钱乙论述:伤风出现昏睡、口中气息发热、呵欠且感到烦闷,应当采用发散法治疗。若服用大青膏后症状未解,且有可下之证,则应以大黄丸为主进行治疗。若患儿大量饮水不止且食欲旺盛,可轻微攻下,其余情况不可攻下。(大青膏方剂,见惊热门中;大黄丸方剂未见。)
钱乙论述:伤风导致手足发冷的,是脾脏虚弱怯弱所致。应当先调和脾胃,然后再进行发散治疗。调和脾胃用益黄散;发散用大青膏为主。(大青膏方剂见前文;益黄散方剂见胃气不和门。)
钱乙论述:伤风导致自发性腹泻的,是脾脏虚怯所致。应当补脾,用益黄散。发散用大青膏为主。若病未痊愈,用调中丸为主。若有可下之证,用大黄丸攻下。攻下之后,服用温惊丸。(大青膏方剂见惊热门;调中丸方剂见胃气不和门;温惊丸方剂见一切惊门;大黄丸方剂未见。)
钱乙论述:伤风导致腹胀的,是脾脏虚弱所致,应当补脾,这样必然不会气喘。之后再发散,仍需补脾。消除胀满用塌气丸为主。发散用大青膏为主。(塌气丸方剂见胃气不和门;大青膏方剂见惊热门。)
钱乙论述:伤风兼及五脏的,兼及心则出现惊悸;兼及肺则出现烦闷紊乱、喘息、气哽、长出气咳嗽;兼及肾则畏光。各随其母脏进行补益,这是因为出现了虚象的缘故。
钱乙论述:伤风攻下后余热未尽的,是因为用药攻下太过,导致胃中虚热,饮水无力。应当滋生胃中津液,多服用白术散。(白术散方剂见胃气不和门。)
钱乙论述伤风伴有呕吐、腹泻且身体温和时说:忽冷忽热,时常呼吸粗重,大便呈黄白色,呕吐,乳食不消化,时常咳嗽;更有五脏兼见的证候,应当煎煮入脏君臣药,化开大青膏,随后服用益黄散。如果先前已经攻下,或者没有可下之证,千万不可攻下。这是脾肺受寒,不能进食的缘故。(两方均见前文。)
钱乙论述伤风伴有呕吐、腹泻且身热时说:嗜睡,能吃奶,饮水不止,吐痰,大便呈黄水状。这是胃虚热渴导致的呕吐腹泻。应当滋生胃中津液以止渴,止渴后再服用发散药。止渴多服白术散,发散用大青膏为主。(两方均见前文。)
钱乙论述伤风伴有呕吐、腹泻且身凉时说:吐沫、泻青白色便,烦闷紊乱、不口渴、气哽、长出气、睡觉时眼睛半睁(露睛),这是伤风迁延日久导致正气轻弱怯懦,因而形成呕吐腹泻,应当补脾后再发散。补脾用益黄散;发散用大青膏为主。这两种证候多见于春冬季节。(两方均见前文。)
《玉诀》小儿伤风候歌曰:
鼻塞伤风肺受寒,喘咳惊啼卧不安。颊赤口干频发热,吐泻邪攻脏腑传。
此病应先给予清热,后祛除风涎,再平复胃气,这样就不会有误。

Qian Yi discussed: In cases of wind-cold injury (Shang Feng) presenting with lethargy, hot breath, yawning, and a sense of oppression, dispersing treatment should be employed. If Da Qing Gao (Great Blue Paste) fails to resolve the condition and there are signs indicating purgation, Da Huang Wan (Rhubarb Pill) should be administered. If the child drinks excessively without relief but has a good appetite, mild purgation may be considered; otherwise, purgation is contraindicated. (Da Qing Gao formula is found in the chapter on fright-heat; Da Huang Wan formula is not recorded.)
Qian Yi discussed: Wind-cold injury causing cold hands and feet indicates deficiency and timidity of the Spleen organ. The Spleen should first be harmonized before employing dispersing methods. To harmonize the Spleen, use Yi Huang San (Yellow Protecting Powder); for dispersing, use Da Qing Gao as the primary treatment. (Da Qing Gao formula is cited above; Yi Huang San formula is found in the chapter on Stomach Qi disharmony.)
Qian Yi discussed: Wind-cold injury causing spontaneous diarrhea indicates deficiency and timidity of the Spleen organ. The Spleen should be tonified using Yi Huang San. For dispersing, use Da Qing Gao. If the illness does not resolve, Tiao Zhong Wan (Middle Harmonizing Pill) should be used. If there are signs indicating purgation, Da Huang Wan should be used to purge. After purgation, Wen Jing Wan (Warm Fright Pill) should be taken. (Da Qing Gao formula is found in the fright-heat chapter; Tiao Zhong Wan formula is found in the stomach Qi disharmony chapter; Wen Jing Wan formula is found in the general fright chapter; Da Huang Wan formula is not recorded.)
Qian Yi discussed: Wind-cold injury causing abdominal distension indicates Spleen deficiency. The Spleen must be tonified, which will prevent wheezing. Subsequently, dispersing treatment should be applied, along with continued Spleen tonification. To remove distension, Ta Qi Wan (Qi Collapsing Pill) is primarily used. For dispersing, Da Qing Gao is primarily used. (Ta Qi Wan formula is found in the stomach Qi disharmony chapter; Da Qing Gao formula is found in the fright-heat chapter.)
Qian Yi discussed: When wind-cold injury involves the Zang organs, involvement of the Heart leads to palpitations and fright; involvement of the Lung leads to oppression and confusion, wheezing, choking sensations, sighing, and coughing; involvement of the Kidney leads to photophobia. Each case should be treated by tonifying the mother organ, as these are manifestations of deficiency.
Qian Yi discussed: Residual heat after purgation in wind-cold injury results from excessive purgative medication, leading to deficient heat in the Stomach and weakness in drinking water. One should generate fluids in the Stomach by administering Bai Zhu San (Atractylodes Macrocephala Powder) frequently. (Bai Zhu San formula is found in the stomach Qi disharmony chapter.)
Qian Yi discussed wind-cold injury accompanied by vomiting, diarrhea, and warm body temperature: sudden chills and fever, frequent coarse breathing, yellowish-white stool, vomiting, indigestion of milk and food, and intermittent coughing; additionally, symptoms involving the five Zang organs may appear. Decoctions of sovereign and minister herbs for the affected Zang organs should be prepared, mixed with Da Qing Gao, followed by Yi Huang San. If purgation was previously performed or if there are no signs indicating purgation, purgation must strictly be avoided. This is due to cold invading the Spleen and Lung, preventing food intake. (Both formulas are cited above.)
Qian Yi discussed wind-cold injury accompanied by vomiting, diarrhea, and fever: excessive sleep, ability to suckle, incessant drinking, expectoration of phlegm, and yellow watery stool. This is vomiting and diarrhea caused by deficient heat and thirst in the Stomach. One should generate Stomach fluids to quench thirst, and after thirst is quenched, administer dispersing herbs. For quenching thirst, take Bai Zhu San frequently; for dispersing, use Da Qing Gao as the primary treatment. (Both formulas are cited above.)
Qian Yi discussed wind-cold injury accompanied by vomiting, diarrhea, and cool body temperature: spitting foam, greenish-white loose stools, oppression and confusion, absence of thirst, choking sensations, sighing, and sleeping with eyes partially open (exposing the eyeballs). This is wind-cold injury lingering over time, leading to weak and deficient constitution, resulting in vomiting and diarrhea. The Spleen should be tonified before dispersing. For tonifying the Spleen, use Yi Huang San; for dispersing, use Da Qing Gao as the primary treatment. These two conditions often occur in spring and winter. (Both formulas are cited above.)
The "Yu Jue" Song on Pediatric Wind-Cold Symptoms states:
Nasal congestion from wind-cold, Lung invaded by cold,
Wheezing, coughing, fright, crying, restless sleep.
Red cheeks, dry mouth, frequent fever,
Vomiting and diarrhea, pathogen attacks Zang-Fu transmission.
This ailment should first be treated with heat-clearing, then wind-phlegm expulsion, followed by Stomach Qi regulation, ensuring no error.
