The smallpox lesions have thin skin and the base is not red; when suppuration occurs, the pus is pale and clear. The lesions melt, break open, and are incomplete. This indicates Qi and Blood deficiency, and the prognosis is mostly ominous.
One must quickly administer Shiquan Dabu Decoction (Ten Complete Tonic Decoction). Only after Qi is sufficient and Blood is full can life be preserved.
[Commentary]
Smallpox relies on Qi and Blood to complete its development. If Qi and Blood are substantial, the lesion skin becomes tough, plump, firm, and thick.
If Qi and Blood are deficient and contracted, the lesions will necessarily be shiny, soft, wrinkled, and melted like wetness.
One must use Shiquan Dabu Decoction (Ten Complete Tonic Decoction) to vigorously tonify Qi and Blood, so that the toxin transforms into pus and circulates, ensuring safety.
(Shiquan Dabu Decoction / Ten Complete Tonic Decoction) Ren Shen (Ginseng Radix), Huang Qi (Astragali Radix, honey-fried), Fu Ling (Poria), Dang Gui (Angelicae Sinensis Radix), Bai Zhu (Atractylodis Macrocephalae Rhizoma, earth-fried), Rou Gui (Cinnamomi Cortex), Gan Cao (Glycyrrhizae Radix et Rhizoma, roasted), Bai Shao (Paeoniae Radix Alba, wine-fried), Shu Di Huang (Rehmanniae Radix Praeparata), Chuan Xiong (Ligustici Chuanxiong Rhizoma). Decoct with water, using ginger water prepared by roasting as a guide.
(Verse for the Formula)
Shiquan Dabu Decoction is most effective, Ginseng, Astragalus, and Poria white; Angelica, Atractylodes, Cinnamon bark, and Licorice, White Peony, Prepared Rehmannia, and Ligusticum combine.

The pustule shell is round and smooth, but the pus does not form; one must clearly distinguish between deficiency and excess patterns. A pale root color indicates Blood deficiency, while purple tightness results from Blood heat coagulation.
Use Qianjin Neituo San (Thousand Gold Internal Support Powder) combined with Siwu Tang (Four Substance Decoction); treat according to the syndrome without delay.
[Commentary]
When smallpox reaches the stage of pus formation, the head and face exceed the body in swelling, yet internally there is no pus. This is named "Empty Shell" (Kong Ke). One must differentiate deficiency and excess to treat it.
If the root color is pale and white, this is Blood deficiency unable to transform toxins into pus; Qianjin Neituo San (Thousand Gold Internal Support Powder) is appropriate.
If the root is tight and purple, this is Qi stagnation causing Blood stasis, with toxic heat lurking in the Blood level, preventing pus formation; Jiawei Siwu Tang (Modified Four Substance Decoction) is appropriate.
(Qianjin Neituo San / Thousand Gold Internal Support Powder) See the section on Treatment of Appearance Stage Syndromes.

Decoct with water.

Although the smallpox root is red, the apex is collapsed. This syndrome is mostly due to Qi deficiency. The patient presents with a pale complexion, cold limbs, poor appetite, empty irritability, loose stools, and physical fatigue.
Urgently use Buzhong Yiqi Tang (Tonify the Middle and Augment the Qi Decoction). When Qi is sufficient, the apex rises, and the filling of pus is precious.
[Commentary]
Apical collapse is caused by weak Middle Qi failing to uplift. Therefore, during the pus-filling stage, although the root is ruddy, the apex slightly collapses.
Presenting symptoms include a pale face, cold limbs, lack of desire for food, empty irritability, loose stools, and physical fatigue.
Treatment should focus on tonifying Qi. Using Buzhong Yiqi Tang (Tonify the Middle and Augment the Qi Decoction) will make Qi sufficient and Pus rise, causing the apex to naturally elevate.
(Buzhong Yiqi Tang / Tonify the Middle and Augment the Qi Decoction) Huang Qi (Astragali Radix, honey-fried), Bai Zhu (Atractylodis Macrocephalae Rhizoma, earth-fried), Ren Shen (Ginseng Radix), Sheng Ma (Cimicifugae Rhizoma, stir-fried), Chai Hu (Bupleuri Radix, stir-fried), Chen Pi (Citri Reticulatae Pericarpium), Gan Cao (Glycyrrhizae Radix et Rhizoma), Dang Gui Shen (Angelicae Sinensis Radix, root body). Decoct with water, using roasted ginger and Jujube fruit as guides.
(Verse for the Formula)
Buzhong Yiqi works like a spirit, Astragalus, Atractylodes, and Ginseng together; Sheng Ma, Chai Hu, Chen Pi, and Licorice, Roasted Ginger, Jujube, and Angelica root body.
