凡是患有喉闭（咽喉闭塞不通）及缠喉风（一种急性咽喉肿痛疾病）的患者，在使用药物使咽喉通畅、能够进食汤水后，应立即喝下半碗或一碗稀粥，以压制体内的邪热；如果不压制，病情就会复发，这一点不可不知道。
咽喉既然已经通畅，若出现身体发热、头痛等症状，除了排除外感邪气之外，需要观察脉象气息以及大小便情况：如果有表证（病邪在体表），则采用发汗法治疗；如果有里证（病邪在脏腑内部），则采用轻微泻下的方法治疗，这样都能痊愈。
痊愈后如果出现虚性喘息但身体不发热，那一定是因为服用过多寒凉药物导致下焦虚寒所致。此时应当服用具有镇摄和温补作用的药物，如黑锡丸、正一丹之类，并用粥来辅助压制药力。
曾有一人患咽喉肿痛，吞咽困难，伴有身体发热、头痛、大便不通。众医议论纷纷，都认为属于热证，应当服用寒凉药物。有一位善于医术的医生却说：“脉象紧而数，这是感受寒气所致。”众医不听从。这位善医者说：“我有验证的方法。在浴室中生火，用炒木葱汤淋浴全身。如果是热病，在这种温暖环境下必然出汗，且咽喉疼痛不会减轻；如果是感寒，即使洗澡也不会出汗。”患者相信了他的话，进入浴室淋浴却没有出汗。于是他在浴室中服下一剂麻黄汤（发散风寒、宣肺平喘的方剂），片刻之后大汗出，大便通畅，当时就没事了。众医都佩服他的神奇。凡是要辨别热病与感冷，都可以使用这种方法。（出自《医余》）
咸平年间，职方员外郎魏公在潭州时，有几个年幼子弟互相嬉戏，用钓竿垂钓，用枣子做饵，上岸钓小鸡雏。其中一个孩子模仿，却误吞了鱼钩至喉咙中。急忙牵引，但鱼钩倒刺朝内，无法取出。他召集各位医生，大家都不敢动手。魏公非常惊恐，派人四处询问老妇人，认为必定有阅历丰富的人能解决这个问题。
这时有一位九十多岁的老妇人说，她从未见过这种情况，推测一定有智慧见识的人能解决此事。当时本郡有一位名叫莫都料的工匠，手艺非常精巧。魏公听闻后，叫来老妇人责备道：“我的儿子误吞了鱼钩，莫都料怎么能取出来呢？”老妇人说：“听说医者讲究心意相通。那位莫都料曾在水中打捞碑塔，添加仰瓦（屋顶瓦片）。”魏公的亲属劝慰他说：“试着问问他吧。”魏公于是召见莫都料。莫都料沉思良久，说需要得到一个蚕茧和一大串念珠。魏公给了他。莫都料遂将铁丝剪成铜钱大小，将其四周弄软，涂上油润滑，中间通一个小孔。先穿上钩线，再穿几颗念珠（三到五颗）。让儿童端正坐好，张开嘴，逐渐添加并调整珠子，使其抵住喉咙，感觉到到达鱼钩系线处时，用力向下推一下，鱼钩便脱落下来，随即迅速向上取出。只见铁丝茧状物向下包裹定住了钩线和倒刺，取出后毫无损伤。魏公大喜，于是重重地酬谢了他。魏公说：“心思明澈的人，技艺必定高超；意念明确的人，心地必定善良。这就是医者之道啊。”（出自《名医录》）
Whenever a person suffers from Hou Bi (throat closure) or Chan Hou Feng (a type of acute sore throat and swelling disease), after using medication to open the throat so that they can consume liquids, they should immediately drink half a bowl or one bowl of thin porridge to suppress the pathogenic heat. If not suppressed, the illness will recur; this must not be ignored.
Once the throat is unobstructed, if symptoms such as fever and headache appear, besides ruling out external evil invasion, one must observe the pulse quality and bowel/bladder functions. If there are exterior signs (pathogen in the body surface), sweating therapy should be applied; if there are interior signs (pathogen in the internal organs), mild purgation should be used. Both methods lead to recovery.
After recovery, if wheezing due to deficiency occurs without fever, it is likely caused by excessive intake of cooling medicines leading to lower jiao (lower burner) deficiency-cold. In this case, medications with sedative and warming-tonifying properties, such as Hei Xi Wan (Black Tin Pill) or Zheng Yi Dan, should be taken, assisted by porridge to stabilize the effect.
There was once a patient suffering from sore throat and swelling, unable to swallow food, accompanied by fever, headache, and constipation. Physicians debated extensively, all believing it was a heat syndrome requiring cooling medicines. However, a skilled physician stated, "The pulse is tight and rapid, indicating contraction of cold pathogens." The other physicians did not agree. The skilled physician said, "I have a method to verify this. Generate fire in a bathroom and bathe with warm decoction of fried wood and scallion. If it is a heat syndrome, sweat must occur in this warm environment, and the sore throat will not subside. If it is cold contraction, even bathing will not produce sweat." The patient believed him, entered the bath, but no sweat occurred. Consequently, he took one dose of Ma Huang Tang (Ephedra Decoction) in the bathroom. Shortly after, profuse sweating occurred, bowels moved freely, and he recovered immediately. All physicians marveled at his efficacy. This method can be used to distinguish between heat diseases and cold contraction. (From *Yi Yu*)
During the Xianping era, Wei Gong, Director of the Bureau of Military Affairs, resided in Tanzhou. Several young children were playing together, using a fishing rod with dates as bait to catch chicks on land. One child imitated them but accidentally swallowed the hook into his throat. Upon urgent pulling, the barbed hook could not be extracted. Various doctors were summoned but dared not attempt removal. Wei Gong was terrified and sent people to inquire among elderly women, believing someone with extensive experience could solve it.
An elderly woman over ninety years old stated she had never seen such a case and surmised that only someone with wisdom and insight could resolve it. At that time, there was a craftsman in the prefecture named Mo Duliang, known for his exceptional skill. Hearing this, Wei Gong called the old woman and reproached her, saying, "My son swallowed a hook; how can Mo Duliang extract it?" The old woman replied, "It is said that medicine relies on intent. That Mo Duliang once salvaged steles and pagodas underwater, adding inverted tiles." Wei Gong's relatives advised, "Try asking him." Wei Gong then summoned Mo Duliang. After deep contemplation, Mo Duliang requested a silkworm cocoon and a string of large prayer beads. Wei Gong provided them. Mo Duliang cut a piece of iron wire into a coin-sized disc, softened its edges, lubricated it with oil, and made a hole in the center. He first threaded the hook line through it, then strung three to five beads onto it. He instructed the child to sit upright with mouth open. Gradually, the beads were added and adjusted until they reached the throat, sensing the location where the hook line was tied. With forceful downward pressure, the hook detached. It was then quickly extracted upwards. The iron wire cocoon-like structure wrapped downwards around the hook line and barb, causing no damage upon removal. Wei Gong was overjoyed and rewarded him generously. Wei Gong remarked, "One whose mind is clear possesses great skill; one whose intent is focused possesses a good heart. This is the way of the healer." (From *Ming Yi Lu*)
