《巢氏病源》记载：有干癣、湿癣、白癣、顽癣，这些病症的候象皆因风热之邪，邪气客居在腠理（皮肤纹理与肌肉间隙），又恰逢邪气与血气相互搏结，从而引发此疾。皮损表现为瘾疹（皮肤上出现的红色或苍白色小疙瘩），形状如铜钱纹路，逐渐扩大，形态或圆或斜，边缘清晰，瘙痒疼痛程度不一，病灶内部似有虫生，搔抓后渗出汁液，日久蔓延至全身，则形成顽痹，因此称为顽癣。

The *Chaoshi Bingyuan* (Source Book of Diseases and Syndromes by Chao Yuanfang) states: There are Dry Tinea (Gan Xuan), Damp Tinea (Shi Xuan), White Tinea (Bai Xuan), and Stubborn Tinea (Wan Xuan). The manifestations of these conditions arise from Wind-Heat pathogenic factors lodging in the Couli (interstices of skin and muscle). When pathogenic factors contend with Qi and Blood, this disease develops. Skin eruptions appear like coin patterns, gradually expanding, either round or oblique, with distinct borders. Itching and pain vary. Parasites seem to breed within the borders. Scratching exudes fluid. Over time, it spreads over the whole body, forming stubborn Bi obstruction, hence named Wan Xuan.
