（臣等亿等人按语：《伤寒论》中，伤寒和中风本是两种不同的疾病，如今文中说“伤寒中风”是不正确的。）
病源中关于中风和伤寒的症状表现：太阳中风证表现为脉象阳浮阴弱。阳浮则发热自生，阴弱则汗液自出；患者感到畏寒啬啬、恶风淅淅，伴有发热、鼻鸣、干呕，这就是其征候。
若对太阳中风证采用火疗强行发汗，邪风与火热相搏，导致气血运行溢出常度，两阳相互熏灼，身体就会发黄。阳气盛则想流鼻血，阴气虚则小便困难；若阴阳俱虚竭，身体就会干枯枯燥，仅头部出汗，至颈部而止，腹部胀满、轻微气喘、口干、咽喉溃烂，或者大便不通，日久则出现谵语（胡言乱语，原本作“谵”），严重者甚至发生呃逆，手足躁动不安，循衣摸床。若小便通利，其人尚可治疗。
阳明中风证表现为口苦、咽干、腹部胀满、轻微气喘、发热、恶寒、脉浮紧。如果误用下法，则会导致腹部胀满、小便困难。
少阳中风证表现为两耳听不见、目赤、胸中满闷且烦躁，不可使用吐法和下法，若误用吐下法，则会出现心悸和惊骇。
太阳中风证表现为四肢烦疼，若脉象阳微阴涩而长，是即将痊愈的征兆。
少阴中风证，若脉象阳微阴浮，是即将痊愈的征兆。
厥阴中风证，若脉象微浮，是即将痊愈；若不浮，则是未愈。（以上条文出自张仲景《伤寒论》，并见于第七卷中）
张仲景《伤寒论》中的桂枝汤，用于治疗太阳中风证，症见阳浮阴弱，阳浮者热自发，阴弱者汗自出，啬啬恶寒，淅淅恶风，发热，鼻鸣，干呕。
方药组成：桂枝、芍药、生姜（各三两）、甘草（二两，炙）、大枣（十二枚，掰开）。
以上五味药切碎，生姜掰开，大枣掰开，先切其余药物。以水七升，煮大枣至烂，去渣，然后加入其他药物。若水少则加水，煮至微微沸腾，取汁三升，去渣。每次服一升，每日三次。小儿酌情减量。第一次服药后若已出汗，后续服药时间可适当延长；若未出汗，可适当缩短服药间隔，使药力连续。出汗后注意防护，如同服用六物青散的方法。若病情重者，昼夜服药，特别需要避风。若服用一剂后，时辰到了病证仍未解除，且病证无变化，应当继续服用。有的病人不肯出汗，服用二三剂后才痊愈。服用此药片刻后，也应当喝热粥以助药力。若初得病时很重，便用火法发汗，火气太过，汗出不解，出现烦躁不得眠，因此汤中加入龙骨、牡蛎各三两，减少桂心、生姜各一两，不用芍药。若为虚劳里急、腹中痛者，取前方桂枝汤二升，加入胶饴一升，适寒温分两次服用。若大汗出后，只用桂枝二两。发汗后又再次发汗，导致亡阳谵语，若脉象反而平和，则不死。发汗后病解，约半日后又出现烦躁，脉象浮数，可再次发汗，宜用桂枝汤。
禁忌：海藻、生葱、菘菜等。（以上内容出自第二卷，《千金方》、《胡洽方》、《集验方》、《文仲方》、《备急方》、《范汪方》均有记载）
又方治疗伤寒引起的头痛、腰痛，身体骨节疼痛，发热、恶风，无汗而喘，用麻黄汤。
方药组成：麻黄（三两，去节）、桂心（二两）、甘草（炙一两）、杏仁（七十枚，去皮尖，双仁捣碎）。
以上四味药切碎，以水九升，先煮麻黄减二升，去掉上面的浮沫，加入其他药物，煮取二升半，去渣。每次服八合，覆盖身体取微汗，不需要喝热粥，其余调养方法同桂枝汤法。禁忌：海藻、菘菜、生葱。（臣等亿等人按语：张仲景《伤寒论》中麻黄汤主要……）
又方治疗太阳病项背强直拘急，反而出汗、恶风者，属于葛根汤证。
方药组成：葛根（四两）、麻黄（四两，去节）、甘草（二两，炙）、芍药、桂心（各二两）、生姜（三两）、大枣（十二枚，掰开）。

(Comment by Yi et al.: In the *Shanghan Lun* (Treatise on Cold Damage), Shanghan (Cold Damage) and Fengzhong (Wind Strike) are originally two distinct diseases. The current text's reference to "Shanghan Fengzhong" is incorrect.)
Regarding the pathological sources of symptoms for Fengzhong and Shanghan: Taiyang Fengzhong presents with a pulse that is floating at the superficial position (Yang) and weak at the deep position (Yin). Floating Yang indicates spontaneous heat generation; weak Yin indicates spontaneous sweating. The patient experiences severe aversion to cold (Sese Ehan), chilly aversion to wind (Xixi Efeng), fever, nasal congestion with roaring sounds (Biming), and dry retching (Gan'ou). These constitute its clinical presentation.
If fire therapy is used to forcibly induce sweating in Taiyang Fengzhong, the pathogenic wind combines with fire heat, causing blood and Qi to overflow their normal pathways. The mutual薰灼 (scorching/burning) of two Yangs leads to jaundice. Excess Yang may cause epistaxis; Yin deficiency leads to difficult urination. If both Yin and Yang are depleted, the body becomes dry and withered. Sweating occurs only on the head, stopping at the neck. Abdominal fullness, slight wheezing, dry mouth, and throat ulceration occur. Constipation may ensue; prolonged cases lead to delirium (Zhenyu, meaning talking nonsense, originally written as Zhen). Severe cases may progress to hiccups (Hui), restlessness of hands and feet, picking at clothes and beds. If urination is free, the patient can be treated.
Yangming Fengzhong presents with bitter taste in the mouth, dry throat, abdominal fullness, slight wheezing, fever, aversion to cold, and a floating-tight pulse. If purgation is mistakenly applied, it results in abdominal fullness and difficult urination.
In Yangming disease, the ability to eat indicates Fengzhong, while inability to eat indicates Zhonghan (Cold Strike).
Shaoyang Fengzhong presents with deafness, red eyes, chest fullness, and irritability. Vomiting and purgation are contraindicated; if mistakenly applied, palpitations and fright occur.
Taiyang Fengzhong presents with painful heaviness in the four limbs. If the pulse is slightly weak at Yang, choppy yet long at Yin, recovery is imminent.
Shaoyin Fengzhong: if the pulse is slightly weak at Yang and floating at Yin, recovery is imminent.
Jueyin Fengzhong: if the pulse is slightly floating, recovery is imminent; if not floating, it has not healed. (These passages are from Zhang Zhongjing's *Shanghan Lun*, also found in Volume 7.)
Guizhi Tang (Cinnamon Twig Decoction) from Zhang Zhongjing's *Shanghan Lun* treats Taiyang Fengzhong characterized by floating Yang and weak Yin, spontaneous heat, spontaneous sweating, severe aversion to cold, chilly aversion to wind, fever, Biming, and Gan'ou.
Ingredients: Guizhi (Cinnamon Twig), Shaoyao (White Peony Root), Shengjiang (Fresh Ginger) (each 3 liang); Gancao (Licorice Root), roasted (2 liang); Dazao (Jujube) (12 pieces, torn open).
Chop the five herbs. Tear open the ginger and jujubes. First cut the remaining herbs. Add seven sheng of water, boil the jujubes until soft, remove the dregs, then add the other herbs. If water decreases, replenish it. Boil until gently simmering to obtain three sheng. Remove dregs. Take one sheng per dose, three times daily. Reduce dosage for children according to circumstances. If sweating occurs after the first dose, extend the interval between subsequent doses. If no sweating occurs, shorten the interval to ensure continuous medicinal effect. Protect against wind after sweating, similar to the method for Liuwu Qingsan. For severe cases, administer day and night, strictly avoiding wind. If the condition persists after one dose without change, continue administration. Some patients may require two or three doses to induce sweating and heal. After taking this medicine, drink hot congee to assist the medicinal power. If the initial illness was severe and fire therapy was used, excessive fire heat may fail to resolve sweating, leading to irritability and insomnia. In such cases, add Longgu (Fossilized Bones) and Muli (Oyster Shell) each 3 liang to the decoction, reduce Guixin (Cinnamon Heart) and Shengjiang each by 1 liang, and omit Shaoyao. For deficiency-cold with interior urgency and abdominal pain, take two sheng of the aforementioned Guizhi Tang, add Jiaoyi (Malt Sugar) one sheng, and divide into two warm doses. If profuse sweating occurs, use only 2 liang of Guizhi. Repeated sweating after initial sweating leads to Yang collapse and delirium; if the pulse remains harmonious, death does not ensue. If the condition resolves after sweating but returns with irritance after half a day, with a floating-rapid pulse, sweating may be re-induced using Guizhi Tang.
Contraindications: Haizao (Seaweed), raw Cong (Scallion), Songcai (Chinese Cabbage), etc. (From Volume 2; also recorded in *Qianjin Fang*, *Huqia Fang*, *Jiyan Fang*, *Wenzhong Fang*, *Beiji Fang*, *Fanwang Fang*.)
Another formula for Shanghan presenting with headache, lower back pain, body and joint pain, fever, aversion to wind, anhidrosis, and wheezing is Mahuang Tang (Ephedra Decoction).
Ingredients: Mahuang (Ephedra Herb) (3 liang, nodes removed), Guixin (Cinnamon Heart) (2 liang), Gancao (Licorice Root), roasted (1 liang), Xingren (Apricot Seed) (70 pieces, skin and tip removed, crushed).
Chop the four herbs. Add nine sheng of water, boil Mahuang to reduce by two sheng, skim off the foam, add other herbs, and boil to obtain two and a half sheng. Remove dregs. Take eight ge per dose. Cover to induce slight sweating. Hot congee is not required. Rest care follows the Guizhi Tang method. Contraindications: Haizao, Songcai, raw Cong. (Comment by Yi et al.: In Zhang Zhongjing's *Shanghan Lun*, Mahuang Tang primarily...)
Another formula for Taiyang disease presenting with stiffness and tension in the nape and back (Jiangbei Qiangji), accompanied by sweating and aversion to wind, belongs to Gegen Tang (Kudzu Decoction).
Ingredients: Gegen (Kudzu Root) (4 liang), Mahuang (Ephedra Herb) (4 liang, nodes removed), Gancao (Licorice Root), roasted (2 liang), Shaoyao (White Peony Root), Guixin (Cinnamon Heart) (each 2 liang), Shengjiang (Fresh Ginger) (3 liang), Dazao (Jujube) (12 pieces, torn open).
Chop the seven herbs. Add ten sheng of water, boil Mahuang and Gegen to reduce by two sheng, skim off the foam, add other herbs, and boil to obtain three sheng. Remove dregs. Take one sheng warm. Cover to induce slight sweating. Hot congee is not needed to assist sweating. Rest care follows the Guizhi Tang method. Contraindications: Haizao, Songcai, raw Cong. (From Volume 3. Zhang Zhongjing's *Shanghan Lun* uses Guizhi Tang for Fengzhong with sweating; this case describes no sweating, indicating it is a Shanghan disease, not Fengzhong.)
The Weirui Tang (Polygonatum Decoction) from *Duanju* treats Winter-Warmth and Spring Wind-Strike/Cold-Damage, presenting with fever, vertigo and headache, dry throat, stiff tongue, chest pain, chest oppression, and stiffness/fullness in the waist and back.
Ingredients: Weirui (Polygonatum Rhizome) (2 liang), Shigao (Gypsum Fibrosum) (3 fen, powdered, wrapped in silk), Baiwei (Anemarrhenae Rhizome) (2 liang), Mahuang (Ephedra Herb) (2 liang, nodes removed), Duhuo (Angelicae Pubescentis Radix) (2 liang), Xingren (Apricot Seed) (2 liang, skin and tip removed, double kernels), Xiongqiong (Ligusticum Chuanxiong Rhizome) (2 liang), Gancao (Licorice Root), roasted (2 liang), Qingmuxiang (Styrax Benzoin) (2 liang; if unavailable, replace with 1 fen of Shexiang/Musk).
Chop the nine herbs. Add eight sheng of water, boil to obtain three sheng. Divide into three doses to induce sweating. If alternating chills and fever occur, add Puxiao (Mirabilite) 1 fen and Dahuang (Rhubarb Root) 3 liang to purge. Contraindications: Haizao, Songcai. (From Volume 6; *Gujin Luyan* records the same formula with 2 liang of Gegen.)
*Qianjin Fang* treats Shanghan/Fengzhong persisting for five to six days, presenting only with chest irritability and dry retching, using Gualou Shi Tang (Trichosanthes Fruit Decoction).
Ingredients: Gualoushi (Trichosanthes Fruit) (1 liang), Chaihu (Bupleuri Radix) (8 liang), Huangqin (Scutellariae Radix) (3 liang), Gancao (Licorice Root), roasted (3 liang), Shengjiang (Fresh Ginger) (4 liang, sliced), Dazao (Jujube) (10 pieces, torn open).
Chop the six herbs finely but do not crush them completely. Blow away dust/powder. Add twelve sheng of water, boil to obtain six sheng, strain, and decoct again to obtain three sheng. Take one sheng warm, three times daily. Contraindications: Haizao, Songcai. (From Volume 10.)
*Qianjin Yifang* treats Fengzhong with fever persisting for six to seven days without resolution, accompanied by irritability, exterior-interior signs, thirst, drinking water followed by vomiting. This is Water-Reversal (Shuini), treated with Wuling San (Five-Ingredient Powder with Poria).
Ingredients: Zhuling (Polyporus) (3 fen), Zexie (Alisma Rhizome) (5 fen), Fuling (Poria) (3 fen), Guixin (Cinnamon Heart) (2 fen), Baizhu (Atractylodis Macrocephalae Rhizome) (3 fen).
Pulverize the five herbs. Take one cun-bi (square inch measure) with water, three times daily. Drink plenty of warm water; sweating indicates cure. Contraindications: Taoli (Peach/Plum), vinegar substances, raw Cong, Sparrow meat, etc.
Another case: Shanghan/Fengzhong treated incorrectly with purgation by the physician. The patient suffers diarrhea dozens of times daily, undigested food, borborygmus in the abdomen, epigastric hardness and fullness, dry retching, irritability, and inability to rest. Seeing the epigastric fullness, the physician assumes residual pathogen and applies purgation again, worsening the fullness. This is not heat binding, but stomach deficiency with rebellious Qi ascending, causing hardness. Treat with Gancao Xiexin Tang (Licorice Decoction for Draining the Epigastrium).
Ingredients: Gancao (Licorice Root), roasted (4 liang), Huangqin (Scutellariae Radix) (3 liang), Dazao (Jujube) (12 pieces, torn open), Huanglian (Coptidis Rhizome) (1 liang), Jiangjiang (Dried Ginger) (2 liang), Banxia (Pinelliae Tuber) (0.5 sheng, washed to remove slipperiness).
Chop the six herbs. Add ten sheng of water, boil to obtain six sheng. Divide into six doses. Contraindications: Haizao, Songcai, pork, mutton, malt sugar. (From Volume 9; one version includes Renshen (Ginseng Root) 3 liang.)
*Gujin Luyan* treats Fengzhong/Shanghan with floating pulse, fever, alternating sweating, aversion to wind, neck stiffness, Biming, and Gan'ou. Treat with Yangdan Tang (Yang Dawn Decoction).
Ingredients: Dazao (Jujube) (12 pieces, torn open), Guizhi (Cinnamon Twig) (3 liang), Shaoyao (White Peony Root) (3 liang), Shengjiang (Fresh Ginger) (3 liang), Gancao (Licorice Root), roasted (3 liang), Huangqin (Scutellariae Radix) (2 liang).
Chop the six herbs. Add six sheng of spring water, boil to obtain four sheng. Divide into four doses, three times daily. If spontaneous sweating occurs, remove Guixin and add one Paofuzi (Prepared Aconite Root). If thirsty, remove Guizhi and add 3 liang of Gualou. If diarrhea occurs, remove Shaoyao and Guizhi, add 3 liang of Jiangjiang and one Paofuzi. If palpitations occur, remove Shaoyao and add 4 liang of Fuling. For deficiency-cold with interior urgency, Zhengyang Dan Tang is indicated: decoct to obtain two sheng, add half sheng of Jiaoyi, and divide into two doses. Contraindicated if pulse is floating-tight with fever. Contraindications: Haizao, Songcai, raw Cong, etc. (*Qianjin Fang* agrees.)
Daqinglong Tang (Great Blue Dragon Decoction) treats Taiyang Fengzhong with floating-tight pulse, fever, aversion to cold, body pain, anhidrosis, and irritability.
Ingredients: Mahuang (Ephedra Herb) (6 liang, nodes removed), Guizhi (Cinnamon Twig) (2 liang), Gancao (Licorice Root), roasted (2 liang), Shigao (Gypsum Fibrosum) (size of a chicken egg, crushed, wrapped in silk), Shengjiang (Fresh Ginger) (3 liang), Xingren (Apricot Seed) (40 pieces, double kernels and tips removed), Dazao (Jujube) (10 pieces, torn open).
Chop the seven herbs. Add nine sheng of water, boil Mahuang first to reduce by two sheng, skim foam, then add other herbs. Boil to obtain three sheng. Remove dregs. Take one sheng per dose. Cover thickly to induce slight sweating. If sweating is excessive, apply warm powder. Do not re-administer if sweating occurs after one dose. Re-administration may cause excessive sweating, Yang collapse, deficiency, aversion to wind, irritability, and insomnia. Contraindications: Haizao, Songcai, raw Cong, etc. (From Volume 2. Zhang Zhongjing's *Shanghan Lun* states: If Fengzhong presents with Shanghan pulse, this may be taken.)
