油调涂，将青荷叶包上，内服芩连、甘草、木通、当归之类，多得保全，患者勿惧。
夫疸病有宜清者，是壮年气实，湿热郁遏，小便短少，其脉实数，宜利小便，茵陈
五苓散之类。有宜汗者，是湿热郁于表也。必身痛恶寒，宜桂枝黄 汤之类。有宜温
者，是脾胃有寒饮不运也，宜茵陈附子干姜汤。
《经》曰∶中央黄色，入通于脾，黄者脾之色也。人身之神，贵于藏而默用，见于
外则内虚矣。疽者，因脾土有亏，失于运化转输不及，湿热逗留浊气拂郁而然，故书
曰∶疸不用分其五，同是湿热，实因脾虚为本，而湿热是标也。有因病久身痛，肩膊背
强，二便俱涩，遍体面目爪甲，视物皆黄，溺如屋尘水者，此真疸也。若不因病后，但
胃气乍伤，淡黄口秽，目眶浮肿者，此胃热也。若淡黄色而妨食，不渴时泄者，此胃怯
也。若蒸热深黄，腹胀嗜土，口渴溺黄者，此疳热也。若周身痛，面色如熏黄者，湿病
也。若身不痛而色如橘黄者，黄病也。若因母久疟或母病黄，而致生下彻黄者，即胎黄
也。又有潮热而二便赤涩者，乃脾土与心火相搏，名为阳黄。如脾肾虚寒脉沉而细，身
冷自汗，泻利溺白者，乃阳虚不能以化阴寒之凝聚，名为阴黄。更有脾弱而痿黄者，治
法总宜理脾为上，而导水次之，大人多因虚损以生湿，久而成热，主乎脾肾。小儿多
因实热以内郁，蒸而成湿，主乎肺胃，湿热相合而成疸，宜分阴阳，别虚实，以治之。
实热者，其脉必洪数，若脉微涩者，即属虚弱也。仲景云∶发黄小便自利，当与虚劳
同，宜小建中汤。海藏曰∶内感伤寒，劳役形体饮食失节，中州变寒变生黄，非外感而
得，只宜理中大小建中足矣。不必用茵陈也。盖脾胃为湿热所伤，久之气血渐弱，必
兼补养，如参术健脾，当归和血，秦艽散湿，使正气盛，邪自退也。
《经》曰∶溺黄赤，安卧，目黄者，黄胆，已食如饥者，胃疸，《经》言溺赤，及
已食如饥者、热之故也。安静嗜卧，湿之征也。黄为中央戊已之色，多属于太阴脾土，
脾不能胜湿，复挟火热，郁而生黄，譬之 面相似，湿热相搏其黄乃成，然湿与热，
又自有别，湿家之黄，色暗不明，热家之黄，色光而润也。汗出沾衣，色如柏汁，此
名黄汗。仲景谓汗出浴水，水从孔中，湿与热而成。食伤谓之谷疸，多因郁闷之人，而
谷气抑郁，不得四达，脾受肝木之贼，谷入不能长气于胃阳，而反动风于脾阴，胃聚
其湿热，而蒸为腐败之浊气，下伤膀胱，故食则头眩，小水不通，一身尽黄。诸失血
后，多面黄，盖面色红润者，血荣之也。血去则面见黄色，譬诸树叶，春夏华而绿，秋
冬萎而黄也，宜养荣汤，十全大补汤。疟后多黄者，脾阴虚而土色自见也，理脾为先，
亦有通身俱黄，但不及耳目为异。酒伤名曰酒疸，酒为湿热之最，久积不行，上触而为
呕恶为懊 ，小水不利，不能食也。女劳疸微汗出而额色黑，手足心热，日晡发热，而
反恶寒，膀胱急而小便自利，或谓交接入水所致，相火从水中上炎，合于心之君火，烟
焰之色，透于额矣，手足心热，内伤皆然，日暮阳明用事，阳明主阖，收敛一身之湿
热、疾趋而下，膀胱因而告急，其少腹满，小便则自利，大便则黑而溏者，膀胱畜血之
验也。腹如水状，实非水也。正指蓄血而言也。如多渴而腹胀者，难治，此宜清热利水
药中，加以消瘀行血，如琥珀、丹皮、红曲、红花、桃仁、延胡、蒲黄、五灵脂、韭
汁之类。
有等肾虚，不能行水，以致水湿上浮，郁久则热，湿热上蒸，亦乃目睛面色俱黄，
此宜以金匮肾气，加麦冬作汤饮之，其两尺必迟缓无力，腿脚酸软可验，故小便色白
自利，及有虚寒脉候，非大温补不可，盖阳气宣扬，阴黄自退，若误用凉药分利，水枯
面黑而死。
夫黄胆者，暴病也，仲景以十八日愈，若食劳疳黄，俗名黄胖乃久病也。甚有久不
愈者，古人以针砂醋矾之类，伐肝，以术米枣肉之类助脾，实人及田家作苦之人宜之，
若禀质柔脆，以补为攻可也。惟秦艽一味，诸黄常用极妙，以能逐阳明经湿热，从外而
散其功效既臻，而性复和平，不险峻也。不可妄投凉药，愈伤脾胃。小便不利，无汗为
实。小便自利自汗为虚。小便色白，不变为无热。小便色变黄赤为湿热。年壮气实，
脉大易愈。脉小溺利，不渴者生，脉洪泄利，而渴者死。寸口近掌处无脉，口鼻冷有
黑色起者死，疸病渴者难治，不渴者易治。疸毒入腹，喘满者死。老人气虚脉微难瘥，
黄胆日久，变为黑疸，死不治，气实者，急以土瓜根捣汁六合，顿服，黄水从小便出即愈。
治疗偏坠气。
南木香、大茴香、小茴香、川楝肉（各三钱），以上药材作为一剂，在锅内炒至香气四溢，加入连须的葱白五根，用一碗水倒入锅中，用碗盖住锅口，煎煮至剩半碗药液，滤去药渣，加入好酒半碗和一茶匙炒盐，空腹热服。疼痛剧烈的，服用一剂即可立即痊愈。
治疗阴囊肿胀，大如斗核且疼痛。
雄黄（一两）、白矾（二两）、甘草（五钱），用水煎煮，先熏洗患处，效果极佳。
治疗钓肾气，膀胱偏坠，疼痛难以忍受。
川楝子五两，锉成五分大小的碎片，取一分用斑蝥一个，去掉头、翅，同炒后，去掉斑蝥；取一分用茴香二钱、盐五分，炒熟后，去掉盐，保留茴香入药；取一分用黑牵牛三钱，同炒后，去掉牵牛子；取一分用破故纸（补骨脂）三钱，同炒，保留破故纸入药；取一分用萝卜子（莱菔子）一钱，同炒后，去掉萝卜子。最后将川楝子去核，与破故纸一起炒香，焙干研为细末，用酒糊制成丸药，大小如梧桐子，每次服用三十丸，空腹用温酒送服。
又一方：
治疗阴囊溃烂，睾丸脱出暴露，名为脱囊。用紫苏叶和茎研成细末，如果已经溃烂，直接干敷；如果未破溃，用香油调匀涂抹，并用青荷叶包裹在内，内服黄芩、黄连、甘草、木通、当归等药物，大多能够保全性命，患者不必恐惧。
黄疸病中有适宜清利的，是壮年人气血充实，湿热郁结阻滞，小便短少，脉象实而数，适宜利小便，如茵陈五苓散之类。有适宜发汗的，是湿热郁结在体表。必然伴有身体疼痛、恶寒，适宜桂枝大黄汤之类。有适宜温补的，是脾胃有寒饮不能运化，适宜茵陈附子干姜汤。
《内经》说：中央对应黄色，通应于脾，黄色是脾的颜色。人体的神气，贵在潜藏而默默发挥作用，显露于外则说明内部虚弱了。疸病，是因为脾土亏损，失去运化和转输的功能，湿热停留，浊气拂逆郁结所致，所以书上说：疸病不必区分五种类型，都是湿热，实际上以脾虚为本，湿热为标。有的因病久身体疼痛，肩背僵硬，大小便都不通畅，全身面目指甲都发黄，尿液像屋尘水一样浑浊，这是真正的疸病。如果不是因病后，只是胃气突然受伤，口淡黄且有口臭，眼眶浮肿，这是胃热。如果是淡黄色且妨碍进食，不渴且时常腹泻，这是胃气怯弱。如果是蒸蒸发热、深黄色，腹胀想吃泥土，口渴尿黄，这是疳热。如果是周身疼痛，面色像被烟熏过的黄色，这是湿病。如果身体不痛而颜色像橘子皮一样的黄色，这是黄病。如果是因母亲长期患疟疾或母亲患病发黄，导致出生后全身发黄的，就是胎黄。又有潮热且大小便赤涩的，是脾土与心火相搏，名为阳黄。如果脾肾虚寒，脉象沉细，身体冷自汗，腹泻尿白，这是阳虚不能化除阴寒凝聚，名为阴黄。更有脾弱而痿黄的情况，治疗方法总以调理脾脏为上策，其次导水利湿，成人多因虚损而生湿，日久化热，主要关乎脾肾。小儿多因实热内郁，蒸腾而成湿，主要关乎肺胃，湿热相合而成疸，应当分辨阴阳，辨别虚实，来治疗它。
实热证，脉象必定洪大数急，如果脉象微涩，就属于虚弱。张仲景说：发黄且小便自利，应当与虚劳同论，适宜用小建中汤。王海藏说：内感伤寒，劳累形体饮食失节，中焦变寒变生黄疸，不是外感所得，只适宜理中汤、大小建中汤足矣。不必使用茵陈。因为脾胃被湿热所伤，日久气血逐渐衰弱，必须兼用补养，如人参、白术健脾，当归和血，秦艽散湿，使正气旺盛，邪气自然退去。
《内经》说：尿黄赤，安静嗜卧，眼睛发黄，是黄疸；饭后感觉饥饿，是胃疸，《内经》说尿赤，以及饭后感觉饥饿，是热的缘故。安静嗜卧，是湿的表现。黄色是中央戊己之色，多属于太阴脾土，脾不能胜湿，又挟带火热，郁结而生黄，就像面粉发酵相似，湿热相搏其黄乃成，然而湿与热，又自有区别，湿家之黄，颜色暗而不明，热家之黄，颜色光亮而润泽。汗出沾衣，颜色像柏树汁，这名叫黄汗。张仲景说汗出洗澡，水从毛孔进入，湿与热结合而成。饮食损伤叫做谷疸，多因郁闷之人，谷气抑郁，不得通达，脾受肝木克制，食物进入不能在胃阳中长气，反而扰动脾阴，胃聚积湿热，蒸腾为腐败的浊气，下伤膀胱，所以吃饭就头晕，小便不通，全身尽黄。各种失血之后，多见面黄，因为面色红润是靠血液荣养。血去则面见黄色，就像树叶，春夏开花绿色，秋冬枯萎黄色，适宜养荣汤、十全大补汤。疟疾后多黄的，是脾阴虚而土色自现，调理脾脏为先，也有通身俱黄，只是不及耳目不同。酒伤名叫酒疸，酒是湿热之最，久积不行，上触而为呕吐恶心懊恼，小便不利，不能进食。女劳疸微汗出而额头色黑，手足心热，傍晚发热，反而恶寒，膀胱急迫而小便自利，有人说性交后入水所致，相火从水中上炎，合于心之君火，烟焰的颜色，透于额头，手足心热，内伤都是这样，日暮阳明当令，阳明主阖，收敛一身之湿热，疾速下行，膀胱因而告急，其少腹满，小便则自利，大便则黑而溏，是膀胱蓄血的验证。腹部像有水状，其实不是水，正指蓄血而言。如果多渴而腹胀的，难治，这适宜在清热利水药中，加上消瘀行血药，如琥珀、丹皮、红曲、红花、桃仁、延胡索、蒲黄、五灵脂、韭汁之类。
有肾虚，不能行水，以致水湿上浮，郁久则热，湿热上蒸，也是眼睛和面色都黄，这适宜用金匮肾气汤，加麦冬作汤饮用，其两尺脉必迟缓无力，腿脚酸软可验证，所以小便色白自利，及有虚寒脉候，非大温补不可，因为阳气宣扬，阴黄自然退去，如果误用凉药分利，水枯面黑而死。
黄疸病，是暴病，张仲景认为十八天痊愈，如果是食劳疳黄，俗名黄胖则是久病。甚至有久不愈的，古人用针砂、醋、矾之类，伐肝，用术、米、枣肉之类助脾，体质强壮及田间劳作辛苦的人适宜，如果禀质柔脆，以补法为攻法也可以。只有秦艽一味药，诸黄常用极妙，因为它能驱逐阳明经湿热，从外而散，其功效既达到，性质又和平，不险峻。不可妄投凉药，更伤脾胃。小便不利，无汗为实证。小便自利自汗为虚证。小便色白，不变为无热。小便色变黄赤为湿热。年壮气实，脉大易愈。脉小溺利，不渴者生，脉洪泄利，而渴者死。寸口近掌处无脉，口鼻冷有黑色起的死，疸病渴者难治，不渴者易治。疸毒入腹，喘满者死。老人气虚脉微难愈，黄疸日久，变为黑疸，死不治，气实者，急以土瓜根捣汁六合，顿服，黄水从小便出即愈。
Treatment for hernia (Pianzhui Qi).
Nanmuxiang (Lignum Aquilariae Resinatum), Da Huixiang (Fructus Foeniculi), Xiao Huixiang (Fructus Foeniculi), Chuanlian Rou (Semen Toosendan) (each 3 qian). Prepare as one dose, stir-fry in a pot until fragrant, add 5 stalks of scallion white parts with roots intact. Add 1 bowl of water to the pot, cover with a bowl, simmer until half a bowl remains. Remove dregs, add half a bowl of good wine and one teaspoon of fried salt. Take hot on an empty stomach. For severe pain, one dose brings immediate relief.

Treatment for retracted testis (Diaoshen Qi), bladder herniation, unbearable pain.
Chuanlianzi (Fructus Toosendan, 5 liang), cut into pieces. Take one part, stir-fry with one Banmao (Mylabris, remove head and wings), discard Banmao. Take one part, stir-fry with 2 qian Huixiang (Fennel) and 5 fen salt, cook thoroughly, discard salt, keep Huixiang. Take one part, stir-fry with 3 qian Heiqianniu (Semen Pharbitidis), discard Heiqianniu. Take one part, stir-fry with 3 qian Poguzhi (Fructus Psoraleae), keep Poguzhi.

Make pills with wine paste, size of tung tree seeds. Take 30 pills per dose, swallow with warm wine on an empty stomach.
Another prescription:
Treatment for scrotal ulceration and testicular prolapse, named Tuonang (Scrotal Gangrene). Powder fine leaves and stems of Zisuye (Perilla Leaf). If ulcerated, apply dry powder; if not broken, mix with sesame oil and apply. Wrap with fresh lotus leaf. Internally decoct Qin (Radix Scutellariae), Lian (Rhizoma Coptidis), Gancao (Radix Glycyrrhizae), Mutong (Caulis Akebiae), Danggui (Radix Angelicae Sinensis), etc. Most patients are saved; do not fear.
In jaundice diseases, some require clearing. This occurs in young adults with robust qi, where damp-heat is constrained and stagnant, urine is scanty, pulse is full and rapid. It is suitable to promote urination, using formulas like Yinchen Wuling San (Artemisia Capillaris and Five-Ingredient Poria Pill). Some require sweating. This is due to damp-heat constrained in the exterior. There must be body ache and aversion to cold. It is suitable for Guizhi Dahuang Tang (Cinnamon Twig and Rhubarb Decoction). Some require warming. This is due to cold-fluid retention in the spleen and stomach failing to transform. It is suitable for Yinchen Fuzi Ganjiang Tang (Artemisia Capillaris, Aconite, and Ginger Decoction).
The Classic states: The center corresponds to yellow, connecting to the Spleen. Yellow is the color of the Spleen. The spirit of the human body values concealment and silent operation; when revealed externally, the interior is deficient. Jaundice arises because Spleen Earth is deficient, losing its function of transformation and transportation, causing damp-heat to linger and turbid qi to stagnate. Thus, it is said: Jaundice need not be divided into five types; all are damp-heat, fundamentally rooted in Spleen deficiency, with damp-heat as the branch. In cases of long-standing illness with body ache, stiffness in shoulders/back, obstruction of both bowels and urine, yellowing of the whole body, face, and nails, and urine resembling dirty water, this is true Jaundice. If not post-illness, but sudden injury to Stomach Qi, presenting with pale yellow mouth odor and swollen eye sockets, this is Stomach Heat. If pale yellow hinders appetite, without thirst but with frequent diarrhea, this is Spleen-Stomach Weakness. If steaming fever, deep yellow color, abdominal distension, craving earth, thirst, and yellow urine, this is Childhood Malnutrition Heat (Gan Re). If whole-body ache and sallow complexion like smoke-stained yellow, this is Dampness Disease. If no body ache but orange-yellow color, this is Jaundice Disease. If caused by the mother's long-term malaria or maternal jaundice leading to neonatal jaundice, it is called Fetal Jaundice (Taihuang). If tidal fever with red and obstructed urine and stool, it is Yang Jaundice, caused by Spleen Earth clashing with Heart Fire. If Spleen-Kidney deficiency-cold with deep, thin pulse, cold body, spontaneous sweating, diarrhea, and white urine, it is Yin Jaundice, caused by Yang deficiency failing to transform yin-cold accumulation. Furthermore, Spleen weakness leading to sallow atrophy requires treatment prioritizing regulating the Spleen, followed by draining water. Adults often develop dampness from deficiency, which turns to heat over time, primarily involving Spleen and Kidney. Children often develop dampness from internal constraint of excess heat, primarily involving Lung and Stomach. When damp-heat combines to form jaundice, one must distinguish Yin/Yang and Deficiency/Excess to treat.
Excess-Heat presents with a surging and rapid pulse; if the pulse is faint and choppy, it belongs to Deficiency. Zhang Zhongjing stated: Yellowing with free urination should be treated similarly to Consumption (Xu Lao), suitable for Xiaojianzhong Tang (Minor Construct the Middle Decoction). Hai Zang (Wang Haigu) stated: Internal contraction of Cold Damage, physical exhaustion, and irregular diet cause the Middle Jiao to become cold and generate jaundice. It is not acquired from external pathogens; Lizhong Tang and Da/Xiao Jianzhong Tangs suffice. Yinchen is unnecessary. Since Spleen and Stomach are injured by damp-heat, Qi and Blood gradually weaken over time. Tonification is required, such as Renshen (Radix Ginseng) and Baizhu (Rhizoma Atractylodis Macrocephalae) to strengthen the Spleen, Danggui (Radix Angelicae Sinensis) to harmonize Blood, and Qinjiao (Radix Gentianae Macrophyllae) to scatter Dampness. When Righteous Qi is strong, Pathogenic factors recede naturally.
The Classic states: Red-yellow urine, quietude, and desire to lie down, with yellow eyes, indicate Jaundice. Feeling hungry after eating indicates Stomach Jaundice. The Classic mentions red urine and hunger after eating as signs of Heat. Quietude and lethargy are signs of Dampness. Yellow is the color of Central Wu-Ji, mostly belonging to Taiyin Spleen Earth. When the Spleen cannot overcome Dampness and is accompanied by Fire-Heat, stagnation produces yellow. Like fermenting flour, when Dampness and Heat clash, yellow forms. However, Dampness and Heat differ: Dampness-type jaundice is dark and dull; Heat-type jaundice is bright and lustrous. Sweat staining clothes, yellow as cypress juice, is named Huanghan (Yellow Sweat). Zhang Zhongjing said sweat bathing causes water to enter pores, combining Dampness and Heat. Injury from food is called Grain Jaundice (Gu Dan), often due to depression causing Grain Qi to stagnate and fail to circulate. Spleen is invaded by Liver Wood; food entering fails to nourish Stomach Yang and instead disturbs Spleen Yin. Stomach accumulates damp-heat, steaming it into corrupt turbid qi, damaging the Bladder downward. Thus, dizziness upon eating, urinary obstruction, and whole-body yellowing occur. After various blood-loss conditions, the face is often yellow because ruddy color comes from Blood nourishment. Loss of Blood reveals yellow, like leaves turning yellow in autumn/winter. Suitable for Yangrong Tang (Nourish Blood Decoction) and Shiquan Dabu Tang (Ten Complete Great Tonifying Decoction). Post-malaria yellowing is due to Spleen Yin deficiency revealing Earth color; regulating Spleen is primary. Whole-body yellowing excluding eyes/ears is different. Alcohol injury is named Wine Jaundice (Jiu Dan); alcohol is the peak of damp-heat. Long accumulation rises upward causing vomiting, nausea, and restlessness, with difficult urination and inability to eat. Female Labor Jaundice (Nv Lao Dan) presents with slight sweating, black forehead, hot palms/soles, evening fever, aversion to cold, urgent bladder but free urination. Some attribute it to intercourse followed by water exposure. Ministerial Fire flares up from Water, merging with Monarch Fire of Heart, smoke-color penetrating the forehead. Hot palms/soles are common in internal injury. At dusk, Yangming governs, closing and gathering damp-heat downward. Bladder becomes urgent. Lower abdomen full, free urination, black loose stool indicate Bladder Blood Stasis. Abdominal distension resembling water is actually Blood Stasis. If excessive thirst and abdominal distension, prognosis is poor. Treat with heat-clearing, diuretic herbs plus blood-invigorating stasis-resolving agents like Hupo (Fossilized Amber), Danpi (Cortex Moutan), Hongqu (Red Yeast Rice), Honghua (Flos Carthami), Tao Ren (Semen Persicae), Yanhu (Rhizoma Corydalis), Puhuang (Pollen Typhae), Wulingzhi (Faeces Trogopterori), Jiuzhi (Jui Juice).
Kidney deficiency failing to move water leads to floating dampness. Long stagnation generates heat; damp-heat steams upward, yellowing eyes and face. Treat with Jingui Shenqi Wan (Golden Cabinet Kidney Qi Pill) modified with Maidong (Rhizoma Ophiopogonis) as a decoction. Pulse at both Chi positions will be slow, weak, and powerless; leg soreness confirms this. Free white urine and deficiency-cold pulse indicate that only major warming tonification works. When Yang Qi spreads, Yin Jaundice retreats. Misusing cooling diuretics leads to water depletion, black face, and death.
Jaundice is an acute disease; Zhang Zhongjing says it heals in 18 days. Food/Labor/Gan Jaundice, commonly called "Yellow Puffiness," is chronic. Some persist long. Ancients used Zhen Sha (Needle Sand), Cu Fan (Vinegar Alum) to subdue Liver, and Zhu Mi Zao Rou (Atractylodes, Rice, Jujube Flesh) to assist Spleen. Suitable for robust individuals or laborers. For delicate constitutions, tonification serves as attack. Qinjiao (Radix Gentianae Macrophyllae) alone is excellent for all jaundices, driving damp-heat from Yangming channel outward. Its effect is achieved, nature is mild, not harsh. Do not recklessly use cooling drugs to further injure Spleen/Stomach. Obstructed urination and no sweating indicate Excess. Free urination and sweating indicate Deficiency. White unchanged urine indicates No Heat. Yellow-red urine indicates Damp-Heat. Young and robust with large pulse heals easily. Small pulse, free urination, no thirst indicates survival. Surging pulse, diarrhea, and thirst indicate death. No pulse near Cun Kou (wrist crease), cold nose/mouth, black discoloration indicates death. Thirsty jaundice is hard to treat; non-thirsty is easy. Jaundice toxin entering abdomen with wheezing/fullness indicates death. Elderly with Qi deficiency and faint pulse are hard to cure. Long-standing jaundice turning into Black Jaundice is fatal. For robust individuals, urgently crush Tudigua Gen (Radix Trichosanthis Kirilowii) for 6 liang juice, take at once. Yellow water exits via urine, and healing occurs.
