Another method for treating abdominal distension with edema:
Moxibustion on the Pi Shu (Spleen-Shu, BL20) acupoint, number of cones based on the patient's age. The acupoint is located 1.5 cun lateral to the lower border of the eleventh thoracic vertebra. (Same as recorded in *Yi*)
Another method for treating abdominal distension with borborygmus like thunder and fluid turbulence like boiling wine:
Moxibustion on the Da Chang Shu (Large Intestine-Shu, BL25) acupoint, 100 moxa cones per side, administered three times. The acupoint is located 1.5 cun lateral to the lower border of the sixteenth thoracic vertebra. (Same as recorded in *Yi*)
Another method for treating abdominal distension with qi accumulation and cold sensation:
Moxibustion on the Wei Guan (Stomach Tube, i.e., Zhong Wan CV12) acupoint, located 3 cun below the Xin Jiu Wei (Heart Tail, i.e., Jianji CV15). Administer 100 moxa cones, three times. (Same as recorded in *Yi*)
Another method for treating abdominal distension with peri-umbilical knotting pain, hardness, and inability to eat:
Moxibustion on the Zhong Guan (Middle Tube, i.e., Zhong Wan CV12) acupoint, 100 moxa cones per side. The acupoint is located 1 cun above the umbilicus, also known as Shui Fen (Water Division, CV9). (Same as recorded in *Yi*)
Another method for treating abdominal distension, jia ju (masses), leukorrhea with pain:
Moxibustion on the Qi Hai (Sea of Qi, CV6) acupoint, 100 moxa cones per side. The acupoint is located 1.5 cun below the umbilicus. Acupuncture is contraindicated. (Same as recorded in *Yi*)
Another method for treating abdominal distension with qi knotting resembling edema, and a hard abdomen like stone:
Moxibustion on the Mu point of the Bladder (Zhong Ji CV3), 100 moxa cones per side. The acupoint is located at Zhong Ji, 4 cun below the umbilicus. (Same as recorded in *Yi*)
Another method for treating abdominal distension, kidney cold, jia ju with diarrhea and dysentery:

Another method for treating qi knotting:
Bian Que said, the acupoint named Que Shu (Gate-Shu, likely referring to Jue Yin Shu BL14) is located 1.5 cun lateral to the lower border of the fourth thoracic vertebra. It governs diaphragmatic qi in the chest. Moxibustion dosage is based on the patient's age. (Tong An notes: Guan should be Que; the point 1.5 cun lateral to the fourth thoracic vertebra is indeed Jue Yin Shu)
Another method governing various heart and abdominal diseases, hardness and fullness with vexation and pain,忧思 (worry and thought) qi knotting, cold huoluan (cholera-like disorder), heart pain with vomiting and diarrhea, food indigestion, borborygmus, and diarrhea/dysentery:

Another method governing qi knotting encapsulation, where acupuncture and herbs are ineffective:
Moxibustion on the Huang Mu (Huang Abdomen-Mu) acupoints (two points). Location measurement: from the nipple obliquely measure to the center of the umbilicus, then bend back and measure down from the nipple to the head (ancient measurement description). Moxibustion dosage is based on the patient's age. (Tong An notes: According to *Tong Ren Jing* measurements, these correspond to the positions of Ri Yue GB24 and Dan Mu (GB24), but their indications differ. The Liver Mu Qimen LR14 is located 0.5 cun above this point, and its indications are quite similar.)
