病源:所谓积聚,是由于阴阳失调,脏腑虚弱,感受风邪,邪气与脏腑之气相搏结而形成的。腑属阳,脏属阴。阳气轻浮而主动,阴气沉潜而主静。积证是由阴气在五脏产生的,发病时不离其部位,所以疼痛上下有定处;聚证是由阳气在六腑形成的,没有固定的根本,上下流动无停留之处,所以疼痛没有固定位置。各种脏器受邪,起初并不能形成积聚,只有邪气留滞不去,才会形成积聚。
肝的积证名为肥气,位于左胁下,形状像倒扣的杯子,有头有足。久治不愈,会使人发作疟疾,连绵数月不止。此病多在夏季末的戊己日得之。为什么这样说呢?因为肺病应当传变给肝,肝病应当传变给脾。但在季夏(长夏)时节,脾土当令旺盛,王气不受邪气侵犯。肝欲将邪气返还给肺,但……(原文此处似有脱漏或语意未完,结合上下文逻辑,通常解释为肝欲还邪于肺,肺亦不受,故留结为积,但原文仅写到“肺”字后接下一段,此处依原文直译)。
心的积证名为伏梁,起于脐上,大如手臂,向上延伸至心下。此病多在秋季的庚辛日得之。为什么这样说呢?因为肾病应当传变给心,心病应当传变给肺。在秋季,肺金当令旺盛,王者不受邪。心欲将邪气返还给肾,肾不肯接受,所以邪气留结成为积证。因此知道伏梁是在秋季庚辛日得之。
脾的积证名为痞气,位于胃脘部,覆盖面积大如盘子。久治不愈,会使人四肢无力不收摄,发黄疸,饮食不能化为肌肤营养。此病多在冬季的壬癸日得之。为什么这样说呢?因为肝病应当传变给脾,脾病应当传变给肾。在冬季,肾水当令旺盛,王者不受邪。脾欲将邪气返还给肝,肝不肯接受,所以邪气留结成为积证。因此知道痞气是在冬季壬癸日得之。
肺的积证名为息贲,位于右胁下,覆盖面积大如杯子。久治不愈,会使人洒淅恶寒发热,喘咳,发为肺痈。此病多在春季的甲乙日得之。为什么这样说呢?因为心病应当传变给肺,肺病应当传变给肝。在春季,肝木当令旺盛,王者不受邪。肺欲将邪气返还给心,心不肯接受,所以邪气留结成为积证。因此知道息贲是在春季甲乙日得之。
肾的积证名为贲豚,发于少腹,向上延伸至心下,状如小猪奔窜,上下无常时。久治不愈,会使人喘逆,骨……(原文此处似有脱漏,接下文“邪。肾欲复还脾……”)。邪气……肾欲将邪气返还给脾,脾不肯接受,所以邪气留结成为积证。因此知道贲豚是在夏季丙丁日得之。这就是五积。
诊察脉象:脉紧者主积聚,脉浮而牢者主积聚,脉横者主胁下有积聚,脉来小沉实者主胃中有积聚,不下食,食入即吐出。脉来细软附骨者主积证。脉象显现于左手,积在左边;脉象显现于右手,积在右边;脉象两手均现,积在中央。根据部位……(原文此处似有脱漏,接下文“皮肤寒……”)。
(以下段落原文排版混乱,涉及五脏积证的脉症及色候,整理如下:)
若见皮肤寒冷,秋……(原文残缺)。脉沉而芤,时上下无常处,病见心悸、腹中热、面赤、咽干烦躁、掌中热,甚则唾血,主身抽搐,主血厥。夏季缓解,冬季加重,面色……(原文残缺)。
起见于外,腹满呕吐泄泻,肠鸣,四肢沉重,手足胫肿厥冷,不能卧,这是脾主肌肉受损的表现,面色黄。诊得肝积,脉弦而细,两胁下痛,邪气走窜心下,足胫寒冷,胁痛牵引少腹,男子患疝气,女子患淋证。身体无光泽,喜转筋,爪甲枯黑,春季缓解,秋季加重,面色青。诊得肾积,脉沉而急,苦于脊背与腰部相互牵引,饥饿时症状明显,饱食后减轻,病见腰痛,少腹里急,口干咽肿伤烂,目……(原文残缺),骨中寒冷,主髓厥,喜忘事,面色黑。诊得……(原文残缺)。
汤熨、针石,另有正方补养宣导之法,现在附在后面。养生方导引法说:用左脚踩在右脚上面,可消除心下的积聚。又说:患心下积聚,端正坐好支撑腰部,面向太阳仰头,慢慢用口吸气然后咽下,三十次后停止,睁开眼睛。又说:左侧胁部……(原文残缺)。举起右手极力伸展形体,可消除积证和陈旧瘀血。又说:闭口微呼吸,正坐面向王气(吉方),张开鼻孔吸气,迫使其置于脐下,小口微微呼出十二次通气,以消除结聚。低头憋气十二次,以消化饮食,使人身体轻便强健。在冬季练习,使人不畏寒冷。又说:端正坐好支撑腰部直立,展开双臂,仰起两手掌,用鼻……(原文残缺)。
又说:清晨去掉桃子(或指某种动作/物品,原文“去桃”疑有误或特指),正仰卧,伸开手臂和小腿,闭目闭口尽力屏息,张开腹部双脚,两次呼吸之间吸腹并仰起双脚加倍握拳。想要呼气时稍微平静,再重复。春季三次,夏季五次,秋季七次,冬季九次,可荡涤五脏,津润六腑,所患疾病皆愈。腹部有病积聚者,张腹吸气,热气消散即止,症瘕散破,即可痊愈。(出自……)

The origin of accumulation (Ji) and gathering (Ju) diseases lies in the disharmony of Yin and Yang, weakness of the Fu and Zang organs, invasion by wind pathogenic factors, and the contention between these pathogens and the Qi of the Fu and Zang organs. The Fu organs belong to Yang, while the Zang organs belong to Yin. Yang Qi is floating and active, whereas Yin Qi is sinking and still. Accumulation (Ji) arises from Yin Qi within the five Zang organs; it originates without leaving its specific location, so its movement up and down has limits. Gathering (Ju) is formed by Yang Qi within the six Fu organs; thus, it lacks a fixed root, moves freely up and down without stopping, and its pain has no constant location. When various organs are affected by pathogens, accumulation or gathering does not initially form; only when the pathogenic factors remain stagnant and do not depart do they become accumulation or gathering.
The accumulation of the Liver is named "Fei Qi" (Fat Qi). It is located under the left hypochondrium, resembling an inverted cup with a head and feet. If not cured for a long time, it causes malaria that persists for years. It is contracted on Wu-Ji days during the late summer. Why is this so? Lung disease should transmit to the Liver, and Liver disease should transmit to the Spleen. However, the Spleen is prosperous in late summer, and a prosperous organ does not accept pathogens. The Liver wishes to return the pathogen to the Lung, but... [text implies rejection or inability to accept].
The accumulation of the Heart is named "Fu Liang" (Hidden Beam). It starts above the umbilicus, as large as an arm, extending upward to below the heart. It is contracted on Geng-Xin days in autumn. Why is this so? Kidney disease should transmit to the Heart, and Heart disease should transmit to the Lung. However, the Lung is prosperous in autumn, and a prosperous organ does not accept pathogens. The Heart wishes to return the pathogen to the Kidney, but the Kidney refuses to accept it, causing the pathogen to stagnate and form an accumulation. Thus, it is known that Fu Liang is contracted on Geng-Xin days in autumn.
The accumulation of the Spleen is named "Pi Qi" (Stagnant Qi). It is located in the epigastrium, covering an area as large as a plate. If not cured for a long time, it causes flaccidity of the four limbs, jaundice, and prevents food from nourishing the muscles. It is contracted on Ren-Gui days in winter. Why is this so? Liver disease should transmit to the Spleen, and Spleen disease should transmit to the Kidney. However, the Kidney is prosperous in winter, and a prosperous organ does not accept pathogens. The Spleen wishes to return the pathogen to the Liver, but the Liver refuses to accept it, causing the pathogen to stagnate and form an accumulation. Thus, it is known that Pi Qi is contracted on Ren-Gui days in winter.
The accumulation of the Lung is named "Xi Ben" (Panting Burden). It is located under the right hypochondrium, covering an area as large as a cup. If not cured for a long time, it causes chills and fever, wheezing, coughing, and may lead to lung abscess. It is contracted on Jia-Yi days in spring. Why is this so? Heart disease should transmit to the Lung, and Lung disease should transmit to the Liver. However, the Liver is prosperous in spring, and a prosperous organ does not accept pathogens. The Lung wishes to return the pathogen to the Heart, but the Heart refuses to accept it, causing the pathogen to stagnate and form an accumulation. Thus, it is known that Xi Ben is contracted on Jia-Yi days in spring.
The accumulation of the Kidney is named "Ben Tun" (Rushing Pig). It originates in the lower abdomen and extends upward to below the heart, resembling the running motion of a pig, moving up and down at irregular times. If not cured for a long time, it causes wheezing and counterflow qi, coldness in the bones... [text incomplete]. The pathogen wishes to return to the Spleen, but the Spleen refuses to accept it, causing the pathogen to stagnate and form an accumulation. Thus, it is known that Ben Tun is contracted on Bing-Ding days in summer. These are the five accumulations.
Diagnosis via pulse: A tight pulse indicates accumulation; a floating and firm pulse indicates accumulation; a transverse pulse indicates accumulation under the hypochondrium; a small, deep, and solid pulse indicates accumulation in the stomach, where food is not accepted and vomited immediately after eating; a fine pulse adhering to the bone indicates accumulation. If the pulse manifests on the left, the accumulation is on the left; if on the right, the accumulation is on the right; if on both sides, the accumulation is in the center. [Text incomplete regarding location]. Cold skin... [Text incomplete]. Sinking and hollow pulse, moving up and down without fixed location, accompanied by palpitations, heat in the abdomen, red face, dry throat, irritability, heat in palms, and even hemoptysis, indicates convulsions and blood syncope. Symptoms improve in summer and worsen in winter... [Text incomplete]. Manifestations appear externally, abdominal fullness, vomiting, diarrhea, borborygmus, heavy limbs, edema and coldness of hands and feet, inability to lie down, indicating damage to muscles and yellow complexion. Diagnosis of Liver accumulation: wiry and fine pulse, pain in both hypochondria, pathogen moving to the epigastrium, coldness of shanks, hypochondriac pain radiating to the lower abdomen, hernia in men, strangury in women, lack of luster in the body, tendency to muscle cramps, dry and black nails, improvement in spring and worsening in autumn, blue complexion. Diagnosis of Kidney accumulation: sinking and rapid pulse, pain connecting the spine and waist, symptoms appearing when hungry and subsiding when full, low back pain, urgency in the lower abdomen, dry mouth, swollen and ulcerated throat, eye issues... [Text incomplete], coldness in bones, marrow syncope, forgetfulness, black complexion. Diagnosis of... [Text incomplete].
Moxibustion, hot compresses, acupuncture, and stone therapy have other specific formulas for nourishment and guidance, which are attached below. The health preservation method states: Place the left foot on top of the right foot to eliminate accumulation under the heart. Also: For accumulation under the heart, sit upright supporting the waist, face the sun and look up, slowly inhale through the mouth and swallow, repeat thirty times then stop. Open eyes. Also: Raise the right hand to the extreme left side to eliminate accumulation and old blood. Also: Close the mouth and breathe slightly, sit upright facing the prevailing Qi, open nostrils to inhale, direct the Qi to below the navel, exhale slightly through small openings twelve times to eliminate stagnation. Lower head and hold breath twelve times to digest food, making the body light and strong. Practicing in winter prevents cold. Also: Sit upright supporting the waist straight up, extend arms, raise palms, inhale through nose... [Text incomplete]. Also: In the morning, lie supine without peach wood, extend arms and legs, close eyes and mouth and hold breath to the limit, expand abdomen and feet, inhale into abdomen and raise feet double-fisted between two breaths, relax slightly before exhaling. Repeat: three times in spring, five in summer, seven in autumn, nine in winter, cleansing the five Zang organs, moistening the six Fu organs, curing all diseases. For abdominal accumulation, inflate the abdomen by inhaling until heat dissipates, breaking the mass, leading to cure. (From Fan Wang's Po Ji Wan formula for treating hard accumulations.)
