（附论）
所谓时气病，是由于湿毒之气旺盛，积聚在脾胃之中。如果体内有热，就会导致新摄入的食物郁结蒸腾，无法消化，大小便干结涩滞，因此导致身体和面部变黄，颜色有的像橘子皮，有的像桃树枝的颜色。

许仁则治疗急黄。此病初起，与天行病（流行性传染病）相差不大。到了第五六天，如果身体发黄严重，眼泪、汗水、唾液、小便都像柏树汁的颜色，眼白睛正黄。病情更重时，与天行病中最重的情况没有区别。如果到了这种困境，必须根据前面救治天行病最重的“半夏七味汤”来抢救。如果未到这种程度，适宜根据后面的方法。急黄的状况，刚开始得像天行病一样。患天行病经过两三天，适宜合用麻黄等五味汤服用，通过发汗来泄除黄势。

治疗时气黄病，初发只感觉四肢沉重不适，一会儿看见眼中发黄，逐渐发展到面部发黄，直到全身皆黄。急忙让尿液滴在白纸上，如果像被柏树汁染过一样，说明热毒已经入内，需紧急治疗。如果刚感觉到就处理。
用法：用瓜蒂赤豆散吹入鼻中，若黄汁流出数升者大多痊愈。如果病位深，应看其舌下两边有白色脉络弥漫的地方，用芦刀割破，若有紫血流出数升也会停止。但这需要熟练懂得切割的人操作，如果不擅长切割，忽然弄断舌下青色脉络，会导致出血不止。可以用烧红的纺铁灼烧此脉络使其焦枯，同时服用瓜蒂混杂巴豆制成的丸剂，大小便也会排出。黄汗破裂灼烧之后，禁止食用各种杂食。又说，有根据黄坐黄的说法，需要分别对待。一方用竹粥煮饮之。
又一方。
用醋、酒浸泡鸡蛋一夜，吞下蛋清数枚。
又一方。
药材：竹叶（五升，切碎）、小麦（七分）、石膏（三两）。

(Attached Discussion)
The so-called "Shi Qi" disease (Seasonal Epidemic Disease) is caused by the abundance of damp-toxic qi, which accumulates in the Spleen and Stomach. If there is heat within, it causes newly ingested food to stagnate and steam without being digested, leading to constipation and difficult urination. Consequently, the body and face turn yellow, with colors resembling orange peel or peach branches.

Xu Ren Ze's treatment for Ji Huang (Acute Jaundice). This disease initially resembles Tian Xing Bing (Epidemic Disease). By the fifth or sixth day, if jaundice is severe, tears, sweat, saliva, and urine become dark like cypress sap, and the whites of the eyes are yellow. In its most severe state, it is indistinguishable from the worst cases of Tian Xing Bing. If reaching this critical stage, one must rescue using Ban Xia Qi Wei Tang (Pinellia Five-Ingredient Decoction) used for severe Tian Xing Bing. If not yet that severe, follow the subsequent methods. Acute Jaundice begins similarly to Epidemic Disease. After two to three days of Epidemic Disease, administer Ma Huang Wu Wei Tang (Ephedra Five-Ingredient Decoction) to induce sweating and dissipate the jaundice pathogen.
Ingredients: Ma Huang (Ephedrae Herba, 3 liang, remove joints), Gan Ge (Puerariae Radix, 5 liang), Shi Gao (Gypsi Fibrosus, 8 liang, ground), Sheng Jiang (Zingiberis Rhizoma Recens, 6 liang), Yin Chen (Artemisiae Scopariae Herba, 2 liang).
Preparation and Administration: Cut herbs. Add 8 sheng of water, boil down to 1.7 sheng. Strain. Divide into three warm doses. Space doses by the time it takes a person to walk ten li. After taking, cover with blankets to induce slight sweating to disperse the pathogen.
After inducing sweat with Ma Huang Wu Wei Tang, before resting, after three to five days, administer Zhi Zi Wu Wei Tang (Gardenia Five-Ingredient Decoction) to induce purgation.

Treats early-stage Shi Qi Jaundice. Initially, only heaviness and discomfort in the limbs are felt. Soon, the eyes turn yellow, followed by the face, and finally the whole body.

Usage: Use Gua Di Chi Dou San (Melon Tip and Red Bean Powder) insufflated into the nose. If several sheng of yellow fluid discharge, recovery is likely. If the disease is deep, examine the sides under the tongue for diffuse white vessels. Cut them open with a reed knife; if several sheng of purple blood flow, it stops. This requires skilled practitioners. Improper cutting may sever blue vessels under the tongue, causing uncontrollable bleeding. Alternatively, cauterize these vessels with a heated spinning iron. Simultaneously, administer pills made from Gua Di (Cucumeris Fructus) and Ba Dou (Crotonis Fructus). This promotes bowel and urinary discharge. After blistering and cauterization of yellow sweat, avoid miscellaneous foods. It is also said that one must distinguish between "Sitting Yellow" and "Yellow Sitting."
