一个小孩身体发热，气喘咳嗽，呕吐不能进食。我认为是疹症。这都是因为风寒封闭了腠理（皮肤毛孔），导致疹毒伏留而不能透发。用麻黄葛根汤来解表发汗，出汗后皮肤通畅，疹子透出，症状就全部平复了。也有经过发汗治疗仍然无汗、疹子不透的，或者虽然透发随即隐没，反而加重出现气喘腹胀无法救治的情况。
另一个孩子身体发热咳嗽，疹子隐隐约约出得很少，医生用发疹药治疗，疹子既不出也不退。我认为是瘾疹（荨麻疹类疾病），这是由于外感风寒郁结不散所致，不像中腑的正宗麻疹。用芎苏散治疗痊愈。
一个女孩出疹，用药过于寒凉。又吃了一两个生梨，疹子立即隐没，出现气喘急促、胸部胀满、面色青紫、四肢冰冷、眼睛闭合、声音嘶哑呕吐、昏迷眩晕。我认为是疹毒被寒气郁闭，反而内攻所致。用麻黄汤加葛根、紫苏、甘草、桔梗、生姜服用，外面盖上被子使其出汗而苏醒，疹子再次透出。气喘比之前更严重，我认为是突然使用麻黄这种燥烈之药，导致毒火旺盛、肺气热盛，应当用清润之法，用甘草、桔梗、牛蒡子、前胡、杏仁、玄参、知母、天花粉、黄芩、麦门冬治疗，喘息得以痊愈。
一个孩子身体发热，气喘急促，腹部胀满。医生说这是内伤兼外感，治疗无效。请我去诊治，查看他胸背部隐隐有红色，原来是疹症。用麻黄葛根汤解表，疹子虽然出现在头面部，但出不来随即隐没，最终死亡。
一个孩子身体发热，气喘腹胀，人事不省，口鼻出血，面色青白，干枯，我认为是闷疹（疹毒内陷），无法救治。
一个孩子身体发热，出疹伴有呕吐腹泻。我认为是初出疹子时出现的吐泻，是阳火得以宣泄，属于吉兆。用升麻葛根汤解表，疹子完全透出而痊愈。也有兼夹伤食导致吐利的，在前方的基础上加入消食导滞的药物。
一个孩子身体发热，头痛骨痛（这是伤寒的症状），咳嗽气急（这是疹症的表现），呃逆恶心不能进食，我认为是伤寒兼夹疹症。用百解散和十神解毒汤发汗治疗，症状平复，疹子透出而痊愈。也有症状类似前述情况，如果医生治疗迟缓，即使疹子透出，颜色紫黑，气喘腹胀，神志昏乱，也无法救治。
一个孩子疹子出一半，高热气喘腹胀，烦躁不安，神志昏乱。我认为是疹子没有完全透出，邪毒内攻所致。用麻黄、甘草、桔梗、干葛、荆芥、前胡、枳壳、牛蒡子治疗。疹子全部发出，经过两三次逐渐隐没而痊愈。
一个孩子疹子不容易透出，气喘腹胀，昏迷不醒。我认为是客冒风寒导致毒邪郁结而不易透出。用桂枝汤加麻黄、葛根、前胡服用。又用防风煎成一大盆汤，放在病人床下熏蒸，盖厚被子，出汗后，疹毒完全透出而痊愈。或者用芫荽防风汤洗浴头面手足，效果很好。又用苎麻蘸取芫荽酒遍身擦拭，更为奇妙。
一个孩子出汗后疹子已透，但气喘不止。我认为是邪气壅盛。用炒黑的麻黄、杏仁、甘草、石膏治愈。
一个孩子疹子颜色紫暗，便秘，小便赤红，烦躁不安，神志昏乱。我认为是疹毒亢盛。用大柴胡汤通利大便三次，前面的症状全部平复痊愈。
一个孩子疹子出得非常茂盛，形状像锦纹，中间夹杂有颗粒，颜色赤红，高热烦躁，舌苔厚，便秘，我认为是斑疹并行。用调胃承气汤通下，又用白虎汤合葛根汤治疗痊愈。
一个孩子疹子呈紫色，气喘咳嗽，呃逆腹泻不能进食。我认为是疹毒亢盛。用解毒饮配合挑痧法治愈。
一个孩子疹子全部发出，因外感风寒，疹子过早隐没，气喘腹胀，无法救治。也有紧急使用麻黄桂枝汤使疹子重新透出而痊愈的。
一个孩子正月发病出疹，身体肢体隐约可见但精神不振，头面部不出疹，面色青白，气喘腹胀，神志昏乱，右寸脉微弱。我认为是正气虚弱，不能驱赶邪气上升到头面部。应当以补益并助其升发为主，用麻黄桂枝汤加人参二钱水煎服，又用芫荽防风煎汤洗浴头面手足，疹子透出，症状平复而痊愈。
一个孩子疹子颜色紫暗，便秘，小便赤红，烦躁不安，神志昏乱。我认为是疹毒亢盛。用大柴胡汤治愈。
一个孩子疹子正在发出，却恣意饮食导致停滞，腹部饱胀便秘，高热说胡话。我认为是食积壅滞导致毒邪不能化解。用大黄、枳实、浓朴、栝蒌仁、甘草、黄连通下治疗。但仍然气喘咳嗽，高热，脉迟四肢冷。用附子理中汤和归芍六君子汤治疗痊愈。
一个孩子疹子虽然发出，但气喘腹胀便秘，高热说胡话。我认为是毒邪壅滞未能完全透出。用黄连、枳实、栝蒌仁、桑白皮、地骨皮、知母、石膏、人中黄治疗痊愈。
一个孩子出疹时误闻酸醋的声音，声音嘶哑不清，竟成为终身顽疾。
逢君相司天的年份，时行疹病多发。凡是治疗都用清凉发散的药剂，没有不痊愈的。如果用燥烈猛烈的药物发散，大多会造成病情混乱。经书说：必须先了解当年的气候特点，不要破坏人体的自然和谐。正是这个意思。
德按：每逢甲、庚、戊、壬、辰、戌、巳、亥之年，少阳客气占优势，多见时行疹病，治疗应当以宣毒发表为先。
一个孩子疹子不容易出来，我用二仁膏服用，疹子随即全部透出而痊愈。
一个孩子出疹，腹部饱胀便秘。我认为是内伤引发的疹症。用承气汤攻下治愈。
一个孩子疹子呈紫色，过早隐没，气喘急促但不咳嗽，通关窍不通，张口耸肩，胸部高耸如龟背，舌干唇燥，摇头抽搐，面色枯槁青白。我认为是邪火炽盛导致肺窍闭塞不通，无法救治。所以说：气喘且咳嗽的可以治疗，气喘而不咳嗽的难以医治。
一个孩子疹子虽然发出，但咽喉呛水，舌苔厚，嘴唇干燥。我认为是毒邪留恋心胃。用黄连解毒汤加连翘、牛蒡子治疗痊愈。
一个孩子出疹后身体发热，咳嗽不止。我认为是余毒乘袭肺金。用清金化毒汤治愈。
一个孩子出疹，出汗后气喘严重。我认为，张仲景说气喘且大热的，是内热甚盛。用麻黄、杏仁、石膏治疗痊愈。
一个孩子夏天出疹，不容易透出，无汗而气喘，用麻黄汤加知母、石膏、黄芩治疗痊愈。
一个孩子夏天出疹，身体发热头痛，气喘咳嗽无汗。我认为是风寒壅闭腠理。用升麻葛根汤加羌活、白芷、荆芥、桔梗、前胡、知母治疗，疹子完全透出，但仍有身体发热，用香薷饮合化斑汤治愈。
一个孩子夏天出疹，热势严重，烦渴。我认为是疹子兼夹暑毒。用香薷饮合葛根汤治疗痊愈。
一个孩子痘疮之后出疹。众人认为痘后正气未恢复，用补益兼升发的药剂，结果气喘急促变成闷疹，无法救治。
一个男子身体发热气喘咳嗽，医生用退热止嗽的药剂，身体变凉但气喘加重，咽痛。我认为是疹症，药物误用寒凉，导致毒邪被寒气郁闭，疹子出不来。用麻黄桂枝汤加干葛治疗，冷汗微出，疹子透出而痊愈。
一个孩子疹邪未尽，身体发热气喘咳嗽声音嘶哑。我用甘桔牛蒡汤加苏子、前胡、桑白皮、杏仁、连翘治疗痊愈。又一个孩子症状也如此，我用甘桔牛蒡汤加杏仁、知母、玄参、前胡、天花粉、麦门冬、淡竹叶治疗痊愈。
一个孩子疹后干咳断续。我认为是医生过度发散，导致肺气虚耗。用小异功散加麦冬、五味子、贝母、桔梗治疗痊愈。
一个孩子疹后干咳，大便稀溏，食欲减退。我认为是中气亏耗。应当温补，用六君子汤治疗痊愈。
一个孩子疹后身体发热不止，午后尤其严重。我认为是疹出之后，阴分曾受煎熬，血液必然亏耗，这是血虚症。治疗应当滋阴清火，这是养阴退阳的道理。
一个孩子疹后咽喉肿痛。我认为是余毒未解。用甘桔汤加牛蒡子、射干、玄参、连翘、知母治疗，又用葛槿散吹喉而愈。
一个孩子疹后身体发热，烦渴不止。我认为是虚烦。用竹叶石膏汤去掉半夏加干葛、花粉治愈。
一个孩子疹后痰嗽口疳，身体发热腹部饱胀。我认为是补益太早。用清胃汤加腹皮、枳壳治愈。
一个孩子疹后鼻出血不止，我用茅花煎浓汁服用治愈，也可以用白茅根。
一个孩子疹后高热，咳嗽痰中带血。我认为是毒邪留恋肺胃。用黄连、黄芩、山栀、知母、花粉、玄参、人中黄治愈。
一个孩子疹后拉下脓血，里急后重。我认为是毒邪进入大肠。先用三黄丸通下，再用黄连芍药汤治疗痊愈。
一个孩子疹后痢疾不止，饮食减少，脉缓四肢冷。我认为是脾胃气虚。用理中汤和归芍六君子汤治疗痊愈。也有对药物不起反应的，有的因噤口痢而死，有的因完谷不化的泄泻而死。
一个孩子疹后高热消瘦，烦躁昏沉。我认为是邪气未完全解除，乘袭心肝。用清解剂治疗痊愈。也有对药物不起反应的，逐渐发展到皮毛枯槁，形成疳瘵，津液干涸而死。
一个孩子疹后高热干咳，烦渴便秘。我认为是疹邪未解。用三黄汤通下，又用知母、麦冬、前胡、玄参、黄连、当归、天花粉、淡竹叶治疗。热虽退但咳渴不止。我认为是肺气受伤而津液不足。用人参、麦冬、五味子、贝母、陈皮、甘草、桔梗、花粉、知母治疗，逐渐痊愈。
一个孩子症状也如上，但热不退，逐渐肌肉消瘦，面色枯白，呃逆恶心泄泻。我认为是疹后疳劳，无法救治。拖延到六十岁才去世。
一个孩子疹后干咳便溏，身体发热消瘦，皮毛枯悴。我认为是疹后疳瘵的症状。用小异功散加贝母、黄连、青蒿、地骨皮、龙胆草、芍药治疗，逐渐痊愈。也有对药物不起反应逐渐变成慢脾风而死的。
一个儿子新婚之后出疹，痰嗽不止，众人认为是余毒未尽，用清解药导致痰更多。我认为是阴亏而火炎无制，所以午后潮热咳嗽严重。治疗应当以壮水为主，用六味地黄丸料加麦冬、知母治疗痊愈。又一个妇人出疹症状也如此，我用前方加当归治疗痊愈。
一个孩子疹后两眼红肿，高热烦渴。我认为是毒邪未完全解除，乘袭肝胃。用清胃解毒汤治疗痊愈。常有拖延失治的，有的失明，有的瞎眼。
一个孩子疹后疮痍遍布全身，高热躁烦。我认为是疹毒未尽。先用葛根汤加荆芥、防风发散，又用犀角地黄汤治疗痊愈。
一个孩子疹后患走马牙疳，牙龈溃烂穿鼻，各种药物无效。（德按：或许担心是梅花疳毒）我用黄牯牛粪，在后尖瓦上烧存性，与人中白、黄柏研为细末，等分和匀吹入患处，溃烂的孔窍逐渐愈合，牙龈牙齿都长好而痊愈。
一个孩子疹邪未尽发展为疔毒。我认为是痧疔。治疗同痘疔。又一个孩子疹毒不解发展为肿痈。我认为是痧痈。治疗同痘痈。
一个孩子疹后干咳不止。我认为是疹期过于发散，肺气虚耗，应当以补脾肺为主，他不听，只用清火止嗽药，他的背部逐渐驼背，腿足细小，成为终身顽疾。也有咳嗽久了胸部高肿满，状如龟胸的。启云先生说：疹后久咳则肺金衰弱，金衰不能生肾水，肾主骨髓，肾无生气则骨枯髓减，风寒乘虚而入于髓，邪气凝滞所以腰脊不能抬起而得此病。治疗方法先以防风散其邪，又用八味地黄丸，加人参、杜仲、牛膝、当归、石斛、何首乌、米仁、菟丝子、萆薢、鹿茸蜜丸，又用驱风壮筋活血膏贴在其凸起处，又灸肺俞穴（第三椎骨下各开一寸半）、膈俞穴（第七椎骨下各开一寸半）。一个孩子患此病，我诊察右脉缓弱，认为是脾肺不足，先用的人参、白术、茯苓、陈皮、甘草、贝母、当归、芍药、米仁、石斛水煎服，脾土稍微稳固，又用前面的方法治疗，腿足逐渐长肉，背驼稍愈，但不能完全恢复如初。
大概疹后应当避风寒，节饮食，以保养脾土为上策，如果有虚实之证进行补泻，不可因循苟且以致病情恶化。鸡肉荤腥咸酸辛辣宜过七七四十九天后再逐渐食用。所以说：过早吃鸡，怎能避免脾泄的祸患；不禁咸酸，难免哮喘的困扰。一旦不慎，可能成为终身顽疾，做父母的应当谨慎啊。
A child presented with fever, wheezing, cough, vomiting, and inability to eat. I diagnosed this as a rash disease (Zhen Zheng). This is caused by wind-cold sealing the couli (skin pores), causing the pathogenic factor to remain latent and unable to erupt. By using Mahuang Gegen Tang (Ephedra and Pueraria Decoction) to release the exterior, sweating was achieved, allowing the skin to become unobstructed, the rash to emerge fully, and the symptoms to resolve completely. In some cases, despite diaphoretic treatment, there is no sweat or eruption; or if the rash emerges briefly then disappears, it may worsen with wheezing and abdominal distension, becoming incurable.
Another child had fever and cough, with only faint traces of rash. The physician used eruptive medicines, but the rash neither appeared nor disappeared. I diagnosed this as Urticaria (Yin Zhen), caused by exogenous wind-cold stagnating and failing to disperse, which differs from the true measles affecting the fu organs. It was cured with Xiong Su San (Ligusticum and Perilla Powder).
A girl developed a rash, but was treated with cold-natured herbs. She also consumed one or two raw pears, after which the rash vanished. She presented with rapid wheezing, chest fullness, cyanotic face, cold limbs, closed eyes, hoarse voice with vomiting, and syncope. I reasoned that the toxin was constrained by cold and counter-attacked internally. I administered Mahuang Tang (Ephedra Decoction) augmented with Gegen (Pueraria Root), Zisu (Perilla Leaf), Gancao (Licorice), Jiegeng (Platycodon Root), and Shengjiang (Fresh Ginger). Covering her with blankets induced sweating, leading to recovery and re-emergence of the rash. However, wheezing worsened. I attributed this to the sudden use of the drying and acrid nature of Mahuang, causing intense toxin-fire and lung heat. Treatment should focus on clearing and moistening. I prescribed Gancao, Jiegeng, Niubangzi (Arctium Fruit), Qianhu (Peucedanum Root), Xingren (Apricot Seed), Xuanshen (Scrophularia Root), Zhimu (Anemarrhena Rhizome), Tianhuafen (Trichosanthes Root), Huangqin (Scutellaria Root), and Maimendong (Ophiopogon Tuber). The wheezing resolved.
A child had fever, rapid wheezing, and abdominal distension. The attending physician diagnosed internal injury combined with external contraction, but treatment failed. Upon my examination, faint redness was visible on the chest and back, indicating a rash disease. I used Mahuang Gegen Tang to release the exterior. Although the rash appeared on the head and face, it failed to fully emerge and subsequently vanished, leading to death.
A child had fever, wheezing, abdominal distension, unconsciousness, bleeding from the mouth and nose, cyanotic-white complexion, and dryness. I diagnosed this as "Menzhen" (Stifled Rash, where toxins are trapped internally), which is incurable.
A child had fever, rash, vomiting, and diarrhea. I reasoned that vomiting and diarrhea during the initial eruption of rash indicate the venting of yang fire, which is an auspicious sign. I used Shengma Gegen Tang (Cimicifuga and Pueraria Decoction) to release the exterior. The rash fully emerged, and the child recovered. In cases complicated by food stagnation causing vomiting and diarrhea, digestive aids were added to the formula.
A child had fever, headache, and bone pain (symptoms of Shanghan/Taiyang syndrome), along with cough and rapid breathing (symptoms of rash disease), hiccups, nausea, and anorexia. I diagnosed this as Shanghan combined with rash disease. I treated with Baijie San (Hundred Resolutions Powder) and Shishen Jiedu Tang (Ten Spirits Detoxification Decoction) to induce sweating. The symptoms resolved, the rash emerged, and the child recovered. Conversely, if similar symptoms are treated slowly by physicians, even if the rash emerges, a purple-black color with wheezing, distension, and mental confusion indicates an incurable condition.
A child had half-emerged rash, high fever, wheezing, abdominal distension, irritability, and mental confusion. I reasoned that incomplete eruption allows evil toxins to attack internally. I treated with Mahuang, Gancao, Jiegeng, Gange (Kudzu Root), Jingjie (Schizonepeta), Qianhu, Zhike (Aurantium Fructus), and Niubangzi. The rash fully emerged, faded gradually over two or three episodes, and the child recovered.
A child had difficulty in rash eruption, accompanied by wheezing, distension, and coma. I reasoned that exogenous wind-cold caused toxin stagnation, hindering eruption. I administered Guizhi Tang (Cinnamon Twig Decoction) augmented with Mahuang, Gegen, and Qianhu. Additionally, Fangfeng (Saposhnikovia Root) decoction was prepared in a basin and placed under the patient's bed for fumigation. Covered with thick quilts, sweating occurred, allowing the rash toxins to fully emerge and the child to recover. Alternatively, bathing the head, face, hands, and feet in Yanxu Fangfeng Tang (Celery and Saposhnikovia Decoction) is effective. Rubbing the body with Ramie dipped in Yanxu wine is even more beneficial.

The complexion was cyanotic-white, with wheezing, distension, mental confusion, and a faint pulse at the right Cun position. I reasoned that righteous qi was deficient and unable to drive pathogens upward to the head and face. Treatment should prioritize tonifying and assisting ascent. I administered Mahuang Guizhi Tang plus 2 qian of Renshen (Ginseng) decocted in water. Bathing the head, face, hands, and feet in Yanxu Fangfeng Tang helped the rash emerge and symptoms resolve.

In years governed by the Sovereign and Ministerial Qi, epidemic rashes are common. Treatment with cooling and dispersing agents invariably leads to recovery. However, using harsh, drying, and aggressive dispersing agents often causes complications. The Classics state: "First understand the seasonal qi, do not violate the harmony of heaven and humanity." This applies here.
De notes: In years of Jia, Geng, Wu, Ren, Chen, Xu, Si, and Hai, when Shaoyang guest qi prevails, epidemic rashes are frequent. Treatment should prioritize releasing toxins and the exterior.

A child with persistent post-rash dry cough was diagnosed with lung qi deficiency from excessive dispersion. Spleen and lung tonification was advised, but ignored. Only clearing fire and stopping cough agents were used, leading to kyphosis and thin legs, a lifelong ailment. Some developed convex chest (Gui Xiong). Mr. Qiyun stated: Post-rash chronic cough weakens Metal; Metal weakness fails to generate Kidney Water. Kidney governs marrow; lack of kidney vitality leads to bone withering and marrow depletion. Wind-cold enters marrow, stagnates, and causes spinal immobility. Treatment: First dispel evil with Fangfeng San. Then, Bajia Dihuang Wan (Eight Ingredient Rehmannia Pill) augmented with Renshen, Duzhong (Eucommia), Niuxi (Achyranthes), Danggui, Shihu (Dendrobium), Heshouwu (Polygonum Multiflorum), Yimi (Coix Seed), Tusizi (Cuscuta), Bibi (Dioscorea), and Lurong (Deer Antler) honey pills. Apply Qufeng Zhuangjin Huoxue Gao (Wind-Dispersing, Tendon-Strengthening, Blood-Activating Ointment) to protrusions. Moxibustion on Feishu (BL13) and Geshu (BL17) points. For a child with slow-weak right pulse indicating spleen-lung deficiency, Renshen, Baizhu (Atractylodes), Fuling (Poria), Chenpi, Gancao, Beimu, Danggui, Shaoyao, Yimi, and Shihu decocted strengthened the spleen earth. Subsequent treatment allowed leg flesh regeneration and slight improvement in kyphosis, though not complete recovery.
Generally, post-rash care requires avoiding wind-cold and regulating diet to protect spleen earth. Tonification or purgation should be applied based on excess or deficiency. Do not neglect care to avoid deterioration. Chicken, meat, salty, sour, pungent, and spicy foods should be avoided for 49 days (seven sevens) before gradual reintroduction. Thus, early chicken consumption risks spleen diarrhea; unrestricted salty/sour intake risks asthma. Carelessness may cause lifelong ailments. Parents must be vigilant.
