【大意】
破伤风是由于伤口受到邪气侵袭。病邪沿经络传播。导致营气和卫气不能宣通。郁结之气遍布全身。热势亢盛而生风,从而表现出风的症状。(出自《医统》)
【内因】
轻微的破损被视为寻常小事。突然遭遇风邪。逐渐演变为严重的病症。有的因为疮口未愈合。疏于调理。而被风邪乘虚侵入。有的因为肉芽容易生长。疮口迅速闭合。导致邪气无法宣泄。热极生风。或者因为清洗过多。或者因为艾灸灼烧。导致热毒妄行。趁身体虚弱向内攻伐。(出自《汇补》)
【外候】
凡是金属利器造成的创伤部位。出现肿胀闷胀且无汗的。属于中风(此处指外风侵袭)。边缘流出黄水的。属于中水(湿邪)。并且想要发作。病位在表。出现寒战、频繁打哈欠、摇头、斜视、角弓反张、筋脉拘挛紧急的。属于中寒。寒热交替发作、涎唾稠粘的。属于病邪入里。舌体僵硬、惊恐不安、牙关紧闭、咬切牙齿、胸膈满塞、小便浑浊、大便干涩难通的。属于病邪入阴。身体发凉、自汗、伤口反而凹陷的。是毒瓦斯向内走窜。(出自《汇补》)
【破伤重症】
起初虽然在表。很快便传入里。不像伤寒那样郁热不解而慢慢传里。只是伤寒时气血尚未耗损。邪气传入较缓。此症气血向外亡失。内部已经空虚。邪气传入非常迅速。比伤寒更严重。(出自《汇补》)
【死症】
如果头面部呈现青黑色。短时间内多次发作。出汗如雨珠般滴落。脉象散乱无根。这是邪气入脏。主死。另外。疼痛不在伤口处。而在经络处的。主死。还有。服用发汗药后。前面的症状不退。伤口不隆起。意识时而清醒时而昏迷。病情时发时止。牙关紧闭不开。声音发不出来的。最终都是死候。(出自《汇补》)
【脉法】
脉浮而无力。属于太阳经证。脉长而有力。属于阳明经证。脉弦小而急。属于少阳经证。(出自《医统》)
【治法】
治疗分为汗法、下法、和解法三种。初见表证。宜用辛热药物治疗风邪。冲开结滞。邪气在半表半里。宜用和解法兼以祛除风邪。邪气传入里证。宜用寒凉药物泻下郁热。如果伤口出血过多。又不可专门执着于汗法和下法。以免使营血更加亏损。宜用滋阴养血法。仍配合按摩引导。不要让患者牙关紧闭。(出自《汇补》)
【用药】
表证无汗。用羌活防风汤。表虚自汗。用白术防风汤。半表半里证。寒热不止的。用小柴胡汤加蝉蜕、荆芥。里证便秘的。用大芎黄汤。里证抽搐的。用江漂丸。表里俱实的。用防风通圣散。营血虚的。用当归地黄汤。邪入阴分的。其毒内走。用万灵丹发汗。令风邪外出。随后用玉真散贴敷患处。出脓为有效。如果伤口不起发。外症不退的。危险。

[General Principle]
Wind-stroke from injury (Po Shang Feng) occurs when pathogenic factors invade the wound site. The pathogens spread through the meridians, causing Ying Qi (Nutritive Qi) and Wei Qi (Defensive Qi) to fail in their free circulation. Stagnant Qi spreads throughout the body; excessive heat generates wind, resulting in wind-like symptoms. (From *Yi Tong*)
[Etiology]
Minor wounds are often regarded as trivial. However, sudden exposure to wind pathogens can gradually transform into severe conditions. Some cases arise because the wound has not healed and lacks proper care, allowing wind pathogens to take advantage of the deficiency. Others occur because granulation tissue grows easily, causing the wound to close rapidly, preventing the expulsion of pathogens, leading to extreme heat that generates wind. Additionally, excessive washing or moxibustion burning may cause heat toxins to act recklessly, attacking internally while taking advantage of bodily weakness. (From *Hui Bu*)
[External Manifestations]
For any metal-injury wound site: swelling, stuffiness, and absence of sweating indicate invasion by external wind. Yellow fluid oozing from the edges indicates invasion by water-dampness. Both suggest impending onset with the pathology located in the exterior. Shivering, frequent yawning, head shaking, oblique gaze, opisthotonos, and tendon spasm indicate invasion by cold. Alternating chills and fever, along with thick and sticky saliva, indicate the pathogen has entered the interior. A stiff tongue, frightfulness, locked jaw, teeth grinding, chest fullness, turbid urine, and constipation indicate the pathogen has entered the Yin level. Cool body temperature, spontaneous sweating, and a sunken wound site indicate the toxic vapors are moving inward. (From *Hui Bu*)
[Severe Cases of Wind-Stroke from Injury]
Although initially in the exterior, the pathogen quickly enters the interior. This differs from Cold Damage (*Shang Han*), where unresolved constrained heat transmits to the interior slowly. In Cold Damage, Qi and Blood are not yet depleted, so the pathogen enters slowly. In this condition, Qi and Blood are lost outwardly, leaving the interior empty, so the pathogen enters very rapidly, making it more severe than Cold Damage. (From *Hui Bu*)
[Fatal Signs]
If the face and head turn blue-black, with multiple attacks within a short time, sweating like pearls, and a scattered pulse without root, indicating the pathogen has entered the Zang organs, death ensues. Also, if pain is not at the wound site but in the meridians, death ensues. Furthermore, if after administering diaphoretic medicines the previous symptoms do not subside, the wound does not rise, consciousness fluctuates between clarity and coma, symptoms come and go intermittently, the jaw remains locked, and no voice can be produced, these are ultimately fatal signs. (From *Hui Bu*)
[Pulse Diagnosis]
A floating and weak pulse indicates the Tai Yang stage. A long and forceful pulse indicates the Yang Ming stage. A wiry, small, and rapid pulse indicates the Shao Yang stage. (From *Yi Tong*)
[Therapeutic Methods]
Treatment is divided into three methods: diaphoresis (sweating), purgation, and harmonizing. For initial exterior symptoms, acrid-warm herbs should be used to treat wind and break up stagnation. If the pathogen is in the half-exterior/half-interior, harmonizing methods combined with dispelling wind pathogens should be used. For interior symptoms, cool/cold herbs should be used to purge constrained heat. If there has been excessive bleeding from the wound, one must not rely solely on diaphoresis or purgation, lest Ying Blood become further depleted. Instead, nourish Yin and tonify Blood, while still employing massage and guidance techniques, ensuring the jaw does not lock. (From *Hui Bu*)
[Medication]
For exterior symptoms with no sweat: Qiang Huo Fang Feng Tang. For exterior deficiency with spontaneous sweating: Bai Zhu Fang Feng Tang. For half-exterior/half-interior symptoms with unceasing chills and fever: Xiao Chai Hu Tang added with Cicada Slough (*Chan Tui*) and Schizonepeta (*Jing Jie*). For interior symptoms with constipation: Da Xiong Huang Tang. For interior symptoms with spasms: Jiang Piao Wan. For excess in both exterior and interior: Fang Feng Tong Sheng San. For deficiency of Ying Blood: Dang Gui Di Huang Tang. For pathogens entering the Yin aspect, where toxicity moves inward: use Wan Ling Dan to induce sweating, expelling wind pathogens outward, followed by applying Yu Zhen San to the affected area. Suppuration indicates efficacy. If the wound fails to rise and external symptoms persist, the prognosis is critical.
