瘰之疾,亦犹是也。热气内结,搏聚于肝,肝主筋,肝藏血,久不瘥,故热聚于血,血腐

Commentary states: The *Neijing* (Inner Canon) records that when Ying Qi (Nutritive Qi) fails to flow smoothly and rebels within the muscle tissue, carbuncles and swellings arise. This is because Ying Qi rebellion leads to blood stasis; blood stasis causes heat accumulation, which transforms into pus. Scrofula (tuberculous lymphadenitis) follows the same principle. Heat qi knots internally, combing with and gathering at the Liver. The Liver governs the sinews and stores blood. If the disease persists for a long time without healing, heat accumulates in the blood, causing the blood to rot and transform into pus.
