【病因】五脏功能调和，则营气与卫气运行通畅。营卫之气通畅，则津液流通无阻。即使大量饮水浆，也不会致病。
若调养失当，则三焦气机痞塞阻隔。三焦痞塞，则肠胃不能正常宣通运行。此时若饮水浆，便会导致水饮停滞不散。再遇到寒气积聚，便形成癖病。所谓癖病，是指病邪偏侧位于两胁之间，有时会出现疼痛症状。其汤药外敷、艾灸、针刺砭石等疗法，另有专门的正方。补益养生及导引之术，现附于后。《养生》云：睡醒后不要立即喝水再睡觉，否则会使人患上“水癖”。又云：饮水时不要急促吞咽，久而久之会形成“水癖”。又云：抬起双膝夹住脸颊两侧，双手撑地蹲坐，长期练习可治愈伏梁病。伏梁病，是指宿食不消化而形成的癖病，腹中感觉像杯子或盘子一样硬块。宿痈，是指宿水宿气癖积久而生成的痈肿，时间久了肠道会化为筋脉，骨骼变为坚实。（出自第二十卷）

《必效方》治疗癖病的方剂。
取车下李仁（即落在地上的李子核中的仁），用微热水退去皮及种仁，与干面粉各半，捣碎做成饼状。如果太干，加少许淡水像平常揉面那样和匀。大小如同病患手掌，做成两个饼。轻微烘烤至变黄，不要烤熟。空腹吃一个饼，应当会有畅快的大便排出。如果未排便，再吃一个饼。或者喝热粥汁即可排便。以畅快排便为度。到了午后如果腹泻不止，就用醋饭来止泻。排便后身体会感到虚弱。如果病邪未尽，根据体力情况，一两天后再进服一次。以病邪尽除为限。小儿也酌情减量。不得食用奶酪及牛马肉。没有不有效的。但病情重者，李仁与面粉比例各半；轻者酌情减少。病情减轻后，服药者也可根据体力频繁尝试，直至痊愈，效果神妙。

[Pathogenesis] When the five Zang organs are harmonious, Ying (Nutritive) Qi and Wei (Defensive) Qi flow smoothly. When Ying and Wei Qi are smooth, body fluids circulate freely. Even if one drinks large amounts of water or liquids, it will not cause disease.
If health preservation is improper, the San Jiao (Triple Burner) becomes obstructed. Obstruction of the San Jiao prevents the stomach and intestines from functioning normally. Consequently, ingested water stagnates and fails to disperse. If cold pathogenic factors accumulate, "Pi" (masses/accumulations) form. Pi refers to masses located laterally between the two hypochondriac regions, which sometimes cause pain. Therapies such as decoctions, external heat applications, moxibustion, acupuncture, and stone therapy have separate specific prescriptions. Tonifying regimens and Daoyin (guiding and pulling) exercises are attached below. *Yangsheng* states: Do not drink water upon waking and then go back to sleep, as this causes "Shui Pi" (Water Mass). It also states: Do not swallow water hastily; doing so over time leads to Water Mass. Furthermore, lift both knees to clamp against the sides of the cheeks, place hands on the ground, and squat. Long-term practice cures Fuliang (Over-riding Beam) disease. Fuliang refers to indigestion forming masses, where the abdomen feels hard like a cup or plate. Su Yong (Old Abscess) refers to abscesses generated by long-standing water and Qi masses; prolonged cases may result in intestines transforming into sinews and bones becoming solid. (From Volume 20)

Crush and sieve the above twelve ingredients. Mix with honey to make pills. Take on an empty stomach with warm wine. Size of Sophora japonica seeds (Wu Zi), 20 pills per dose, twice daily. Gradually increase to 30 pills. Reduce dosage for elderly and children. Avoid raw/cold, greasy foods, adzuki beans, sticky foods, amaranth, vinegar, raw green onions, and pork. (From Volume 2)

Cut the above three ingredients. Boil in 5 sheng of water until reduced to 2 sheng. Divide into three warm doses. After taking 30 courses, the disease will be completely cured. Avoid plums, peaches, and sparrow meat. (From Volume 19)
*Bixiao Fang* (Prescription of Certain Effect) Prescription for Treating Pi.
Take Li Ren (Pruni Semen) from fallen plums. Remove skins and kernels using slightly hot water. Mix equal parts kernel and dry flour. Pound into cakes. If too dry, add a little fresh water and knead as usual. Make two cakes, each the size of the patient's palm. Lightly roast until yellow, do not cook thoroughly. Eat one cake on an empty stomach. One should experience a comfortable bowel movement. If no movement occurs, eat another cake. Alternatively, drinking hot porridge juice may induce movement. The goal is a comfortable bowel movement. If diarrhea persists after noon, stop it with vinegar-rice. Bowel movements may cause weakness. If pathogens remain, take another dose after one or two days based on strength. Continue until pathogens are exhausted. Adjust dosage for children. Avoid cheese and beef/horse meat. This is effective for all cases. For severe illness, use half kernel and half flour; for mild illness, reduce accordingly. As symptoms improve, patients may try frequently based on tolerance until cured. It is miraculous.
Another Prescription
Dahuang (Rhei Radix et Rhizoma, 10 liang)
Pound and sieve the single ingredient. Mix with 3 sheng of vinegar and boil. Add two spoonfuls of white honey. Boil until suitable for making pills, size of Sophora japonica seeds. Take 30 pills per dose. Stop when bowel movements become loose. Reduce dosage for children.

Cut the above ten ingredients. Boil in 3 sheng of water. First boil Dahuang and the other six ingredients until reduced to slightly more than 0.5 sheng. Strain to remove dregs. Add Niuhuang and the other four ingredients. Mix well. Divide into three doses. Take each dose at intervals equivalent to walking ten li. Follow dietary restrictions as prescribed. If excretions resemble peach gum or meat paste, this indicates the expulsion of pathogens. Strictly avoid beef and horse meat. All measurements refer to large units (Da Liang/Da Sheng). This dosage is for persons aged fifteen and above. For children under ten, reduce dosage according to condition. Avoid amaranth, seaweed, Chinese cabbage, and blood-generating foods.
