〔郑〕夫汗者,心之所藏,在内为血,发外者为汗。盖汗乃心之液,故人之气血
平则宁,偏则病。经云∶阴虚阳必凑,则发热而自汗,阳虚而阴必乘,则发厥而自
汗。皆由阴阳偏胜而致也。小儿血气嫩弱,肤腠未密,若浓衣温暖,熏蒸脏腑,脏腑
生热,热搏于心,为邪所胜,故液不能内藏,熏出肌肤,则为盗汗也。又或伤于冷
热,冷热交争,阴阳不顺,津液走泄,亦令睡中汗自出。其间有虚实之证,虚者谓
诸病后、大汗后、血气尚弱,液溢自汗,或潮热或寒热发过之后身凉自汗,日久令
人黄瘦,失治则变为骨蒸疳劳也。丹溪云∶盗汗者,谓睡而汗出也,不睡则不出,
汗出,方其睡熟也, 然出焉,觉则止而不复出矣,亦是心虚,宜敛心气,益肾
水,使阴阳调和,水火升降,其汗自止。钱氏云∶上至头,下至项,谓之六阳虚汗,
不须治之。
〔薛〕自汗者,汗不待发表而自出也。经曰∶饮食饱甚,汗出于胃,惊而夺精,
汗出于心,持重远行,汗出于肾,疾走恐惧,汗出于肝,摇体劳苦,汗出于脾。又曰∶阴虚而阳必辏,则发热而自汗,
阳虚而阴必乘,则发厥而自汗。束垣云∶表虚自汗,秋冬用桂,春夏用黄 。丹溪云∶汗者,心之液也,自汗之证,未
有不由心肾俱虚而得之者。巢氏云∶虚劳病,若阳气偏虚,则津液发泄而为汗。
夫心为主阳之脏,火也,阳主气,人身津液,随其阳气所在之处而生,亦随其
火所扰之处而泄,则为自汗矣。治法,当用参 甘温益气之药,使阳气外固而津液

〔郑〕汗,是心所藏之物,在体内称为血,发散于体外则称为汗。因为汗是心的体液,所以人的气血平和则身体安宁,气血偏颇则生病。医经说:阴虚则阳邪必凑集,导致发热而自汗;阳虚则阴邪必乘袭,导致四肢厥冷而自汗。这都是由于阴阳偏盛所致。小儿气血娇嫩虚弱,皮肤腠理不致密,如果穿衣过厚、保暖过度,熏蒸脏腑,使脏腑生热,热邪搏结于心,被邪气所胜,因此津液不能在内潜藏,熏蒸而出于肌肤,就成为盗汗。或者又受到冷热之邪的损伤,冷热相互交争,阴阳失调,津液外泄,也会导致睡中汗出。这其中又有虚实之分。虚证是指各种疾病之后、大汗之后,气血尚且虚弱,津液溢出而自汗;或者是潮热、或寒热发作过后,身体凉爽时自汗,日久使人面色萎黄消瘦,若失治则会变为骨蒸疳劳。丹溪说:盗汗,是指睡着时汗出,不睡则不出,当睡熟时,汗自然流出,醒来则停止不再出,这也是心气虚,应当收敛心气,滋益肾水,使阴阳调和,水火既济,其汗自然停止。钱乙说:汗出上至头顶,下至项部,称为六阳虚汗,不需要治疗。
〔薛〕自汗,是指不待发汗解表而汗自然流出。医经说:饮食过饱,汗出于胃;受惊夺精,汗出于心;负重远行,汗出于肾;疾走恐惧,汗出于肝;摇体劳苦,汗出于脾。又说:阴虚则阳邪必凑集,导致发热而自汗;阳虚则阴邪必乘袭,导致四肢厥冷而自汗。束垣说:表虚自汗,秋冬季节用桂枝(类方),春夏季节用黄芪(类方)。丹溪说:汗是心的体液,自汗这一病症,没有不是由心肾两虚而得的。巢元方说:虚劳病,如果阳气偏虚,则津液发泄而为汗。心是主阳的脏,属火,阳主气,人身津液,随着阳气所在之处而生,也随着火邪扰乱之处而泄,这就成为自汗了。治疗方法,应当用人参、甘草等甘温益气之药,使阳气在外固护而津液在内潜藏,则汗止住了。如果元气虚者,夏季用六君子汤加山药、山茱萸,冬季用加减八味丸、十全大补汤。血虚者用四物汤加人参。有热者用当归六黄汤。气血俱虚者用十全大补汤。心肾虚热者用六味地黄丸。虚寒者用金匮肾气丸(八味丸)。心经血虚者用团参汤。胃经气虚者用六君子汤。饮食劳倦者用补中益气汤。嗜卧倦怠者用升阳益胃汤。热伤元气者用清燥汤。暑邪干犯心包络者用清暑益气汤。外伤风邪者用惺惺散。虚劳羸瘦者用人参养荣汤。思虑伤脾者用归脾汤。怒动肝火者用小柴胡汤。肝经虚热者用加味逍遥散。肝经湿热者用龙胆泻肝汤。泄泻脉微者用人参理中汤。手足汗出者用补中益气汤。胸腹汗出者用四君子汤。当心口一片有汗者用茯苓补心汤。黄汗者用茵陈五苓散。血汗者用血余散外敷。这些都是止汗的大法,仍要推求五脏相克关系来主治。如果汗出如油,气喘不停,这是命绝之兆。柔汗发黄,这是脾绝之兆。汗出不流如贯珠状,这是绝汗。这几种情况都不治。如果是六阳虚,则汗出上至头,下至项,也多主难治。〔曾〕小儿脾虚自汗,多出现在额头,沾黏人手,需速救胃气,用全蝎观音散用姜枣煎汤调服,以及沉香饮来治疗。脾虚泻兼自汗,遍身冷而汗出有时,遇腹泻则无汗,泻过即有汗,此候太虚,急当补脾,投益黄散、参苓白术散、附子理中汤。肺虚自汗,其症状是右脸色多苍白,肺脉按之无力,盖因久患咳嗽,连声不已,痰少不畅,乃肺经虚气上壅,致使汗出,宜令用补肺散治疗,并用藿香饮调理脾胃,这又是益母救子的道理。慢惊风自汗,遍体都有,其冷如水,此证已危重,用金液丹、固真汤主治。有实证自汗,外因感冒风邪,发热无间,昏醒之际浸淫汗出,当救表解肌,用百解散水煎服,或间或投五苓散温白汤调下。
〔钱〕治病有等级次序。张氏三个儿子生病,大的汗遍全身。次者汗上至头顶下至胸部。小者仅额头有汗。众医生用麦煎散治疗,无效。钱乙说:大的给予香瓜丸。次者给予益脾散。小者给予石膏汤。各服五日而愈。

[Zheng] Sweat is stored by the Heart; within the interior it is called Blood, and when emitted to the exterior it is called Sweat. Since sweat is the fluid of the Heart, when a person's Qi and Blood are in balance, the body remains tranquil; when they are imbalanced, disease arises. The Classics state: "When Yin is deficient, Yang must encroach, leading to fever and spontaneous sweating (Zi Han); when Yang is deficient, Yin must invade, leading to cold extremities and spontaneous sweating." All these result from an excess of either Yin or Yang. Children have tender and weak Qi and Blood, and their skin pores (Cou Li) are not dense. If they wear thick clothes and are kept too warm, this steams the Zang-Fu organs, generating heat within them. When heat combats with the Heart and is overcome by pathogenic factors, the fluids cannot be stored internally but are steamed out through the skin, resulting in night sweats (Dao Han). Alternatively, if injured by cold or heat, the conflict between cold and heat disrupts the harmony of Yin and Yang, causing fluids to leak, which also leads to sweating during sleep. Among these, there are deficiency and excess patterns. Deficiency patterns refer to cases after various illnesses or profuse sweating, where Qi and Blood are still weak, causing fluids to overflow and sweat spontaneously; or sweating spontaneously when the body cools down after tidal fever or alternating chills and fever. Over time, this causes sallow complexion and emaciation; if untreated, it may transform into bone-steaming consumption (Gu Zheng Gan Lao). Danxi said: "Night sweats refer to sweating while sleeping; without sleep, there is no sweat. While deeply asleep, sweat naturally flows out; upon waking, it stops and does not reappear." This is also due to Heart deficiency. One should astringe Heart Qi and nourish Kidney Water to harmonize Yin and Yang and facilitate the descent of Fire and ascent of Water, so that sweating will cease naturally. Qian Yi said: "Sweating extending from the top of the head down to the neck is called 'Six-Yang Deficiency Sweating' (Liu Yang Xu Han), which requires no treatment."
[Xue] Spontaneous sweating refers to sweating occurring without the need for diaphoretic therapy. The Classics state: "After excessive fullness from food, sweat comes from the Stomach; after fright and loss of Essence, sweat comes from the Heart; after carrying heavy loads and traveling far, sweat comes from the Kidney; after running fast and fear, sweat comes from the Liver; after bodily exertion and toil, sweat comes from the Spleen." It also states: "When Yin is deficient, Yang must encroach, leading to fever and spontaneous sweating; when Yang is deficient, Yin must invade, leading to cold extremities and spontaneous sweating." Shuyuan said: "For spontaneous sweating due to Exterior deficiency, use Cinnamon Twig Decoction (Gui Zhi Tang) type formulas in autumn and winter, and Astragalus Decoction type formulas in spring and summer." Danxi said: "Sweat is the fluid of the Heart. There is no case of spontaneous sweating that does not arise from dual deficiency of the Heart and Kidney." Chao Yuanfang said: "In consumptive diseases, if Yang Qi is excessively deficient, then Body Fluids are exuded as sweat." The Heart is the organ that governs Yang and belongs to Fire. Yang governs Qi. Human Body Fluids are generated where Yang Qi resides and are discharged where Fire disturbs, thus becoming spontaneous sweating. The treatment method should employ sweet-warm and Qi-tonifying herbs such as Ginseng Radix et Rhizoma (Renshen) and Licorice Root (Gancao) to secure Yang Qi on the exterior and store Body Fluids within, thereby stopping sweating. For those with deficient Yuan Qi, use Liu Jun Zi Tang (Six Gentlemen Decoction) with Dioscoreae Rhizoma (Shanyao) and Cornus Fructus (Shanzhuyu) in summer, and Jia Jian Ba Wei Wan (Modified Eight-Ingredient Pill) or Shi Quan Da Bu Tang (Ten Significant Great Tonifying Decoction) in winter. For Blood deficiency, use Si Wu Tang (Four Substance Decoction) plus Ginseng Radix et Rhizoma (Renshen). For those with heat, use Dang Gui Liu Huang Tang (Angelica Six-Huang Decoction). For dual Qi and Blood deficiency, use Shi Quan Da Bu Tang. For Heart and Kidney deficiency-heat, use Liu Wei Di Huang Wan (Six-Ingredient Pill with Rehmannia). For deficiency-cold, use Ba Wei Wan (Eight-Ingredient Pill, i.e., Jin Gui Shen Qi Wan). For Heart channel Blood deficiency, use Tuan Shen Tang. For Stomach channel Qi deficiency, use Liu Jun Zi Tang. For dietary indiscretion and fatigue, use Bu Zhong Yi Qi Tang. For lethargy and lassitude, use Sheng Yang Yi Wei Tang. For heat damaging Yuan Qi, use Qing Zao Tang. For Summer-heat invading the Pericardium channel, use Qing Shu Yi Qi Tang. For external Wind pathogen invasion, use Xing Xing San. For consumptive emaciation, use Ren Shen Yang Rong Tang. For overthinking damaging the Spleen, use Gui Pi Tang. for anger stirring Liver Fire, use Xiao Chai Hu Tang. For Liver channel deficiency-heat, use Jia Wei Xiao Yao San. For Liver channel damp-heat, use Long Dan Xie Gan Tang. For diarrhea with faint pulse, use Ren Shen Li Zhong Tang. For sweating of hands and feet, use Bu Zhong Yi Qi Tang. For sweating of chest and abdomen, use Si Jun Zi Tang. For sweating localized at the heart region, use Fu Ling Bu Xin Tang. For yellow sweat, use Yin Chen Wu Ling San. For bloody sweat, apply Xue Yu San externally. These are all major methods for stopping sweat, yet one must still deduce the governing pathology based on the mutual overcoming relationships of the Five Zang organs. If sweat oozes like oil and breathing is labored without cessation, this indicates the end of life. If soft sweat turns the skin yellow, this indicates the end of the Spleen. If sweat does not flow but beads like pearls, this is 'Jue Han' (Extinction Sweat). None of these conditions are treatable. If it is Six-Yang deficiency, with sweat extending from the head to the neck, it is also mostly difficult to treat. [Zeng] Pediatric spontaneous sweating due to Spleen deficiency often appears on the forehead, sticking to human hands; one must quickly rescue Stomach Qi using Quan Xie Guan Yin San mixed with Ginger and Jujube decoction, and Chen Xiang Yin for treatment. For Spleen deficiency diarrhea with spontaneous sweating, the whole body is cold with intermittent sweating; there is no sweat during diarrhea, but it returns immediately after. This condition indicates extreme deficiency; urgently tonify the Spleen with Yi Huang San, Shen Ling Bai Zhu San, or Fu Zi Li Zhong Tang. For Lung deficiency spontaneous sweating, the right cheek color is often pale, and the Lung pulse is forceless upon palpation. This is due to chronic coughing with continuous barking sounds and scanty, unproductive phlegm, causing deficient Qi of the Lung channel to obstruct upwards, leading to sweating. Use Bu Fei San for treatment, and use Huo Xiang Yin to regulate the Spleen and Stomach, following the principle of benefiting the mother to save the child. For slow convulsion with spontaneous sweating, the entire body sweats and feels cold as water; this condition is critical, treated with Jin Ye Dan and Gu Zhen Tang. For excess pattern spontaneous sweating caused by external Wind pathogen invasion, with constant fever and dripping sweat during drowsiness and wakefulness, one should rescue the Exterior and release the muscle layer using Bai Jie San decocted in water, or alternatively administer Wu Ling San mixed with warm white wine.
[Qian] Treatment has hierarchical distinctions. The three sons of Zhang were ill: the eldest sweated all over the body; the second sweated from the top of the head to the chest; the youngest sweated only on the forehead. Many physicians treated them with Mai Jian San without effect. Qian Yi said: Give Xiang Gua Wan to the eldest; Yi Pi San to the second; Shi Gao Tang to the youngest. Each recovered after five days of administration.

Mix the melon and medicine with wheat paste to form pills the size of mung beans. Take 2-3 pills after meals with cool grain water or new well water; for the eldest, take 5-7 pills, not exceeding 10.
Stomach weakness sweating, extending from the top of the head to the navel, indicates Stomach deficiency; one should tonify the Stomach, treating with Yi Huang San.
[Qian] Six-Yang deficiency sweating extends from the top of the head but does not go below the chest; it requires no treatment. 'Xi Han' (Joyful/Thick-clothes sweating) refers to sweating on the forehead after sleeping in thick clothing; treat with Zhi Han San.
