痧疹俗称麻子。这是因为火热之邪熏蒸所致，全身出现如朱砂点状的红斑。病位发自心经和脾经。最忌讳出现黑斑的死证，极宜表现为赤红如朱纹的色泽。大抵治疗原则喜欢清凉清解，不可使用辛甘温燥的药物以免触犯禁忌。
如何辨认麻疹？症状分明类似伤寒，但多伴有咳嗽、红斑，打喷嚏，眼中流泪，或者见到腹痛，或者吐泻同时发生。对于出疹患儿，吐泻不必急于止住，正是要借吐泻使毒邪排出、热势消散。
麻疹与痘疮治疗方法不同，二者不可用同一方剂。痘疮适宜温性发散，麻疹适宜清凉清解，且以透发出来为最佳。如果因受风寒导致疹出不畅，其间凶险难以抵挡。此时急需发散透疹以保平安，切忌出现神志昏沉、腹部胀满的症状。
麻疹为何引起咳嗽？只因肺与心相通。肺金被火邪煎熬，以致咳嗽气喘。治疗应当清肃肺气、降泄火邪，不宜误用辛甘温补之药。这就像包子在蒸笼里蒸一样，只要气机通畅、火力温和即可。
凡是遇到麻疹出现，要详细观察时令气候如何。假如天气温暖又和风，荆防败毒散比较合适。如果是时行疫疠之气，芩连消毒饮则更为适宜。用心调理以挽救危重病人，不要像旁观者那样坐视不管。
再说荆防败毒散，这是发散的仙方。由防风、荆芥、生地黄、酒炒黄芩、黄连二味组成，加上赤茯苓、干葛根、灯心草、连翘、枳壳、牛蒡子、元参、杏仁，确实良效。用淡竹叶煎汤服用。
又有芩连消毒饮，清肃肺气、疏散火邪尤其佳妙。由黄芩、黄连、防风及栀子仁、黄柏、枳壳、地骨皮共同组成，加上石膏、干葛根、知母、连翘、牛蒡子、天花粉。引用淡竹叶需多加。这个方子价值很高。
如果发散不出，令人真正担忧疑虑。可用麻黄、蜂蜜炒至如煤色，栀子仁、黄柏、黄芩、黄连同等用量。再加黄酒炒大黄，连翘、牛蒡子相随。若加石膏、蝉蜕、红花子，仍不生效，性命难保。
如见皮疹发出时呈紫黑色，这般证候大多凶险。急求路旁人粪，存性取用，细研后用酒调服吞下。片刻间紫黑色变为红色。如果依旧黑蒙蒙，必定是一梦成空（死亡）。
麻疹现形发热，寻常只用化斑汤。由石膏、栀子仁及元参、枳壳、连翘、牛蒡子组成，灵验有效。若是毒多热甚，以芩连消毒饮为先。大便秘结可添入牵牛子，务必使大便微溏数次。
麻疹证频繁出现咽痛，是火邪熏灼所致，无他法。连翘、豆根要多加，射干、牛蒡子煎服。外用十宣妙散（见第八十八条），吹喉不要犹豫叹息。假如见效没有差错，芩连消毒饮值得夸赞。
咳嗽声声气促，只需降火清金。黄芩、栀子、赤茯苓、葶苈子、石膏一定需要。知母、贝母、元参、地骨皮、栝楼仁、麦冬、杏仁，配合连翘、牛蒡子妙如神明。用淡竹叶作为引经药（另一书有黄连）。
麻疹证若兼泻痢，预先用药调理医治。泻时须用三苓散（见第三十七条）为宜，加上车前子、滑石。如见痢疾兼赤白脓血，加减黄芩汤（见第七十二条）相随。大都痢止便为奇迹，若不生效令人怀疑忌惮。
麻疹后须防范四种证候，不治常致误人。遍身余热未清宁（证一），咳嗽连声牵引（证二），牙齿疳生走马牙疳（证三），痢下赤白难禁（证四）。各求方法细细论评，才是麻疹科医圣。
问什么身上壮热？只因余毒留连。金华丸子是灵丹。由栀子仁、黄芩、黄连、龙胆草、郁金、雄黄解毒，灯芯、地骨皮汤送服。若还脾弱热绵延，集圣丸、胃芩渴任选。
集圣丸由当归、川芎、芦荟、五灵脂、夜明砂、砂仁、青皮、莪术组成，加黄连酒炙虾蟆（即蛤蜊），猪胆汁粟米粉糊丸。清晨米饮吞下。治疳积肥儿功效最大。这个丸儿值得夸赞。
平胃散与五苓散相合，方名曰胃苓汤。苍术、茯苓、肉桂与猪苓，陈皮、浓朴、泽泻分明。白术须宜生用，去肉桂甘草煎成。浮肿泄泻食积停，人口效应如神。
咳嗽频频不止，是因为不禁酸咸，又加火毒肺家炎，尤恐胸高气喘。体实却用葶苈丸，神虚清肺神丹。如斯调理保平安，莫向风波弄险。
葶苈丸除肺热，由杏仁、葶苈子、防己、牵牛、莱菔子相随，红枣肉捣成为剂。清肺神丹降气，盐水煮焙陈皮，黄芩、黄连、栀仁、黄柏、杏仁泥、苏子稀糊丸易制。
口齿生疮臭烂，此名走马牙疳。金华丸子内求安，外用除疳妙散。先取桶中尿白，火锻白色如盐，五倍子、铜绿、蜕壳蚕（即蚕蜕纸），再加硼砂、冰片。
赤痢下成鲜血，用黄连、柏叶、槐花，枳壳、荆芥穗同加，痢止血除才罢。白痢用茱萸、滑石，樗根、枳壳、升麻，乌梅取肉作丸佳，赤白香连丸可下。
香连丸又名香橘，五钱木香、陈皮，石莲子取肉半数宜（等分用止一半），一两黄连另制。外将茱萸五钱，同黄连炒而用之，炒后去茱萸勿同施，神曲糊丸吞饵。

Sha zhen (Rubeola/Measles), commonly known as Ma zi, is caused by the steaming and薰蒸 of fire-heat. It manifests as red spots resembling cinnabar dots all over the body. The pathology originates from the Heart Meridian and Spleen Meridian. The most feared sign is black macules indicating a fatal condition; ideally, the rash should appear bright red like vermilion patterns. Generally, the treatment principle favors cooling and clearing, avoiding acrid-sweet warm-drying herbs to prevent contraindications.
How to identify measles? The symptoms clearly resemble Taiyang Cold Damage (Shanghan), but are accompanied by coughing, red macules, sneezing, watery eyes, or abdominal pain, or simultaneous vomiting and diarrhea. For patients with measles, vomiting and diarrhea need not be forcibly stopped; rather, they help expel toxins and dissipate heat.
The treatment for measles differs from that for smallpox; they cannot share the same formula. Smallpox requires warm dispersal, while measles requires cooling and clearing, with successful eruption being paramount. If wind-cold prevents eruption, the situation becomes perilous. Urgent dispersal is needed to ensure safety, strictly avoiding coma and abdominal distension.
Why does measles cause coughing? Because the Lung connects with the Heart. Lung Metal is tormented by fire-heat, leading to cough and asthma. Treatment should clear Lung Qi and descend fire, avoiding acrid-sweet tonics. It is like steaming buns: only smooth Qi flow and moderate heat are required.
When measles appears, observe the seasonal climate. If the weather is warm and gentle, Jing Fang Bai Du San is suitable. If it is an epidemic season, Qin Lian Xiao Du Yin is preferred. Careful management saves critical patients; do not sit idly by.
Jing Fang Bai Du San is a miraculous formula for dispersal. It contains Fang Feng, Jing Jie, Sheng Di Huang, wine-fried Huang Qin, Huang Lian, Chi Fu Ling, Ge Gen, Deng Xin Cao, Lian Qiao, Zhi Ke, Niu Bang Zi, Yuan Shen, and Xing Ren. Decoct with Dan Zhu Ye.
Qin Lian Xiao Du Yin clears Lung Qi and scatters fire-heat excellently. It consists of Huang Qin, Huang Lian, Fang Feng, Zhi Zi Ren, Huang Bo, Zhi Ke, Gu Pi, Shi Gao, Ge Gen, Zhi Mu, Lian Qiao, Niu Bang Zi, and Tian Hua Fen. Use extra Dan Zhu Ye as a guide. This formula is highly valuable.
If eruption fails, causing anxiety, use Ma Huang fried with honey until coal-black, along with equal parts Zhi Zi Ren, Huang Bo, Huang Qin, and Huang Lian. Add Da Huang fried in wine, followed by Lian Qiao and Niu Bang Zi. Add Shi Gao, Chan Tui, and Hong Hua Zi. If ineffective, death is imminent.
If the rash turns purple-black, the prognosis is ominous. Seek roadside human feces, preserve its nature by calcination, grind finely, and take with wine. The color should turn red quickly. If it remains black, death is certain.
For fever during eruption, use Hua Ban Tang normally. It contains Shi Gao, Zhi Zi Ren, Yuan Shen, Zhi Ke, Lian Qiao, and Niu Bang Zi. If toxin load and heat are severe, prioritize Qin Lian Xiao Du Yin. For constipation, add Qiu Niu Zi to achieve mild loose stools several times.
Frequent sore throat in measles is due to fire-heat scorching. Increase Lian Qiao and Dou Gen, decoct with She Gan and Niu Bang Zi. Apply Shi Xuan Miao San externally to the throat. If effective, Qin Lian Xiao Du Yin is praiseworthy.
For persistent coughing and shortness of breath, descend fire and clear Lung. Use Huang Qin, Zhi Zi, Chi Fu Ling, Ting Li Zi, and Shi Gao. Combine Zhi Mu, Bei Mu, Yuan Shen, Di Gu Pi, Gua Lou Ren, Mai Dong, Xing Ren, Lian Qiao, and Niu Bang Zi. Use Dan Zhu Ye as a guide (some texts add Huang Lian).
If measles is complicated by diarrhea or dysentery, treat proactively. For diarrhea, use San Ling San plus Che Qian Zi and Hua Shi. For bloody/purulent dysentery, use modified Huang Qin Tang. Cessation of dysentery is a miracle; failure causes doubt.
After measles, guard against four conditions: residual heat (1), persistent cough (2), gan disease of teeth/mouth (3), and uncontrollable bloody dysentery (4). Evaluate methods carefully to become a master of measles treatment.
High fever is due to lingering residual toxin. Jin Hua Wan is a spiritual pill containing Zhi Zi Ren, Huang Qin, Huang Lian, Long Dan Cao, Yu Jin, and Xiong Huang. Take with Deng Xin and Di Gu Pi decoction. For weak Spleen with lingering heat, choose Ji Sheng Wan, Wei Qin Ke, or others.
Ji Sheng Wan contains Dang Gui, Chuan Xiong, Lu Hui, Wu Ling Zhi, Ye Ming Sha, Sha Ren, Qing Pi, E Zhu, wine-fried Huang Lian, and Toad (or Clam) liver. Form pills with Pig Gallbladder and Millet Flour. Take with rice water in the morning. It is best for treating gan disease and nourishing children.
Wei Ling Tang combines Ping Wei San and Wu Ling San. It contains Cang Zhu, Fu Ling, Rou Gui, Zhu Ling, Chen Pi, Hou Po, Ze Xie, raw Bai Zhu, and Gan Cao (remove Rou Gui). It treats edema, diarrhea, and food stagnation effectively.
Persistent cough is due to intolerance of sour/salty foods and lung fire-toxin, fearing chest fullness and asthma. For excess patterns, use Ting Li Wan; for deficiency patterns, use Qing Fei Shen Dan. Manage carefully to avoid danger.
Ting Li Wan clears Lung heat with Xing Ren, Ting Li Zi, Fang Ji, Qian Niu, and Lai Fu Zi, formed into pills with Red Dates. Qing Fei Shen Dan descends Qi using Chen Pi, Huang Qin, Huang Lian, Zhi Zi Ren, Huang Bo, Xing Ren Ni, and Su Zi.
Bad breath and rotting gums indicate Zou Ma Ya Gan. Internally use Jin Hua Wan; externally apply Chu Gan Miao San. Use urine sediment calcined white, Wu Bei Zi, Tong Lv, Can Tui, Peng Sha, and Bing Pian.
For bloody dysentery, use Huang Lian, Bai Ye, Huai Hua, Zhi Ke, and Jing Jie Sui. For white dysentery, use Zhu Yu, Hua Shi, Chu Gen, Zhi Ke, Sheng Ma, and W Mei pills. For mixed red/white, use Xiang Lian Wan.
Xiang Lian Wan (also called Xiang Ju) contains Mu Xiang, Chen Pi, Shi Lian Zi, and Huang Lian. Stir-fry Zhu Yu with Huang Lian, remove Zhu Yu, and form pills with Shen Qu.
Measles appearing after smallpox requires clearing Lung; dispersal and tonification are wrong. Use Huang Qin, Sang Bai Pi, Bei Mu, Niu Bang Zi, and increased Xi He Liu. This guides students.
If measles transforms into malaria, cool and strengthen Spleen. Use Mai Dong, Yi Yi Ren, Ge Gen, Fu Ling, Chen Pi, Bie Jia, Chai Hu, Bai Shao, Dan Zhu Ye, Zhi Mu, Bei Mu, and Shan Zha. Add Shi Gao if thirsty; omit Zhi Mu if not.
Guard against four fatal signs: toxic heat with emaciation (1), cough with cyanotic face and hoarseness (2), gangrenous mouth/gums with tissue loss (3), and dysentery with inability to eat (4). These are fatal; do not seek remedies elsewhere.
During measles in women, if menstruation approaches, blood loss and Qi deficiency may cause collapse. Avoid acrid/warm dispersals. Use Yang Yin Tang modified. Manage carefully; late intervention is futile.
Early fever with abnormal menstruation is due to fire-toxin forcing blood out of channels. Use Yuan Shen Di Huang Tang, or combine Jie Du Tang and Si Wu Tang. This stabilizes the condition.
Yuan Shen Di Huang Tang contains Dan Pi, Sheng Di, Yuan Shen, charred Pu Huang, and Zhi Zi. Si Wu Tang removes Chuan Xiong and Bai Shao. Jie Du Tang contains Zhi Zi, Huang Bo, Huang Qin, and Huang Lian. Menstruation stops after taking these.
In pregnancy, measles heat threatens the fetus. Severe heat causes fetal loss but maternal survival; mild cases may save both. For early onset, use Shen Su Yin minus Ban Xia and Mu Xiang. If rash appears, switch to An Tai Yin.
Shen Su Yin modification uses Zhi Ke, Qian Hu, Su Ye, Ge Gen, and Fu Ling. Avoid Gan Cao, Jie Geng, Chen Pi, Ren Shen, Ban Xia, and Mu Xiang. Add Lian Qiao, Niu Bang Zi, and Bei Mu. Do not follow rigid practitioners.
An Tai Yin contains Chuan Xiong, Bai Shao, Dang Gui, Su Ye, Gan Cao, Huang Qin, Da Fu Pi, Wu Dou, Chen Pi, Sha Ren, Ren Shen, and Bai Zhu. Use Nu Mi as a guide. Remove Bai Shao when rash erupts.
[Secret Appendix on Measles in Pregnancy] Pregnant women with measles must fear fetal damage from heat. Main formula: Chuan Xiong, Dang Gui, Bai Shao, Sheng Di Huang. Add Qi Ai, Huang Qin, and Jiang Zhi fried Sha Ren. This clears heat and calms fetus safely.
Postpartum measles should not be treated with cold/bitter herbs. Use Si Jun Zi Tang, Si Wu Tang, and Shi Quan Da Bu Tang to tonify Qi and Blood. Use Mi Xian and Rou Gui based on individual constitution. Relying on cold herbs harms Qi like adding frost to snow.
Shi Quan Da Bu Tang is Ba Zhen Tang with added ingredients: Chuan Xiong, Dang Gui, Sheng Di, Ren Shen, Fu Ling, Bai Zhu, Gan Cao, wine-fried Rou Gui and Bai Shao, and honey-fried Huang Qi. Decoct thickly and adjust as needed.
