The *Zhubing Yuanhou Lun* (Treatise on the Pathogenesis and Symptoms of All Diseases) states: When Yin Qi accumulates internally and is further subjected to cold pathogenic factors, it causes disharmony between Ying (Nutritive) and Wei (Defensive) Qi, as well as deficiency of Blood and Qi. Consequently, wind-cold enters the abdomen.
The *Nan Jing* (Classic of Difficult Issues, also known as *Ba Shi Yi Nan*) states: Sanctions occurring in the Zang organs are called "Shan" (Hernia), while those occurring in the Fu organs are called "Jia" (Mass).
It further states: This condition in males is called "Shan," while in females it is called "Jia."
The *Ge Shi Fang* provides a prescription for sudden onset of various Shan conditions, characterized by mutual pulling pain in the lower abdomen and genitalia, pain like twisting or wringing, profuse cold sweating, and extreme suffering approaching death:
Crush *Adenophorae Radix* (Shashen, also known as Baishen), sift it, and administer one Cunbi (a square-inch measure) with wine; recovery is immediate.
Another prescription: *Zanthoxyli Fructus* (Huajiao, Sichuan Pepper) 2 He, *Zingiberis Rhizoma* (Ganjiang, Dried Ginger) 4 Liang, add 4 Sheng of water, decoct to obtain 2 Sheng of liquid, remove the dregs, add 1 Jin of *Malt Saccharum* (Yitang, Maltose), and decoct again to obtain half a Sheng. Divide into two doses.
Yet another prescription: One may take various purgative pills to induce evacuation; preparing *Zouma Tang* (Running Horse Decoction) is also effective.
Yet another prescription: Moxibustion at Juque (CV14), located one cun below Xinjiewei (CV15), and one cun to the left and right of this point. Apply 100 moxa cones (Zhuang) to each point.
The *Ji Yao Fang* provides a treatment for chronic accumulation of cold Qi in the abdomen due to long-standing Shan and various Zheng-Jia masses:
Aromatic fermented soybeans (*Douchi*, specifically the heart/core), 1 Sheng, dried in the sun and lightly roasted until fragrant; mustard seeds (*Jiezi*), 1 Sheng, stones removed and lightly roasted until yellow.
Grind the above ingredients and form honey pills. Take 25 pills with wine on an empty stomach, increasing gradually to 35 pills. Take twice daily. Upon initial administration, if abdominal cramping pain is felt, do not be alarmed.
The *Xin Lu Fang* provides prescriptions for various Shan conditions:
*Pruni Persicae Cortex* (Taobaipi, Peach Bark), 1 Sheng.
Decoct in 3 Sheng of water to obtain 1 Sheng of liquid; take in one dose.
Another prescription: Administer *Pollen Typhae* (Puhuang, Cattail Pollen) one Cunbi with wine, twice daily.
Another prescription: Crush 80 *Semen Persicae* (Taoren, Peach Seed), remove the skin, grind into a paste, and take with wine.
Another prescription: Crush garlic into a paste, take with wine, dosage equivalent to two jujube-sized portions, three times daily.
The *Fan Wang Fang* provides moxibustion methods for treating Xin Shan (Heart Hernia): At the junction of the nail and flesh on the big toenails of both feet, and inside the nail bed, apply half a moxa cone per site, with the number of cones corresponding to the patient's age (Sui Nian Zhuang).
Another prescription: Moxibustion at Yongquan (KI1, sole of the foot), behind the nail of the big toe at the transverse crease joint, and at the boundary of black and white flesh between the split toes. Stop after 100 Zhuang.
