所谓伤寒坏病,是指三阴三阳各经受邪之后,毒气未散,滞留于脏腑,导致病症变化多端,因此称为“坏伤寒”。
原本太阳病未解,转入少阳经,出现胁下硬满、干呕不能进食、寒热往来等症状,脉象沉紧,适宜使用小柴胡汤。若寸口脉洪大、数而滑,洪大表示营气盛,滑数表示卫气实。营气盛则郁结不通,可用发汗法;卫气实则导致大便干结难解。此时三焦闭塞,津液不通,营卫相互搏结,出现心烦发热、双眼如火烧、鼻干面赤、舌燥齿黄、极度口渴等症状。
所以,对于过经的伤寒太阳病,若在发病三天后已经发汗,或者经过催吐、攻下、发汗等治疗,但证候仍未解除的,大多会转变为坏病。另外,太阳病转入少阳经,如果已经经过催吐、攻下、发汗治疗,少阳证已消失,这属于坏病。需要查明犯了什么误治错误,然后按照相应的法则进行治疗。这些都是因为伤寒病在经络中,经过发汗、催吐、攻下治疗后病证未除,又感受了不同的外邪(如寒、暑、燥、湿、风等不同性质的邪气),病变随之改变,所以称为坏病。还有伤寒过了传经周期,再次受热邪侵袭,热邪留滞蓄积在脏腑,病症变化多端的,以及伤寒症状解除后,身体虚弱消瘦、气息短少,其余证候尚未清除的,都称为坏病。

Huai Shanghan (Damaged Cold Damage) refers to the condition where, after the pathogenic factors have affected all three Yin and three Yang meridians, the toxic qi has not dissipated but remains stagnant in the Zang-Fu organs, causing the symptoms to vary frequently. Hence it is called "Damaged Cold Damage."
If the original Taiyang disease does not resolve and transfers to the Shaoyang meridian, presenting with hardness and fullness below the costal region, dry retching, inability to eat, alternating chills and fever, and a deep-tight pulse, Xiao Chaihu Tang (Minor Bupleurum Decoction) is appropriate. If the Cun Kou (radial artery at the wrist) pulse is surging, rapid, and slippery, a surging pulse indicates abundant Ying Qi (Nutritive Qi), while a slippery-rapid pulse indicates robust Wei Qi (Defensive Qi). Abundant Ying Qi leads to stagnation and constraint; sweating can be induced. Robust Wei Qi leads to hard and difficult defecation, closure of the San Jiao (Triple Burner), blockage of body fluids, and interaction between Ying and Wei Qi, resulting in mental restlessness, fever, eyes burning like fire, dry nose, red face, dry tongue, yellow teeth, and extreme thirst. Therefore, for Taiyang disease that has passed its transmission cycle, if sweating was performed three days after onset, or if emesis, purgation, or sweating methods were used but the syndrome remained unresolved, it often transforms into Huai Bing (Damaged Disease). Furthermore, if Taiyang disease transfers to Shaoyang, and after emesis, purgation, and sweating, the Shaoyang syndrome has ceased, this is also considered Huai Bing. One must determine what error (Ni) was made and treat according to the law. These cases arise because the Cold Damage pathogen was in the meridians, and after sweating, emesis, and purgation, the symptoms did not clear, followed by infection with different heterogenous pathogens (such as cold, heat, dryness, dampness, wind). The pathology changes accordingly, hence termed Huai Bing. Additionally, if Cold Damage passes the transmission cycle and is re-infected by heat pathogens, which remain accumulated in the Zang-Fu organs causing variable symptoms, or if after the resolution of Cold Damage, the patient remains weak and emaciated with shortness of breath and residual symptoms, these are all called Huai Bing.
