治疗吐血。
甘草、苏木、陈皮（各五分），升麻、柴胡、苍术（各一钱），当归梢、熟地黄、白芍药、黄芪、人参（各二钱）。
以上药物捣成粗末，合并为一剂，加水两大盏，煎煮至一盏，滤去药渣，待药液稍温后，在饭前服用。

以上药物，先用水三盏单独煎煮麻黄，煮沸后撇去浮沫，煎至两盏时，加入其余药物共同煎煮至一盏，滤去药渣，热服。临睡前仅服一次即可痊愈，不再需要再次服药。

六脉弦细而涩，重按感觉空虚，面色苍白而无光泽，这是脱血证。此为大寒证，需用辛温补血、益血的药物，配合甘温、甘热、滑润的药剂来辅助治疗，即可痊愈。这种亡血的情况也会损伤精气。
治疗鼻血久治不愈，素体有热且突然发作，服用其他药物无效的神效方法：取一张大纸折叠八折或十折，在水中浸湿，敷贴于头顶正中部位，用热的熨斗熨烫，直到纸张变干，鼻血立即停止。
丁未年冬天，曹通甫从河南来，有一名差役小翟，因露宿在寒湿之地，导致腰痛不能转身侧卧，两胁抽搐急痛，已经一个多月未能痊愈。
《腰痛论》中说，腰痛多为足太阳经、足少阴经的血络中有瘀血阻滞所致疼痛；其中有一二例属于少阳胆经的外络脉病变，都是去除血络中的瘀血后痊愈。《内经》有云：“冬三月禁止使用针刺，只宜服药以疏通经络，破除血络中的败血。”以此方为主进行治疗。

The six pulses are wiry, fine, and choppy; pressing them feels empty. The complexion is white and lacks luster. This is a syndrome of blood loss (Tuo Xue). This is a severe cold syndrome. Treat with acrid-warm herbs to tonify and benefit Blood, assisted by sweet-warm, sweet-hot, and slippery/moistening agents. This will lead to recovery. Such loss of Blood also damages Essence and Qi.
For chronic epistaxis that does not stop, where there is inherent heat and sudden onset, and other medicines have failed: Use this divine method. Take one sheet of large paper, fold it eight or ten times. Wet it in water. Place it on the top center of the head. Iron it with a hot iron until the paper dries. The bleeding will stop immediately.
In the winter of Dingwei year, Cao Tongfu came from Henan. A runner named Xiao Zhai slept exposed in a cold and damp place, resulting in lower back pain unable to turn or lie sideways, and spasmodic pain in both hypochondria. This had persisted for over a month without healing.
The "Treatise on Lower Back Pain" states that lower back pain is mostly due to coagulated blood in the collaterals of the Foot-Taiyang and Foot-Shaoyin meridians causing pain. A few cases belong to diseases of the external collateral vessels of the Shaoyang Gallbladder Meridian. All are cured by removing the coagulated blood in the collaterals. The "Inner Canon" states: "During the three months of winter, acupuncture is prohibited; only medicine should be used to unblock the meridians and break down the stale blood in the collaterals." Use this prescription as the main treatment.
