《医经论述》说:凡是香港脚(足部疾患,类似现代的风湿性关节炎或痛风等)初起出现转筋(肌肉痉挛)的情况,应当灸承筋、承山两个穴位。
《龙门方》治疗脚部转筋及筋脉拘急入腹的方子:
取木瓜子根茎煮汤服用,疗效确切。
又说:治疗脚筋转急及入腹的方子:用手勾住患病脚的大脚趾,灸在脚心凹陷处筋上的位置,共七壮。
又说:如果筋脉已经拘急入腹,让患者俯卧在地,用绳子绊住两脚脚背脚踝下方,使两脚中间高出地面系在柱子上,离地稍高一些,
患者……
《华佗方》治疗转筋的方子:
用白戢(一种植物,此处疑为“白蔹”或特定草药,原文作“白戢”,暂保留原名或注为白蔹之误,但按规则保留原名)煮粉使其煮沸一次,然后用此水清洗小腿肚(腓肠肌),直到能站立为止即可痊愈。(《短剧方》与此相同。)
苏唐说:凡是香港脚发作都有阴阳表里的区别,应根据症状进行治疗。不能一味拘泥于古方。患阳证而治阴证,病在表而救里,都会导致病情加重。

上述穴位都可以进行艾灸,其中最重要的是足三里、绝骨、承筋、大冲、昆仑、涌泉。患者不可不灸这些穴位。
凡是患有香港脚,规律通常是春季发作、夏季严重、秋季减轻、冬季停止,大法则是春秋宜灸,冬季缓解时可以行动,夏季则完全不可以(灸或行?原文语境似指夏季不宜剧烈活动或施治,结合下文“夏既疮”推测夏季易发疮疡或不宜灸,此处依文意译为夏季皆不可为/不宜)。夏季既然……

凡是香港脚病的总论认为毒气从下往上攻,也有从上往下的,有人说灸上面的毒气就会停止,这是错误的。近来见到毒瓦斯攻击的部位,疼痛

《葛氏方》说:其灸法,孔穴也非常多,恐怕人们不能完全知晓。现在只列出重要的,必须先从上开始,如果
直接灸……
大椎一穴(灸一百壮),肩井二穴(各灸一百壮),膻中一穴(灸五十壮),巨阙一穴(灸百
壮)。
凡是灸这上部五个穴位,也足以泄其邪气。如果能灸百会、风府、胃脘及五脏俞穴也很好。视病情的轻重缓急而定。
其次:风市二穴(灸一百壮),足三里二穴(灸二百壮),上廉二穴(灸一百壮),下廉二穴(灸
一百壮),绝骨……
凡是这下部十个穴位都非常重要,还有伏兔、犊鼻穴。凡是灸这些穴位的壮数不必一次性完成,三天内报数令其完成。
《千金方》说:凡是病一只脚,就灸一只脚;病两只脚,便灸两只脚。
又说:刚得到脚弱症就要迅速灸治,并服用竹沥汤,灸完后可以服用八风散,没有不好的,唯有急速治疗。如果
人只是灸而不服散,服散而不灸,像这样的人,有一半痊愈一半死亡。即使得愈,也可能过一两年再次发动。
觉得不适就依照此法迅速灸治。服用散剂者,治疗十个痊愈十个。竹沥汤和八风散见上文。
The medical treatise states: For Hong Kong foot (a term for lower limb disorders, resembling modern rheumatoid arthritis or gout) initially presenting with tendon spasm (muscle cramp), moxibustion should be applied to the Chengjin (BL57) and Chengshan (BL57) acupoints.
The *Longmen Fang* prescription for treating leg tendon spasms and tendons drawing inward toward the abdomen:
Decoct the roots and stems of *Gmelina abutilon* (Mugua, 木瓜) root/stem in water and drink it; this is verified as effective.
It also states: For treating foot tendon spasms and drawing inward toward the abdomen: Use the hand to hook the big toe of the affected foot, and apply seven moxa cones on the tendon at the depression in the center of the sole of the foot.
It further states: If the tendons have already drawn inward toward the abdomen, have the patient lie prone on the ground, tie a rope around the dorsum of both feet below the ankles, so that the space between the two feet is elevated and tied to a pillar, keeping it slightly high off the ground,
the patient...
The *Hua Tuo Fang* prescription for treating tendon spasms:
Boil Baiji (Baiji, 白戢 - likely a textual variant for Bai Lian, *Ampelopsis japonica*) powder once, then use it to wash the calf muscles (gastrocnemius); the patient will be able to stand and recover immediately. (*Duanju Fang* agrees with this.)
Su Tang said: All cases of Hong Kong foot present with Yin/Yang and Exterior/Interior distinctions, and treatment should follow the symptoms. One must not rigidly adhere to ancient prescriptions. Treating Yang syndromes with Yin methods, or addressing Interior conditions when the disease is in the Exterior, will all lead to severe deterioration.
Initial onset...
Below,
Little Toe...
Quan, Feng...
Massage. If the condition manifests throughout the upper and lower body without a specific location, it is appropriate to moxibustion the Shanglian (ST34), Xialian (ST35), Tiaokou (ST36), and Zusanli (ST36) acupoints, applying one to two cones to each, to unblock and drain the pathogenic factors.
Regarding medication...
Those with red color...
Zusanli,
Yanglingquan (GB34) two acupoints: Located in the depression below the lateral condyle of the knee. (Recorded by Su Xu).
Juegu (GB39) two acupoints: Located directly above the external malleolus, in the depression where the small bone ends. (Same as above).
Fengshi (GB31) two acupoints: When standing upright with arms hanging down, located between the two tendons where the tip of the middle finger reaches. (Same as above).
Kunlun (BL60) two acupoints: Located in the depression behind the external malleolus, on the calcaneus. (Same as above).
Yangfu (GB38) two acupoints: Located half a cun slightly below Juegu. (Su Xu says: The *Mingtang Jing* does not list Juegu, only Yangfu).
Shanglian (ST34) two acupoints: Located three cun below Zusanli. (Su Xu).
Xialian (ST35) two acupoints: Located one cun below Tiaokou. (Su Xu).
Tiaokou (ST36) two acupoints: Located two cun below Shanglian. (Su Xu).
Da Chong (LR2) two acupoints: Located two cun posterior to the base of the big toe. Some say one and a half cun. (Su Xu).
Dubbi (ST34) two acupoints: Located in the depression at the outer corner of the kneecap. (Su Xu).
Ximu (EX-LE4) two acupoints: Located in the depressions on both sides below the kneecap. (Su).
Zusanli (ST36) two acupoints: Located three cun below the lateral side of the patella, in the depression outside the bone.
Ququan (LR8) two acupoints: Located at the head of the transverse popliteal crease on the medial side of the knee.
Yinlingquan (SP9) two acupoints: Located in the depression below the medial condyle of the tibia when the leg is extended. (Su Xu).
Zhongdu (LR6) two acupoints: Located midway between Yinlingquan and Sanjiao. (Su).
Sanjiao (SP8) two acupoints: Located three cun above the internal malleolus. (Su Xu says: Named Dàyīn).
Fuliu (KI7) two acupoints: Located three cun above the internal malleolus. (Su Xu says: Named Chengming).
Shaoyang (EX-LE7?) two acupoints: Located one cun behind the internal malleolus, within the moving tendon. (Xu).
Sanyin (EX-LE8?) two acupoints: Located eight cun above the internal malleolus, in the depression below the bone. (Xu).
Yinqiao (KI6) two acupoints: Located in the depression forward from below the internal malleolus. (Xu).
Weizhong (BL40) two acupoints: Located in the center of the popliteal crease behind the knee. (Su Xu).
Chengjin (BL57) two acupoints: Located in the fullness of the center of the calf. (Su Xu).
Chengshan (BL57) two acupoints: Located in the depression between the muscle bellies at the lower border of the gastrocnemius. (Su Xu).
Yongquan (KI1) two acupoints: Located in the center of the sole of the foot. (Su Xu).
All the aforementioned acupoints can be treated with moxibustion. The most important ones are Zusanli (ST36), Juegu (GB39), Chengjin (BL57), Da Chong (LR2), Kunlun (BL60), and Yongquan (KI1). Patients must undergo moxibustion on these points.
Generally, Hong Kong foot follows a pattern of spring onset, summer exacerbation, autumn mildness, and winter remission. The general rule is that moxibustion is suitable in spring and autumn; movement is permissible in winter when it remits, but in summer, it is generally contraindicated (or activities are restricted). Since in summer...
Apply one...
In the general discussion of Hong Kong foot, it is stated that toxic heat ascends from below, or descends from above. Some claim that moxibustion on the upper part stops the toxicity, which is erroneous. Recently, I have seen the site attacked by toxic vapors, with pain
like needle刺刺ing...
Whatever attacks like a thief trying to escape, upon encountering an acupoint, it exits. It is not limited to the main gate. Wind pathogens attack in the same way. This meridian has been tested, never failing,
must...
The *Ge Shi Fang* states: Regarding moxibustion methods, there are many acupoints, which may be difficult for people to know completely. Here we only list the essential ones. One must start from the top. If
directly moxibustion...
Dazhui (GV14) one acupoint (moxibustion 100 cones), Jianjing (GB21) two acupoints (100 cones each), Danzhong (CV17) one acupoint (moxibustion 50 cones), Juque (CV14) one acupoint (moxibustion 100
cones).
Moxibustion on these five upper acupoints is sufficient to vent the pathogenic qi. Moxibustion on Baihui (GV20), Fengfu (GV16), Weiwuan (CV12?), and the Back-Shu points of the Five Zang organs is also excellent. This depends on the severity and urgency of the disease.
Next: Fengshi (GB31) two acupoints (moxibustion 100 cones), Zusanli (ST36) two acupoints (moxibustion 200 cones), Shanglian (ST34) two acupoints (moxibustion 100 cones), Xialian (ST35) two acupoints (moxibustion 100 cones), Juegu...
All ten lower acupoints mentioned here are extremely important, along with Futu (ST32) and Dubbi (ST34). The number of moxa cones for these points need not be completed all at once; report the total over three days to complete the course.
The *Qianjin Fang* states: If the disease affects one foot, moxibustion one foot; if it affects both feet, moxibustion both feet.
It also states: Upon the initial onset of leg weakness, moxibustion should be performed quickly, and Zhuli Tang (Bamboo Sap Decoction) should be taken. After moxibustion, Bafeng San (Eight Winds Powder) can be taken. There are no failures; only rapid treatment works. If
one only performs moxibustion without taking the powder, or takes the powder without moxibustion, such patients will have half recover and half die. Even those who recover may experience recurrence after one or two years.
Upon feeling discomfort, follow this method and perform moxibustion quickly. Those who take the powder achieve ten cures out of ten. Zhuli Tang and Bafeng San are described above.
