《巢氏病源》小儿伤寒大小便不通候∶伤寒是寒气客于皮肤，搏于血气，使腠理闭密，气不宣泄，蕴积生热，
故头痛体疼而壮热，其大小便不通，是寒搏于气而生热，热流入大小肠，故涩结不通。凡大小便不通，则内热
不歇；或干呕，或言语而气还逆上，则心腹胀满也。

《诸病源候论》中关于小儿伤寒导致大小便不通的论述：伤寒是由于寒气侵袭皮肤，与血气相搏结，使得腠理（皮肤纹理及汗孔）闭塞致密，体内之气无法宣泄，郁积而产生热邪。因此出现头痛、身体疼痛且高热；其大小便不通，是因为寒邪搏结于气分而生热，热邪流入大肠和小肠，导致津液枯竭、粪便干结而排便困难。凡是大小便不通，体内的热邪就不会停止；或者出现干呕，或者说话时气息上逆，从而导致心腹部胀满。

According to *Chao Shi Bing Yuan* (Source and Characteristics of Diseases by Chao Yuanfang), regarding the condition of infants and children with cold damage (Shanghan) resulting in obstruction of urination and defecation: Cold damage occurs when cold qi invades the skin, contending with blood and qi, causing the couli (skin pores and interstices) to become closed and dense. As a result, qi cannot be vented, leading to accumulation and generation of heat. Consequently, there is headache, body pain, and high fever. The obstruction of urination and defecation arises because cold contends with qi to generate heat; this heat flows into the Large Intestine and Small Intestine, causing dryness and binding that prevents passage. Whenever urination and defecation are obstructed, internal heat does not cease; alternatively, one may experience dry retching or speech accompanied by counterflow of qi, leading to distension and fullness in the heart and abdomen.
*Tai Ping Sheng Hui Fang* (Imperial Grace Formulary of the Taiping Era) prescribes the Da Huang San (Rhubarb Powder) for treating infantile cold damage characterized by high fever, mental restlessness, headache, dry mouth, and difficult passage of dark red urine and stool.
Ingredients: Chuan Da Huang (Radix et Rhizoma Rhei, half liang, crushed, slightly stir-fried); Zhi Zi Ren (Semen Gardeniae, one qian); Chi Shao Yao (Radix Paeoniae Rubra, one qian); Zhi Gan Cao (Radix Glycyrrhizae Preparata, stir-fried until slightly red, crushed, one qian); Huang Qin (Radix Scutellariae, one qian).
Preparation: Crush the above ingredients and sift them coarsely to make a powder. For each dose, take one qian, add one zhong zhan (approx. 200ml) of water, decoct until five fen (approx. 100ml) remains, strain, and administer warm. Adjust the dosage according to the child's age and size. Efficacy is indicated by the relief of bowel obstruction.
*Tai Ping Sheng Hui Fang* also prescribes the San Huang San (Three Yellows Powder) for infantile cold damage persisting for five to six days, presenting with high fever, mental restlessness, dry mouth, vexatious thirst, and difficulty in urination and defecation.

Preparation: Crush the above ingredients and sift them coarsely to make a powder. For each dose, take one qian, add one xiao zhan (approx. 100ml) of water, decoct until five fen remains, and strain. Administer frequently, adjusting the dosage according to the child's age and size. Efficacy is indicated by the relief of bowel obstruction.
Zhang Huan's Xi Jiao San (Rhinoceros Horn Powder) treats infantile cold damage lasting six to seven days, where the large intestine is obstructed and heat is severe.
Ingredients: Xi Jiao (Cornu Rhinocerotis, powdered, one liang); Chuan Da Huang (Radix et Rhizoma Rhei, processed, one liang); Chai Hu (Radix Bupleuri, stems removed, one liang); Ren Shen (Radix Ginseng, rootlets removed, half liang); Pu Xiao (Natrii Sulfas, one qian); Zhi Gan Cao (Radix Glycyrrhizae Preparata, stir-fried, one qian).

Adjust the dosage according to the child's age and size.
The Xi Xin San (Heart-Washing Powder) from *Huo Ren Shu* (Book of Saving Lives) treats generalized high fever, fine pain in the head and eyes, stiffness and tension in the back and shoulders, surging high heat, bitter taste in the mouth, scorched lips, dry tongue during sleep, swelling and pain in the throat, thick and sticky nasal discharge and saliva, phlegm obstruction, loss of appetite, mental restlessness and heat, dry and sore eyes, nasal congestion due to cold damage, heaviness in the four limbs, inability to speak, pain in all joints, and unfavorable urination and defecation. It is also suitable for fu dou chuang (smallpox-like eruptions), epidemic febrile diseases, delirium with excessive thirst, infantile tian diao feng (convulsive disorder), and night frights.
