诸小便病，除淋浊不通外，下焦失约证并载于此，析而列之。但其方则宜相通用，故不随证为别。
小便利多 小便利多者，由膀胱虚寒胞滑故也。肾为脏，膀胱肾之腑也，其为表里，俱主水，肾气下
通于阴。腑既虚寒，不能温其脏，故小便白而多。其至夜尿偏甚者，则内阴气生是也。（《病源论》）
小便多者，乃下元虚冷，肾不摄水，以致渗泄，宜菟丝子丸、八味丸、玄菟丹、生料鹿茸丸。（《要
诀》）（按∶《六要》此下曰∶余按肾气不能摄水，降多升少，非大补莫能，参、 佐桂、附可也。）
小便数 小便数者，膀胱与肾俱虚，而有客热乘之故也。肾与膀胱为表里，俱主水，肾气下通于阴。
此二经既虚，致受于客热，虚则不能制水，故令数。小便热则水行涩，涩则小便不快，故令数起也。（《病源论》）
许仁则论此病有二种∶一者小便多而渴，饮食渐加，肌肉渐减，乏气力，少颜色，此是消渴。一者小便虽
数而不至多，又不渴，食饮亦不异常，或不至多，能食，但稍遇天寒冷，即小便多，更无别候，此是
虚冷所致。大都两种俱缘肾气膀胱冷，不瘥便能杀人。肾虚腰冷，无所为害。（《外台》）
若小便常急，遍数虽多，而所出常少，放了复急，不涩痛，却非淋证；亦有小便毕少顷，将谓已尽，忽再
出些少者，多因自忍尿，或忍尿行房事而然。宜生料五苓散，减泽泻之半，加阿胶一钱，吞八味丸，此丸须用
五味子者。（《要诀》）
数而少，热也，茯苓琥珀汤利之；数而多，虚也，薯蓣、莲肉、益智仁之属收之。（《六要》）
小便频而清白长者为虚寒，频而少黄赤涩者为热，及脉洪数、有力无力、或滑或涩参验之，始无差误。凡
热天小便少，寒天小便多，寒热之理，亦易见尔。（《赤水》）（按∶《灵枢·五癃津液别论》当参。）
小便不禁 小便不禁者，肾气虚，下焦受冷也。肾主水，其气下通于阴。肾虚下焦冷，不能温制其
水液，故小便不禁也。（《病源论》）
下焦蓄血，其与虚劳内损，则便溺自遗而不知；下焦虚寒，不能温制水液，则便溺欲出而不禁。是皆心不
与肾交通。（《直指》）
溲溺惟宜形气治也，溲溺不禁，形气病也，轻者脬中有痹，重者大气虚而且绝尔。（《方考》）
不禁谓无禁约，小便多而频，不计遍数。按经云∶水泉不止者，是膀胱不藏也。有湿热，有下元虚惫，
数而少为热，数而多为虚，老人多有此，盖阳气衰微，不能约束，历见数人，卒皆不救，由其不能摄养，
而神气耗散故也。古人有谓不通为热，不禁为寒，乃心肾气弱，阳道衰冷而传化失度。法当温补，温存以养
其神，药石以坚其肾，神完肾固，膀胱气充，自可约束，然必调治及早，庶或十全三五。（《赤水》）
古方书论小便不禁，有属热属寒之辨。不知不禁之谓，乃以小水太利为言，皆属虚寒，何有热症。若因热
而小便频数，则淋沥点滴不能禁止，而又出之不快，或多痛涩，非遗失不禁之谓矣。倘以虚寒误认为热，而
妄投泻火之剂，岂不殆哉。（《金匮翼》）（按∶遗尿不禁为热客肾经，《原病式》有其说，而王氏《杂着》
亦谓为属热。《赤水》、《景岳》既斥其非，而尤氏此言最为约核，故拈出之。又《必读》有肝家郁热，小便
不禁，得温补转炽者，用龙胆泻肝汤加黄鸡肠治验，盖是证之变者也。）
凡治小便不禁者，古方多用固涩，此固宜然，然固涩之剂，不过固其门户，此亦治标之意，而非塞源之道
也。盖小水虽利于肾，而肾上连肺，若肺气无权，则肾水终不能摄，故治水者必须治气，治肾者必须治肺。宜
以参、 、归、术、桂、附、干姜之属为之主，然后相机加以固涩之剂为之佐，庶得治水之道，而源流如度，
否则徒障狂澜，终无益也。余制有巩堤丸方治，无论心脾肺肾之属，皆宜以此为主治。（《景岳》）（按∶
巩堤丸用熟地、菟丝、白术、五味、益智、故纸、附子、茯苓、韭子，山药糊为丸。）
因先病淋，服利药太多，致溺不禁者，参、 大补为主，少佐熟附子。（《六要》）
又有女人下关无闭，遇寒则便数，遇咳嗽则小便适来，亦为不禁者也。（《绳墨》）
遗尿尿床 遗尿者，此由膀胱虚冷，不能约于水故也。膀胱为足太阳，肾为足少阴，二经为表里。
肾主水，肾气下通于阴，小便者水液之余也。膀胱为津液之府，府既虚冷，阳气衰弱，不能约于水，故令遗尿
也。诊其脉来过寸口入鱼际，遗尿。肝脉微滑，遗尿。左手关上脉沉为阴，阴绝者无
肝脉也，苦遗尿，尺脉实，小腹牢痛，小便不禁。尺中虚，小便不禁。肾病小便不禁，脉当沉滑而反浮大。其
色当黑反黄，此土之克水为逆，不治。（《病源论》）（按∶此说脉，肝脉微滑出《灵枢》，其他皆出《
脉经》，但尺中虚未考。）
尿床候，夫人有于眠睡不觉尿出者，是其禀质阴气偏盛，阳气偏虚者，则膀胱肾气俱冷，不能温制于水，
则小便多，或不禁而遗尿。膀胱足太阳也，为肾之腑，肾为足少阴为脏，与膀胱合，俱主水。凡人之阴阳，日
入而阳气尽则阴受气，至夜半阴阳大会，气交则卧睡。小便者水液之余也，从膀胱入于胞为小便。夜卧则
阳气衰伏，不能制于阴，所以阴气独发，水下不禁，故于眠睡而不觉尿出也。（同上）
出而不禁，谓之遗尿。睡里自出，谓之尿床。（《直指·小儿》）
睡着遗尿者，此亦下元冷、小便无禁而然，宜大菟丝子丸，猪胞炙碎煎汤下。凡遗尿皆属虚，古书云∶实
则失气，虚则遗尿。有盛喜致小便多，日夜无度，乃喜极伤心，心与小肠为表里，宜厘清饮、四七汤各半帖和
煎，仍以辰砂妙香散，吞小菟丝子丸或玄菟丹。（《要诀》）
少壮遗尿，下元热也。热则有动其火，故梦遗也。遗虽失而阳热盛，然必有力。治之宜清。（《绳墨》）
（按∶遗尿属热，《原病式》语意不了，丹溪亦有按。难为准，并不录。）
肾主闭脏，肾虚则不能约，以故不时而遗出也，中年人凿丧太过，多有此症。亦有下部湿热太盛，迫水
妄行者，其人必嗜酒。夜遗，少壮责之火，中年责之虚。热则清之，栀
子、木通、茯苓等，虚则补之。（《六要》）
遗溺，遗失也，睡梦中遗失，醒而后觉，童稚多有此，大人少有也。夫童稚阳气尚微，不甚约束，好动而
魂游，故夜多遗失也。古方多用暖药，乃温养阳气之意，经谓虚则遗溺，不约为遗溺，从可知矣。曾见数人二
三十岁，仍遗失不止，后皆无子，得非下元虚寒所致欤。（《赤水》）（按∶又曰。刘河间、丹溪、《千金翼
方》有认为热者，必以脉症相参看，庶无偏热偏寒之弊。予前论寒者，以大概而言也。诸病皆
有寒热虚实，多有始同终异，故治法不能执一而无权也。此引《千金翼方》，当考。）
遗溺一证，有自遗者，以睡中而遗失也。有不禁者，以气门不固而频数不能禁也。又有气脱于上，则下
焦不约而遗失不觉者。此虚极之候也。总之三者皆属虚证，但有轻重之辨耳。若梦中自遗者，惟幼稚多有之，俟
其气壮而固，或少加调理可愈，无足疑也。（《景岳》）
有睡则遗尿，皆责之虚，所以婴儿脾气未固，老人下元不足，多有此证。在婴儿挟热者十居七八，在老人
挟寒者十居七八，此又不可不辨也。（《必读》）
午前数尿 有人每日从早至午前定尿四次，一日之间又自无事，此肾虚所致，亦犹脾肾泄，早泄而
晚愈，次日又复然者也。（《要诀》）
小便余沥 肾主水。劳伤之人，肾气虚弱，不能藏水，胞内虚冷，故小便后水液不止而有余沥。尺脉
缓细者，小便余沥也。（《病源论》）（按∶《脉经》曰∶尺脉缓，脚弱下肿，小便难，有余沥。》

治气牵腰背，及胁内痛，小腹坚，小便不禁，当归汤。（同上）（按∶即张
各种小便疾病，除了淋证和浊尿导致排尿不通的情况外，下焦固摄失职的证候都收录在这里，并加以分析列举。但是治疗方剂可以通用，所以不按照具体证候进行区分。
小便利多：小便次数多且量多，是由于膀胱虚寒、胞宫滑利所致。肾是脏，膀胱是肾的腑，二者互为表里，共同主管水液代谢，肾气向下通达于前阴。既然腑（膀胱）已经虚寒，不能温煦其脏（肾），所以小便颜色白而量多。如果到了夜间排尿特别严重，这是因为体内阴气生发旺盛的缘故。（《诸病源候论》）
小便频多，是因为下元虚冷，肾气不能固摄水液，导致水液渗漏排泄，适宜使用菟丝子丸、八味丸、玄菟丹、生料鹿茸丸。（《济生拔粹》）（按：《六要》在此处补充说：我考察认为，肾气不能摄水，降多升少，非大补不可，人参、肉桂、附子是可以使用的。）
小便频数：小便频数，是因为膀胱与肾都虚弱，而有客热邪气乘虚侵袭所致。肾与膀胱互为表里，共同主管水液，肾气向下通达于前阴。这两条经脉既已虚弱，导致受到客热侵袭，虚则不能制约水液，所以导致小便频数。小便有热感则水流涩滞，涩滞则排尿不畅快，所以导致频频起夜。（《诸病源候论》）
许仁则论述此病有两种类型：一种是小便多且口渴，饮食逐渐增加，肌肉逐渐消瘦，乏力，面色不佳，这是消渴病。另一种是小便虽然频数但不至量多，也不口渴，饮食也没有异常，或者量不多，能进食，只是稍微遇到天气寒冷，就小便增多，没有其他症状，这是由虚冷引起的。大体上这两种情况都是因为肾气和膀胱寒冷，如果不治愈就能致命。肾虚腰冷，危害相对较小。（《外台秘要》）
如果小便经常急迫，遍数虽多，但每次排出的量很少，放下后又感到急迫，没有涩痛感，这就不是淋证；也有的是小便结束后过了一会儿，以为已经排尽，忽然又排出少量尿液，这多因为强行憋尿，或憋尿后行房事所致。适宜使用生料五苓散，减去一半泽泻，加入一钱阿胶，吞服八味丸，这个丸剂必须使用五味子。（《济生拔粹》）
小便频数且量少，属于热证，用茯苓琥珀汤通利；小便频数且量多，属于虚证，用山药、莲子肉、益智仁之类的药物收敛。（《六要》）
小便频数且清长色白属于虚寒，小便频数且量少、色黄赤、排尿涩痛属于热证，结合脉象洪数、有力无力、或滑或涩来综合参验，才不会出错。大凡夏天小便少，冬天小便多，这是寒热的道理，也很容易看见。（《赤水玄珠》）（按：应当参考《灵枢·五癃津液别论》。）
小便不禁：小便失禁，是因为肾气虚弱，下焦受冷。肾主水，其气向下通达于前阴。肾虚且下焦寒冷，不能温煦和控制水液，所以导致小便失禁。（《诸病源候论》）
下焦蓄血，如果是伴随虚劳内损，就会大小便自遗而不知晓；下焦虚寒，不能温煦控制水液，就会想要大小便而无法控制。这都是心肾之气不能交通的结果。（《直指方》）
治疗小便问题只宜根据形体和气机来诊治，小便失禁，是形气病变，轻者是膀胱中有痹阻，重者是元气虚衰且断绝。（《方考》）
“不禁”是指没有约束，小便多且频，不计较次数。按经文所说：“水泉不止者，是膀胱不藏也。”有湿热证，有下元虚惫证，频数且量少为热，频数且量多为虚，老年人多有此症，大概是阳气衰微，不能约束，我见过几个人，最终都不幸去世，是因为他们不能调养，导致神气耗散的原因。古人曾说，“不通”属热，“不禁”属寒，这是心肾气弱，阳道衰冷而导致传化失去法度。治法应当温补，温和地存养其神，用药石以坚固其肾，神完肾固，膀胱气充，自然可以约束，然而必须及早调治，或许能有三五成的痊愈希望。（《赤水玄珠》）
古方书在论述小便不禁时，有属于热证和属于寒证的辨析。不知道“不禁”的意思，是说小便太利，都属于虚寒，哪里有热证？如果是因为热而导致小便频数，那么应该是淋漓点滴不能禁止，而且排出又不畅快，或多疼痛涩滞，这不是遗失不禁的意思啊。倘若将虚寒误认为热，而妄投泻火之剂，岂不是危险吗？（《金匮翼》）（按：遗尿不禁为热邪客于肾经，《原病式》有此说法，而王氏《杂著》也认为是属热。《赤水》、《景岳》既然斥责其错误，而尤氏此言最为简练确切，所以摘录出来。另外《必读》提到肝家郁热导致小便不禁，得温补反而加剧，用龙胆泻肝汤加黄鸡肠治疗有效，这大概是该证的变证。）
凡是治疗小便不禁，古方多用固涩药，这固然应该，但固涩的药物，不过是固守门户，这也是治标的意思，而不是塞源之道。大概小水虽然利于肾，但肾上连肺，如果肺气没有权柄（宣降功能），那么肾水终究不能被摄纳，所以治水的人必须治气，治肾的人必须治肺。适宜用人参、当归、白术、肉桂、附子、干姜之类的药物作为主药，然后看时机加上固涩的药物作为辅佐，这样才能得到治水的方法，使源流有序，否则只是徒劳阻挡狂澜，最终没有益处。我制定了巩堤丸方进行治疗，无论涉及心、脾、肺、肾哪个脏腑，都适宜以此方为主治。（《景岳全书》）（按：巩堤丸用熟地黄、菟丝子、白术、五味子、益智仁、破故纸、附子、茯苓、韭菜子，山药糊为丸。）
因为先前患淋证，服用利尿药太多，导致小便不禁的，以人参、黄芪大补为主，稍加熟附子。（《六要》）
又有女性下关不闭，遇冷则小便频数，遇咳嗽则小便突然流出，这也属于不禁。（《医宗绳墨》）
遗尿尿床：遗尿，这是由于膀胱虚冷，不能约束水液所致。膀胱是足太阳经，肾是足少阴经，二经互为表里。肾主水，肾气向下通达于前阴，小便就是水液的残余。膀胱是津液的府库，府库既已虚冷，阳气衰弱，不能约束水液，所以导致遗尿。诊察脉搏，如果脉气超过寸口进入鱼际，会出现遗尿。肝脉微滑，出现遗尿。左手关上脉沉为阴，阴绝者无肝脉，苦于遗尿，尺脉实，小腹坚硬疼痛，小便不禁。尺中虚，小便不禁。肾病导致小便不禁，脉应当沉滑却反见浮大。面色应当黑却反见黄，这是土克水的逆证，不治。（《诸病源候论》）（按：此段关于脉象的描述，肝脉微滑出自《灵枢》，其他皆出自《脉经》，但尺中虚未考证。）
尿床的症状，人有在睡眠中不知不觉尿出的，是其禀赋阴气偏盛，阳气偏虚，则膀胱肾气俱冷，不能温煦控制水液，则小便多，或不禁而遗尿。膀胱是足太阳经，是肾的腑，肾是足少阴经是脏，与膀胱相合，共同主管水液。大凡人的阴阳，日落时阳气尽则阴气受气，到半夜阴阳大会，气交则入睡。小便就是水液的残余，从膀胱进入胞成为小便。夜间卧睡则阳气衰伏，不能制约阴气，所以阴气独发，水下不禁，所以在睡眠中不知不觉尿出。（同上）
排出而不能控制，称为遗尿。睡梦中自己流出，称为尿床。（《直指方·小儿》）
睡着遗尿，这也是下元冷、小便无约束所致，适宜用大菟丝子丸，猪膀胱炙碎煎汤送服。凡是遗尿都属于虚证，古书说：“实则失气，虚则遗尿。”有人因大喜导致小便多，日夜无度，这是喜极伤心，心与小肠互为表里，适宜用厘清饮、四七汤各半帖合煎，仍以辰砂妙香散，吞服小菟丝子丸或玄菟丹。（《济生拔粹》）
少壮年人遗尿，是下元热。热则有动其火，所以梦遗。遗精虽然流失但阳热盛，必然脉有力。治疗适宜清热。（《医宗绳墨》）（按：遗尿属热，《原病式》语意不明确，丹溪也有按语。难以作为标准，不予收录。）
肾主闭藏，肾虚则不能约束，所以不时遗出，中年人房事过度，多有此症。也有下部湿热太盛，逼迫水液妄行的，其人必嗜酒。夜间遗尿，少壮年责之于火，中年责之于虚。热则清之，用栀子、木通、茯苓等，虚则补之。（《六要》）
遗溺，就是遗失，睡梦中遗失，醒来后才发觉，儿童多有此症，大人少有。儿童阳气尚微弱，不太能约束，好动而魂游，所以夜间多遗失。古方多用暖药，是温养阳气的意思，经文说“虚则遗溺，不约为遗溺”，由此可知。曾见过几个人二三十岁，仍然遗尿不止，后来都没有子女，难道不是下元虚寒导致的吗？（《赤水玄珠》）（按：又说。刘河间、丹溪、《千金翼方》有认为是热的，必须以脉症参看，才没有偏热偏寒的弊病。我之前论述寒者，是以大概而言。诸病都有寒热虚实，多有始同终异，所以治法不能执一而无权变。此处引用《千金翼方》，应当考证。）
遗溺一证，有自遗的，是在睡梦中遗失。有不禁的，是因为气门不固而频数不能禁止。又有气脱于上，则下焦不约而遗失不觉的，这是虚极的征候。总之三者都属于虚证，只有轻重之分罢了。如果梦中自遗的，只有幼稚多有，等到其气壮而固，或少加调理可愈，不必怀疑。（《景岳全书》）
有睡觉就遗尿的，都责之于虚，所以婴儿脾气未固，老人下元不足，多有此证。在婴儿中挟热者十居七八，在老人中挟寒者十居七八，这又不可不辨别。（《医宗必读》）
午前数尿：有人每天从早到午前固定尿四次，一天之中又没有其他事情，这是肾虚所致，也就像脾肾泄，早泄而晚愈，次日又复发的情况一样。（《济生拔粹》）
小便余沥：肾主水。劳伤之人，肾气虚弱，不能藏水，胞内虚冷，所以小便后水液不止而有余沥。尺脉缓细者，是小便余沥。（《诸病源候论》）（按：《脉经》说：“尺脉缓，脚弱下肿，小便难，有余沥。”）

Various diseases of urination, excluding those involving strangury (Strangury) and turbid urine causing obstruction, are recorded here under the category of lower jiao (Lower Jiao) failure to control. They are analyzed and listed separately. However, the formulas used can be generally applicable, so they are not differentiated by specific syndromes.
**Excessive Urination Frequency and Volume:** Excessive urination frequency and volume is caused by deficiency-cold of the bladder and slipperiness of the urinary bladder organ. The Kidney is a Zang organ, and the Bladder is its Fu organ; they are exterior-interior pairs, both governing water metabolism, with Kidney Qi extending downward to the external genitalia. Since the Fu organ is deficient and cold, it cannot warm its corresponding Zang organ, resulting in white and abundant urine. If nocturia is particularly severe at night, it is due to the generation of internal Yin pathogenic factors. (*Zhu Bing Yuan Hou Lun*)
Excessive urination frequency and volume results from deficiency-cold of the lower origin (Lower Origin), where the Kidney fails to secure water, leading to leakage and excretion. Suitable formulas include Tusizi Wan (Cuscuta Seed Pill), Bawei Wan (Eight-Ingredient Pill), Xuantu Dan (Black Cuscuta Elixir), and Shengliao Lurong Wan (Unprocessed Deer Antler Pill). (*Jisheng Baci*) [Note: *Liuyao* adds: I observe that if Kidney Qi cannot secure water, descending exceeds ascending; only major tonification can help, and Ginseng, Cinnamon Twig, and Aconite Root are appropriate.]
**Frequent Urination:** Frequent urination occurs because both the Bladder and Kidney are deficient, allowing guest-heat (Guest Heat) to take advantage of this weakness. The Kidney and Bladder are exterior-interior pairs, both governing water, with Kidney Qi extending downward to the external genitalia. Having become deficient, these two meridians are susceptible to guest-heat. Deficiency leads to an inability to control water, causing frequency. Heat in the urine causes sluggish flow; sluggishness leads to discomfort during urination, resulting in frequent urges. (*Zhu Bing Yuan Hou Lun*)
Xu Renze discusses two types of this disease: First, frequent urination accompanied by thirst, increased appetite, gradual muscle wasting, fatigue, and poor complexion; this is Xiao Ke (Wasting and Thirsting Syndrome). Second, frequent urination but not necessarily excessive volume, no thirst, normal diet, or slightly increased urination upon exposure to cold weather, with no other symptoms; this is caused by deficiency-cold. Generally, both conditions stem from Cold of Kidney Qi and the Bladder. If untreated, they can be fatal. Kidney deficiency with cold waist poses less danger. (*Waitai Miyao*)
If there is constant urgency with frequent voiding but small volumes each time, followed by renewed urgency without dysuria or pain, it is not Strangury. Sometimes, shortly after finishing urination, one feels empty but then passes a small amount again; this is often due to holding urine or engaging in sexual activity while holding urine. Suitable treatment is Shengliao Wuling San (Raw Five-Ling Powder), reducing Ze Xie by half, adding one qian of Ejiao (Donkey-Hide Gelatin), taken with Bawei Wan. This pill must contain Wuweizi (Schisandra Berry). (*Jisheng Baci*)
Frequency with small volume indicates Heat; treat with Fuling Hupo Tang (Poria and Amber Decoction) to promote diuresis. Frequency with large volume indicates Deficiency; treat with herbs like Shanyao (Dioscorea Rhizome), Lianrou (Lotus Seed Endosperm), and Yizhiren (Bitter Apricot Seed) to astringe. (*Liuyao*)
Frequent urination with clear, long stream indicates Deficiency-Cold; frequent urination with small volume, yellow-red color, and dysuria indicates Heat. Corroborate with pulse diagnosis (surging and rapid, forceful or forceless, slippery or choppy) to avoid errors. Generally, summer has less urine, winter has more; this reflects the principles of Cold and Heat. (*Chishui Xuanzhu*) [Note: Refer to *Ling Shu: Wu Long Jin Ye Bie Lun*.]
**Urinary Incontinence:** Urinary incontinence is caused by Kidney Qi deficiency and Cold in the lower jiao. The Kidney governs water, with its Qi extending downward to the external genitalia. Kidney deficiency and lower jiao cold prevent the warming and controlling of fluids, leading to incontinence. (*Zhu Bing Yuan Hou Lun*)
Blood stasis in the lower jiao, combined with chronic deficiency damage, leads to involuntary passage of urine and feces without awareness. Lower jiao deficiency-cold, failing to warm and control fluids, leads to inability to restrain the urge to urinate. Both result from the Heart and Kidney failing to communicate. (*Zhizhi Fang*)
Treatment of urination disorders should focus on form and Qi. Incontinence is a disorder of form and Qi: mild cases involve Bi obstruction in the bladder; severe cases involve collapse of Great Qi. (*Fangkao*)
"Incontinence" means lack of restraint, with frequent and abundant urination regardless of count. The classics state: "Unceasing urine indicates the Bladder fails to store." Causes include Damp-Heat and exhaustion of the lower origin. Frequency with small volume is Heat; frequency with large volume is Deficiency. Elderly people often suffer from this due to declining Yang Qi and inability to constrain. I have seen several cases ending fatally due to lack of self-care and dissipation of Shen (Spirit). Ancients said: "Obstruction is Heat; Incontinence is Cold." This stems from weak Heart-Kidney Qi, declining Yang Dao, and loss of transformation rules. Treatment requires warming and tonifying, nurturing Shen gently, and using medicine to strengthen the Kidney. When Shen is complete and Kidney solid, Bladder Qi fills and restraint returns. Early treatment is crucial for any chance of recovery. (*Chishui Xuanzhu*)
Ancient texts debate whether incontinence is Heat or Cold. However, "incontinence" implies excessive free passage, belonging to Deficiency-Cold, not Heat. If Heat causes frequency, it presents as dribbling, difficulty passing, pain, or dysuria, which differs from incontinence. Mistaking Deficiency-Cold for Heat and using fire-draining formulas is dangerous. (*Jinkui Yi*) [Note: *Yuanbing Shi* and Wang Shi's *Zazhe* attribute incontinence to Heat. *Chishui* and Jingyue refute this. You Shi's view is concise and accurate, so it is cited. *Bidu* mentions Liver Depression-Heat causing incontinence worsening with warming tonics, treated successfully with Longdan Xiegan Tang plus Huangjichang, representing a variant syndrome.]
Generally, ancient formulas use astringents for incontinence, which is appropriate but treats the branch, not the root. Astringents merely close the gate. Water metabolism involves the Kidney and Lung; if Lung Qi lacks authority, Kidney Water cannot be secured. Thus, treating water requires treating Qi, and treating the Kidney requires treating the Lung. Use Ginseng, Danggui (Angelica Sinensis), Baizhu (Atractylodes Macrocephala), Guizhi (Cinnamon Twig), Fuzi (Aconite Root), Ganjiang (Dried Ginger) as main ingredients, then add astringents as auxiliaries according to circumstances. Otherwise, trying to stop the flood is futile. My Gongdi Wan (Gongdi Pill) is suitable for all cases involving Heart, Spleen, Lung, or Kidney. (*Jingyue Quanshu*) [Note: Gongdi Wan contains Shudihuang (Rehmannia Root), Tusizi (Cuscuta Seed), Baizhu (Atractylodes Macrocephala), Wuweizi (Schisandra Berry), Yizhiren (Bitter Apricot Seed), Poguozhi (Psoralea Fruit), Fuzi (Aconite Root), Fuling (Poria), Jiucai Zi (Leek Seed), formed into pills with Yam paste.]
For incontinence caused by overuse of diuretics for prior strangury, use Ginseng and Huangqi (Astragalus Root) for major tonification, with a little Shufuzi (Prepared Aconite Root). (*Liuyao*)
In women, laxity of the lower orifice causes frequency when cold and sudden urination when coughing, also classified as incontinence. (*Yizong Shengmo*)
**Enuresis and Bedwetting:** Enuresis is caused by deficiency-cold of the Bladder, unable to constrain water. The Bladder is the Foot-Taiyang Meridian, and the Kidney is the Foot-Shaoyin Meridian; they are exterior-interior pairs. The Kidney governs water, with Qi extending to the external genitalia; urine is the residue of body fluids. The Bladder is the repository of fluids. Deficiency-cold and weak Yang Qi lead to enuresis. Pulse diagnosis: Pulse exceeding Cun entering Yuji indicates enuresis. Slightly slippery Liver pulse indicates enuresis. Deep Yin pulse at Left Guan indicates absence of Liver pulse, suffering from enuresis. Solid Chi pulse with lower abdominal pain indicates incontinence. Deficient Chi pulse indicates incontinence. Kidney disease with incontinence should show deep-slippery pulse but shows floating-large instead. Complexion should be black but appears yellow; this is Earth overcoming Water, a counter-indication, untreatable. (*Zhu Bing Yuan Hou Lun*) [Note: Pulse descriptions: Liver pulse slightly slippery from *Ling Shu*, others from *Mai Jing*. Chi deficiency unverified.]
Bedwetting symptom: Individuals sleeping and unknowingly wetting themselves have constitutionally excess Yin and deficient Yang. Bladder and Kidney Qi are cold, failing to warm/control water, leading to abundance or incontinence. Bladder (Foot-Taiyang) is the Fu of Kidney (Foot-Shaoyin); together they govern water. At sunset, Yang ends, Yin receives Qi. At midnight, Yin and Yang meet, Qi intersects, inducing sleep. Urine is fluid residue entering the bladder. During sleep, Yang declines, failing to control Yin, so Yin dominates, water flows uncontrollably, causing bedwetting. (*Ibid.*)
Loss of control is called Enuresis. Self-discharge during sleep is called Bedwetting. (*Zhizhi Fang · Pediatrics*)
Sleeping enuresis is due to lower origin cold and lack of constraint. Treat with Da Tusizi Wan (Large Cuscuta Seed Pill), taken with decoction of roasted pig bladder. All enuresis belongs to Deficiency. Classics say: "Excess leads to flatus; Deficiency leads to enuresis." Extreme joy damages the Heart; Heart and Small Intestine are exterior-interior. Treat with Liqing Yin and Siqi Tang mixed, taken with Chen Sha Miaoxiang San and Xiaotusizi Wan or Xuantu Dan. (*Jisheng Baci*)
Enuresis in young adults indicates lower origin Heat. Heat agitates Fire, causing nocturnal emission. Although loss occurs, Yang-Heat is strong and pulse is forceful. Treatment requires clearing Heat. (*Yizong Shengmo*) [Note: *Yuanbing Shi* and Danxi have unclear views on Heat-type enuresis; not recorded as standard.]
Kidney governs closure. Kidney deficiency leads to lack of constraint and spontaneous leakage. Middle-aged people with excessive sexual activity often have this. Also, excessive Damp-Heat in the lower jiao forcing water to flow recklessly occurs in alcoholics. Nocturnal enuresis in youth is blamed on Fire; in middle age, on Deficiency. Clear Heat with Zhizi (Gardenia Fruit), Mutong (Akebia Stem), Fuling (Poria); Tonify Deficiency. (*Liuyao*)
Enuresis is loss during sleep, realized upon waking. Common in children, rare in adults. Children have weak Yang and poor constraint, active spirits, leading to night losses. Ancient formulas use warming herbs to nourish Yang. Classics say: "Deficiency leads to enuresis, lack of constraint leads to enuresis." I saw adults aged 20-30 with persistent enuresis who had no children; likely due to lower origin deficiency-cold. (*Chishui Xuanzhu*) [Note: Liu Hejian, Danxi, and *Qianjin Yifang* attribute some cases to Heat. Pulse and symptoms must be correlated to avoid bias. My previous discussion focused on Cold as the general rule. Diseases vary in Cold/Heat/Deficiency/Excess and start/end differently; treatments must be flexible. Reference *Qianjin Yifang* for verification.]
Enuresis includes spontaneous loss during sleep, incontinence due to insecure Qi gates, and loss due to upper Qi collapse causing lower jiao unconstraint. These are extreme Deficiency signs. Spontaneous dream loss is mostly in children; resolve with growth and minor regulation. (*Jingyue Quanshu*)
Bedwetting is always blamed on Deficiency. Infants have unstable Spleen Qi; elderly have insufficient lower origin. Infants often have accompanying Heat (70-80%); elderly often have accompanying Cold (70-80%). Differentiation is essential. (*Yizong Bidu*)
**Morning Frequent Urination:** Some individuals urinate four times daily until noon, otherwise asymptomatic. This is due to Kidney Deficiency, similar to Spleen-Kidney diarrhea occurring early and resolving late, recurring the next day. (*Jisheng Baci*)
**Post-void Dribbling:** The Kidney governs water. Fatigue injury weakens Kidney Qi, preventing water storage. Cold in the bladder organ causes post-void dribbling. Slow and fine Chi pulse indicates post-void dribbling. (*Zhu Bing Yuan Hou Lun*) [Note: *Mai Jing*: "Slow Chi pulse, weak legs, lower edema, difficult urination, dribbling."]
