黄疸门
黄疸是由于湿热之邪郁结蒸腾而形成的，症状表现为全身皮肤及眼白均发黄。阳黄的色泽鲜明，身体多伴有发热；阴黄的色泽晦暗，身体感觉冷如冰。
[注释]
黄疸这一病证，是由于湿热郁积日久，向外发散至肌肤所致。
其临床表现是全身和面目都发黄，严重的甚至呈现深黄色，面色像被烟熏过一样。
其中又有阳黄和阴黄的区别：
如果见面色红、口渴、小便赤红，且肤色光亮、身体发热的，这是脾脏的湿热，属于阳黄；
如果口不渴、肤色暗黄、身体冷如冰的，这是脾肾的寒湿，属于阴黄；
治疗时应当分别进行施治。

对于无汗的阳黄，适宜采用疏散解表的方法，茵陈麻黄汤能够发汗解表；对于腹部胀满、大便秘结的阳黄，适宜用茵陈蒿汤攻下里实；对于既无表证也无里证的阳黄，茵陈五苓散效果良好。
[注释]
阳黄这一病证，原因是湿热所致，治疗者应当详细审察。
如果是表实证且无汗，适宜通过发汗使邪气从体表排出，主方用茵陈麻黄汤，使黄疸从表而解；
如果是里实证，出现大小便涩滞、腹部胀满的情况，适宜用茵陈蒿汤通下，使黄疸从里而解；
如果体表有汗，体内没有大便秘结和腹部胀满，说明表里都没有实证，不可使用发汗或攻下的方法，只宜利小便，
适宜使用茵陈五苓散，使黄疸从小便通道排出即可痊愈。

Jaundice is formed by the stagnation and steaming of damp-heat, presenting with yellowing of the entire body and the eyes. Yang jaundice (Yang Huang) features a bright color and often involves bodily heat; Yin jaundice (Yin Huang) features a dull color and a sensation of coldness like ice.
[Note]
The syndrome of jaundice arises from damp-heat stagnating for a long time and manifesting externally on the skin and muscles.
Its manifestations include yellowing of the whole body and face; in severe cases, it may present as deep yellow, with the complexion resembling that of being smoke-stained.
There are distinctions between Yang and Yin types within this condition:
If one observes a red face, thirst, dark urine, a bright skin color, and bodily heat, this is damp-heat in the Spleen, classified as Yang jaundice;
If there is no thirst, a dull yellow skin color, and a body cold as ice, this is cold-dampness in the Spleen and Kidney, classified as Yin jaundice;
Treatment should be administered differently based on these distinctions.

For Yang jaundice without sweating, dispersing and releasing the exterior is appropriate; Yinchen Mahuang Decoction can induce sweating. For Yang jaundice with abdominal fullness and constipation, Yinchenshao Tang is used to purge interior excess. For Yang jaundice with neither exterior nor interior signs, Yinchen Wuling San is effective.
[Note]
The syndrome of Yang jaundice is caused by damp-heat; practitioners must examine it carefully.
If there is an exterior excess pattern with no sweating, it is appropriate to release the exterior through sweating; Yinchen Mahuang Decoction is the primary formula, allowing the jaundice to resolve from the exterior.
If there is an interior excess pattern characterized by difficult urination and defecation and abdominal fullness, Yinchenshao Tang is used to purge, allowing the jaundice to resolve from the interior.
If there is sweating at the exterior and no constipation or abdominal fullness at the interior, indicating no exterior or interior excess patterns, sweating and purging methods should not be used. Instead, promoting urination is indicated.
Yinchen Wuling San is appropriate, allowing the jaundice to resolve through the urinary pathway.
