一昼夜六七作,其作时有一酸块,自胸膈间直冲上咽喉,情状极恶。遂悉罢诸药,以黄连浓煎取
冷,俟酸块欲上时,以冷黄连汁数滴与之即回。如此六七次,半日许,其块亦除,于是罢药,淡
粥调养。又近三个月,时以立春节旬余。中脘处微有胀急,面带青色,气息喘促。时天气尚寒,
意谓脾土因久病衰弱,木气行令,此肝凌脾,急以索矩三和汤与之,至四日而安。
一妇人年四十余岁,因二十年忧患后心痛,或可按或不可按,食甚减,口渴而不能饮水,形
瘦骨立,心痛止则头痛作,其痛无常处。头痛止则心痛作,夜间全不寐,大便七八日一行.坚小
而黑,而出亦难。累与四物加陈皮、生甘草,前后约百余帖,病虽不增,却无退减。予曰∶此肺
久为火所郁,气不得行,由是血亦蓄塞,遂成污浊,气壅则头痛,血浊不行则心痛,通一病也,
治肺当自愈。遂仿东垣方清空膏例,片芩细切酒炒透,令赤色,为细末,以热白术汤调下,头上
稍汗,如此十余帖,渐渐汗至通身,及膝而止,诸病皆愈。因其膝下无汗,形瘦病久,小便数,
大便涩,两手皆见涩脉,当议补血,以防后患。问其又思水而不饮,遂与四物加陈皮、生甘草、
桃仁、酒芩以补之,遂安。
里实心痛,并见按之满痛为实条。丹溪云∶心痛脉坚实,不大便者下之。

运气 心痛凡热风湿寒燥五气之初,皆能干心而痛,盖心为五脏之主故也。
一曰热邪干心。经云∶少阴司天,热淫所胜,病心痛肺 。又云∶少阴之复,暴喑心痛。
又少阳之胜,热客于胃,烦心心痛。又云∶阳明司天,燥气下临,暴热至甚则心痛。此在泉之
热为痛,治皆以寒剂是也。
二曰寒邪干心。经云∶太阳司天,寒气下临,甚则心痛。又云∶阳明司天之政,四之气,
寒雨降,病心痛。又云∶岁水太过,民病上下中寒,烦心,躁悸,心痛。又云∶岁金不及,炎火乃
行,复则寒雨暴至心痛。又云∶水郁之发,民病寒客心痛。又云∶太阳司天,寒淫所胜,病厥心
痛。又云∶太阳之复,心胃生寒,心痛痞满。又云∶少阳在泉,主胜则热反上行,而客于心,心
痛。盖终之气,寒胜其客也。又云∶岁火不及,寒乃大行,病郁冒蒙昧,心痛。又云∶太阳之胜,
寒厥入胃,则内生心痛。皆治以热剂是也。
三曰风邪干心伤胃。经云∶少阳司天之政,终之气风乃至,心痛。又云∶少阳司天,风行
于地,心痛,胃脘痛,鬲不通。又云∶岁水不及,湿乃大行,复则暴风大发,鬲中痛于心腹。
又云∶木郁之发,民病胃脘当心而痛,鬲咽不通。又云∶厥阴在泉,风淫所胜,心痛支满。又云∶
厥阴司天,风淫所胜,胃脘当心而痛。又云∶厥阴之复厥心痛。又厥阴之胜,胃脘当心而痛,治
皆以凉剂是也。
四曰湿邪干心。经云∶土郁之发,心痛胁 。又云∶太阴在泉,湿淫所胜,病饮积心痛。又云∶
太阴之胜,火气内郁,心痛热格,治皆以热剂是也。
五曰燥邪干心。经云∶阳明之复,善太息,心痛痞满。治以温剂是也。
六曰寒热中于心。经云∶少阴司天之政,寒热凌犯而争于中,寒厥入胃心痛。三之气,大
火行,寒气时至,民病气厥心痛。治分寒热多少调之是也。
厥心痛者,他脏病干之而痛,皆有治也。真心痛者,心脏自病而痛,故夕发旦死,旦发夕死,无
治也。然心脏之经络,有病在标者,其心亦痛,而有治。经云∶心手少阴之脉,是动则病嗌干心
痛,渴而欲饮。又心主手少阴之脉所生病者,心痛掌中热,皆视盛虚热寒陷下取之。又经云∶手
心主之别,名曰内关,去腕二寸,出于两筋之间,实则心痛,取之两筋间也。又云∶邪在心,
则病心痛,喜悲时眩仆,视有余不及,调其俞是也。
〔《灵》〕厥心痛,与背相控,善 ,如从后触其心,伛偻者,肾心痛也,先取京骨、昆仑,发
一昼夜发作六七次,发作时有一块酸性的硬物,从胸膈间直冲上咽喉,情状极其难受。于是停用所有药物,将黄连浓煎后放冷,等到酸性硬物欲上冲时,给患者滴入几滴冷的黄连汁,硬物随即退回。如此反复六七次,约半天时间,硬块也就消除了,于是停药,用淡粥调养。又过了近三个月,正值立春时节十几天后。中脘穴处微微感到胀急,面色发青,呼吸喘促。当时天气尚寒,我认为脾土因久病而衰弱,肝木之气当令,这是肝气侵犯脾土,急忙给予索矩三和汤服用,到第四天病情安定。
一位四十多岁的妇人,因二十年的忧患导致心痛,有时按压疼痛缓解,有时按压则加剧,食欲大减,口渴但不能饮水,身体消瘦如骨立,心痛停止则头痛发作,疼痛部位不固定。头痛停止则心痛发作,夜间完全无法入睡,大便七八天才排一次,粪便坚硬、细小且黑,排出困难。多次给予四物汤加陈皮、生甘草,前后约一百多帖,病情虽未加重,但也未见减退。我说:这是由于肺长期被火邪郁闭,气机不能运行,由此血液也蓄积堵塞,遂成污浊,气壅滞则头痛,血浊不行则心痛,这其实是同一个病,治疗肺脏应当自愈。于是仿照东垣的清空膏方例,将黄芩片细切后用酒炒透,使其呈赤色,研为细末,用热白术汤调服,头上稍出一点汗,如此服用十余帖,渐渐出汗遍及全身,直到膝盖停止,各种病症都痊愈了。因为患者膝下无汗,形体消瘦且病程长久,小便频数,大便涩滞,两手脉象皆见涩脉,应当商议补血,以防后患。询问她是否想喝水但不喝,于是给予四物汤加陈皮、生甘草、桃仁、酒炒黄芩来补益,病情遂安。
里实型心痛,并伴有按压时满痛属于实证。丹溪说:心痛脉象坚实,不大便的,用泻下法。

以上研为末,用面糊做成梧桐子大小的丸剂。小儿疾病,多有诸虫,或因脏腑虚弱而动,或因吃甘甜肥腻食物而动,一动即腹中疼痛,上下攻冲,心痛则哭个不停,合眼仰身扑手,心神烦闷混乱,呕吐涎沫,或吐出清水,四肢瘦弱困倦,面色青黄,饮食虽然进食,但不长肌肉。或寒或热,沉郁默默,不知病痛确切位置。一岁幼儿服五丸,用温浆水送下,加入香油一两点,搅匀服下,米饮也可以,虫子自然排出。

我在宣和年间,常觉得心中多嘈杂,想要喝饮料,又怀疑是虫,随意根据此方所说,第二天排出两条长虫,一条长二尺五寸,头扁阔,尾尖锐,每寸作一节,斑纹如锦缎,另一条全是寸断的。《千金方》说劳倦则生热,热则生虫,心虫叫蛔虫,脾虫叫寸白虫,肾虫如方截丝缕,肝虫如烂杏,肺虫如蚕,都能杀人,只有肺虫最急迫。肺虫居住在肺叶内,侵蚀人的肺系,所以形成瘵疾,咯血声嘶,药物难以到达,治疗很困难。道藏中记载诸虫头都向下行,唯独自初一至初五以前头向上行,所以服药多取月初以前,大概是因为这个原因。

Between one day and night, the condition occurs six or seven times. During an episode, a sour lump rises directly from the chest and diaphragm up to the throat, presenting a very distressing situation. All other medications were then discontinued. Coptidis Rhizoma (Huanglian, 黄连) was decocted strongly, cooled, and when the sour lump was about to rise, a few drops of the cold Coptidis Rhizoma juice were administered, causing the lump to retreat. After repeating this six or seven times, over approximately half a day, the lump disappeared. Medication was then stopped, and nourishment was provided with light rice gruel. Nearly three months later, around ten days after the Start of Spring solar term, there was slight distension and urgency at the Zhongwan (CV12) point, the face appeared bluish, and breathing was panting. The weather was still cold. I reasoned that the Spleen Earth had weakened due to prolonged illness, and the Liver Wood Qi was in command; this is Liver Qi invading the Spleen. I urgently administered Suo Ju San He Tang, and by the fourth day, the patient was stable.
A woman in her forties suffered from Heart Pain (Xintong) after twenty years of worry and anxiety. The pain could sometimes be relieved by pressure and sometimes aggravated by it. Her appetite was significantly reduced, she felt thirsty but could not drink water, and she was emaciated with visible bones. When the Heart Pain ceased, Headache (Tou Tong) would begin, with no fixed location for the pain. When the Headache ceased, the Heart Pain would return. She could not sleep at all at night, and bowel movements occurred only once every seven or eight days; the stool was hard, small, black, and difficult to pass. She had taken roughly over a hundred doses of Siwu Tang (Four Substances Decoction) added with Chenpi (Citri Reticulatae Pericarpium) and raw Gancao (Glycyrrhizae Radix et Rhizoma). Although the condition did not worsen, it did not improve either. I said: This is because the Lung has been long constrained by Fire, preventing Qi from moving, which in turn causes Blood to accumulate and block, becoming turbid. Qi stagnation causes Headache, and turbid Blood failing to circulate causes Heart Pain; these are essentially the same disease. Treating the Lung should lead to self-healing. Therefore, following Dongyuan's Qingkong Gao (Clearing Heaven Paste) formula example, Huangqin (Scutellariae Radix) slices were finely cut, thoroughly stir-fried with wine until reddish, ground into fine powder, and taken mixed with hot Baizhu Tang (Atractylodis Macrocephalae Decoction). Slight sweating on the head occurred. After taking this for more than ten doses, sweating gradually spread to the entire body, stopping at the knees, and all diseases were cured. Because there was no sweating below the knees, the body was emaciated, the disease was chronic, urination was frequent, defecation was obstructed, and both wrists showed a Choppy pulse (Se Mai, 涩脉), blood-nourishing measures should be discussed to prevent future complications. Asking if she desired water but did not drink, I prescribed Siwu Tang added with Chenpi, raw Gancao, Taoren (Persicae Semen), and wine-fried Huangqin to nourish, and she recovered.
Interior Excess type Heart Pain is characterized by fullness and pain upon palpation, indicating Excess. Danxi stated: If the pulse for Heart Pain is firm and solid, and there is constipation, use purgation.
[Luo] Huachong Wan (Parasite-Destroying Pill)
Narthex root (Sheshi, 鹤虱) Areca seed (Binglang, 槟榔) Lead oxide (Hufen, 胡粉 - fried) Toosendan fruit bark (Kuilian gen, 苦楝根 - remove thick bark, each 50 liang) Alum (Baifan, 白矾 - sublimed, 12 liang)
Grind the above into powder, make pills with wheat paste the size of paulownia seeds. Children's diseases often involve various parasites, which may move due to weakness of the Zang-Fu organs or due to consuming sweet and fatty foods. When they move, abdominal pain occurs, attacking up and down. If it attacks the Heart causing pain, the child cries incessantly, closes eyes, arches back, flails hands, feels mental confusion and oppression, vomits saliva or clear water, limbs become emaciated and weak, complexion is blue-yellow. Although food intake continues, muscles do not grow. Symptoms may be cold or hot, dull and silent, with uncertain location of pain. One-year-old infants take five pills, washed down with warm grain water, adding one or two drops of sesame oil, mixed well before administration. Rice drink is also acceptable; the parasites will naturally be expelled.
[Baoming Ji] Miaoxiang Wan treats Heart Pain in men and women, accompanied by strong spasms, convulsions, and fever resembling epilepsy. (Formula see Dryness Section)
For Wind Epilepsy (Feng Xian), guide Miaoxiang Wan with Qianghuo Tang. (Qianghuo Tang formula see Wind Conditions Section.) For Blood Epilepsy (Xue Xian), guide Miaoxiang Wan with Danggui Tang. (Danggui Tang formula see Blood Conditions Section.)
[Danxi] For Parasite Pain, white spots appear on the face, lips are red, and appetite is good. Treatment uses Toosendan root and Tin Ash. If the pulse is firm and solid with constipation, use purgation.
[Luo] Bujin San treats various parasites.
Narthex root (raw) Polyporus (Leiyuan, 雷丸) Calamine (Dingfen, 定粉) Tin Ash (Xihui, 锡灰) (Equal parts)
Grind into powder. Take 3 qian per dose, mix with a little oil and take on an empty stomach. Alternatively, roast one liang of pork, sprinkle the medicine on it, and chew thoroughly. Or, use a feather to sweep 1 qian of Kansui Radix (Gansui, 甘遂) powder and take it with the previous medicine; the parasites will be expelled.
[Bencao] Formula for Taenia (Cunbai Chong). Stir-fry Black Lead Ash (Qianhui, 铅灰), 4 qian per dose. First eat a little dried pork jerky.

Another treatment for Taenia using Tin Ash, Xanthium seed (Wuyi, 芜荑), and Areca seed is excellent.
During the Xuanhe era, I often felt gastric discomfort and wanted to drink, suspecting parasites. I casually followed the methods described in the aforementioned formulas. The next day, I expelled two long worms. One was two chi five cun long, with a broad flat head and sharp tail, segmented every cun, patterned like brocade. The other was entirely broken into segments. *Qianjin Fang* states that labor generates heat, and heat generates parasites. The Heart parasite is called Ascaris (Hui, 蛔); the Spleen parasite is Taenia (Cunbai, 寸白); the Kidney parasite resembles cut threads; the Liver parasite resembles rotten apricots; the Lung parasite resembles silkworms. All can be fatal, but the Lung parasite is most urgent. The Lung parasite resides within the lung lobes, eroding the lung system, thus forming Tuberculosis (Zhai Ji, 瘵疾), characterized by hemoptysis and hoarseness. Medicine cannot reach it easily, making treatment difficult. Daoist texts record that parasite heads generally move downward, except from the first to the fifth day of the lunar month, when they move upward. Therefore, medication is often taken before the beginning of the month, likely for this reason.
Formula to expel Taenia.
Kaolin (Huafen, 画粉) Litharge (Miduoseng, 密陀僧) (Equal parts)
Grind into powder. Take 2 qian per dose, mix with hempseed oil and take on an empty stomach. It will turn into saliva and be expelled shortly.

Mix with flour to make cakes, or eat as cold noodles. After some time, the parasites will be expelled via bowels, about one chi long, with a head resembling a pen tube. No further recurrence. In the tenth year of Zhiyuan, Cui Kang, a messenger, had a daughter suffering from severe Heart Pain nearing death.

[Zihe]* Yang Zhongren, a wine official, suffered from Heart Qi Pain. He loved drinking alcohol. After drinking two or three cups, he had to run around thirty to fifty times. Only when the alcohol dispersed could he return to the table. Drinking up to his usual limit, he would get drunk and stay awake until dawn, vomiting several mouthfuls of clear yellow water, which turned fishy-smelly at night. He stabilized after six or seven days. Dairen said: Vomiting is indicated. He vomited one worm, greenish-yellow, six or seven cun long, with complete mouth, eyes, and nose, eyes covered by membrane, resembling a snake. Yang demonstrated it to others.
*[Zhongjing]* Ascaris disease causes spitting of saliva and Heart Pain, occurring intermittently. If toxic drugs fail, Gancao Fenmi Tang (Licorice, Starch, and Honey Decoction) is the primary treatment.
Licorice (2 liang) Starch (1 liang) Honey (4 liang)
Take the three ingredients with three sheng of water. First decoct Licorice to obtain two sheng, remove dregs. Add starch and honey, stir and mix. Simmer until thin porridge consistency. Take one sheng warm. Stop when cured.
*[Sun Simiao]* In the palace of King Xiang, there was a palace maid favored by the Seventh Taiwei. Suddenly she fell ill; whenever she felt nauseous, she would vomit several worms, which became frequent. The Seventh Taiwei pitied her greatly, and repeated treatments failed. Whenever parasiticidal drugs were used, more worms were vomited. Sun was summoned. Sun said: All six pulses are fine/thin, not indicative of parasites. Although worms are being vomited now, it is due to Cold in the Zang organs causing the worms to feel uneasy, losing their residence in the upper diaphragm, and thus being vomited. Using more parasiticides harms the worms, causing them to feel even more uneasy, hence more worms are vomited. Sun then prescribed medication. Within three to five doses of uniform-colored pills, the vomiting of worms ceased. The next day, Sun was summoned again; the six pulses gradually enlarged, and continuing the previous medication prevented the disease from recurring. Later requested the formula: Sulfur and Prepared Aconite Root (Fuzi, 附子), each 1 liang, ground into powder. Form pills with glutinous rice paste. Take 30 pills per dose with rice drink.

Use Tao Ren Cheng Qi Tang (Peach Kernel and Rhubarb Decoction) to purge it. (Formula see Cold Damage.) In treating any syndrome, one must first ask about daily habits. For instance, Heart Pain caused by a habit of eating hot foods, leading to dead Blood stagnating in the stomach causing pain, should be treated with Tao Ren Cheng Qi Tang to purge. Remember, for mild cases, use Chinese chive juice and Platycodon root, which can lift Qi, and combine them with Blood-invigorating medicines.
