至元壬午年五月二十八日。王伯禄年龄超过五十七岁。右臂肿胀严重，向上延伸至肩部，向下延伸至手指，肤色改变，皮肤发凉，六脉沉细而微弱。这是脉象与证候均表现为寒象。我请疡医孙彦和来诊视。他说：这是附骨痈（生于骨骼深处的痈疽），治疗已经延误，应用燔针（烧红的针）刺破排脓。流出脓液清稀。第二天在肘部下方再次切开排脓，随后出现不停打嗝的症状。孙彦和给予丁香柿蒂散服用两剂，症状稍缓解。第二天，打嗝更加严重，伴有自发性腹泻，脐腹部冷痛，腹部胀满，饮食减少，时常发生神志昏乱。我在其左乳下黑色尽处施灸十四壮。又开具托里温中汤，使用干姜、附子、木香、沉香、茴香、羌活等药物。将药材切碎成粗末一两半，准备给患者服用。有人说道：“各种疼痛、瘙痒、疮疡，都属于心火。”况且正值盛夏酷暑之时，使用干姜、附子可以吗？我回答说：理所当然，不得不如此。《内经》说：脉象细弱、皮肤寒冷、前后二便泄利、饮食无法入口，这称为“五虚”。何况打嗝，是因为胃中虚寒所致。“各种疼痛、瘙痒、疮疡，都属于心火”，这是指一般常理而言。此证内外表现相反，应当舍弃时令因素而顺从证候特点。不用大剂量辛热之剂急治，就不能痊愈。于是投药服用。所有症状全部消除，饮食倍增增加，疮势温和，脓色正常。孙彦和又用五香汤服用数剂，一个月后完全康复。唉！墨守常规是普通人的见解，懂得变通是有智慧者的行为。知道常规却不懂得变通，因小失大导致失败的情况也很多，更何况是医学呢？墨守常规与懂得变通，岂能相提并论呢？
【托里温中汤】治疗疮疡因寒邪变异而内陷者，症见脓出清稀，皮肤发凉，心下部痞塞胀满，肠鸣剧烈疼痛，大便微溏，进食则呕吐逆气，气短急促，打嗝不止，不能安卧，时常发生神志昏乱。
沉香、丁香、益智仁、茴香（各一钱），木香（一钱半），甘草（炙，二钱），羌活，干姜（炮制，三钱），黑附子（炮制，去皮脐，四钱）。
以上药材切碎成粗末，作为一服。用水三盏，生姜五片，煎煮至一盏，去渣滓，随时温服。忌食一切生冷食物。《内经》说：寒邪侵袭体内，用辛热药物治疗，辅以苦温药物。所以用附子、干姜大辛大热之性，温暖中焦，激发阳气由里达表，故作为君药。羌活味苦辛温，透达关节；炙甘草甘温，补益脾胃，通行经络，通畅血脉。胃寒则呕吐、打嗝、不能进食。益智仁、丁香、沉香，大辛大热，以散寒作为佐药。疮毒之气内攻，气聚而成痞满。木香、茴香、陈皮，苦辛温，治疗痞塞消散胀满，作为使药。
On the 28th day of the fifth month in the Renwu year of Zhiyuan, Wang Bolu was over fifty-seven years old. His right arm was severely swollen, extending up to the shoulder and down to the fingers. The skin color changed, and the skin felt cold. The six pulses were deep, fine, and faint. This indicated that both the pulse and the syndrome manifested as Cold. I invited Sun Yanhe, a surgeon specializing in sores and ulcers, to examine the patient. He said: "This is Aggu Yong (deep-seated abscess involving bone). Treatment has been delayed; it should be treated with burning needles (Fanzhen) to drain the pus. The discharged pus was clear and thin. The following day, another incision was made below the elbow. Subsequently, hiccups became incessant. Sun Yanhe prescribed Dingxiang Shidi San (Clove and Persimmon Calyx Powder) for two doses, which provided slight relief. The next day, the hiccups worsened significantly. There was spontaneous diarrhea, cold pain around the navel and abdomen, abdominal fullness, reduced food intake, and episodes of mental confusion. I applied moxibustion at the point where the blackness ended under the left breast, fourteen moxa cones. I then prescribed Tuoli Wenzhong Tang (Supporting Interior and Warming Middle Decoction), using Ganjiang (Dried Ginger), Fuzi (Prepared Aconite Root), Muxiang (Costus Root), Chenxiang (Agarwood), Huixiang (Fennel Seed), Qianghuo (Notopterygium Rhizome), etc. The herbs were coarsely powdered to one tael and half, ready for administration. Someone remarked: 'All pain, itching, sores, and ulcers belong to Heart Fire.' Moreover, it is the height of summer heat; can we use Ganjiang and Fuzi?" I replied: "It is logically necessary and unavoidable. The *Neijing* states: 'Fine pulse, cold skin, diarrhea from both bowels, and inability to eat—this is called the Five Deficiencies.' Furthermore, hiccups are caused by deficiency-cold in the Stomach. 'All pain, itching, sores, and ulcers belong to Heart Fire' refers to the general principle. In this case, the internal and external manifestations are contradictory; one must abandon the seasonal factor and follow the syndrome. Without urgent treatment using large doses of acrid-hot agents, recovery is impossible." Consequently, the medicine was administered. All symptoms disappeared, food intake doubled, the sore became mild, and the pus color normalized. Sun Yanhe again used Wuxiang Tang (Five Fragrances Decoction) for several doses, and after more than a month, the patient fully recovered. Alas! Adhering to convention is the view of ordinary people; knowing how to adapt is the deed of the wise. Knowing the constant but not knowing change leads to failure even in trivial matters, let alone in medicine. Can adhering to convention and knowing change be compared?
[Tuoli Wenzhong Tang] Treats cases where sores/ulcers undergo cold transformation and sink inward, characterized by clear and thin pus discharge, cold skin, epigastric stuffiness and fullness, loud borborygmi with cutting pain, slightly loose stools, vomiting and regurgitation upon eating, shortness of breath, incessant hiccups, inability to lie down comfortably, and occasional mental confusion.
Chenxiang (Aquilaria Wood), Dingxiang (Clove Bud), Yizhiren (Alpinia Oxyphylla Fruit), Huixiang (Fennel Seed) (each 1 qian); Muxiang (Costus Root) (1.5 qian); Gancao (Licorice Root, honey-fried) (2 qian); Qianghuo (Notopterygium Rhizome); Ganjiang (Dried Ginger, processed) (3 qian); Hei Fuzi (Black Prepared Aconite Root, processed, skin and umbilical scar removed) (4 qian).
Coarsely powder the above ingredients to constitute one dose. Add three cups of water and five slices of fresh ginger. Decoct until one cup remains, strain, and take warm at any time. Avoid all cold foods. The *Neijing* states: "When Cold invades internally, treat with acrid-hot agents, assisted by bitter-warm agents." Therefore, Fuzi and Ganjiang, being greatly acrid and hot, are used as Sovereign herbs to warm the interior and exterior, and to stimulate Yang Qi to emerge from the interior to the exterior. Qianghuo is bitter, acrid, and warm, penetrating the joints; honey-fried Gancao is sweet and warm, tonifying the Spleen and Stomach, unblocking meridians, and circulating blood vessels. Stomach Cold causes vomiting, hiccups, and anorexia. Yizhiren, Dingxiang, and Chenxiang are greatly acrid and hot, serving as Assistant herbs to disperse Cold. Pathogenic Qi from the sore attacks inward, causing Qi stagnation and fullness. Muxiang, Huixiang, and Chenpi (Aged Tangerine Peel) are bitter, acrid, and warm, treating stuffiness and dispersing fullness, serving as Envoy herbs.
