身体虚弱之人、产妇,以及病后体虚劳损者,都可能出现类似疟疾的寒热症状。必须仔细辨别清楚,才不会误治。这类似疟之证,脉象虚软而数,不像疟疾那样弦实有力,自然可以分辨。戴氏说:寒热发作有固定时间的,是疟疾;没有固定时间的,就不是疟疾。这也是一种很明确的辨别方法,应当深入体会。
少阳经对应东方甲木,所以其脉象主弦。这不仅见于初病,即使是久疟导致正气虚弱,脉象鼓指无力,但弦象依然隐含其中。东垣先生说:“夏季感受暑邪,秋季必定发生疟疾。”暑为热邪,热性流通,怎么会伏藏到秋天呢?一定是因为出汗时受风,或用冷水冲洗汗水,导致暑邪藏在肌肉之间,一半在表,一半在里,正处于少阳经的部位。到了秋天,金气下降,暑邪想进入体内却被阴气阻挡,从而激发出寒冷;暑邪想出体表却被阳气阻挡,从而激发出发热。邪气与正气相争,具有残虐的性质,所以称为疟疾。
初起时头痛身痛,恶寒多而无汗的,适宜用人参败毒散,加入干葛、半夏等药。发热多而有汗出的,适宜用芎苏柴陈汤。发散之后,如果热多寒少,胸膈不宽畅,脉象弦滑,这是痰湿和食积所致。痰食停滞在胃中,导致营卫之气生成的源头闭塞不畅,所以在肌表之中郁结而生热,适宜用柴陈化滞汤。如果口中作渴,是因为邪气由少阳传入膀胱腑,热入膀胱,必然损伤津液,适宜用柴苓汤,引导暑邪从小便排出。然而柴苓汤这一方剂,原本是为小便短少而设立的。如果小便自利,口渴想喝水,说明邪气传入了阳明胃经,适宜用柴胡芍药汤。仲景说:脉象弦数的,属于“风发”,通过饮食调理来制止它。意思是弦数之脉,热极生风,必然克制脾土而损伤津液,由少阳传入阳明,两经合邪,热势加倍炽盛。应当以食物迅速遏制热势,不可单纯依赖药物。梨汁、蔗浆,正是食物中生津止渴的佳品。《内经》所谓“风淫于内,治以甘寒”就是这个道理。如果不使用这些,那么热邪移于胃的,势必上传于肺,形成只有热没有寒的瘅疟;或者传入心包,形成寒多热少的牡疟。能不谨慎吗?
至于疟疾发作停止之后,脉象细无力的,适宜用二母补中汤。如果有痰食未清除干净,适宜用六君健脾汤,或者资生丸之类。如果补益治疗无效,才可以采用截疟法。所采用的截疟药物,应当分气血两条途径。热多脉数的,不耐温补,适宜用柴胡四物汤,如乌梅、何首乌效果极佳。寒多脉缓的,适宜用六君子汤,加入人参五钱。这是一种不截而截的方法。大抵截疟的方法,无非是收敛气血。对于体质壮盛的人,发作三五次后疟势稍减,还可以使用截法。如果是虚弱之人,气道错乱,虚气不归元,强行截断会导致涩滞在其它方面,屡次造成腹胀,不可不仔细考察。
虽然如此,疟疾属热的居多,但也有属寒的,不能固执地认为是热证。凡是当风露宿睡觉,或洗冷水澡,导致阴邪客居在营卫之间,使人寒多热少,脉象洪大弦急但无力。(着眼点在“无力”二字)。仲景的柴胡姜桂汤,真是良方。如果胸中冷感、畏寒、食欲减退,脉象沉弦细的,病位在里,适宜用香砂理中汤。总而言之,一日发作一次的容易治疗,隔日或三日发作的一次难以痊愈,这是因为正气虚弱,运行迟滞,与邪气相遇的时间缓慢。那些停发一天,连续发作两天,或者一天发作多次的,是正气大虚,散乱错杂,大多会导致死亡。发作时间在午后,逐渐提前到午前的,是想要痊愈的征兆;发作时间在午前,逐渐推迟到午后的,是迁延难愈。服药应当在未发作之前进行,因为发作时各经气机紊乱,服药无效。至于饮食,要等到热退身凉一两个时辰左右,才可以酌情给予。如果在带热状态下进食,多会形成疟母。肥甘厚味,尤其应该禁止。(这是调摄的重要言论)
又有疟母这一病症,是老痰和食积停留在胁下,按压有形状,多年不愈。此症脉象弦细无力,很难辨别虚实。一般原则是:积聚形体坚硬巨大,外部没有怯弱的症状,脉象虽然沉细但气机阻滞,不能将邪气送出体外,适宜用柴陈拈痛汤。如果困倦喜卧,声音低小,饮食减少的,适宜用香砂六君子汤,大补元气,不可误用攻伐之药损伤胃气。这一点极需辨别。
瘅疟,就是热疟,只有热而没有寒。脉象滑而有滞涩感的,适宜消食;小便短少的,适宜分利小便;脉弦数且口渴的,适宜生津。不可一概使用大寒的药物。(辨证确切,用药自然有效)只有大渴引饮,汗多,脉象洪大的,如果不使用竹叶石膏汤,一定无法痊愈。这就是少阳阳明两经合邪,上传于肺的情况。
牡疟,就是寒疟,寒多而热轻微,比如七分寒三分热之类。各种书籍都说纯寒无热,这是错误的说法。(这是发表前人未曾发现的问题)。这就是少阳阳明两经合邪,上传于心。邪气进入心包,都城震动,周身津液协力向内支援,重重包裹心包内的邪气,被外部所拒绝,所以导致寒多热少。体表虽然有微冷,但膻中全是邪热,内真热而外假寒。适宜用柴陈汤,加入杏仁、石菖蒲最为巧妙。

In individuals with deficiency constitutions, postpartum women, and those suffering from consumptive weakness after illness, chills and fever resembling malaria may occur. It is imperative to distinguish them clearly to avoid misdiagnosis and mistreatment. The pulse in such malaria-like conditions is deficient, soft, and rapid, lacking the wiry and forceful quality typical of true malaria, which allows for easy differentiation. Dai stated: Chills and fever occurring at fixed intervals indicate malaria; those without fixed intervals do not. This is a clear method of differentiation that requires deep understanding. The Shaoyang (Lesser Yang) channel corresponds to the image of Jia Wood in the East, hence its pulse is primarily wiry. This applies not only to initial stages but also to chronic malaria where righteous qi is deficient; even if the pulse fails to strike the fingers forcefully, the wiry character remains implicitly present. Dongyuan said, "Summer damage by heat pathogens leads to malaria in autumn." Heat is a pathogen of flow and diffusion; how can it remain hidden until autumn? It must be that sweating followed by exposure to wind, or washing sweat with cold water, causes the summer-heat pathogen to lodge in the muscles, half on the exterior and half on the interior, precisely within the Shaoyang region. When autumn's metal energy descends, the summer-heat pathogen attempts to enter but is blocked by yin, triggering chills; when it attempts to exit, it is blocked by yang, triggering fever. The struggle between pathogenic factors and righteous qi has a cruel nature, thus named "malaria" (nue). In the early stage, with headache, body ache, predominant chills, and absence of sweating, Renshen Baidu San (Ginseng Detoxification Powder) added with Ge Gen (Puerariae Radix) and Ban Xia (Pinelliae Rhizoma) is appropriate. With predominant fever and sweating, Xiong Su Chai Chen Tang (Ligusticum, Perilla, Bupleurum, and Tangerine Peel Decoction) is suitable. After dispersing the exterior, if fever predominates over chills, chest and diaphragm feel stuffy, and the pulse is wiry and slippery, this indicates phlegm and food stagnation. Phlegm and food retained in the Stomach block the origin of Ying and Wei (Nutritive and Defensive Qi), causing郁 heat in the muscle layer; Chai Chen Hua Zhi Tang (Bupleurum and Tangerine Peel Stagnation-Resolving Decoction) is indicated. If there is thirst in the mouth, it is because the pathogen has moved from Shaoyang to the Bladder organ; heat entering the Bladder damages fluids, so Chai Ling Tang (Bupleurum and Poria Decoction) should be used to guide summer-heat out via urination. However, Chai Ling Tang was originally designed for scanty urination. If urination is normal but thirst with desire to drink persists, the pathogen has transmitted to the Yangming Stomach channel; Chai Hu Shao Yao Tang (Bupleurum and Peony Decoction) is appropriate. Zhongjing stated, "A wiry and rapid pulse indicates 'wind generation'; stop it through dietary management." A wiry and rapid pulse signifies extreme heat generating wind, which attacks Earth (Spleen/Stomach) and damages fluids, transmitting from Shaoyang to Yangming. With both channels involved, heat intensifies. Food should be used to quickly curb the heat rather than relying solely on medicine. Pear juice and sugarcane syrup are foods that generate fluids. As the *Neijing* states, "For wind rampant internally, treat with sweet and cold substances." Without these, heat moving to the Stomach will likely transmit to the Lungs, resulting in Dan Nue (Feverish Malaria) characterized by fever without chills, or to the Pericardium, resulting in Mu Nue (Cold Malaria) with more chills than fever. One must be cautious.
After the malaria paroxysms cease, if the pulse is fine and weak, Er Mu Bu Zhong Tang (Anemarrhena and Belamcanda Tonifying Middle Decoction) is suitable. If phlegm and food stagnation remain, Liu Jun Zi Jian Pi Tang (Six Gentlemen Spleen-Strengthening Decoction) or Zisheng Wan (Nourishing Life Pill) may be used. If tonification fails, then antimalarial interception methods can be employed. Antimalarial herbs should be selected based on Qi and Blood aspects. For predominant heat and rapid pulse, warm tonification is contraindicated; Chai Hu Si Wu Tang (Bupleurum Four Substances Decoction) is suitable, with W Mei (Mume Fructus) and He Shou Wu (Polygoni Multiflori Radix Praeparata) being highly effective. For predominant chills and slow pulse, Liu Jun Zi Tang (Six Gentlemen Decoction) with five qian of Ren Shen (Ginseng Radix) is appropriate. This is an interception achieved without direct interception. Generally, antimalarial methods aim to consolidate Qi and Blood. In robust individuals, after three to five paroxysms when the malaria trend subsides, interception may still be used. In deficient individuals, however, Qi mechanisms are chaotic, and deficient Qi fails to return to its root; forced interception causes stagnation elsewhere, often leading to abdominal distension. This must be carefully observed.
Although most malaria cases are heat-type, some are cold-type; one must not rigidly assume all are heat. Cases involving sleeping exposed to wind and dew, or bathing in cold water, result in Yin pathogens lodging in Ying and Wei, causing predominant chills and mild fever with a surging, wiry, yet powerless pulse. (Focus on the word "powerless"). Zhongjing's Chai Hu Jiang Gui Tang (Bupleurum, Ginger, and Cinnamon Twig Decoction) is an excellent prescription. If there is coldness in the chest, aversion to cold, and reduced appetite with a deep, wiry, and fine pulse, the disease is internal; Xiang Sha Li Zhong Tang (Amomum and Aucklandia Regulating Middle Decoction) is indicated. In summary, daily paroxysms are easier to treat; every-other-day or every-three-day paroxysms are harder to cure due to deficient righteous qi, sluggish movement, and delayed confrontation with pathogens. Cases with a one-day pause followed by two consecutive days of paroxysms, or multiple paroxysms in one day, indicate severe righteous qi deficiency and chaotic dispersion, often fatal. Paroxysms occurring in the afternoon shifting to earlier times (before noon) signal impending recovery; those starting before noon and shifting later signal prolonged difficulty in cure. Medication should be taken before the onset of paroxysms, as administering during the attack when Qi mechanisms are chaotic is ineffective. Diet should be introduced only after the fever subsides and the body cools for one to two hours. Eating while still carrying heat often leads to "Malaria Mother" (splenic enlargement/mass). Rich, greasy, and strong-flavored foods must be strictly avoided. (These are essential words on regulation.)
"Malaria Mother" refers to old phlegm and food stagnation lodged under the hypochondrium, palpable as a mass, persisting for years. The pulse is wiry, fine, and weak, making differentiation of deficiency and excess difficult. The general rule is: if the mass is hard and large, with no external signs of deficiency, but the pulse is deep and fine indicating Qi stagnation preventing expulsion, Chai Chen Nian Tong Tang (Bupleurum and Tangerine Peel Pain-Relieving Decoction) is suitable. If there is fatigue, preference for lying down, low voice, and reduced diet, Xiang Sha Liu Jun Zi Tang (Amomum and Aucklandia Six Gentlemen Decoction) is used to greatly tonify Yuan Qi. Do not mistakenly use attacking methods that damage Stomach Qi. This distinction is crucial.
Dan Nue (Feverish Malaria) is heat-malaria, featuring fever without chills. If the pulse is slippery with stagnation, resolve food; if urination is scanty, promote diuresis; if wiry, rapid, and thirsty, generate fluids. Do not indiscriminately use major cold agents. (Accurate syndrome differentiation ensures effective medication.) Only in cases of extreme thirst with copious drinking, profuse sweating, and a surging, large pulse, is Zhu Ye Shi Gao Tang (Bamboo Leaf and Gypsum Decoction) indispensable for recovery. This represents combined Shaoyang-Yangming pathology transmitting to the Lungs.
Mu Nue (Cold Malaria) is cold-malaria, with predominant chills and slight fever (e.g., seven parts cold, three parts heat). Many texts claim pure cold without heat, which is erroneous. This is combined Shaoyang-Yangming pathology transmitting to the Heart. Pathogens enter the Pericardium, shaking the capital; whole-body fluids rally inward to support, wrapping the pathogens within the Pericardium, rejected by the exterior, causing more chills than fever. Although the surface feels slightly cold, the Danzhong (Chest Center) is full of pathogenic heat; internally true heat, externally false cold. Chai Chen Tang (Bupleurum and Tangerine Peel Decoction) added with Xing Ren (Armeniacae Semen) and Shi Chang Pu (Acori Tatarinowii Rhizoma) is best.
