decoction). Later, after fright, he had a blue face, red eyes, yawning, qiya, and hand-groping, indicating Liver Meridian deficiency-heat. He was given Jianba Weiwang Pian (Modified Eight-Ingredient Pill) decoction to drink freely, achieving instant calm, followed by Buzhong Yiqi Tang (Tonify the Middle and Augment the Qi Decoction) for full recovery. Another child had qiya, thirst for cold drinks, slight constipation, chanzhan with red sores mainly on the sides, indicating Gallbladder Meridian deficiency-heat. He was treated with Xiaochaihu Tang (Minor Bupleurum Decoction) and Chaihu Maimen San (Bupleurum and Ophiopogon Powder), one dose each, followed by Jiawei Siwu Tang (Modified Four Substances Decoction) for recovery.
Qingshen Huadu Tang (Clear Spirit and Transform Toxin Decoction) treats Heart-Liver Fire hyperactivity causing teeth grinding.
Ingredients: Shengma (Cimicifugae Rhizoma), Shengdihuang (Rehmanniae Radix), Mutong (Akebiae Caulis), Gancao (Glycyrrhizae Radix et Rhizoma), Fangfeng (Saposhnikoviae Radix), Maimendong (Ophiopogonis Radix).
Preparation: Decoct in water and take.
Renshen Chantui San (Ginseng and Cicada Slough Powder) treats qiya, wheezing, fullness, irritability, and thirst (see "Smallpox Irritability").
[Qian Shi] Baishen Wan (Hundred Spirits Pill) is excellent for treating teeth grinding.
If chanzhan and qiya occur together, the Shaoyin channel specifically governs them; observe the nature of the sores. If the sores are ulcerated with chanzhan and qiya, it is Hand-Shaoyin Heart Fire. The Classics state: "Excess heat causes flesh to rot." Chanzhan and qiya are images of Fire Qi shaking. If the sores are blackened/necrotic with chanzhan and qiya, it is Foot-Shaoyin Kidney Water. The Kidney color is black; it is the root of storage and sealing. Dry blackness reveals the true Zang color. Cold Kidney Qi manifests as shivering; chanzhan is a primary Kidney disease. The Kidney governs bones; teeth are the surplus of bones. Chanzhan causes jaw quivering and teeth grinding; qiya is caused by Kidney cold. For these two conditions, clear Heat if in the Heart, warm Cold if in the Kidney. If the disease is already ruined, what benefit is treatment? If qiya and chanzhan result from Yang Qi depletion, Dushen Tang (Single Ginseng Decoction) and Shenfu Tang (Ginseng and Aconite Decoction) are very effective. If Blood and Qi fail to nourish, preventing scabbing, accompanied by distress, restlessness, choking sensations when lying down, diarrhea, chanzhan, and qiya, use Chen's Yigong San (Extraordinary Work Powder) with Muxiang (Aucklandiae Radix) and Danggui (Angelicae Sinensis Radix) to rescue. Qian's method for chanzhan, qiya, and black depression is Baixiang Wan (Hundred Auspicious Pills). [Xue Ji] stated: For the aforementioned conditions, if extremities are cold, thirsty for hot drinks, and having diarrhea, it is Yang Qi deficiency-cold; use hot tonification. If extremities are not cold, constipated, and thirsty for warm drinks, it is Spleen Qi deficiency-heat; use regulating tonification. If extremities are not hot, constipated, and thirsty for hot drinks, it is Spleen-Stomach weakness; use warm tonification. A child with smallpox had chanzhan, qiya, tired/curled limbs, spontaneous loose stools, cold extremities, and preference for hot drinks, indicating Yang Qi deficiency-cold. Two qian of Shierwei Yigong San (Twelve-Ingredient Extraordinary Work Powder) powder rapidly alleviated symptoms, followed by Renshen Baizhu San (Ginseng and Atractylodes Macrocephala Powder) and Shensi Sixiao San (Four Sages Powder) for scabbing. A 14-year-old with fluctuating red/black face, smallpox chanzhan/qiya, thirst, irritability, and preference for hot drinks had Yang Qi deficiency-cold. Shiquan Dabu Tang (Perfect Ten Tonifying Decoction) powder stopped irritability/thirst immediately; then Bazhen Tang (Eight Treasures Decoction) with increased Renshen (Panacis Ginseng Radix) and Huangqi (Astragali Radix) was used. At the pus stage, recurrence of thirst/red face indicated Blood/Qi deficiency after pus formation; Danggui Buxue Tang (Dong Quai Tonify Blood Decoction) and Bazhen Tang (Eight Treasures Decoction) led to scabbing. Over a month later, red face, irritability, occasional confusion, ochre-colored scars, itching, and flooding pulse (weak on pressure) indicated Blood exhaustion; large doses of Danggui Buxue Tang (Dong Quai Tonify Blood Decoction) brought stability. A child with non-pus-forming sores, chanzhan, qiya, and abdominal distension had Spleen-Stomach weakness. Sijunzi Tang (Four Gentlemen Decoction), Rougui (Cinnamomi Cortex), Danggui (Angelicae Sinensis Radix), Huangqi (Astragali Radix), and Roudoukou (Myristicae Semen) were used, followed by Shensi Sixiao San (Four Sages Powder) for recovery, and Tuoli San (Support Interior Powder) and Sijunzi Tang (Four Gentlemen Decoction) for scabbing. A child with itching/collapse, chanzhan, qiya, preference for warm drinks, and non-hot extremities had Yang Qi deficiency. Shensi Sixiao San (Four Sages Powder) alleviated symptoms; Tuoli San (Support Interior Powder) promoted pus formation; Shiquan Dabu Tang (Perfect Ten Tonifying Decoction) induced rapid scabbing. A postpartum woman with smallpox had chanzhan, qiya, abdominal distension/thirst, cold feet, and hot body, indicating Spleen-Stomach internal deficiency-cold with external false-heat. Dabu Tang (Great Tonifying Decoction) with Guizhi (Cinnamon Twig) and Fuzi (Aconite Root) for three to four doses, then removing Fuzi and adding Ganjiang (Zingiberis Rhizoma) for two to three doses, followed by Shensi Sixiao San (Four Sages Powder) and Wumei Yigong San (Five-Ingredient Extraordinary Work Powder) with Danggui (Angelicae Sinensis Radix) and Huangqi (Astragali Radix) resulted in recovery.
Many books list chanzhan and qiya together as incurable. However, with proper treatment, many survive. Generally, if heat-toxins cannot fully express and contend internally with righteous Qi, tendons and vessels shake. The hands, feet, and mouth are the most vulnerable areas for movement and opening/closing. During contention, limbs shake and teeth grind.
