《巢氏病源》小儿风痉候∶小儿风痉之病,状如痫而背脊、颈项强直,是风伤太阳之经。小儿解脱或脐疮未
合,为风所伤,皆令发痉。
《千金》论曰∶温病热入肾中亦为痉,小儿病痫热盛亦为痉。凡风 、暴尸厥及鬼魇不寤皆相似,宜精察之。
故经言∶久厥则成痫。是以知似也。
《千金》又论曰∶太阳中风,重感于寒湿则变痉也。痉者,口噤不开,背强而直,如发痫之状;摇头马鸣、
腰反折。须臾十发,气息如绝,汗出如雨,时有脱。易得之者,新产妇人及余疮血脉虚竭;小儿脐风、大人凉
湿,得痉风者皆死。温病热盛入肾,小儿痫热盛皆痉。痉、喑、厥、癫皆相似,故久厥成癫。审察之,其重者,
患耳中HT HT 痛,皆风入肾经中也,不治流入肾,则喜卒然体痉直如死。皆宜服小续命汤两、三剂也。若耳痛肿
生汁,作痈疖者,乃无害也,惟风宜防耳。针耳前动脉及风府,神良。
茅先生∶小儿有因痫失调而传变候,双目上视,都不见黑睛,浑身强直。或反张如死尸,或似角弓,五
硬下黑血。此候因痫甚却变痉,调理即根据痫病。如吐痢不止,死候。大凡此候,十中无一,且图知候也。

《巢氏病源》中关于小儿风痉的论述:小儿患风痉病,症状类似癫痫,但表现为背部脊柱和颈项部僵硬挺直,这是风邪损伤了太阳经。小儿如果脐带脱落不久,或者脐部疮口尚未愈合,被风邪侵袭,都会导致发生痉挛。
《千金方》论述说:温病的热邪深入肾中也会引起痉挛,小儿患癫痫且热势亢盛时也会引起痉挛。凡是中风、暴尸厥以及鬼魅压身不醒的情况,症状都相似,应当仔细辨别。
所以医经中说:长时间的厥逆会演变成癫痫。因此知道这些病症是相似的。
《千金方》又论述说:太阳经受中风,如果再感受寒湿之邪,就会转变为痉挛症。痉挛症的表现是牙关紧闭不能张开,背部僵硬挺直,像发作癫痫的样子;伴有摇头、发出马叫声、腰部向后反折。短时间内发作十次,呼吸微弱似断绝,出汗如雨,有时会出现虚脱。容易得这种病的人,是新产后的妇女以及身体因其他疮疡导致血脉空虚衰竭者;小儿患脐风、大人受凉湿侵袭,一旦患上痉挛风证,大多死亡。温病热盛入肾,小儿癫痫热盛,都会导致痉挛。痉挛、失音、厥逆、癫狂的症状都很相似,所以长期的厥逆会演变成癫狂。仔细审查病情,重症患者会出现耳中疼痛(注:原文“HT HT”为古籍异体字或讹误,此处依语境译为耳痛),这都是风邪侵入肾经所致,若不及时治疗,风邪流入肾脏,就会导致突然全身痉挛挺直,状如死人。这些情况都适宜服用小续命汤两到三剂。如果耳痛肿胀流脓水,形成痈疖,反而没有大害,只有风邪需要防范。针刺耳前的动脉及风府穴,效果很好。
茅先生认为:小儿有的因为癫痫调理不当而传变出现此候,表现为双眼上视,完全看不见黑眼球,浑身僵硬挺直。有的身体向后反张像死尸一样,有的像角弓反张,五硬部位流出黑血。这种候证是因为癫痫严重后转变为痉挛,调理方法应根据癫痫病的治法进行。如果出现呕吐腹泻不止,则是死证。大凡这种候证,十例中无一存活,姑且记录此候以便识别。

*Source: Youyou Xinshu (New Book for Children), Liu Fang, Song Dynasty. Chapter: Stroke and Spasm IV.*
**From *Chao Shi Bing Yuan* (巢氏病源) on the Syndrome of Pediatric Wind Spasm:** The disease of wind spasm in children presents with symptoms similar to epilepsy, characterized by stiffness and rigidity of the back spine and neck. This indicates that wind pathogen has injured the Taiyang meridian (Taiyang channel syndrome). If a child's umbilical cord has recently detached, or if there is an umbilical ulcer that has not yet healed, invasion by wind pathogen can all lead to the onset of spasm.
**Discussion from *Qianjin Fang* (Thousand Golden Prescriptions):** It states that when the heat of warm diseases penetrates into the Kidney, it also causes spasm; similarly, when children suffer from epilepsy with excessive heat, spasm may occur. Conditions such as wind stroke, sudden collapse (Bao Shi Jue), and sleep paralysis (ghost oppression) present with similar symptoms and must be carefully differentiated. Thus, the classics state: "Prolonged Jue (reversal cold) evolves into epilepsy." Hence, these conditions are known to be similar.
**Further discussion from *Qianjin Fang*:** When Taiyang is affected by wind, and subsequently re-infected by cold-dampness, it transforms into spasm. Spasm is characterized by trismus (lockjaw) where the mouth cannot open, back stiffness and straightening, resembling an epileptic seizure; accompanied by head shaking, sounds like a horse neighing, and opisthotonos (backward arching of the back). Within a short time, ten attacks may occur, respiration becomes faint as if cut off, sweating is profuse like rain, and sometimes collapse occurs. Those prone to this condition include postpartum women and others whose blood vessels are depleted due to other ulcers. For children suffering from umbilical wind, or adults exposed to cool dampness, contracting wind-spasm is often fatal. When warm disease heat enters the Kidney, or pediatric epilepsy heat is excessive, spasm results. Spasm, aphonia, Jue, and mania share similar features, hence prolonged Jue leads to mania. Careful examination reveals that in severe cases, patients experience ear pain (textual corruption noted), indicating wind entering the Kidney meridian. If untreated, wind flows into the Kidney, causing sudden whole-body spasm and rigidity, appearing as death. In such cases, Xiao Xuming Tang (Minor Continuation Life Decoction) should be administered for two to three doses. If ear pain involves swelling and discharge forming carbuncles, it is less harmful; only wind needs prevention. Acupuncture at the arterial pulse in front of the ear and Fengfu (GV16) yields excellent results.
**Mr. Mao:** Some children develop this syndrome due to improper management of epilepsy. Symptoms include eyes rolling upward, completely obscuring the black pupil, and whole-body rigidity. The body may arch backward like a corpse or resemble bow-string tension (opisthotonos), with black blood flowing from the "Five Hardness" areas. This syndrome arises when severe epilepsy transforms into spasm; treatment should follow the principles for managing epilepsy. However, if vomiting and diarrhea persist, it is a sign of impending death. Generally, fewer than one in ten survive this syndrome; this description is recorded for identification purposes.
