论述:所谓中风导致身体肢体不能随意运动,是因为关节松弛缓纵,筋脉失去约束力,所以四肢都无法使用。这是由于腠理(皮肤毛孔)开泄疏松,风邪侵袭了脾胃的经脉。脾胃既然虚弱,就不能传输和化生气血津液以滋养全身,因此四肢得不到禀受和滋养。这正是《内经》所说的脾病会导致四肢无法使用的道理。

Discussion: The condition of hemiplegia (body paralysis) caused by wind-stroke is due to the laxity and relaxation of joints, and the loss of constraint in tendons and vessels, resulting in the inability to use all four limbs. This occurs because the interstices (skin pores) are open and loose, allowing wind pathogens to invade the meridians of the Spleen and Stomach. Since the Spleen and Stomach are deficient, they cannot transport and transform Qi and fluids to nourish the body; thus, the four limbs receive no nourishment. This corresponds to what the *Neijing* states: "Spleen disease leads to the inability to use the four limbs."
