小儿患有一种名为“白虎”的疾病,不可不加以考察。据《统天历游年图》记载:白虎位于太岁前一位地支。例如,如果太岁在巳位,那么白虎就在辰位;如果太岁在申位,那么白虎就在未位,其余依此类推。当小儿处于白神所值之方位时,若不知禁忌,随意出入居住,稍有触犯冒犯,就会引发疾病。其症状表现为身体微热,有时稍感发冷,啼哭叫喊,手指屈伸计数状,手足轻微抽搐。

(此处原文缺字,根据上下文及中医古籍常识,应为“鬼疰”或类似邪祟之名,但依据指令只提取明确出现实体,故此处仅翻译可见文字逻辑),这是小鬼作祟。小儿之所以患此病,是因为母亲未满一周年就再次怀孕,小儿继续哺乳所致,因此称为此病。其症状导致小儿寒热交替,面色黄瘦,骨骼空虚脱发,日渐消瘦。治疗方法是,迅速断绝母乳,温补调理胃气,调和血脉,自然痊愈。
龙胆汤 治疗小儿此病。
龙胆草、钩藤、柴胡、桔梗、芍药、川川芎、茯苓、甘草(炙,各一钱)、人参(五分)、大黄(蒸,一钱半)

胸部高耸肿胀突出,形状像乌龟,这是因为肺受邪气侵袭,久喘所致;也有因乳母多食五辛(五种辛辣刺激性食物),感应于小儿而致病。背部高耸弯曲,这是由于风寒客居于脊骨,或因过早坐立所致,多形成顽固性疾病。间或有通过艾灸取得疗效的。

Children may suffer from a disease called "White Tiger" (Baihu), which must not be overlooked. According to the *Tongtian Li Younian Tu* (Chart of Annual Traveling Years in the Tongtian Calendar): The White Tiger is located one Earthly Branch position preceding the Tai Sui (Grand Duke Jupiter). For instance, if the Tai Sui is in Si (Snake), then the White Tiger is in Chen (Dragon); if the Tai Sui is in Shen (Monkey), then the White Tiger is in Wei (Goat), and so on. When a child is in the direction governed by the White Tiger deity, if they are unaware of taboos and enter or reside there, even slight exposure or offense can cause illness. The manifestations include slight fever, occasional chills, crying and calling out, flexing fingers as if counting, and mild twitching of the hands and feet.
Jixiang San (Gathering Fragrance Powder) treats White Tiger disease.
Jiang Zhen Xiang (Cinnabar-authenticated Agarwood), Chen Xiang (Aquilaria Wood), Ru Xiang (Frankincense), Tan Xiang (Sandalwood), An Xi Xiang (Benzoin), Ren Shen (Ginseng), Fu Shen (Poria with Hostwood), Gan Cao (Licorice Root, honey-fried), Suan Zao Ren (Ziziphus Seed) (all in equal proportions).
Crush the herbs, decoct in water, and add one "zi" (a traditional small weight unit) of She Xiang (Musk). Take at any time; burn the herbal dregs in the room.

[Text missing character, context implies a malevolent spirit or affliction]. This is caused by a petty ghost/spirit. Children contract this illness because their mother becomes pregnant again before completing one year postpartum, and the child continues to breastfeed; hence it is named thus. The symptoms manifest as alternating cold and heat, sallow emaciation, hollow bones with hair loss, and progressive wasting. The treatment method is to rapidly wean the child, warm and regulate Stomach Qi, harmonize the blood vessels, and recovery will occur naturally.
Longdan Tang (Gentian Decoction) treats this pediatric condition.

Crush the herbs, take 2 qian per dose, decoct in well water, and administer before meals. At night, it is auspicious to carry Ye Ming Sha (Cicada Slough) in a red gauze pouch.

The chest is high, swollen, and protruding, resembling a turtle shell. This results from Lung pathogenic invasion causing chronic asthma. It may also arise from the nursing mother consuming excessive "Five Pungents" (Wu Xin: five pungent spices/vegetables), which transmits influence to the infant. The back is high and hunched. This occurs when Wind-Cold invades the spinal column, or due to sitting too early, often becoming a chronic stubborn disease. Occasionally, moxibustion yields success.
