夫青筋之症,原气逆而血不行,并恶血上攻于心也。多由一切怒气相冲,或忧郁气结不散,或恼怒复伤生冷,
或房劳后受寒湿,以致精神恍惚、心慌气喘、噎塞上壅、呕哕恶心、头目昏眩、胸膈痞满、心腹刺痛、胁肋腰背痛、
头痛脑疼、口苦舌干、面青唇黑、四肢沉困、百节酸痛,或憎寒壮热、遍身麻痹不仁、手足厥冷颤掉、默默不语、
不思饮食等症,皆恶血攻心而致之也。自古以来,无人论此,但有患此疾者,无方可治。唯以砭针于两手曲池青筋
上刺之,出瘀血不胜其数。而疾有即愈者,有不愈者,而变为大患者,常惯病此者,或有一月一次,或二三次者,
屡患屡刺,莫之能愈。愚唯虑人之生命以气血为主,故丹溪曰∶气血和,一疾不生;亏则百病生焉。况此病先伤于风
而后复损其血,不致于夭枉者盖亦鲜矣。虽然未有退血之法,又不得不刺,不刺则恶血攻心,须臾不救。余制一方,
屡获效验,名曰白虎丸。白虎者,西方肺金之谓也;青筋者,东方肝木之谓也。以白虎而治青筋,是金能克木故耳,
何病之不愈哉?此方之妙,不唯代刺青筋之苦,愈青筋之病,而亦免后日之患。其惠也不亦大乎?此方兼治男子久患
痢疾便血,妇人崩漏带下,并一切
打扑内损,血不能散,心腹痛欲死者服之,其效不啻桴鼓之影响也。按此青筋之症,北人多患之,南人有此即
痧症也。

青筋病,其病因是气机逆乱导致血液运行不畅,以及恶血上冲侵犯心脏。多由各种怒气冲撞,或忧郁导致气机郁结不散,或恼怒后又损伤生冷食物,或在房事劳累后感受寒湿之气,从而导致精神恍惚、心慌气喘、咽喉噎塞气机上壅、呕吐呃逆恶心、头目昏眩、胸膈痞闷胀满、心腹刺痛、胁肋腰背疼痛、头痛脑痛、口苦舌干、面色发青嘴唇发黑、四肢沉重困倦、全身关节酸痛,或憎寒壮热、遍身麻痹无知觉、手足厥冷颤抖、沉默不语、不思饮食等症状,这些都是恶血攻心所导致的。自古以来,无人论述此病,但有患此疾者,没有方药可治。只能用砭针在两手曲池穴的青筋上刺破,放出瘀血数量极多。而疾病有的立即痊愈,有的不愈,有的反而变成重症患者。经常患病的人,有的每月发作一次,有的两三次,屡犯屡刺,无法治愈。我唯独担心人的生命以气血为主,所以朱丹溪说:气血调和,一种疾病都不会产生;亏损则百病丛生。况且此病先受风邪伤害,而后又损耗血液,能不致早亡的很少了。虽然没有退血的良法,又不得不刺,不刺则恶血攻心,片刻间就会危及生命。我配制一方,屡次获得疗效,名叫白虎丸。白虎,指的是西方肺金;青筋,指的是东方肝木。用白虎来治疗青筋,是因为金能克木的缘故,什么病不能痊愈呢?此方的妙处,不仅代替了刺青筋的痛苦,治愈青筋病,而且免除了日后的祸患。它的恩惠不是很广大吗?此方兼治男子久患痢疾便血,妇人崩漏带下,以及一切跌打内伤,瘀血不能消散,心腹痛欲死者服用,其效果如同鼓声与回声一样迅速准确。按此青筋之症,北方人多患此病,南方人有此症状即为痧症。

The syndrome of "Green Veins" (Qingjin) originates from rebellious Qi causing blood stasis, and the upward attack of foul blood on the Heart. It is mostly caused by various outbursts of anger, or depression leading to stagnant Qi that fails to disperse, or injury from cold and raw foods after anger, or contracting cold-dampness after sexual exhaustion. This results in symptoms such as mental confusion, palpitations with shortness of breath, throat obstruction with Qi rebellion, vomiting and hiccups, dizziness of the head and eyes, chest and diaphragm fullness and distension, stabbing pain in the heart and abdomen, pain in the hypochondrium, lower back, and back, headache and brain pain, bitter taste in the mouth and dry tongue, cyanotic complexion with black lips, heavy and lethargic limbs, soreness and pain in all joints, aversion to cold with high fever, numbness and loss of sensation over the whole body, cold extremities with tremors, silence without speech, and lack of appetite. All these symptoms are caused by foul blood attacking the Heart. Since ancient times, no one has discussed this disease; those who suffer from it have had no formula for treatment. The only method was to use a Bian needle to prick the green veins at the Quchi (LI11) acupoint on both hands, releasing a large amount of blood stasis. Some diseases were cured immediately, some were not cured, and some turned into severe conditions. Those accustomed to this illness might experience it once a month, or two or three times. Repeated pricking failed to cure it. I am concerned that human life depends primarily on Qi and Blood. Therefore, Zhu Danxi said: When Qi and Blood are harmonious, no disease arises; when deficient, hundreds of diseases emerge. Moreover, this disease first injures due to Wind, and then damages the Blood; few escape premature death. Although there is no perfect method to resolve blood stasis, pricking is unavoidable; if not pricked, foul blood attacks the Heart, and rescue is impossible within moments. I formulated a prescription that has repeatedly proven effective, named Baihu Wan (White Tiger Pill). "Baihu" refers to the Metal of the West Lung; "Green Veins" refer to the Wood of the East Liver. Using Metal to treat Wood works because Metal controls Wood. How could any disease fail to be cured? The brilliance of this formula lies not only in replacing the suffering of pricking green veins and curing the disease, but also in preventing future afflictions. Is its benefit not great? This formula also treats men with chronic dysentery and hematochezia, women with metrorrhagia and leukorrhea, and all cases of internal injury from falls and blows where blood stasis cannot dissipate, causing severe heart and abdominal pain nearly fatal. Its efficacy is as immediate as the echo following a drumbeat. According to records, this "Green Vein" syndrome is common in the North; in the South, similar symptoms are classified as Sha Syndrome (Sand Disease).
Baihu Wan (also known as Baihu Xiandan): Ancient calcined stone (Guan Duanshi), prepared by Gushenzi, used to save people from disaster. Grind into fine powder, process by water flotation, form into pills, and dry in the sun. Take with warm rice wine. Each dose requires swallowing fifty pills. Preserve men and women from Green Vein syndrome, accumulate merit throughout the universe.
Millennium Calcined Stone (Quantity unspecified. Scrape off impurities and soil, grind into powder, and process by water flotation.)
Dry appropriately, form pills the size of paulownia seeds. Take fifty pills per dose, adjusting according to severity, with warm rice wine. This medicine regulates Qi, resolves blood stasis, transforms phlegm, and eliminates stagnation. It treats early-stage Green Vein syndrome with headache, nausea, abdominal pain, lower back pain, generalized pain, and anorexia. Taking one dose immediately disperses the blood stasis. If three to five days pass and the veins are hardened, take multiple doses for effect. It also treats heart and abdominal pain, metrorrhagia and leukorrhea in women, illnesses caused by emotional anger, chronic bloody or white dysentery, and internal injuries from trauma where blood stasis persists. It is highly effective.
