出者,秋成风疟。
〔《素》〕黄帝问曰∶夫 疟皆生于风,其蓄作有时者,何也?岐伯曰∶疟之始发也,先起于毫毛,伸欠乃
作,寒栗鼓颔,腰脊俱痛,寒去则内外皆热,头痛如破,渴欲饮冷。帝曰∶何气使然,愿闻其道?岐伯对曰∶
阴阳上下交争,虚实更作,阴阳相移也。阳并于阴,则阴实而阳虚。阳明虚,则寒栗鼓颔也。巨阳虚,则腰背
头项痛。三阳俱虚,则阴气胜,阴气胜,则骨寒而痛。寒生于内,故中外皆寒。阳盛则外热,阴虚则内热,内
外皆热,则喘而渴,故饮冷也。此皆得之夏伤于暑,热气盛,藏于皮肤之内,肠胃之外,此荣气之所舍也。此
令人汗空疏,腠理开,因得秋气,汗出遇风,及得之以浴,水气舍于皮肤之内,与卫气并居。卫气者,昼日行
于阳,夜行于阴,此气得阳而外出,得阴而内薄,内外相薄,是以日作。帝曰∶其间日而作者,何也?歧伯曰∶
其气之舍深,内薄于阴,阳气独发,阴邪内着,阴与阳争不得出,是以间日而作也。帝曰∶善。其作日晏与其
日早者,何气使然也?歧伯曰∶邪气客于风府,循膂而下,卫气一日一夜大会于风府,其明日日下一节,故其
作也晏,此先客于脊背也,每至于风府,则腠理开,腠理开则邪气入,邪气入则病作,以此作日稍益晏也。其
出于风府,日下一节,二十五日(“五”一作“一”。)下至 骨,二十六日(“六”一作“二”,)入于脊内,
注于伏膂(一作“伏中”。)之脉,其气上行,九日出于缺盆之中,其气日高,故作日益早也。其间日发者,
由邪气内薄于五脏,横连募原也,其道远,其气深,其行迟,不能与卫气俱行,不得皆出,故间日乃作也。
(《灵枢》经云∶疟者内簿于五脏,横连募原,其道远,其气深,其行迟,不能日作,故次日乃蓄积而作焉。
详“蓄积”二字,则作一日之义明矣。始明邪气未盛,未与卫气相当,故未作,必候蓄积与卫气相当,故作焉。)
帝曰∶夫子言卫气每至于风府,腠理乃发,发则邪气入,入则病作。今卫气日下一节,其气之始发也,不
当风汗,其日作者奈何?歧伯曰∶此邪气客于头项,循膂而下者也。故虚实不同,邪中异所,则不得当其风府
也。故邪中于头项者。气至头项而病。中于背者,气至背而病。中于腰脊者,气至腰脊而病。中于手足者,气
至手足而病。卫气之所在,与邪气相合,则病作。故风无常府,卫气之所发,必开其腠理,邪气之所舍,则其
府也。帝曰;疟先寒而后热者,何也?歧伯曰∶夏伤于大暑,其汗大出,腠理开发,因遇夏气凄沧之水寒,藏
于腠理皮肤之中,秋伤于风,则病成矣。夫寒者,阴气也。风者,阳气也。先伤于寒,而后伤于风,故先寒而
后热也,病以时作,名曰寒疟。帝曰∶先热而后寒者,何也?此先伤于风,而后伤于寒,故先热而后寒也,亦
以时作,名曰温疟。帝曰∶夫病温疟与寒疟,而皆安舍,舍于何藏?岐伯曰∶温疟得之冬中于风,寒气藏于骨
髓之中,至春则阳气大发,邪气不能自出,因遇大暑,脑髓烁,肌肉消,腠理发泄,或有所用力,邪气与汗皆
出,此病藏于肾,其气先从内出之于外者也。如是者,阴虚而阳盛,阳盛则热矣,衰则气复反入,入则阳虚,
阳虚则寒矣。故先热而后寒,名曰温疟。其但热不寒者,阴气先绝,阳气独发,则少气烦冤,手足热而欲呕,
名曰瘅疟。帝曰∶瘅疟何如?岐伯曰∶瘅疟者,肺素有热,气盛于身,厥逆上冲,中气实而不外泄,因有所用
力,腠理开,风寒舍于皮肤之内分肉之间而发,发则阳气盛,阳气盛而不衰则病矣。其气不及于阴,故但热而
不寒,气内藏于心,而外舍于分肉之间,令人消烁肌肉,故名曰瘅疟。帝曰∶疟未发,其应何如?歧伯曰∶
疟气者,必更盛更虚,当气之所在也,病在阳则热而脉躁,在阴则寒而脉静,极则阴阳俱衰。卫气相离,故病
得休,卫气集,则复病也。
卫与邪相并则病作,与邪相离则病休。其并于阴则寒,并于阳则热。离于阴则寒已,离于阳则热已。至
次日又集而并合,则复病也。
帝曰∶时有间二日,或至数日发,或渴或不渴,其故何也?岐伯曰∶其间日者,邪气与卫气客于六腑,而
有时相失,不能相得,故休数日乃作也。疟者,阴阳更胜也,或甚或不甚,故或渴或不渴。(以上俱疟论篇)
帝曰∶火热复,恶寒发热,有如疟状,或一日发,或间数日发,其故何也?岐伯曰∶胜复之气,会遇之时
有多少也。阴气多而阳气少,则其发日远。阳气多而阴气少,则其发日近。此胜复相薄,盛衰之节也。疟亦同
法。(至真要大论)
帝曰∶论言夏伤于暑,秋必病疟,今疟不必应者,何也?岐伯曰∶此应四时者也。其病异形者,反四时也。
其以秋病者寒甚,以冬病者寒不甚,以春病者恶风,以夏病者多汗。帝曰∶夫风之与疟,相似同类,而风独常
在,疟则有时而休者,何也?岐伯曰∶风气留其处,故常在。疟气随经络沉以内薄,故卫气应乃作。(疟论篇)
〔《保》〕夏伤于暑,秋必病疟。盖伤之浅也,近而暴。伤之重也,远而深。 疟者,久疟也。是知夏伤于
暑,湿热闭藏,而不能发泄于外,邪气内行,至秋而发为疟也。初不知何经受病,随其受而取之。有中三阳者,
有中三阴者。大抵经中邪气,其症各殊,同伤寒治之也。故《内经》曰∶五脏皆有疟,其治各别。在太阳经者,
谓之风疟,治多汗之。在阳明经者,谓之热疟,治多下之。在少阳经者,谓之风热疟,治多和之。此三阳受病,
皆谓暴疟也。发在夏至后处暑前者,此乃伤之浅者,近而暴也。在阴经者,则不分三经,皆谓之温疟,宜以太
阴经论之。其发处暑后冬至前者,此乃伤之重者,远而深也。 疟者,老疟也,故谓之久疟。

【原文翻译】
如果体内的汗液没有排尽,身体虚弱而正气被耗损,腠理(皮肤纹理及汗孔)已经闭塞,就会引发风疟。(参见《素问·生气通天论》)秋季容易发生风疟。(全文见《素问·五脏生成篇》)。如果在夏季感受暑邪却不出汗,到了秋天就会形成风疟。
〔《素问·疟论》〕黄帝问道:疟疾都是由风邪引起的,但它们发作和停止都有固定的时间,这是为什么呢?岐伯回答说:疟疾刚开始发作时,首先表现为毫毛竖立,接着出现伸腰打哈欠,然后开始发冷颤抖、下巴打颤,腰部脊柱都感到疼痛;寒冷过去之后,体内体外都变得发热,头痛得像要裂开一样,口渴想喝冷水。黄帝说:是什么气导致这样的呢?我想听听其中的道理。岐伯回答说:这是阴阳之气上下交争,虚实交替变化,阴阳之气相互转移的结果。阳气并入阴分,则阴分实而阳分虚。阳明经气虚,就会出现发冷颤抖、下巴打颤的症状。太阳经气虚,就会出现腰背头项部的疼痛。三阳经(太阳、阳明、少阳)之气都虚,则阴气胜,阴气胜则骨髓寒冷而疼痛。寒冷生于内部,所以内外都感到寒冷。阳气盛则体表发热,阴气虚则体内发热,内外都发热,就会导致气喘和口渴,所以想喝冷水。这些症状都是因为夏天受了暑邪,热气旺盛,藏在皮肤之内、肠胃之外,这是营气(行于脉中的精气)所居留的地方。这使人汗孔疏松,腠理开放,因此容易受到秋气的侵袭,出汗时遇到风邪,或者洗澡时水气侵入停留在皮肤之内,与卫气(行于脉外的护卫之气)共同居住。卫气白天运行于阳分,夜晚运行于阴分,这种邪气随着卫气进入阳分就向外发散,进入阴分就向内迫近,内外相互搏结,所以每天发作。黄帝说:那些隔一天发作一次的,是什么原因呢?岐伯说:因为邪气潜伏的部位较深,向内迫近阴分,阳气单独外发,阴邪内着,阴气与阳气相争但不能外出,所以隔一天发作一次。黄帝说:好。为什么有的发作时间越来越晚,有的越来越早,是什么气导致的呢?岐伯说:邪气客居在风府穴,沿着脊柱向下行走,卫气一天一夜在风府穴大会合,第二天卫气下行一节脊椎,所以发作时间推迟,这是因为邪气先客居在脊背。每当卫气到达风府穴时,腠理就开放,腠理开放则邪气侵入,邪气侵入则疾病发作,因此发作时间逐渐推迟。邪气从风府穴出发,每天下行一节,二十五天(“五”字一作“一”字)下至骶骨,第二十六天(“六”字一作“二”字),进入脊柱内部,注入伏膂(一作“伏中”)之脉,邪气向上运行,九天之后出于缺盆穴,邪气位置越来越高,所以发作时间日益提前。那些隔日发作的,是因为邪气向内迫近五脏,横向连及募原(脏腑之间的膜原),路径遥远,邪气深沉,运行缓慢,不能与卫气同时运行,不能完全外出,所以隔天才发作。(《灵枢》经文说:疟疾的邪气内迫于五脏,横向连及募原,路径遥远,邪气深沉,运行缓慢,不能每天发作,所以要等到第二天积蓄力量后才发作。详细考察“蓄积”二字,就知道发作一天的含义很明确了。起初说明邪气未盛,未与卫气相当,所以不发作,必须等到邪气蓄积到与卫气相当时,才发作。)
黄帝说:先生讲卫气每次到达风府穴,腠理就开放,开放则邪气侵入,侵入则疾病发作。现在卫气每天下行一节,邪气开始发作时,并不一定在风府穴,那为什么有的每天发作呢?岐伯说:这是因为邪气客居在头项部,沿着脊柱向下行走的缘故。所以虚实不同,邪气中伤的部位不同,就不一定都在风府穴发病。因此,邪气中伤头项部的,卫气到达头项部则发病;中伤背部的,卫气到达背部则发病;中伤腰脊的,卫气到达腰脊则发病;中伤手足的,卫气到达手足则发病。卫气所在之处,与邪气相合,疾病就发作。所以风邪没有固定的发病部位,卫气所发的地方,必定是腠理开泄之处,邪气所居留的地方,就是它的发病部位。黄帝说:疟疾先发冷而后发热的,是什么原因呢?岐伯说:夏天受了大暑之邪,大汗淋漓,腠理开发,如果遇到夏季清凉的水寒之气,寒气藏在腠理皮肤之中,秋天又伤了风邪,病就形成了。寒,属于阴气;风,属于阳气。先伤于寒,后伤于风,所以先发冷而后发热,疾病按时发作,名叫寒疟。黄帝说:先发热而后发冷的,是什么原因呢?这是先伤于风,后伤于寒,所以先发冷而后发热,也按时发作,名叫温疟。黄帝说:患温疟和寒疟的病,邪气藏在哪里,舍于哪个脏腑?岐伯说:温疟是由于冬天受了风邪,寒气藏在骨髓之中,到了春天阳气大发,邪气不能自行排出,如果遇到大暑天气,脑髓被灼烧,肌肉消瘦,腠理发泄,或者有所用力劳作,邪气随汗液一起排出,这种病藏于肾,其气先从内部发出到外部。像这样的情况,阴虚而阳盛,阳盛则发热,衰退时气又反过来入内,入内则阳虚,阳虚则发冷。所以先发冷而后发热,名叫温疟。只有发热而没有寒冷的,是阴气先绝,阳气独发,就会感到气短、心中烦闷冤屈,手足发热且想呕吐,名叫瘅疟(dàn nüè,一种但热不寒的疟疾)。黄帝说:瘅疟怎么样?岐伯说:瘅疟患者,肺中素有热,气盛于全身,气机厥逆上冲,中焦气实而不能外泄,因为有所用力劳作,腠理开放,风寒之气留在皮肤之内、分肉之间而发病,发病时阳气盛,阳气盛而不衰减则生病。其气不及于阴分,所以只发热而不发冷,气内藏于心,而外舍于分肉之间,使人肌肉消烁,所以名叫瘅疟。黄帝说:疟疾未发作时,脉象有什么表现?岐伯说:疟疾之气,必然有时偏盛有时偏虚,当气所在的地方,病在阳分则发热而脉躁动,在阴分则发冷而脉静止,极盛时阴阳都衰败。卫气与邪气分离,所以疾病得以休止,卫气聚集,则疾病复发。
卫气与邪气相并则疾病发作,与邪气分离则疾病休止。并合于阴分则发冷,并合于阳分则发热。离开阴分则冷止,离开阳分则热止。到了第二天又聚集并合,则疾病再次发作。
黄帝说:有时候隔两天发作,或者几天发作一次,有的口渴有的不口渴,原因是什么呢?岐伯说:那些隔日发作的,是因为邪气与卫气客居在六腑,有时失去联系,不能相得,所以休息几天才发作。疟疾,是阴阳之气交替胜负,有的严重有的不严重,所以有的口渴有的不口渴。(以上均出自《素问·疟论》)
黄帝说:火热之气反复,恶寒发热,像疟疾的样子,有时一天发作,有时隔几天发作,原因是什么呢?岐伯说:胜复之气(指五行之气太过与不及的相互制约关系),相遇的时间有多有少。阴气多而阳气少,则发作间隔时间长。阳气多而阴气少,则发作间隔时间短。这是胜复之气相互搏击,盛衰节律的表现。疟疾也遵循同样的规律。(出自《素问·至真要大论》)
黄帝说:医书说夏天伤于暑气,秋天必定得疟疾,现在疟疾不一定应验,为什么呢?岐伯说:这是顺应四时变化的。病情形态不同的,是违背了四时规律。在秋天发病的,寒气重;在冬天发病的,寒气不重;在春天发病的,怕风;在夏天发病的,多汗。黄帝说:风邪与疟疾,相似同类,但风邪常在,疟疾却有间歇期,为什么呢?岐伯说:风邪停留在局部,所以常在。疟疾之气顺着经络沉入体内迫近脏腑,所以卫气应时而作。(出自《素问·疟论》)
〔《保命集》〕夏天伤于暑气,秋天必定得疟疾。这是因为受伤轻浅,发病急暴。受伤深重,发病迟缓而深入。疟疾,是指久疟。由此可知,夏天伤于暑气,湿热闭藏,不能发泄于外,邪气内行,到了秋天就发为疟疾。起初不知道是哪条经脉受病,根据受病的经脉来治疗。有中三阳经的,有中三阴经的。大致来说,经络中的邪气,症状各不相同,都像治疗伤寒那样处理。所以《内经》说:五脏都有疟疾,治疗方法各不相同。在太阳经的,叫作风疟,治疗多用发汗法。在阳明经的,叫作热疟,治疗多用攻下法。在少阳经的,叫作风热疟,治疗多用和解法。这三阳经受病,都叫作暴疟。发作在夏至后、处暑前的,这是受伤轻浅的,发病急暴。在阴经的,则不分三条经脉,都叫作温疟,应该按太阴经来论述。发作在处暑后、冬至前的,这是受伤深重的,发病迟缓而深入。疟疾,是老疟疾,所以叫作久疟。
桂枝羌活汤:治疗疟疾在处暑前后,头痛项强,脉浮,恶风有汗。
组成:桂枝、羌活、防风、甘草(炙,各半两)。
制法用法:以上药物捣成粗末,每次服用半两,加水一盏半,煎至一盏,温服,在预计发作前服用。如果呕吐,加半夏曲。
疟疾头痛项强,脉浮,恶风无汗的,宜用麻黄羌活汤。
组成:麻黄、羌活、防风、甘草(炙,各半两)。
制法用法:同前法服用。如果呕吐,加等分的半夏曲。
治疗疟疾身热目痛,热多寒少,脉长,睡卧不安,先用大柴胡汤攻下,以轻微腹泻为度。如果攻下后外部微邪未尽,宜用白芷汤以清除剩余邪气。
白芷汤
组成:白芷、知母(各一两),石膏(四两)。
制法用法:以上药物捣成粗末,同前法服用。
治疗疟疾没有其他症状,隔日发作,先发冷后发热,冷少热多,宜用桂枝石膏汤。
组成:桂枝(五钱),石膏、知母(各一两半),黄芩(一两)。
制法用法:以上药物捣成粗末,分作三次服用,加水半盏,同煎服用。隔日发作的,说明邪气潜伏较深,如果外部邪气已罢,内部邪气未除,再行攻下。在卯时至午时发作的,宜用大柴胡汤攻下。在午时至酉时发作的,知道邪气在内,宜用大承气汤攻下。在酉时至子时发作的,或至寅时发作的,知道邪气在血分,宜用桃仁承气汤攻下。上述攻下药,以轻微腹泻为度,随后用小柴胡汤清除微弱的邪气。
治疗疟疾寒热剧烈发作,不论先后,这是太阳阳明合病,叫作交争,寒热发作时必定战栗动摇。经书说:热胜则动。发热则必定出汗。经书说:出汗后病不愈,知道是热证。这是阳盛阴虚的证候,治疗应当内实外虚,如果不治,恐怕日久传入阴经,宜用桂枝芍药汤主治。
组成:桂枝(二钱),黄芪、知母、芍药、石膏(各半两)。
制法用法:以上药物捣成粗末,每次五七钱,用水煎服。
如果服用前面的药后,寒热反而加重,知道是太阳、阳明、少阳三阳合病,宜用桂枝黄芩汤来和解。
组成:甘草(四钱半),石膏(五钱),知母(五钱),桂枝(二钱),柴胡(一两二钱),黄芩(四钱半),人参(四钱半),半夏(四钱)。
制法用法:以上药物捣成粗末,同煎服用,服药后如果外部邪气已罢,内部邪气未除,用大柴胡汤、大承气汤等攻下。
〔《局方》〕双解饮子:治疗疟疾,辟除瘴气,神效。
组成:肉豆蔻、草豆蔻(各二个。一个用水和面裹起来煨熟,一个生用),浓朴(二寸,一半用生姜汁浸透后炙,一半生用),甘草(大者二两,一半炙,一半生用),生姜(二块,如枣大小的一块,湿纸包裹煨熟,一块生用)。
制法用法:以上药物各自咬碎。每次取一半量,用水一碗,煎至一大盏,去渣,空腹温服。(李东垣说:秋末暑气衰退,患热疟,知其有寒。局方使用双解饮子是合适的,知道此方治疗寒疟。)

[English Translation]
If the body's sweat is not fully discharged, the form becomes weak and the vital energy is scorched, the acupoints and pores are already closed, wind malaria will develop. (See *Suwen: Treatise on Shengqi Tongtian*). In autumn, one is prone to wind malaria. (The full text is in *Wuzang*). If summer heat causes sweating but no sweat is released, wind malaria will form in autumn.
*[Suwen: Treatise on Malaria]* The Yellow Emperor asked: "Malaria is all caused by wind pathogen, yet its accumulation and发作 (onset) occur at specific times. Why is this?" Qibo replied: "When malaria first begins, it starts with the standing of fine hairs, followed by stretching and yawning. Then chills and trembling occur, with the jaw quivering, and pain in the waist and spine. When the cold subsides, both interior and exterior become hot, causing headache as if splitting, thirst, and a desire to drink cold water." The Emperor said: "What qi causes this? I wish to hear the principle." Qibo answered: "It is the contention between Yin and Yang above and below, the alternation of deficiency and excess, and the shifting of Yin and Yang. When Yang merges into Yin, Yin becomes excess and Yang becomes deficient. Deficiency of Yangming leads to chills and jaw quivering. Deficiency of Juyang (Taiyang) leads to pain in the lower back, back, head, and neck. When all three Yang meridians are deficient, Yin qi prevails; when Yin qi prevails, the bones become cold and painful. Cold originates from within, hence both interior and exterior feel cold. Excess Yang leads to external heat, while deficiency Yin leads to internal heat. When both interior and exterior are hot, panting and thirst occur, hence the desire to drink cold water. All these result from summer injury by summer heat. The heat qi is abundant, hiding inside the skin and outside the stomach/intestines, where Ying Qi resides. This causes sweat pores to be loose and interstices open. Consequently, autumn qi enters; upon sweating and encountering wind, or bathing, water qi settles inside the skin, residing together with Wei Qi. Wei Qi travels through Yang during the day and Yin at night. This pathogen goes out with Yang and presses inward with Yin. The mutual pressing of interior and exterior causes daily onset." The Emperor said: "Why do some cases occur every other day?" Qibo said: "Because the pathogen resides deeply, pressing inward toward Yin. Yang qi alone issues forth, while Yin pathogen adheres internally. Yin and Yang contend but cannot exit, hence the every-other-day onset." The Emperor said: "Excellent. Why do some cases start later each day, and others earlier? What qi causes this?" Qibo said: "The pathogen lodges in Fengfu, descending along the Du meridian. Wei Qi gathers at Fengfu once a day and night. The next day, it descends one vertebral segment, so the onset is delayed. This is because the pathogen first lodged in the back. Whenever it reaches Fengfu, the interstices open; when they open, the pathogen enters; when it enters, the disease acts. Thus, the onset time gradually delays. From Fengfu, it descends one segment daily. After twenty-five days ('five' is read as 'one' in some versions), it reaches the bone. On the twenty-sixth day ('six' is read as 'two'), it enters the spine, pouring into the Fulu (or Fuzhong) vessels. The qi ascends and emerges from Quepen after nine days. As the qi rises higher, the onset becomes progressively earlier. Cases occurring every other day occur because the pathogen presses inward to the five Zang organs and horizontally connects to the Mu Yuan (Diaphragm). The path is long, the qi is deep, and its movement is slow. It cannot travel with Wei Qi and cannot fully exit, hence it occurs every other day. (*Lingshu* states: 'Malaria pathogen presses inward to the five Zang and horizontally connects to Mu Yuan. The path is long, the qi is deep, and movement is slow, so it cannot occur daily. It accumulates and acts the next day.' Examining the term 'accumulate' clarifies that it acts after one day. Initially, the pathogen is not strong enough to match Wei Qi, so it does not act. It must wait until it accumulates to match Wei Qi before acting.")
The Emperor said: "You stated that whenever Wei Qi reaches Fengfu, the interstices open, allowing the pathogen to enter and cause disease. Now, since Wei Qi descends one segment daily, and the initial onset may not be at Fengfu, why do some cases occur daily?" Qibo said: "This is because the pathogen lodges in the head and neck, descending along the Du meridian. Therefore, depending on deficiency/excess and the site of invasion, it does not necessarily manifest at Fengfu. If the pathogen invades the head/neck, disease occurs when Wei Qi reaches there. If it invades the back, disease occurs when Wei Qi reaches the back. If it invades the waist/spine, disease occurs when Wei Qi reaches there. If it invades the limbs, disease occurs when Wei Qi reaches there. Wherever Wei Qi is, and where it combines with the pathogen, the disease acts. Thus, Wind has no fixed 'Fengfu' (gate/site); wherever Wei Qi issues and opens the interstices, and where the pathogen resides, that is its gate." The Emperor said: "Why does malaria sometimes present with chills first and then fever?" Qibo said: "Summer injury by severe heat causes profuse sweating and open interstices. If one encounters cold water/qi in summer, the cold hides in the interstices and skin. Autumn injury by wind completes the disease. Cold is Yin qi; Wind is Yang qi. Injury by cold first, then wind, results in chills first, then fever. Occurring at set times, it is named Cold Malaria." The Emperor said: "Why fever first and then chills?" Qibo said: "Injury by wind first, then cold, results in fever first, then chills. Occurring at set times, it is named Warm Malaria." The Emperor said: "Where do Warm Malaria and Cold Malaria lodge, and in which Zang organ?" Qibo said: "Warm Malaria results from winter wind injury. Cold qi hides in the marrow. In spring, Yang qi expands greatly, but the pathogen cannot exit. Encountering great summer heat, the brain marrow is scorched, muscles waste, and interstices open. With exertion, the pathogen exits with sweat. This disease lodges in the Kidney, with qi issuing from interior to exterior. In such cases, Yin is deficient and Yang is excessive. Excess Yang causes heat. When it declines, qi returns inward, causing Yang deficiency and cold. Hence, chills follow fever, named Warm Malaria. Cases with only heat and no chills occur when Yin qi is exhausted and Yang qi issues alone. This causes shortness of breath, vexation, heat in hands/feet, and nausea, named Dan Malaria (Cao Malaria)." The Emperor said: "Describe Dan Malaria." Qibo said: "Dan Malaria patients have latent lung heat, with abundant qi in the body. Rebellious qi rushes upward, middle jiao is full but cannot vent. With exertion, interstices open, and wind-cold lodges between skin and muscle layers. Upon onset, Yang qi becomes excessive. If Yang remains excessive without decline, disease persists. The qi does not reach Yin, hence only heat, no chills. The qi stores in the Heart and lodges externally in the muscle layers, wasting muscles, hence named Dan Malaria." The Emperor said: "What is the response when malaria has not yet started?" Qibo said: "Malaria qi alternates between excess and deficiency. Wherever the qi is located: if in Yang, there is heat and rapid pulse; if in Yin, there is chills and quiet pulse. At the extreme, both Yin and Yang decline. Wei Qi separates from the pathogen, so the disease rests. When Wei Qi gathers, the disease recurs."
When Wei Qi combines with the pathogen, disease acts; when it separates, disease rests. Combining with Yin causes chills; combining with Yang causes heat. Separating from Yin stops chills; separating from Yang stops heat. On the next day, they gather and combine again, causing recurrence.
The Emperor said: "Sometimes it occurs every two days, or several days. Some are thirsty, some are not. Why?" Qibo said: "In every-other-day cases, the pathogen and Wei Qi reside in the Six Fu organs but sometimes miss each other, failing to interact, hence resting for several days before acting. Malaria is the alternating victory of Yin and Yang. Sometimes severe, sometimes mild, hence sometimes thirsty, sometimes not. (From *Treatise on Malaria*)"
The Emperor said: "Fire and heat repeat, with aversion to cold and fever, resembling malaria. Sometimes daily, sometimes every few days. Why?" Qibo said: "The meeting of Victory and Repayment Qi varies in quantity. More Yin and less Yang means distant onset intervals. More Yang and less Yin means close onset intervals. This is the thin interaction of Victory and Repayment, the rhythm of abundance and decline. Malaria follows the same law. (From *Zhizhen Yao Da Lun*)"
The Emperor said: "Texts say summer heat injury leads to autumn malaria. Now, malaria does not always correspond. Why?" Qibo said: "This corresponds to the Four Seasons. Diseases with different forms violate the seasons. Autumn onset indicates severe cold. Winter onset indicates mild cold. Spring onset indicates wind aversion. Summer onset indicates profuse sweating." The Emperor said: "Wind and Malaria are similar and of the same category. Why is Wind constant, while Malaria has intervals?" Qibo said: "Wind pathogen stays in its location, hence constant. Malaria qi sinks along meridians and presses inward, hence it acts only when Wei Qi responds. (From *Treatise on Malaria*)"
*[Baoming Ji]* Summer heat injury leads to autumn malaria. Light injury is near and sudden. Heavy injury is distant and deep. Malaria refers to chronic malaria. Thus, summer heat injury causes damp-heat to hide and fail to vent outward. Pathogen moves inward and manifests in autumn. Initially, one does not know which meridian is affected; treat according to the affected meridian. Some affect the Three Yang meridians; some affect the Three Yin meridians. Generally, pathogens in the meridians present with distinct symptoms, treated similarly to Cold Damage. Thus, *Neijing* states: "All five Zang organs have malaria, with distinct treatments." In Taiyang, it is called Wind Malaria, treated mostly with sweating. In Yangming, it is called Heat Malaria, treated mostly with purging. In Shaoyang, it is called Wind-Heat Malaria, treated mostly with harmonizing. These Three Yang diseases are called Acute Malaria. Onset after Summer Solstice and before End of Heat indicates light injury, near and sudden. In Yin meridians, regardless of the specific meridian, it is called Warm Malaria, discussed under Taiyin. Onset after End of Heat and before Winter Solstice indicates heavy injury, distant and deep. Malaria here refers to old/chronic malaria, hence called Long-term Malaria.
**Guizhi Qianghuo Tang**: Treats malaria around End of Heat, with headache, stiff neck, floating pulse, wind aversion, and sweating.
Ingredients: Guizhi (Cinnamon Twig), Qianghuo (Notopterygii Rhizoma), Fangfeng (Saposhnikoviae Radix), Gancao (Licorice Root, honey-fried). Each half liang.
Preparation: Coarse powder. Take half liang per dose, add 1.5 cups water, boil to 1 cup. Take warm. Administer before expected onset. Add Banxia Qu (Pinellia Fermented Powder) if vomiting.
For malaria with headache, stiff neck, floating pulse, wind aversion, and NO sweating, use **Mahuang Qianghuo Tang**.
Ingredients: Mahuang (Ephedrae Herba), Qianghuo, Fangfeng, Gancao (honey-fried). Each half liang.
Preparation: Same as above. Add equal parts Banxia Qu if vomiting.
For malaria with body heat, eye pain, more heat than chills, long pulse, and restlessness, first purge with **Dachaihu Tang**, aiming for mild diarrhea. If exterior pathogen remains after purging, use **Baizhi Tang** to clear remaining pathogen.
**Baizhi Tang**
Ingredients: Baizhi (Angelicae Dahuricae Radix), Zhimu (Anemarrhenae Rhizoma). Each 1 liang. Shigao (Gypsum Fibrosum). 4 liang.
Preparation: Coarse powder. Same method as above.
For malaria with no other symptoms, every-other-day onset, chills first then heat, less chills more heat, use **Guizhi Shigao Tang**.
Ingredients: Guizhi (5 qian). Shigao, Zhimu (each 1.5 liang). Huangqin (Scutellariae Radix) (1 liang).
Preparation: Coarse powder. Divide into three doses. Add 0.5 cup water, decoct together. For every-other-day cases, pathogen resides deeply. If exterior pathogen is resolved but interior remains, purge again. Onset from Mao to Wu hours: Purge with Dachaihu Tang. Onset from Wu to You hours: Pathogen is interior, purge with Dachengqi Tang. Onset from You to Zi hours, or Yin hours: Pathogen is in Blood, purge with Tao Ren Chengqi Tang. For the above purgatives, aim for mild diarrhea, then use Xiaochaihu Tang to clear residual pathogen.
For severe malaria chills and fever, regardless of order, this is Taiyang-Yangming Combined Disease, called "Contention." Chills and fever cause trembling. Text says: "Heat excess causes movement." Fever causes sweating. Text says: "Sweating without cure indicates Heat." This is Yang Excess and Yin Deficiency. Treatment should address interior excess and exterior deficiency. Without treatment, it may transmit to Yin meridians over time. Use **Guizhi Shaoyao Tang**.
Ingredients: Guizhi (2 qian). Huangqi (Astragali Radix), Zhimu, Shaoyao (Paeoniae Radix Alba), Shigao. Each half liang.
Preparation: Coarse powder. 5-7 qian per dose, decoct in water.
If chills/fever worsen after taking previous medicine, it is Taiyang-Yangming-Shaoyang Three Yang Combined Disease. Use **Guizhi Huangqin Tang** to harmonize.
Ingredients: Gancao (4.5 qian). Shigao (5 qian). Zhimu (5 qian). Guizhi (2 qian). Chaihu (Bupleuri Radix) (1.2 liang). Huangqin (4.5 qian). Renshen (Ginseng Radix) (4.5 qian). Banxia (Pinelliae Rhizoma) (4 qian).
Preparation: Coarse powder. Decoct together. If exterior resolves but interior remains, use Dachaihu Tang or Dachengqi Tang to purge.
For malaria around End of Heat to Winter Solstice, refer to Chronic Malaria methods.
*[Jufang]* **Shuangjie Yinzi**: Treats malaria, dispels miasma, miraculous effect.
Ingredients: Roudoukou (Myristicae Semen), Caodoukou (Cardamomi Fructus). Each 2 pods. One wrapped in dough and baked; one raw. Houpo (Magnoliae Officinalis Cortex) (2 cun). Half soaked in ginger juice and fried; half raw. Gancao (large root, 2 liang). Half fried; half raw. Shengjiang (Zingiberis Rhizoma Recens) (2 pieces, date-sized). One wrapped in wet paper and baked; one raw.
Preparation: Chew/break each ingredient. Take half per dose. Add 1 bowl water, boil to 1 large cup. Strain. Take warm on empty stomach. (Li Dongyuan notes: Late autumn, summer heat fades, treating Heat Malaria implies underlying cold. Jufang's Shuangjie Yinzi is appropriate, indicating this formula treats Cold Malaria.)
*[Baoming Ji]* For malaria with preceding symptoms, if nocturnal onset, use **Mahuang Huangqin Tang**.
Ingredients: Mahuang (1 liang, remove nodes). Gancao (fried, 3 qian). Tao Ren (Peach Kernel) (30 kernels, peel). Huangqin (5 qian). Gui (Cinnamomi Ramulus) (2.5 qian).
Preparation: Fine powder. Follow previous administration. Tao Ren is bitter, sweet, pungent. Liver is the sea of blood. Blood pathogen dries Liver Qi. Text: "Liver dislikes constraint; eat sweet to relax." Thus Tao Ren disperses blood and relaxes Liver. Because pathogen is deep in Blood, onset is nocturnal (Yin meridian pathogen). This formula disperses wind-cold from blood.
*[Shiyi]* **Tao Ren Chengqi Tang**: Treats nocturnal malaria with excess heat. (Formula in *Shanghan Lun*.)
For fever first, chills second: **Xiaochaihu Tang**.
For chills first, fever second: **Xiaochaihu Tang plus Guizhi**.
For much heat, only heat: **Baihu Jia Guizhi Tang**.
For much chills, only chills: **Chaihu Guijin Tang**.
(Note: Treatment depends on the ratio of chills/heat. If much chills but only chills, pulse may be surging/slippery; treat as excess heat. Using Guizhi would be an error. If much heat but only heat, pulse may be empty/weak; treat as deficiency cold. Using Baihu Tang would be an error. Students must ask about chills/heat ratios and check pulses to ensure accuracy.)
**Xiaochaihu Jia Guizhi Tang**: Treats malaria with chills first, fever second. (Formula in *Shanghan Lun*.)
**Xiaochaihu Tang**: Treats malaria with fever first, chills second.
*[Zhang Zhongjing]* **Warm Malaria**: Pulse like normal, body no chills only heat, joint pain/vexation, occasional constipation. Use **Baihu Jia Guizhi Tang**. (*Maibian* says: Morning onset resolves evening; evening onset resolves morning.)
Ingredients: Zhimu (6 liang). Gancao (fried, 2 liang). Shigao (1 jin). Jingmi (Rice) (2 he). Gui (peeled, 3 liang).
Preparation: Cut. Take 5 fen per dose. Add 1 cup water, boil to 8 fen. Strain. Take warm. Sweating indicates cure.
**Chaihu Guijin Tang**: Treats malaria with much chills, slight heat, or chills without heat. (Formula in *Shanghan Lun*.)
Malaria with much chills is named **Mu Malaria**. Use **Shuqi San**.
Ingredients: Shuqi (Burned to remove fishy smell), Yunmu (Cloud Mother Stone, burned for 3 days/nights), Longgu (Fossilized Bones). Equal parts.
Preparation: Powder. Take half a coin-bite with Jiangshui (fermented rice water) before onset. For Warm Malaria, add 1 qian Shuqi. Take 1 coin-bite at onset.
**Muli Tang**: Treats Mu Malaria.
Ingredients: Muli (Oyster Shell, fried, 4 liang). Mahuang (remove nodes, 3 liang). Gancao (2 liang). Shuqi (3 liang).
Preparation: 8 sheng water. Boil Shuqi and Mahuang first, remove foam, get 6 sheng. Add other herbs, boil to 2 sheng. Take 1 sheng warm. If vomiting, stop administration.
**Chaihu Qu Banxia Gua Lou Gen Tang**: Treats thirst after malaria, also Labor Malaria.
Ingredients: Chaihu (8 liang). Renshen, Huangqin (each 3 liang). Gua Lou Gen (Trichosanthis Radix) (4 liang). Shengjiang (2 liang). Dazao (Jujubae Fructus) (12 pieces). Gancao (fried, 3 liang).
Preparation: 12 dou water. Boil to 6 sheng. Strain. Re-boil to 3 sheng. Take 1 sheng warm. 2-3 doses per day.
*[Zhu Danxi]* Malaria can be due to Wind, Summer Heat, Food Stagnation, or Phlegm.
Every 3 days: Ill for 1 year. Every other day: Ill for 6 months. Daily: Ill for 1 month. Two days continuous, one day pause: Qi and Blood both diseased. Daily or every other day: Use tonics with releasing agents, then **Jiemie Dan** to cut the malaria. If in Yin division, lift pathogen to Yang division before using cutting formulas.
Ingredients: Changshan (Dichroae Radix), Caoguo (Tsaoko Fructus), Binglang (Arecae Semen), Zhimu, Wumei (Mume Fructus), Chuanshanjia (Pangolin Scales, fried), Gancao (fried).
Preparation: Water and wine, 1 large bowl each. Boil to half bowl. Leave overnight. Take warm 2 hours before onset. If vomiting, do not take.
General Principles: Summer-Wind requires sweating. Resting in cool breezes in summer closes sweat and prevents release. Diet-related cases require dietary regulation. Deficient malaria requires Renshen and Baizhu for 1-2 doses to support Qi and prevent sinking, then treat internal injury. External pathogen combined uses same method. Internal phlegm must be resolved via sweating: Erchen Tang plus Chaihu, Changshan, Huangqin. Severe malaria with chills/fever, splitting headache, thirst, spontaneous sweating: Use Renshen, Huangqi, Baizhu, Huanglian, Huangqin, Zhizi, Chuanxiong, Cangzhu, Banxia, Tianhuafen. Decoct in water.
