呃逆，是指气从脐下直冲而上，出于口并发出声音的病证。古时候称为“哕”，现在称为“呃”。这是由胃寒引起的，寒气上逆导致呃逆。病因包括有痰、气虚、火邪、因饮食过量填塞胸中导致气机升降失常，或者有痰闭塞于上部、火起于下部导致气机不能伸展越出。又有伤寒热病，阳明腑实，过期未下，清气不得上升，浊气不得下降，导致气机不通畅而引发呃逆的，这些都属于实证。

E Ni (hiccups) is named for the sound produced when Qi rushes straight up from below the umbilicus and exits through the mouth. In ancient times it was called Yue, now it is called E. It is generated by Stomach Cold; cold Qi rebels upward causing hiccups. Etiologies include Phlegm, Qi Deficiency, Fire, excessive food intake blocking the chest preventing Qi ascent and descent, phlegm obstructing above while fire rises below preventing Qi extension, or Taiyang-Shaoyang transition diseases/heat diseases where Yangming interior excess persists without purgation, preventing clear Qi from ascending and turbid Qi from descending, leading to blocked Qi mechanism and hiccups. These are all Excess syndromes.
Prescription: Treats Phlegm-induced cough and hiccups.
Herbs: Chen Pi (Aged Tangerine Peel), Ban Xia (Pinellia Tuber).
Preparation: Add 5 slices of fresh ginger, decoct in water and drink. Alternatively, decoct Ren Shen Lu (Ginseng Stalk) in water to induce vomiting.
