若饮食减少，四肢倦怠，午后热者，胃气虚也。若起居如常，但发烦热，乃胃实心气盛也。服茜草汤五日愈。
此由真气虚脱，冲任之血不行，化为脓水，或从脐中，或从阴中，淋沥而下，不治即死。灸石门穴二百壮，
服金液丹、姜附汤愈。（脐为神阙穴，上脾下肾，不可有伤，若出脓水，先后天之气泄矣，焉得不死。）
凡无故昏倒，乃胃气闭也，灸中脘即愈。（贪食多欲之妇，多有此证。）
生产出血过多，或早于房事，或早作劳动，致损真气，乃成虚劳。脉弦而紧，咳嗽发热，四肢常冷，或咯
血吐血，灸石门穴三百壮，服延寿丹、金液丹，或钟乳粉，十日减，一月安。（凡虚劳而其脉弦紧者，病已剧
矣，况在生产而出血过多者乎！急投温补，唯恐已迟，苟或昧此，尚欲滋阴，愈无日矣。）
小儿纯阳，其脉行疾，一息六七至为率，迟冷数热与大人脉同。但小儿之病，为乳食所伤者，十居其半，
发热用平胃散，吐泻用珍珠散，头痛发热，恐是外感，用荜澄茄散，谷食不化，用丁香丸，泄泻用金液丹。
（小儿之脉较之大人固是行疾，第略差半至一至为率，若六七至，非平脉也。平脉而六七至，则数脉将八至矣，
脉至八至非脱而何。）
风木太过，令人发搐，又积热蓄于胃脘，胃气瞀闭，亦令卒仆，不知人事。先服碧霞散吐痰，次进知母黄
芩汤，或青饼子、朱砂丸皆可。若脾虚发搐，或吐泻后发搐乃慢惊风也，灸中脘三十壮，服姜附汤而愈。（小
儿之急惊、慢惊，犹大人中风之闭证、脱证，温清补泻，审病当而用药
确，自无差讹。）
如果饮食减少，四肢倦怠无力，午后出现发热，这是胃气虚弱所致。如果起居如常，只是感到烦热，这是胃中实热、心气旺盛所致。服用茜草汤，五日即可痊愈。
这是由于真气虚脱，冲脉和任脉的血液运行不畅，化为脓水，或者从肚脐中流出，或者从阴道中流出，淋漓不断，如果不治疗就会死亡。艾灸石门穴二百壮，服用金液丹、姜附汤即可痊愈。（肚脐即神阙穴，上连脾脏，下接肾脏，不可受损，如果流出脓水，先天和后天的元气就会泄漏，怎么能不死呢。）
凡是无缘无故突然昏倒，这是胃气闭塞所致，艾灸中脘穴即可痊愈。（贪吃多欲的妇女，多有这种病症。）
分娩时出血过多，或者过早进行房事，或者过早从事劳动，导致损伤真气，从而形成虚劳病。脉象弦而紧，咳嗽发热，四肢经常发冷，或者咯血吐血，艾灸石门穴三百壮，服用延寿丹、金液丹，或者钟乳粉，十日症状减轻，一月身体安和。（凡是患虚劳病且脉象弦紧的，病情已经严重了，何况是在生产后出血过多的情况！急需投用温补之法，唯恐已经太迟，如果对此不明白，还想采用滋阴的方法，那就没救的日子了。）
小儿属于纯阳之体，其脉搏运行迅速，一呼一吸间跳动六七次为正常标准，迟脉主寒证，数脉主热证，这与大人的脉理相同。但是小儿的疾病，因乳食损伤导致的，占一半以上。发热用平胃散，吐泻用珍珠散，头痛发热，恐怕是外感邪气，用荜澄茄散，谷食不消化，用丁香丸，泄泻用金液丹。（小儿的脉搏比大人确实运行得快些，但略快半至一至为标准，如果达到六七至，就不是平和的脉象了。平和的脉搏如果达到六七至，那么数脉就要达到八至了，脉搏达到八至，不是元气脱失又是什么呢？）
风木之气太过，令人发生抽搐；另外积热蓄积在胃脘部，胃气昏蒙闭塞，也会导致突然仆倒，不知人事。先服用碧霞散催吐痰涎，接着服用知母黄芩汤，或者青饼子、朱砂丸都可以。如果是脾虚引起的抽搐，或者在吐泻之后发生抽搐，这就是慢惊风，艾灸中脘穴三十壮，服用姜附汤即可痊愈。（小儿的急惊风和慢惊风，就像大人的中风病的闭证和脱证一样，温法、清法、补法、泻法，审察病情恰当而用药准确，自然没有差错。）
If dietary intake decreases, limbs feel fatigued and weak, and fever occurs in the afternoon, this is due to deficiency of Stomach Qi (Stomach Energy). If daily activities remain normal but there is only a sensation of irritability and heat, this indicates excess heat in the Stomach and abundance of Heart Qi. Taking Qiancao Tang (Madder Root Decoction) will result in recovery within five days.
This condition arises from the depletion of True Qi (Vital Energy), causing blood in the Chong Mai (Penetrating Vessel) and Ren Mai (Conception Vessel) to fail to circulate, transforming into pus and water. It may discharge from the umbilicus or from the vagina, dripping continuously; without treatment, it leads to death. Moxibustion on Shimen (CV5) for two hundred moxa cones, combined with administration of Jinye Dan (Golden Fluid Pill) and Jiangfu Tang (Ginger and Aconite Decoction), will lead to recovery. (The umbilicus is Shenque (CV8), connecting above to the Spleen and below to the Kidney; it must not be injured. If pus and water discharge, the Qi of both the Pre-Heaven and Post-Heaven sources will leak out, how can one avoid death?)
Whenever one faints suddenly without an obvious cause, it is due to closure of Stomach Qi; moxibustion on Zhongwan (CV12) will lead to recovery. (Women who are gluttonous and have excessive desires often suffer from this syndrome.)
Excessive bleeding during childbirth, early resumption of sexual intercourse, or premature physical labor can damage True Qi, resulting in Xu Lao (Deficiency Consumption Disease). The pulse is wiry and tight, accompanied by coughing, fever, cold limbs, hemoptysis, or hematemesis. Moxibustion on Shimen (CV5) for three hundred moxa cones, followed by administration of Yanshou Dan (Longevity Pill), Jinye Dan (Golden Fluid Pill), or Zhuru Fen (Semen Siliphii [Milk Thistle Seed] Powder), will reduce symptoms within ten days and bring stability within one month. (For those suffering from Xu Lao with a wiry and tight pulse, the disease is already severe; how much more so for those with excessive bleeding after childbirth! Urgent warm tonification is required, lest it be too late. If one fails to understand this and attempts Yin-nourishing methods, there will be no hope left.)
Children possess Pure Yang (Pure Yang Constitution); their pulses move rapidly, with six to seven beats per respiratory cycle as the standard. A slow pulse indicates cold, and a rapid pulse indicates heat, consistent with adult pulse theory. However, half of pediatric diseases are caused by damage from milk and food. For fever, use Pingwei San (Peaceful Stomach Powder); for vomiting and diarrhea, use Zhenzhu San (Pearl Powder); for headache and fever, suspecting external contraction, use Bichengqie San (Cubeb Powder); for undigested food, use Dingxiang Wan (Clove Pill); for diarrhea, use Jinye Dan (Golden Fluid Pill). (Although children's pulses are indeed faster than adults', the standard should be slightly faster by half to one beat. Six to seven beats per cycle is not a balanced pulse. If a balanced pulse reaches six to seven beats, a rapid pulse would reach eight beats; a pulse reaching eight beats indicates collapse of Qi.)
Excess Wind-Wood energy causes convulsions. Additionally, accumulated heat stored in the epigastrium, causing the Stomach Qi to become muddled and closed, can also lead to sudden collapse and loss of consciousness. First, administer Bixia San (Green Cloud Powder) to induce vomiting of phlegm; subsequently, give Zhimu Huangqin Tang (Anemarrhena and Scutellaria Decoction), or Qingbingzi (Green Cake Pill) or Zhusha Wan (Cinnabar Pill) are all acceptable. If convulsions arise from Spleen deficiency, or occur after vomiting and diarrhea, this is Man Jing Feng (Slow Convulsive Disorder). Moxibustion on Zhongwan (CV12) for thirty moxa cones, followed by Jiangfu Tang (Ginger and Aconite Decoction), will lead to recovery. (Pediatric Ji Jing Feng [Acute Convulsion] and Man Jing Feng [Slow Convulsion] are analogous to Bi Zheng [Closed Syndrome] and Tuo Zheng [Collapse Syndrome] in adult stroke; applying warming, clearing, tonifying, and draining methods appropriately based on accurate diagnosis ensures no errors.)
