（附论）
夫时气病新瘥。血气尚虚。津液未复。复以劳动。便成病焉。若言语思虑。则劳伤于神。
梳头洗澡。则劳于力。未甚劳而强劳之。则生热。热气既还入经络。复为病者。名曰劳复。
又病新瘥。脾胃尚虚。谷气未复。若食肥肉鱼脍。饼枣栗之属。则未能消化。停积在于肠胃。
使胀满结实。因更发热。复为病者。名曰食复。病新瘥后。但得食糜粥。宁少食令饥。慎勿
饱。不得他有所食。虽思之勿与之也。计日转久。可渐食羊肉白糜。若美汁雉兔鹿肉不可食
。及猪狗肉也。新瘥后常卧。慎勿早起。梳头洗面。非但体劳。亦不可多言语。用心使意。
劳神。凡此皆令人劳复。故督邮顾子献得病。已瘥未痊。诣华敷视脉。曰。虽瘥尚虚。未得
复。阳气不足。慎勿劳事。余劳尚可。女劳则死。当吐舌数寸。其妇闻其夫瘥。从百余里来
省之。经宿交接。中间三日。发热口噤。舌出数寸而死。病新瘥未满百日。气力未平复。而
以房室者。略无不死。有士盖正者。病愈后六十日。已能行射猎。以房室即过而致死。及热
病房室。名为阴阳易之病。病皆难治多死。近者有一士大夫。小得伤寒。瘥已十余日。能乘
马行来。自谓平复。以房室。即小腹急痛。手足拘挛而死。凡时病瘥后。未满五日。食一切
面肉者更发。又因时病瘥后。新起饮酒及韭菜。病更发。时病新瘥后。食生鱼 。下痢必不
止。时病新瘥食生菜。令颜色终身不平复。时病新瘥汗解。饮冷水者。损心胞。令人虚不复
。时病新瘥。食生枣及羊肉者。必膈上作热蒸。时病新瘥。食犬羊等肉者。作骨中蒸热。时
病新瘥。食鱼肉与瓜生菜。令人身热一作肿。时病新瘥。食蒜脍者。病发必致大困。

（附论）
当时行病刚刚痊愈，气血仍然虚弱，津液尚未恢复。如果再次进行体力劳动，就会导致疾病复发。如果言语过多、思虑过重，就会劳神伤气；梳头洗澡，就会耗损体力。即使没有过度劳累却强行劳作，就会产生内热。热气一旦重新侵入经络，就会导致疾病复发，这种情况称为“劳复”。
另外，疾病刚痊愈时，脾胃功能依然虚弱，谷气（饮食精气）尚未恢复。如果食用肥肉、生鱼片、饼、枣、栗子等食物，身体无法消化，这些食物停滞积聚在肠胃中，导致腹部胀满结实，进而引起发热，使疾病复发，这种情况称为“食复”。
疾病刚痊愈后，只能吃稀粥等流质食物，宁可少吃感到饥饿，千万不要吃撑。不要食用其他食物，即使想吃也不要给。经过一段时间调养后，可以逐渐食用羊肉和米粥。但是，美味的汁液以及野鸡、兔子、鹿肉，还有猪肉、狗肉都是不可食用的。病愈后应当经常卧床休息，切忌早起。梳头洗脸不仅耗费体力，也不宜多说话、用心思虑，以免劳神。以上种种都会导致劳复。
例如，督邮顾子献患病，虽然症状消失但未完全康复，他去请华佗诊脉。华佗说：“虽然表面看似痊愈，但体内依然虚弱，尚未真正恢复。阳气不足，务必避免劳累。一般的劳累还可以忍受，但如果是房事劳累，则会导致死亡，表现为舌头伸出数寸长。”他的妻子听说丈夫病愈，从百余里外赶来探望。经过一夜的房事后，中间过了三天，患者出现发热、牙关紧闭、舌头伸出数寸而死亡。疾病刚痊愈未满一百天，气力尚未平复，如果进行房事，几乎没有不死的情况。
有一位名叫盖正的士人，病愈后六十天，已经能行走射箭狩猎，结果因房事过度而致死。如果在热病期间或热病初愈时进行房事，这种病症称为“阴阳易”，病情都很难治疗，死亡率很高。
最近有一位士大夫，得了轻微的伤寒，痊愈十多天后，还能骑马出行，自认为已经完全康复，结果因房事导致小腹急痛、手足拘挛而死。
凡是时病痊愈后，未满五天，如果食用一切面食和肉类，疾病会再次发作。又因为时病痊愈后，刚起身就饮酒或吃韭菜，也会导致疾病复发。时病刚痊愈，如果吃生鱼，必然导致下痢不止。时病刚痊愈吃生菜，会导致面色终身无法恢复正常。时病刚痊愈通过发汗解表后，如果喝冷水，会损伤心包络，使人虚弱无法恢复。时病刚痊愈，如果吃生枣和羊肉，必然导致胸膈上部产生蒸热感。时病刚痊愈，如果吃狗肉、羊肉等，会导致骨中蒸热。时病刚痊愈，如果吃鱼肉与瓜果生菜，会导致身体发热甚至肿胀。时病刚痊愈，如果吃蒜泥和生鱼片，疾病复发时必然导致极度困顿。

治疗天行病痊愈后劳发。此病复发，或因起动劳役，或因饮食稍多，或因言语过分，或缘视听不节，或为动转不常，皆成劳复。如果劳复严重，甚至无法救治，比初得病时更剧，不可因复发而轻视。劳复的症状一如伤寒初起，有如此情况者，适宜合葱白等七味饮服之，渐覆取汗。
葱白（连须切一斤）、干葛（切六合）、新豉（一合，纸裹）、生姜（切二合）、生麦门冬（去心六合）、干地黄（六合）、劳水（八升，以水以杓扬之一千遍）。以上药物用劳水煎之，煮至三分减二，去渣，分三次温服，间隔时间如人行走八九里。如觉欲汗，渐复与之。与伤寒无异。

When epidemic febrile diseases (Shi Qi Bing) have just subsided, the blood and qi (Vital Energy) remain deficient, and body fluids (Jin Ye) have not yet recovered. If one engages in physical labor again, illness will recur. Excessive speech or overthinking damages the spirit (Shen); combing hair or bathing consumes physical strength. Even if not overly fatigued, forcing oneself to work generates internal heat. Once this heat re-enters the meridians and collaterals, it causes disease recurrence, a condition known as "Lao Fu" (Relapse due to Overexertion).
Furthermore, when a disease has just subsided, the spleen and stomach functions are still weak, and the qi of grain (Gu Qi) has not recovered. Consuming fatty meat, raw fish slices, cakes, dates, chestnuts, etc., which the body cannot digest, leads to stagnation and accumulation in the intestines and stomach. This causes abdominal distension and firmness, leading to fever and disease recurrence, a condition known as "Shi Fu" (Relapse due to Dietary Indiscretion).
After a disease subsides, one should only consume congee or liquid foods. It is better to eat little and feel slightly hungry than to become full. Do not consume other foods; even if desired, they should not be given. After a period of time, mutton and rice porridge can be gradually introduced. However, rich juices, as well as pheasant, rabbit, and venison, along with pork and dog meat, must be avoided. Post-recovery, one should rest in bed frequently and avoid rising early. Combing hair and washing the face consume energy; excessive talking and mental exertion damage the spirit. All these factors lead to Lao Fu.
For example, Gu Zixian, a district supervisor, fell ill. Although symptoms had ceased, he had not fully recovered. He sought pulse diagnosis from Hua Tuo. Hua Tuo stated: "Although superficially recovered, the interior remains deficient and true recovery has not occurred. Yang qi is insufficient. Avoid all labor. General fatigue may be tolerated, but sexual exhaustion will lead to death, characterized by the tongue protruding several inches." His wife, hearing of his recovery, traveled over a hundred li to visit him. After intercourse for one night, three days later, the patient developed fever, trismus (lockjaw), and his tongue protruded several inches before he died. Within one hundred days of recovery, while qi and strength are not yet restored, engaging in sexual activity rarely ends without death.
A scholar named Gai Zheng, sixty days after recovery, was able to walk, shoot arrows, and hunt, but died due to excessive sexual activity. Engaging in sexual activity during the heat stage of a febrile disease or immediately after recovery results in a condition called "Yin Yang Yi" (Exchange of Yin and Yang), which is difficult to treat and often fatal.
Recently, a scholar contracted mild Shang Han (Cold Damage). More than ten days after recovery, he could ride a horse and travel, believing himself fully recovered. However, due to sexual activity, he suffered acute lower abdominal pain and spasms of the hands and feet, leading to death.
Generally, within five days of recovering from an epidemic disease, consuming noodles or meat causes relapse. Rising early after recovery and drinking alcohol or eating leeks also triggers relapse. Consuming raw fish shortly after recovery inevitably leads to persistent dysentery. Eating raw vegetables after recovery causes permanent discoloration of the complexion. Drinking cold water after sweating resolves the exterior damages the Pericardium (Xin Bao), causing chronic deficiency. Eating raw dates and mutton after recovery causes steaming heat in the upper jiao (chest/diaphragm). Eating dog or mutton causes steaming heat in the bones. Eating fish/meat with melons or raw vegetables causes body heat or swelling. Eating garlic paste and raw fish leads to severe debility upon relapse.
