温病热病之脉。或见浮紧者。乃重感不正之暴寒。寒邪束于外。热邪结于内。故其
脉外绷急而内洪盛也。或不识脉形。但见弦脉。便呼为紧而妄治之。盖脉之盛而
有力者。每每兼弦。岂可错认为紧而误以为寒乎。夫温热病之脉。多在肌肉之分。
而不甚浮。且右手反盛于左手者。诚由怫郁在内故也。其左手盛或浮者。必有重
感于风寒。否则非温热病。自是非时暴寒耳。
温热病亦有先见表证。而后见里证者。盖怫郁自内达外。热郁腠理之时。若不用
辛凉发散。则邪不得外泄。遂还里而成可攻之证。非如伤寒从表而始也。或有不
悟此理。乃于春夏温热病而求浮紧之脉。不亦疏乎。

温热病与热病的脉象，有时表现为浮紧。这是由于再次感受了强烈的不正之气——暴寒所致。寒邪束缚于体表，热邪郁结于体内，因此脉象外部绷急而内部洪大旺盛。如果不辨识脉形，仅仅见到弦脉，就称之为紧脉并妄加治疗，这是错误的。因为脉象盛大而有力量时，往往兼带弦象，怎能错误地认为是紧脉而误判为寒证呢？温热病的脉象，多位于肌肉层次，并不十分浮显，且右手脉往往强于左手脉，这确实是因为热邪郁结在体内的缘故。如果左手脉盛或浮，则必定是再次感受了风寒之邪；否则，这就不是温热病，而是非时之暴寒罢了。
温热病也有先出现表证，随后出现里证的情况。这是因为郁热自内向外透发，当热邪郁结在腠理之时，若不使用辛凉发散的方法，邪气就无法向外宣泄，从而退回体内形成可以攻下的实证。这与伤寒病从体表开始不同。或者有人不理解这个道理，在春夏季节的温热病中寻求浮紧的脉象，这不是太疏忽了吗？

The pulse of warm-heat disease (Wenbing) and heat disease (Rebing) may sometimes appear floating-tight (Fu Jin). This is due to a secondary contraction of severe, pathogenic cold (Bao Han). The cold pathogen binds the exterior, while the heat pathogen knots within, resulting in a pulse that is tense and urgent on the outside and surging and vigorous on the inside. If one fails to distinguish the pulse form and merely sees a string-like pulse (Xian Mai), calling it tight and treating it recklessly, this is an error. For when a pulse is full and forceful, it often accompanies a string-like quality; how can it be mistaken for a tight pulse and misdiagnosed as a cold syndrome? The pulse of warm-heat diseases mostly resides at the muscle level and is not very superficial. Moreover, the right-hand pulse is often stronger than the left-hand pulse, which is indeed due to the depression of heat within. If the left-hand pulse is strong or floating, it must be due to a secondary contraction of wind-cold; otherwise, it is not a warm-heat disease but rather non-seasonal sudden cold.
Warm-heat diseases may also present with exterior symptoms first, followed by interior symptoms. This is because the depressed heat expands from the interior to the exterior. When heat is depressed in the interstices (Cou Li), if acrid-cool dispersing methods are not used, the pathogen cannot vent outward and will retreat inward, forming a syndrome suitable for purgation. This differs from Taiyang disease (Shanghan), which begins at the exterior. Or perhaps some do not understand this principle, seeking a floating-tight pulse in warm-heat diseases during spring and summer; is this not too negligent?
