麻疹已出贵透彻，细密红润始为良，若不透彻须分晰，风寒毒热气虚详，
风寒升葛汤加味，毒热三黄石膏汤，气虚人参败毒散，托里透疹效非常。
[注]
麻疹见形贵乎透彻，出后细密红润，则为佳美，
有不透彻者，须察所困，
如风寒闭塞，必有身热无汗，头疼呕恶，疹色淡红而黯之证，
宜用升麻葛根汤，加苏叶，川芎，牛蒡子，
因毒壅滞者，必面赤身热，谵语烦渴，疹色赤紫滞黯，宜用三黄石膏汤，
又有正气虚弱，不能送毒外出者，必面色□白，身微热，精神倦怠，
疹色白而不红，以人参败毒散主之。

麻疹见形三日之后，当渐次没落，不疾不徐，始为无病，
若一二日疹即收没，此为太速，

麻疹已经发出，贵在透彻，疹点细密且红润才是良证。如果发出不透彻，必须仔细辨析原因：是风寒、毒热还是气虚。若是风寒所致，用升麻葛根汤加味；若是毒热所致，用三黄石膏汤；若是气虚所致，用人参败毒散，托里透疹的效果非常好。
[注]
麻疹见形（出疹阶段）贵在透彻，出疹后若细密红润，则是佳兆。
若有发出不透彻的情况，必须考察其阻碍的原因。
如果是风寒闭塞，必然伴有身体发热无汗、头痛呕吐恶心、疹色淡红而晦暗的症状，
适宜使用升麻葛根汤，加入苏叶、川芎、牛蒡子。
如果是毒邪壅滞，必然见面部发红、身体发热、胡言乱语、烦躁口渴、疹色赤紫且滞涩晦暗的症状，适宜使用三黄石膏汤。
又有正气虚弱，不能将毒邪送出体外的情况，必然见面色㿠白、身体微热、精神倦怠、
疹色白而不红的症状，以人参败毒散为主治方剂。

疹出三日应当开始收没（消退），不快不慢才没有忧患。收没太速会导致毒邪内攻，当散（消退）而不散则需用虚热的方法医治。
毒盛者用荆防解毒汤治疗，外用胡荽酒法适宜。虚热者用柴胡四物汤治疗，根据证候施治，疾病逐渐痊愈。
[注]
麻疹见形三天之后，应当逐渐消退，不快不慢，这才算是无病。
如果一两天疹子就收没了，这是太快了。
因为调护不慎，或被风寒侵袭，或被邪秽触动，导致毒邪反而内攻。
轻则出现烦躁口渴、胡言乱语甚至狂躁，重则出现神志昏迷、烦闷扰乱，急需内服荆防解毒汤，
外用胡荽酒熏蒸其衣被，使疹子透出，才能确保平安无事。
当散而不散的，是因为体内有虚热留滞在肌表。
其症状为潮热、烦躁口渴、口燥咽干，切不可单纯使用寒凉药物，
用柴胡四物汤治疗，能使血分调和通畅，余热全部清除，疹子自然消退。

The eruption of measles should be thorough; fine, dense, and rosy-red rashes indicate a favorable prognosis. If the eruption is not thorough, one must differentiate between wind-cold, toxic-heat, or qi-deficiency patterns. For wind-cold, use Shengma Gegen Tang (Cinnamon Twig and Rhizoma Cimicifugae Decoction) with modifications; for toxic-heat, use Sanhuang Shigao Tang (Three-Yellow and Gypsum Decoction); for qi-deficiency, use Renshen Baidu San (Ginseng Detoxification Powder). These methods effectively support the interior and promote the eruption of rashes with remarkable efficacy.
[Note]
In the manifestation stage of measles, thoroughness is paramount. Fine, dense, and rosy-red rashes after eruption are auspicious signs.
If the eruption is incomplete, one must investigate the obstructing factors.
If caused by wind-cold obstruction, symptoms necessarily include fever without sweating, headache, nausea, vomiting, pale red but dull rash color.
Shengma Gegen Tang (Cinnamon Twig and Rhizoma Cimicifugae Decoction), added with Perilla Leaf (Perillae Folium), Ligusticum Chuanxiong Rhizome (Chuanxiong Rhizoma), and Arisaema Cum Bile (Baihezi, here referring to Arctii Fructus/Niubangzi), is appropriate.
If caused by toxic stagnation, symptoms necessarily include facial flushing, body heat, delirious speech, irritability, thirst, and dark purple, stagnant, and dull rash color. Sanhuang Shigao Tang (Three-Yellow and Gypsum Decoction) is appropriate.
In cases of deficient healthy qi unable to expel toxins outward, symptoms necessarily include sallow white complexion, slight body heat, mental fatigue,
and white, non-rosy rash color. Renshen Baidu San (Ginseng Detoxification Powder) is the primary treatment.
(Shengma Gegen Tang) See the section on Fever in the Smallpox Chapter for the formula details.
(Sanhuang Shigao Tang) Composition: Ephedrae Herba (Mahuang), Gypsum Fibrosum (Shigao), Fermented Soybean (Douchi), Phellodendri Cortex (Huangbai), Coptidis Rhizoma (Huanglian), Gardeniae Fructus (Zhizi), Scutellariae Radix (Huangqin). Decoct in water and take orally.
(Formula Song)
Rashes fail to erupt due to toxic heat, seek Sanhuang Shigao Tang urgently;
Ephedrae Herba, Gypsum Fibrosum, Fermented Soybean,
Phellodendri Cortex, Coptidis Rhizoma, Gardeniae Fructus, Scutellariae Radix.
(Renshen Baidu San) Composition: Ginseng Radix et Rhizoma (Renshen), Ligusticum Chuanxiong Rhizoma (Chuanxiong), Notopterygii Rhizoma et Radix (Qianghuo), Angelicae Dahuricae Radix (Duqu), Peucedani Radix (Qianhu), Aurantii Fructus Immaturus stirfried with bran (Zhike), Platycodonis Radix (Jiegeng), Bupleuri Radix (Chaihu), Glycyrrhizae Radix et Rhizoma raw (Gancao), Poria (Fuling). Add fresh ginger as an adjuvant, decoct in water and take orally.
(Formula Song)
Rashes difficult to erupt due to qi deficiency, Renshen Baidu San has miraculous merit;
Ginseng, Ligusticum, Notopterygium, Angelica, Peucedani, Aurantium, Platycodon,
Bupleuri, Glycyrrhiza, Poria.

By the third day of eruption, the rashes should begin to recede; neither too fast nor too slow ensures safety. Receding too quickly allows toxins to attack inward; failing to recede when it should requires treating residual heat from deficiency.
For excessive toxin, treat with Jingfang Jiedu Tang (Schizonepeta and Saposhnikovia Detoxification Decoction); externally, Huisu Jiu (Coriander Wine) method is suitable.
For residual heat from deficiency, treat with Chaihu Siwu Tang (Bupleurum and Four Substances Decoction). Apply treatments according to the syndrome, and the disease will gradually resolve.
[Note]
After three days of the manifestation stage, the rashes should gradually disappear at a moderate pace, indicating health.
If the rashes recede within one or two days, this is too rapid.
This results from improper care, invasion by wind-cold, or contact with pathogenic filth, causing toxins to counter-attack inward.
Mild cases present with irritability, thirst, delirium, and mania; severe cases present with coma, confusion, and restlessness. Urgently administer Jingfang Jiedu Tang (Schizonepeta and Saposhnikovia Detoxification Decoction) internally.
Externally, fumigate clothing and bedding with Huisu Jiu (Coriander Wine) to induce the rashes to re-emerge, ensuring safety.
When rashes fail to recede when they should, it is because deficient heat lingers in the muscle layer.
Symptoms include tidal fever, irritability, thirst, dry mouth, and dry throat. One must absolutely avoid using purely cold-natured medications.
Treat with Chaihu Siwu Tang (Bupleurum and Four Substances Decoction) to harmonize the blood level, eliminate residual heat completely, and allow the rashes to subside naturally.
(Jingfang Jiedu Tang) Composition: Menthae Haplocalycis Herba (Boheye), Forsythiae Fructus decentered (Lianqiao), Schizonepetae Spica (Jingjie), Saposhnikoviae Radix (Fangfeng), Scutellariae Radix (Huangqin), Coptidis Rhizoma (Huanglian), Arctii Fructus fried and ground (Niubangzi), Isatidis Folium (Daqingye), Rhinocerotis Cornu (Xijiao), Indentis Pulvis (Renzhonghuang). Add Centelli Herba (Dengxincao) and Phragmitis Rhizoma (Lugen) as adjuvants, decoct in water and take orally.
