仲阳云∶疮疹候，面燥腮赤，目胞亦赤，呵欠顿闷，乍凉乍热，咳嗽嚏喷，手足梢冷，夜卧惊悸，多睡烦躁，发热
脸赤，唇红身痛，头疼痰涎，伤寒证候类有之，并疮疹证，此天行时气之病也。始发之时，因伤风伤寒而得者，有因时
气染易而得者，有因伤食呕吐而得者，有因跌蹼惊怒蓄血而得者。或又为窜眼禁牙，惊搐如风之证，或为口舌咽喉，腹
肚疼痛之状，或为烦躁发热，脸赤狂闷，昏睡谵语之形，或自汗，或下利，或发热，或不发热，症候多端，卒未易辨。
方论所载，以耳冷、 冷、足冷验之，盖谓疮疹属阳，肾脏无证，耳与 、足、俱属于肾，故肾之所部独冷。就疑似之
间，或中或否，不若视其耳后有红脉赤缕者为真，于此可以稽验矣。其脉洪大而弦数，诊脉之际，身略战动，是其证也。
调护之法，首尾俱不可汗下，但温凉之剂，兼而济之，解毒和中安表而已。凡热不可骤遏，但轻解之，若无热则疮又不
能发也。虚者益之，实者损之，冷者温之，热者平之，是为权度。借喻而言，亦如 人笼蒸之法，但欲为松耳。如苟妄
汗，则荣卫既开，转增疮烂；如苟妄下，则正气内脱，变而归肾，身体振寒，耳 反热，眼合肚胀，其疮黑坏，十无一
生。（舌黑者尤难疗）何者？疮随五脏见证，未发则五脏之证悉具，已发则归于一脏，受毒多者见之。故肝脏水 。（泪
出如水，小而 青），肺脏脓 ，（其涕稠浊，色白而大），心脏发斑（血 色赤而小），脾脏发疹（色黄微赤，有小斑疮），
惟归肾则变黑焉（青紫干陷）。疮疹属阳，本无肾症（肾在腑之下，不受秽毒，故无症）。阳取火也，肾取水也，以火用
事，为水所制，岂不殆哉。朱氏云∶疮疹已发未发，但不可疏转，此为大戒，疮疹首尾，皆不可下，及辄用利药，毒瓦斯
入里即杀人。以此观之，疮疹症状，虽与伤寒相似，而疹痘治法，实与伤寒不同。伤寒所传，从表入里，痘疹所发，从
里出表，盖毒根于里、若下之，内气一虚，毒不能出而反入焉，由是土不能胜水，黑陷者有之；毒发于表，若汗之，则
荣卫一虚，重令开泄，转增疮烂，由是风邪乘虚，变症者有之。汗下二说，古人之所深戒也。调解之法将如何？曰∶活
血调气，安表和中，轻清消毒，温凉之剂二者得兼而已，温如黄 、当归、木香辈，凉如前胡、干葛、升麻辈，佐之以
川芎、芍药、枳壳、桔梗、羌活、木通、紫草、甘草之属，则可以调适矣。凡小儿觉身热，症似伤寒，但未经疮痘，疑
似未明，且与惺惺散、抱龙丸、升苏散；热甚则先与升麻汤，或加川芎、紫苏、茯苓；呕吐者香苏饮加半夏、茯苓、白
芍药；泄泻者，香苏饮加白术、茯苓；吐泻胃虚者、陈氏木香散；渴者，升麻汤加紫苏、茯苓；发搐及谵语热甚者，至
宝丹、抱龙丸和服。疮疹未出透者可服，如出已透肤者不可服也。或用防风天麻丸亦可。如一、二日疹出，红点如麻子，
大小不一等者轻，一齐并出，密甚者重，并服四圣散；及泄泻者、紫草木香汤，或四君子汤加木香、丁香；如冷战出不
透者，加官桂；有惊热出透者，快斑散治之，内有蝉蜕者也。三、四日疮疹出不透者，四圣散；皮肤冷者，加木香、肉
桂，更须活血散，温酒紫草汤调下，以助药力，则出快；如欲止痛，用温热水调下；如紫色黑陷内热者，大便秘者，用
龙胆膏，猪心血、辰砂、脑子研细末，木香汤调下可也，或用猪尾膏亦可，如内无大热，不可轻服也。常用胡荽酒喷帏
帐及身上为佳，不可喷面上以辟恶气耳。又烧苍术，降真香亦佳。五六日痘疮 甚，但服芍药甘草汤定痛，多服不妨，
却服甘露饮数服，或口内有脓疮，咽喉肿痛，不能乳食者，并皆治之。七八日疮 透，略烂，方可服地黄汤；大便秘者、
可服消毒饮。凡痘根窠红活，光泽明净者轻；如损陷稠密，灰白色，泻渴者重。无热者，可服四物汤，用麦门门、防风、
蝉蜕等剂。九日十日有热甚，可服犀角地黄汤、消毒饮，便利者不可服；小便不通者，大连翘汤加减服，以小便利为度，
导赤散、羌活散、皆可服；热甚者、小柴胡汤，渴甚者、白虎汤；大便秘甚数日不通者，宣风散一服便可，间服前药；
痘疮长足肥满苍腊色者轻，寒战闷乱腹胀，烦渴喘急切牙者重。十一日十二日，痘疮当靥，疮痂欲落而欲愈也；若痘疮
欲靥之间，或不能靥，或腹胀烦渴，或泄泻气促者，不可与蜜水瓜果等冷物，食之即死；当与木香散，异功散，加减服
之。凡小儿先发搐、而后发疮者也，如疮已瘥、而后发搐，或吐或泻者死；先发热而后出疮者存，疮已发而后泄不止
者亡。疮瘥而忽泻脓血痂皮者顺腹中有疮生，泻血而水谷不消者逆（脾胃虚也），或泻血而疮坏无脓者亦不可救（胃
烂
也）。要知阳明主肌肉，胃气不可一日不强也。凡出疮疹，先须护眼，或用辰砂、或用胭脂，以涂眼眶，内有红花以活
血尤妙。如痘疮入眼，宜与决明散、紫贝散；疮痂欲落不落，则用酥油或白蜜时时润之，可揭则揭去；若失润揭迟，痂
才硬则成瘢痕，仍用灭瘢药敷之。切不可与鸡鸭卵与食，食则实时目盲，瞳子如卵白色，其应如神；亦不可再食猪肉，
不可不戒也。中间钱氏有百祥丸下之，及有用人牙齿之药、切不可轻服，甚以为戒也，不若用独圣散与牛李膏为愈。或
痘疹已发，为风冷所伤，荣卫不和，或为宿食所伤，内气壅遏，以致冰硬者，调解散主之。如泻不止，用参苓白术散加
木香可也，四君子汤加木香、豆蔻亦妙。虽然疮黑本为恶症，治之有方。犹有幸而生者。至于调卫之际，乳母不能禁口，
流毒于儿；或粥食乳哺不时，使之饥虚；或衣被不周，致伤风冷；以至闺房有触，外邪有犯，则以冰硬变坏而归肾，自
我致寇，又谁咎耶！能调卫者，以温散汤剂，酿乳饮之，谨护风寒，使之气体通和；其于粥饵，则勿令饱而气实，饥而
气虚，斯为得矣。然疮曰圣疮，七日热而发，七日 而干，又七日平复如旧矣。若实实虚虚，损不足而益有余，则疮出
甚难；如调顺血气，温和脾胃，均平冷热，则疮出甚易。调解之法，无逾于此，故备论之。疹症初感，未出而发热者，
扁鹊油剂法治之，则出疹甚稀，或即消解而疮疹不发者有之，自然解散，而安泰必矣。

安斑散 调理疮疹。
鲁伯嗣说：疮疹的征兆，表现为面部干燥、两腮发红，眼睑也红，打哈欠且神情呆滞，忽冷忽热，咳嗽打喷嚏，手脚指尖发凉，夜间睡眠惊悸，嗜睡但烦躁，发热时脸红，嘴唇红润但身体疼痛，头痛且有痰涎。这些症状与伤寒证候相似，但实际上属于天行时气（流行性传染病）的疾病。其发病初期，有的是因伤风或伤寒引起，有的是因时气传染所致，有的是因饮食停滞、呕吐引起，有的是因跌扑惊吓、怒气导致瘀血内停而引发。
此外，还可能出现邪毒窜入眼睛、牙龈紧闭、惊厥抽搐如中风之状；或出现口舌咽喉、腹部肚脐疼痛的情况；或表现为烦躁发热、脸红狂躁闷乱、昏睡说胡话的神态；或者自汗，或者腹泻，或者发热，或者不发热。症状多种多样，短时间内难以辨别。
古代医书方论中记载，通过检查耳朵、项后及足部是否寒冷来验证病情。这是因为疮疹属阳证，肾脏本身没有直接受邪的症状，而耳朵、项后（翳风穴附近）、足部都归属于肾经，所以唯独肾脏所主的部位感觉寒冷。在疑似难辨的情况下，有时准确有时不准，不如观察耳后是否有红色脉络和血丝，若有则是真疮疹，借此可以验证。其脉象洪大且弦数，诊脉时患者身体略微颤抖，这就是疮疹的征象。
调护治疗的方法，从头到尾都不可以使用发汗或攻下的方法，只需用温凉适度的药剂，兼顾解毒、调和脾胃、安固表卫即可。凡是发热不可强行遏制，只需轻微疏解，如果没有热量散发，疮疹就不能透发出来。虚弱的要补益，实证的要削减，寒证要温治，热证要平抑，这是权衡治疗的准则。打个比方，就像用蒸笼蒸东西一样，关键在于保持疏松透气。如果妄用发汗法，会导致营卫之气外泄，反而增加疮疡溃烂；如果妄用攻下法，会导致正气内脱，病邪归并于肾，出现身体战栗恶寒、耳朵和项后反而发热、眼睛闭合、腹胀，疮色变黑坏死，十有八九无法存活。（若舌苔发黑者更难治疗）。为什么呢？因为疮疹随五脏见证，未发出时五脏的症状都具备，发出后则归于某一脏，受毒邪较多的一脏会显现出明显症状。所以肝脏受毒表现为水样泪液（流泪如水，眼泪小而青），肺脏受毒表现为脓涕（鼻涕稠浊，颜色白且量大），心脏受毒表现为发斑（血色赤红且点小），脾脏受毒表现为发疹（颜色黄微红，有小斑疮），只有归于肾脏则变为黑色（青紫干枯凹陷）。疮疹属阳，本无肾症（因为肾位于腑之下，不受秽毒，所以无典型症状）。阳对应火，肾对应水，当火气旺盛时，被水气克制，这难道不是危险吗？
朱氏说：疮疹无论发出与否，都不可使用疏通泻下的药物，这是最大的禁忌。疮疹从头到尾都不可攻下，以及随意使用利药，毒气一旦入里就会杀人。由此看来，疮疹症状虽然与伤寒相似，但疹痘的治疗方法，实际上与伤寒不同。伤寒的病邪传变是从表入里，痘疹的发作是从里出表。因为毒根在于体内，如果攻下，内气一虚，毒不能外出反而内陷，导致土不能胜水，出现黑陷的情况；毒发于体表，如果发汗，则营卫一虚，再次令毛孔开泄，反而增加疮疡溃烂，导致风邪乘虚而入，产生变症。发汗和攻下这两种说法，是古人深深告诫的。调解的方法将如何呢？回答说：活血调气，安固表卫，调和脾胃，使用轻清消毒、兼具温凉性质的药剂。温性的如黄芪、当归、木香之类，凉性的如前胡、干葛、升麻之类，辅以川芎、芍药、枳壳、桔梗、羌活、木通、紫草、甘草等药物，就可以调理得当。
凡是小儿觉得身体发热，症状像伤寒，但尚未见疮痘，怀疑不明确时，先给予惺惺散、抱龙丸、升苏散；如果热势很重，先给升麻汤，或者加川芎、紫苏、茯苓；呕吐的用香苏饮加半夏、茯苓、白芍药；腹泻的用香苏饮加白术、茯苓；吐泻且胃虚的用陈氏木香散；口渴的用升麻汤加紫苏、茯苓；发生抽搐及说胡话热势重的，服用至宝丹、抱龙丸并服。疮疹未出透的可以服用，如果已经出透皮肤则不可服用。或者使用防风天麻丸也可以。如果一两天疹子出来，红点像麻子，大小不一的较轻，一齐出来且密集的较重，都服用四圣散；如果有腹泻的，用紫草木香汤，或者四君子汤加木香、丁香；如果有寒战但疹出不透的，加官桂；有惊热且出透的，用快斑散治疗，里面含有蝉蜕。三、四天疮疹出不透的，用四圣散；皮肤冷的，加木香、肉桂，还需要配合活血散，用温酒送服紫草汤，以助药力，则出得快；如果想要止痛，用温热水送服；如果紫色黑陷且内热的，大便秘结的，用龙胆膏，猪心血、辰砂、脑子研成细末，木香汤调下即可，或者用猪尾膏也可以，如果内无大热，不可轻易服用。常用胡荽酒喷洒帷帐及身上为好，不可喷在脸上以辟除恶气。另外烧苍术、降真香也很好。五、六天痘疮很痛，只服用芍药甘草汤定痛，多服不妨，再服用甘露饮几服；或者口内有脓疮，咽喉肿痛，不能吃奶进食的，都予以治疗。七、八天疮透，稍微有点溃烂，才可以服用地黄汤；大便秘结的，可服用消毒饮。凡是痘根红活，光泽明净的较轻；如果破损凹陷稠密，灰白色，腹泻口渴的重。没有发热的，可服用四物汤，用麦门冬、防风、蝉蜕等剂。九日十日如果热势很重，可服用犀角地黄汤、消毒饮，大小便通畅的不可服；小便不通的，大连翘汤加减服用，以小便通利为度，导赤散、羌活散都可以服用；热势重的用小柴胡汤，口渴严重的用白虎汤；大便秘结严重几天不通的，宣风散一服即可，间服前面的药；痘疮长足肥满呈苍腊色的较轻，寒战闷乱腹胀，烦渴喘急咬牙的重。十一日十二日，痘疮应当结痂，疮痂欲落而将要痊愈；如果痘疮欲结痂之间，或者不能结痂，或者腹胀烦渴，或者腹泻气促的，不可给蜜水瓜果等冷物，吃了就会死；应当给予木香散，异功散，加减服用。凡是小儿先发抽搐、而后发疮的，如果疮已好、而后又发抽搐，或者呕吐或者腹泻的会死；先发热而后出疮的能存活，疮已发而后腹泻不止的会亡。疮好后忽然泻出脓血痂皮的是顺证，腹中有疮生，泻血而水谷不消化的是逆证（脾胃虚也），或者泻血而疮坏无脓的也不可救（胃烂也）。要知道阳明主肌肉，胃气不可一日不强盛。凡是出疮疹，先须保护眼睛，或者用辰砂，或者用胭脂，涂抹眼眶，内有红花以活血尤其妙。如果痘疮入眼，宜给决明散、紫贝散；疮痂欲落不落，则用酥油或白蜜时时润湿，可以揭去的就揭去；如果失于润湿揭迟，痂才硬则形成瘢痕，仍用灭瘢药敷之。切不可给鸡鸭卵吃，吃了立刻目盲，瞳仁如蛋清白色，应验如神；也不可再吃猪肉，不可不戒除。中间钱乙有用百祥丸攻下的，以及有人牙的药，切不可轻服，非常引以为戒，不如用独圣散与牛李膏更好。或者痘疹已发，被风冷所伤，营卫不和，或者被宿食所伤，内气壅遏，以致冰硬者，用调解散主治。如果腹泻不止，用参苓白术散加木香即可，四君子汤加木香、豆蔻也很好。虽然疮黑本是恶症，但有治疗方法。还有幸能存活的。至于调护之际，乳母不能忌口，流毒给孩子；或者粥食乳哺不时，使其饥饿虚弱；或者衣被不周，导致伤风受冷；以至闺房触犯，外邪侵犯，则以冰硬变坏而归肾，是自己招致祸患，又能怪谁呢！能调护的人，用温散汤剂，酿乳饮之，谨护风寒，使气体通和；对于粥食，则不要让它饱而气实，饥而气虚，这就对了。然而疮称为“圣疮”，七日热而发，七日干而结，又七日平复如旧。如果实实虚虚，损不足而益有余，则疮出很难；如果调顺血气，温和脾胃，均平冷热，则疮出很容易。调解的方法，没有超过这个的，所以详细论述。疹症初感，未出而发热者，用扁鹊油剂法治之，则出疹很少，或者即消解而疮疹不发者有之，自然解散，而安泰必矣。

Lu Bosi states: The signs of chuangzhen (smallpox/rubella-like eruptions) include a dry face, red cheeks, and red eyelids; yawning with a dull expression; alternating sensations of cold and heat; coughing and sneezing; coldness in the fingertips of the hands and feet; restlessness and palpitations during sleep at night; excessive sleepiness accompanied by irritability; fever with facial redness, red lips, body pain, headache, and phlegm-saliva. These symptoms resemble those of Shanghan (Cold Damage syndrome), but they actually belong to Tianxing Shiqi (epidemic infectious diseases). At the onset, the condition may arise from Wind-Cold or Cold Damage pathogens, from epidemic Qi transmission, from food stagnation and vomiting, or from blood stasis caused by falls, fright, or anger.
Furthermore, it may present as toxin invading the eyes, locked jaw, convulsions resembling wind-stroke; or pain in the mouth, tongue, throat, abdomen, and umbilicus; or irritability, fever, facial redness, mania, stuffiness, lethargy, and delirious speech; or spontaneous sweating, diarrhea, fever, or absence of fever. The manifestations are diverse and difficult to distinguish quickly.
Ancient medical texts describe verifying the condition by checking if the ears, the area behind the ears (Yifeng region), and the feet are cold. This is because chuangzhen belongs to Yang syndromes, and the Kidney itself does not show direct pathogenic signs. Since the ears, the area behind the ears, and the feet are governed by the Kidney meridian, only these areas governed by the Kidney feel cold. In cases of doubt, this method is sometimes accurate and sometimes not. It is better to observe whether there are red meridians and red threads behind the ears; if present, it confirms true chuangzhen, allowing for verification. The pulse is typically surging (Hong), large, wiry (Xian), and rapid (Shu). During pulse diagnosis, the patient's body may tremble slightly, which is a sign of the disease.
The method of care and treatment dictates that neither diaphoresis (sweating) nor purgation (downward draining) should be used from beginning to end. Instead, one should use agents of moderate warmth and coolness, combining detoxification, harmonization of the Spleen and Stomach, and stabilization of the Exterior. Fever should not be abruptly suppressed; rather, it should be gently resolved. Without heat release, the eruption cannot emerge. For deficiency, tonify; for excess, reduce; for cold, warm; for heat, cool. This is the principle of balance. Metaphorically, it is like steaming in a bamboo basket: the key is to keep it loose and breathable. If one recklessly uses diaphoresis, Ying and Wei Qi will leak out, worsening ulceration. If one recklessly uses purgation, Zheng Qi (Upright Qi) will collapse internally, causing the pathogen to retreat to the Kidney, resulting in shivering and aversion to cold, heat in the ears and neck, closed eyes, abdominal distension, blackening and necrosis of the lesions, with a mortality rate of nearly ten out of ten. (If the tongue coating turns black, it is even harder to treat.) Why? Because chuangzhen manifests according to the Five Zang organs. Before eruption, signs of all five Zang organs may be present; after eruption, it localizes to one organ, reflecting the severity of toxin accumulation. Thus, Liver involvement presents as watery tears (tears flowing like water, small and bluish); Lung involvement presents as purulent nasal discharge (thick turbid snot, white and abundant); Heart involvement presents as macules (red blood spots, small); Spleen involvement presents as papules (yellowish-red color, small spots). Only when it returns to the Kidney does it turn black (bluish-purple, dry, and sunken). Chuangzhen belongs to Yang and originally has no Kidney syndrome (the Kidney is located below the Fu organs and does not accept turbid toxins, hence no typical symptoms). Yang corresponds to Fire, and the Kidney corresponds to Water. When Fire is active and controlled by Water, is this not dangerous?
Zhu Shi stated: Whether chuangzhen has erupted or not, one must never use unblocking or purgative drugs; this is the greatest taboo. From start to finish, chuangzhen must not be purged, nor should laxatives be used indiscriminately, as entering toxins into the interior will kill the patient. From this, we see that although chuangzhen symptoms resemble Shanghan, the treatment methods for rash/pox are fundamentally different from Shanghan. Shanghan transmits from the exterior to the interior, whereas chuangzhen erupts from the interior to the exterior. Since the toxin root lies within, purgation causes internal Qi deficiency, preventing toxin expulsion and causing it to sink inward, leading to Earth failing to control Water and resulting in black sinking lesions. If the toxin erupts on the surface, diaphoresis causes Ying and Wei Qi deficiency, further opening the pores and increasing ulceration, allowing Wind pathogens to invade due to deficiency and causing complications. Diaphoresis and purgation are deeply cautioned against by ancient masters. How should regulation be achieved? The answer is: Invigorate blood and regulate Qi, stabilize the Exterior and harmonize the Middle Jiao, use light and clear detoxifying agents that combine warmth and coolness. Warm agents include Huangqi (Astragali Radix), Danggui (Angelicae Sinensis Radix), Muxiang (Aucklandiae Radix); cool agents include Qianhu (Peucedani Radix), Gengegen (Puerariae Lobatae Radix), Shengma (Cimicifugae Rhizoma). Assisted by Chuanxiong (Ligustici Chuanxiong Rhizoma), Shaoyao (Paeoniae Radix), Zhike (Aurantii Fructus), Jiegeng (Platycodonis Radix), Qianghuo (Notopterygii Rhizoma et Radix), Mutong (Akebiae Caulis), Zicao (Arnebiae Radix seu Lithospermi Radix), Gancao (Glycyrrhizae Radix et Rhizoma), etc., regulation can be achieved.
Whenever a child feels feverish with symptoms resembling Shanghan, but no pox/rash is visible and the diagnosis is uncertain, first administer Xingxing San (Wonderful Powder), Baolong Wan (Dragon-Holding Pill), or Shengsu San (Perilla-Ascending Powder). If heat is severe, first give Shengma Tang (Cimicifuga Decoction), or add Chuanxiong, Zisu (Perillae Folium), and Fuling (Poria). For vomiting, use Xiangsu Yin (Perilla Infusion) with Banxia (Pinelliae Rhizoma), Fuling, and Baishaoyao (White Peony Root). For diarrhea, use Xiangsu Yin with Baizhu (Atractylodis Macrocephalae Rhizoma) and Fuling. For vomiting/diarrhea with Stomach deficiency, use Chen’s Muxiang San (Aucklandia Powder). For thirst, use Shengma Tang with Zisu and Fuling. For convulsions and delirium with severe heat, administer Zhibao Dan (Precious Treasure Pill) and Baolong Wan together. These can be taken if the eruption has not fully emerged; if already fully erupted through the skin, they should not be taken. Fangfeng Tianma Wan (Saposhnikovia and Gastrodia Pill) may also be used. If rashes appear on days one or two as red dots like hemp seeds, varying in size, it is mild; if they appear all at once densely, it is severe. Administer Sisheng San (Four Saints Powder) in both cases. For those with diarrhea, use Zicao Muxiang Tang (Arnebia and Aucklandia Decoction) or Sijunzi Tang (Four Gentlemen Decoction) with Muxiang and Dingxiang (Caryophylli Flos). For those with chills but incomplete eruption, add Guigui (Cinnamomi Cortex). For those with fright-heat and complete eruption, treat with Kuaiban San (Rapid Macule Powder), which contains Chantui (Cicadae Periostracum). On days three or four, if eruption is incomplete, use Sisheng San. For cold skin, add Muxiang and Rougui (Cinnamomi Cortex), and additionally use Huoxue San (Invigorate Blood Powder), administered with warm wine and Zicao Tang (Arnebia Decoction) to assist efficacy, promoting faster eruption. For pain relief, take with warm water. For purple/black sinking lesions with internal heat and constipation, use Longdan Gao (Gentian Ointment): mix Zhu Xin Xue (Porcinis Cor), Chensha (Cinnabaris), and Naobi (Borneolum Syntheticum) into fine powder, and take with Muxiang Tang. Alternatively, Zhuwei Gao (Pig Tail Ointment) may be used. Do not use lightly if there is no severe internal heat. Sprinkling Huisu Jiu (Coriander Wine) around the room and on the body is beneficial, but avoid spraying the face to ward off evil Qi. Burning Cangzhu (Atractylodis Rhizoma) and Jiangzhen Xiang (Daemonorops Resina) is also good. On days five or six, if pox are very painful, only administer Shaoyao Gancao Tang (Peony and Licorice Decoction) to relieve pain; multiple doses are acceptable. Subsequently, administer Ganlu Yin (Sweet Dew Infusion). If there are pus sores in the mouth, swollen/painful throat, and inability to nurse/eat, treat accordingly. On days seven or eight, when lesions are transparent and slightly ulcerated, Dihuang Tang (Rehmannia Decoction) may be taken. For constipation, Xiaodu Yin (Detoxification Infusion) is suitable. Mild cases have red, vibrant, glossy roots; severe cases have damaged, sunken, dense, grayish-white lesions with diarrhea and thirst. For cases without fever, Siwu Tang (Four Substance Decoction) with Maidong (Ophiopogonis Radix), Fangfeng (Saposhnikoviae Radix), and Chantui may be used. On days nine or ten, if heat is severe, Xijiao Dihuang Tang (Rhinoceros Horn and Rehmannia Decoction) or Xiaodu Yin may be used, provided bowels/bladder are open. For urinary obstruction, modify Dalianqiao Tang (Large Garden Balsam Pod Decoction) until urination resumes; Daochi San (Guide Out Red Powder) and Qianghuo San are also applicable. For severe heat, use Xiaochaihu Tang (Minor Bupleurum Decoction); for severe thirst, use Baihu Tang (White Tiger Decoction). For severe constipation lasting several days, Xuanfeng San (Disperse Wind Powder) once is sufficient, interspersed with previous medicines. Mild cases have plump, full, waxy-colored pox; severe cases have chills, confusion, abdominal distension, irritability, thirst, panting, and teeth-grinding. On days eleven or twelve, pox should crust over and scabs fall off, indicating recovery. If between crusting stages, unable to crust, or presenting with abdominal distension, irritability/thirst, or diarrhea/shortness of breath, do NOT give honey water, melons, or fruits (cold nature); ingestion leads to death. Instead, administer Muxiang San or Yigong San (Extraordinary Efficacy Powder) with modifications. Generally, children who develop convulsions first then pox survive if pox heal then convulsions recur with vomiting/diarrhea (fatal). Those who have fever then pox survive; those with persistent diarrhea after pox eruption perish. Smooth progression involves sudden discharge of pus/blood/scabs after healing; adverse progression involves abdominal sores, bloody diarrhea with undigested food (Spleen/Stomach deficiency), or bloody diarrhea with necrotic non-pus-filled lesions (Stomach rot). Note that Yangming governs muscles; Stomach Qi must not be weak for a day. Protect the eyes first when treating pox/rash; apply Chensha or Hongzhi (Vermilion) to eye orbits, adding Honghua (Carthami Flos) for blood invigoration. If pox enter the eyes, use Jueming San (Cassia Seed Powder) or Zi Bei San (Purple Shell Powder). For stubborn scabs, moisten with Su You (Butyrum Susinum) or White Honey; remove if possible. Delayed removal leads to scars; apply scar-removal ointments. Strictly forbid chicken/duck eggs (causes blindness, pupil turning white like egg white); forbid pork. Avoid Qian Yi’s Baixiang Wan (Hundred Auspicious Pills) for purgation or human tooth preparations; instead, use Dusheng San (Single Saint Powder) and Niuli Gao (Cow Plum Ointment). If pox are injured by Wind-Cold causing Ying/Wei disharmony, or by retained food causing internal Qi blockage and hardening, use Jie Diao San (Regulating and Harmonizing Powder). For persistent diarrhea, use Shenling Baizhu San (Ginseng, Poria, and Atractylodes Macrocephala Powder) with Muxiang, or Sijunzi Tang with Muxiang and Doukou (Cardamomi Fructus). Although black pox are malignant, proper treatment allows survival. Care failures—nurses eating forbidden foods transmitting toxins, irregular feeding causing hunger/weakness, inadequate clothing causing Wind-Cold invasion, or emotional/environmental triggers—lead to hardening, deterioration, and Kidney involvement. This is self-inflicted harm. Proper care involves warming dispelling decoctions, nursing mothers drinking them, protecting from Wind-Cold, ensuring balanced Qi. Diet should prevent over-fullness (excess Qi) or starvation (deficient Qi). Chuang is called "Holy Rash": fever and eruption on day 7, drying on day 14, recovery on day 21. If one treats excess as excess and deficiency as deficiency, damaging what is insufficient and benefiting what is redundant, eruption becomes difficult. If Qi/Blood are regulated, Spleen/Stomach warmed, and Cold/Heat balanced, eruption is easy. This is the ultimate method of regulation. For early rash sensation with fever before eruption, Bian Que’s Oil Method reduces incidence or resolves it naturally, ensuring safety.
