肩臂冷痛:凡是肩臂感到冷痛的人,每当遇到风寒时,肩膀部位往往特别寒冷,白天必须用热手抚摸,夜晚需要多盖被子才能勉强支撑。这是由于阳气不足、气血衰弱所致。如果不预先进行治疗,恐怕会由此引发中风偏瘫等病症。应当艾灸肩髃穴和肩髎穴两个穴位,方可避免这种祸患。因为肩髃穴关系到双手的安危,环跳穴关系到双足的安危,这两个穴位不可不灸。病情轻者灸七壮,风寒严重者灸十四壮,或者分两三次施灸。但灸量不可过多,以免导致手臂肌肉萎缩变细。如果艾灸环跳穴,则四五十壮也无妨。
臂痛且无法抬起:取肩井穴、肩髃穴、曲池穴、渊液穴、曲泽穴(主治手臂肘部牵掣疼痛)、后溪穴(主治项强及肘痛)、太渊穴(主治手腕痛)、阳谷穴(主治手膊疼痛)。
受湿邪导致手足拘挛:取曲池穴、尺泽穴、腕骨穴、外关穴、中渚穴、五虎穴(位于手背食指与无名指之间,本节前骨尖上各有一穴,握拳取之,主治手指拘挛)。

膝部风邪肿痛:取足三里穴、阳陵泉穴、阴陵泉穴、太冲穴、昆仑穴。

Cold Pain in Shoulders and Arms: Individuals suffering from cold pain in the shoulders and arms often find their shoulder areas particularly cold when exposed to wind-cold. They require rubbing with warm hands during the day and covering with extra blankets at night to endure it. This condition arises from deficiency of Yang Qi and decline of Qi and Blood.
