体内蕴藏热毒兼感寒邪的，用解散法治疗。因过度劳累而患病的，用补益法治疗。
因性生活不节或强行固摄精气导致败坏结聚的，用解散法治疗。
因湿热引起的，清利肝经湿热并引导湿气下行。
有一人患此病尚未成脓，小便短少涩痛，服用八正散三剂后症状稍减，再服用小柴胡汤加泽泻、山栀、木通，两剂后消散。（这是根据症状辨证施治。）
一位老妇人患处肿痛，脓未形成，小便滞涩，肝脉数疾，服用加减龙胆泻肝汤加山栀、黄柏，四剂后消散。（这是根据病因辨证施治。）
一人患处肿痛并伴有恶寒发热，服用荆防败毒散两剂后寒热止，再服用双解散两剂后肿块消散。（这是根据寒热症状判断为外邪所致而施治。）
一人患处未成大脓但疼痛剧烈，服用消毒托里内疏类药物无效，脉象洪大，说明毒邪仍在，服用仙方活命饮一剂后疼痛停止，再服两剂后消散。（这是根据治疗无效的情况调整处方。）
一人患处肿痛，傍晚发热，服用小柴胡汤加青皮、天花粉四剂，疼痛停止，热退，再服用神效栝蒌散四剂后消散。（这是根据症状辨证施治。）
一人患处肿胀作痛，大小便不通，脉象有力，服用玉烛散两剂后症状顿减，再服用龙胆泻肝汤四剂后消散。（这是根据症状和脉象综合施治。）
一人溃破后疼痛不止，各种药物无效，诊察其脉象大而按之则数，这是毒邪未解，服用仙方活命饮后疼痛停止，再服两剂后消散。（这是根据症状和脉象综合施治。）
一人溃破后疼痛不止，服用小柴胡汤加黄柏、知母、川芎、当归四剂后疼痛稍止，再服用托里当归汤数剂后疮口收敛。（这是根据症状辨证施治。）
一人服用攻伐药物以求内部消散，导致腹泻、食欲减退，先服用二神丸止住腹泻，再服用十全大补汤加倍白术、茯苓，数剂后消散。（这是根据症状辨证施治。）
大抵这类病症多发生于过度劳累的人，也有因体内蕴藏热毒而生的。必须辨别虚实以及脓是否形成，不可乱投药物。治疗此类疾病一概使用大黄等泻下药，以求内部消散，或者让脓液从大便排出，很少见到痊愈的。人们大多希望内部消散，恐怕难以收功。如果补养气血，不到十天就能愈合。既然脓已经形成，哪里还有消散的道理？再用攻伐的药物，反而……
一人不慎房劳，患此病出现肿痛，服用双解散两服，病情即止，再服用补中益气汤数剂后脓成针刺排脓，随后服用八珍汤加五味子、麦冬、柴胡三十余剂。（这是根据症状辨证施治。）
大抵便痈就是血疝，俗称便毒，是因为发生在隐蔽部位而得名。它涉及足厥阴肝经及冲任督脉，是肝的旁络，也是气血流通的道路。现在壅滞而肿痛，这是热毒所致，应当先疏导其滞塞，再用托里透脓的药物，这是临症制宜的原则。
一人年过四十，患便毒时攻伐太过，饮食减少思食，大便不成形，遗精，脉微。李东垣说：精滑不禁，大便自利，腰脚沉重，属于下虚。张仲景说：微弱之脉，主气血俱虚。先服用六君子汤加破故纸、肉豆蔻煎服，泄止食进，再服用十全大补汤加行气活血药十余剂后消散。（这是根据脉象虚弱施治。）
一人患便毒，脓稀脉弱，服用十全大补汤加五味子、麦冬、白蔹三十剂后稍好，再服用参归类药物调理而平复。因新婚复发，聚肿坚硬，四肢冷，脉弱皮寒，饮食减少思食，这是极度虚弱。仍用前药加桂枝、附子，三剂后稍可。患者想要速愈，自行服用连翘消毒散，导致腹泻不止而死。（这是根据症状和脉象施治。）
一人年过四十，平时劳苦，患便毒并发寒热，先服用小柴胡汤加青皮一服，表证全部消退，接着服用补中益气汤加穿山甲两剂，肿块消退三四成，再服用托里药物五六服，脓成刺破排出，十天伤口愈合。（这是根据症状辨证施治。）
夫便毒属足厥阴湿气，因劳倦而发。可用射干三寸同生姜煎煮，饭前服用，得利一二行即有效。射干以紫花者为佳，红花者非正品。又一方：破故纸、牛蒡子（微炒）、牵牛（炒）、大黄（酒拌煨）等分研末，每服一两，酒调下。
又一方：已成脓者，用大黄、连翘（各五钱），枳实（三钱），浓朴、甘草节（各二钱），桃仁（二十一粒），姜三片，分三次贴，煎服。
消毒饮：便毒初发，三四日内可消散。
组成：皂角刺、金银花、防风、当归、大黄、甘草节、栝楼。
用法：水酒各半煎，食前温服。同时频繁提拉顶部头发，立效。
又一方：木鳖子、大黄、栝楼、桃仁、草龙胆切碎，浓煎，露置一夜，清晨温服，立愈。
又一方：山栀、大黄、乳香、没药、当归（各半钱），栝楼仁（二钱），代赭石（一钱）。以上为一服量，煎服。
一人肿而不溃，用人参、[缺字]、当归、白术、白芷、皂角针、柴胡、甘草节数剂后溃破，再服用八珍汤加柴胡数剂后痊愈。（这是根据症状辨证施治。）
一人溃破后肿不消且不收敛，诊察其脉浮而涩，用豆豉灸法（第四十三穴），再服用十全大补汤月余后痊愈。（这是根据症状辨证施治。）
Those with internal accumulation of heat-toxin and cold-pathogen should be treated with dispersing methods. Those suffering from overwork should be treated with tonification.
Those resulting from improper sexual activity or forced retention of essence leading to deterioration and nodulation should be treated with dispersing methods.
Those caused by damp-heat should be treated by clearing the Liver and guiding out dampness.
A patient presented with this condition without suppuration, accompanied by scanty and difficult urination. After three doses of Bazheng San (Eight-Normal Decoction), symptoms slightly improved; subsequently, after two doses of Xiaochaihu Tang (Minor Bupleurum Decoction) added with Ze Xie (Alisma Rhizome), Shan Zhi (Gardenia Fruit), and Mu Tong (Akebia Caulis), the swelling resolved. (This treatment was based on symptoms.)
An elderly woman presented with painful swelling without suppuration, stagnant urination, and a rapid Liver pulse. After four doses of Ji Jian Long Dan Xie Gan Tang (Modified Gentian Liver-Draining Decoction) added with Shan Zhi (Gardenia Fruit) and Huang Bo (Phellodendron Bark), the swelling resolved. (This treatment was based on etiology.)
A patient presented with painful swelling accompanied by aversion to cold and fever. After two doses of Jing Fang Bai Du San (Schizonepeta and Saposhnikovia Decoction for Resolving Toxins), the chills and fever ceased; subsequently, after two doses of Shuang Jie San (Double-Resolving Powder), the mass resolved. (This treatment identified external pathogens based on chills and fever.)
A patient presented with severe pain before significant pus formation. Previous treatments with detoxifying, supporting interior, and purgative herbs were ineffective. The pulse was surging and large, indicating the toxin remained. After one dose of Xian Fang Huo Ming Yin (Immortal Life-Giving Elixir), the pain stopped; after another two doses, it resolved. (This adjustment was made due to previous treatment failure.)
A patient presented with painful swelling and afternoon fever. After four doses of Xiaochaihu Tang (Minor Bupleurum Decoction) added with Qing Pi (Tangerine Peel) and Tian Hua Fen (Trichosanthes Root), the pain stopped and fever subsided. Subsequently, after four doses of Shen Xiao Gua Lou San (Miraculous Trichosanthes Powder), it resolved. (This treatment was based on symptoms.)
A patient presented with swelling and pain, constipation of both stool and urine, and a forceful pulse. After two doses of Yu Zhu San (Jade Candle Powder), symptoms receded abruptly; subsequently, after four doses of Long Dan Xie Gan Tang (Gentian Liver-Draining Decoction), it resolved. (This treatment was based on both symptoms and pulse.)
A patient presented with persistent pain after ulceration, unresponsive to various medications. The pulse was large but rapid upon deep pressure, indicating unresolved toxin. After Xian Fang Huo Ming Yin (Immortal Life-Giving Elixir), the pain stopped; after another two doses, it resolved. (This treatment was based on both symptoms and pulse.)
A patient presented with persistent pain after ulceration. After four doses of Xiaochaihu Tang (Minor Bupleurum Decoction) added with Huang Bo (Phellodendron Bark), Zhi Mu (Anemarrhena Rhizome), Chuan Xiong (Szechwan Lovage Rhizome), and Dang Gui (Angelica Sinensis), the pain slightly subsided. Subsequently, after several doses of Tuo Li Dang Gui Tang (Support-Interior Angelica Decoction), the wound closed. (This treatment was based on symptoms.)
A patient took harsh purgatives seeking internal resolution, resulting in diarrhea and poor appetite. Er Shen Wan (Two-Spirit Pill) was first used to stop the diarrhea, followed by Shi Quan Da Bu Tang (Comprehensive Great Tonifying Decoction) with doubled Bai Zhu (Atractylodes Macrocephala Rhizome) and Fu Ling (Poria), which resolved the condition after several doses. (This treatment was based on symptoms.)
Generally, this condition often affects those who are overworked. It may also arise from internal heat-toxin accumulation. One must distinguish between deficiency and excess, and whether pus has formed, avoiding arbitrary medication. Treating this generally with Da Huang (Rhubarb Rhizome) to purge internally, hoping for resolution, or allowing pus to exit via stool, rarely leads to recovery. People often desire internal resolution, fearing difficulty in healing. However, if Qi and Blood are tonified, healing occurs within ten days. Once pus is formed, there is no rationale for its resolution; using harsh purgatives instead...
A patient contracted this painful swelling due to imprudent sexual activity. After two doses of Shuang Jie San (Double-Resolving Powder), the disease halted. Subsequently, after several doses of Bu Zhong Yi Qi Tang (Tonify the Middle and Augment the Qi Decoction), pus formed and was lanced. Finally, after thirty-plus doses of Ba Zhen Tang (Eight-Treasure Decoction) added with Wu Wei Zi (Schisandra Berry), Mai Men Dong (Ophiopogon Tuber), and Chai Hu (Bupleurum Root), he recovered. (This treatment was based on symptoms.)
Generally, Bian Yong (Perineal Abscess) is a type of Xue Shan (Blood Hernia), commonly called Bian Du (Perineal Poison), named so because it occurs in an inconspicuous area. It involves the Foot-Jueyin Liver Meridian and the Chong, Ren, and Du vessels, serving as collateral pathways for the Liver and channels for Qi and Blood circulation. Now, obstruction causes swelling and pain, attributed to heat-toxin. One should first guide out stagnation, then use formulas that support the interior and promote pus discharge. This is adapting treatment to clinical presentation.
A patient over forty suffered excessive purging for perineal abscess, leading to poor appetite, loose stools, spermatorrhea, and a faint pulse. Li Dongyuan stated: Involuntary seminal emission, spontaneous diarrhea, heavy waist and legs indicate lower deficiency. Zhang Zhongjing stated: A faint pulse indicates deficiency of both Qi and Blood. First, Liu Jun Zi Tang (Six-Gentlemen Decoction) added with Po Gu Zhi (Psoralea Fruit) and Rou Dou Kou (Nutmeg) was decocted and taken; once diarrhea stopped and appetite returned, Shi Quan Da Bu Tang (Comprehensive Great Tonifying Decoction) added with blood-moving herbs was taken for over ten doses, resolving the condition. (This treatment was based on a deficient pulse.)
A patient with perineal abscess had thin pus and a weak pulse. After thirty doses of Shi Quan Da Bu Tang (Comprehensive Great Tonifying Decoction) added with Wu Wei Zi (Schisandra Berry), Mai Men Dong (Ophiopogon Tuber), and Bai Lian (Meadow Rue Rhizome), he slightly improved. He was further stabilized with Shen Gui (Ginseng and Angelica) preparations. Due to a new marriage, the condition relapsed with hard, clustered swelling, cold limbs, weak pulse, cold skin, and poor appetite, indicating extreme deficiency. The previous formula was used again with Gui Zhi (Cinnamon Twig) and Fu Zi (Prepared Aconite Root); after three doses, he felt somewhat better. Desiring quick recovery, he self-administered Lian Qiao Xiao Du San (Forsythia Detoxifying Powder), leading to incessant diarrhea and death. (This treatment was based on symptoms and pulse.)
A patient over forty, accustomed to hard labor, developed perineal abscess with chills and fever. First, Xiaochaihu Tang (Minor Bupleurum Decoction) added with Qing Pi (Tangerine Peel) was taken once, resolving all exterior symptoms. Next, Bu Zhong Yi Qi Tang (Tonify the Middle and Augment the Qi Decoction) added with Chuan Shan Jia (Pangolin Scale) was taken for two doses, reducing swelling by three to four parts. Subsequently, five to six doses of interior-supporting herbs allowed pus formation and drainage, with healing within ten days. (This treatment was based on symptoms.)
Perineal abscess relates to dampness in the Foot-Jueyin meridian, triggered by fatigue. One may decoct She Gan (Belamcanda Rhizome, 3 cun) with fresh ginger and take it before meals; obtaining one or two bowel movements yields efficacy. Use purple-flowered She Gan; red-flowered varieties are incorrect. Another prescription: Po Gu Zhi (Psoralea Fruit), Niu Bang Zi (Arctium Fruit, lightly fried), Qian Niu (Morning Glory Seed, fried), and Da Huang (Rhubarb Rhizome, wine-treated and baked) in equal parts, powdered. Take one liang mixed with wine.
Another prescription for established pus: Da Huang (Rhubarb Rhizome) and Lian Qiao (Forsythia Fruit) (each 5 qian), Zhi Shi (Immature Bitter Orange) (3 qian), Hou Po (Magnolia Bark) and Gan Cao Jie (Licorice Knots) (each 2 qian), Tao Ren (Peach Kernel) (21 grains), and 3 slices of ginger. Divide into three portions, decoct, and take.
Xiao Du Yin (Detoxifying Drink): For early-stage perineal abscess, can resolve within three to four days.
Ingredients: Zao Jiao Ci (Gleditsia Spine), Jin Yin Hua (Honeysuckle Flower), Fang Feng (Saposhnikovia Root), Dang Gui (Angelica Sinensis), Da Huang (Rhubarb Rhizome), Gan Cao Jie (Licorice Knots), Gua Lou (Trichosanthes Fruit).
Method: Decoct with half water and half wine, take warm before meals. Simultaneously, frequently pull the hair at the vertex for immediate effect.
Another prescription: Bai Jiang Can (Bombyx Batryticatus) and Huai Hua (Sophora Flower) powdered, taken with wine. Another variant adds Jiu Da Huang (Wine-processed Rhubarb).
Another prescription: Mu Bie Zi (Momordica Seed), Da Huang (Rhubarb Rhizome), Gua Lou (Trichosanthes Fruit), Tao Ren (Peach Kernel), Cao Long Dan (Gentiana Scabra Root) chopped, heavily decocted, exposed overnight, taken warm in the morning for immediate cure.
Another prescription: Shan Zhi (Gardenia Fruit), Da Huang (Rhubarb Rhizome), Ru Xiang (Frankincense), Mo Yao (Myrrh), Dang Gui (Angelica Sinensis) (each half qian), Gua Lou Ren (Trichosanthes Seed) (2 qian), Dai Zhe Shi (Hematite) (1 qian). Prepare as one dose, decoct, and take.
A patient with swelling but no ulceration was treated with Ren Shen (Ginseng), [missing character], Dang Gui (Angelica Sinensis), Bai Zhu (Atractylodes Macrocephala Rhizome), Bai Zhi (Angelica Dahurica Root), Zao Jiao Zhen (Gleditsia Needle), Chai Hu (Bupleurum Root), and Gan Cao Jie (Licorice Knots) for several doses until ulceration occurred. Then, Ba Zhen Tang (Eight-Treasure Decoction) added with Chai Hu (Bupleurum Root) was taken for several doses to heal. (This treatment was based on symptoms.)
A patient with ulceration had persistent swelling and non-healing. The pulse was floating and choppy. Dou Chi Moxibustion (Acupoint 43) was applied, followed by Shi Quan Da Bu Tang (Comprehensive Great Tonifying Decoction) for over a month until recovery. (This treatment was based on symptoms.)
