头。蘸井花水揩拭之。睡时。黄丹 。出火气。掺舌上。如用此法不效。敷保命散。
李 曰。噤口风者眼闭。啼声渐少。舌上聚肉如粟米状。吮乳不得。口吐血沫。二便皆通。此胎中热毒流于心脾也。
此症亦初生七八日内患之。
鳌按。鹅口疮。用硼砂细研敷之。立效。
王肯堂曰。茅先生论。儿喉中壅一块肉瘤闭却。为喉痹。身大热。舌硬不转。为木舌。口闭。满口黄如膏。名鹅口。
三症皆热甚生风。风壅热毒至此。为实热。先用三解牛黄散。微与通利。次用天竺黄散、共牛黄膏与服。如喉响似锯。
及眼直视。面青黑。不乳食者。死。
孙思邈曰。脐风者。断脐之后。被水湿风冷所乘。风湿之气入于脐。而流入心脾。遂令肚腹胀满。脐肿。身体重着。
四肢柔直。日夜多啼。不能食乳。甚则发为惊搐。若脐边青黑。撮口不开。是为内搐。不治。爪甲黑者即死。
朱震亨曰。初生七日内。见噤口撮口脐风三症者危。百日内见此症。手足蜷者。亦不治。

王汉东曰。断脐作疮。枯矾龙骨 当归末皆可掺。或油调敷之。
李仲南曰。脐突者。芽儿有热在胸堂。则频频伸引。呃呃作声。努胀其气。抑入根本之中。所以脐突肿赤。虚大可
畏。无识之人。将谓断脐不利而使然者。非也。此由胎中母多惊悸。或恣食热毒之物所致。宜对症与药。其热自散。其
脐归本。不必敷药。恐反为害。
巢元方说：婴儿刚出生时，嘴里和舌头上布满白色碎屑，像鹅的嘴巴一样，因此得名。这是因为胎儿在母体内时，谷气过盛，心脾的热气熏蒸上发于口腔所致。治疗方法是：用丝线缠在手指上，蘸取清晨汲取的井水擦拭患处。睡觉时，将经过煅烧去火气的黄丹粉末撒在舌上。如果这种方法无效，则敷用保命散。
李（指李梴）说：噤口风的症状是眼睛紧闭，啼哭声逐渐减少，舌头上聚集的肉芽像粟米状，无法吮吸乳汁，口中吐血沫，大小便通畅。这是由于胎中的热毒流注于心脾所致。此症也发生在出生后七八天内。
沈金鳌按语：治疗鹅口疮，用硼砂细细研磨后敷在患处，立即见效。
王肯堂说：茅先生论述道：婴儿喉咙中壅塞一块肉瘤闭塞气道，称为喉痹；身体高热，舌头僵硬不能转动，称为木舌；口部紧闭，满口黄色如膏脂状，称为鹅口。这三种病症都是因为热极生风，风邪壅滞热毒至此，属于实热证。先用三解牛黄散，轻微给予通利二便的药物，接着服用天竺黄散、共牛黄膏。如果出现喉咙响声像拉锯声，以及眼睛直视、面色青黑、不吃奶的情况，则是死证。
孙思邈说：脐风是在断脐之后，被水湿和风冷侵袭，风湿之气进入脐部，进而流入心脾，导致肚腹胀满，脐部肿胀，身体沉重，四肢僵硬挺直，日夜多啼哭，不能进食乳汁，严重时引发惊厥抽搐。如果脐周颜色青黑，口唇撮缩不开，这是内搐，难以治愈。指甲变黑的即刻死亡。
朱震亨说：出生后七日内，出现噤口、撮口、脐风三种症状之一的，病情危重；百日内出现此症且手足蜷曲的，也难以治愈。
曾氏说：如果患儿禀赋充实，伴有发热、有痰、惊厥抽搐，可投服黑白饮、温蜜汤，空腹调服。若轻微腹泻呈茶褐色二三行，随后进服加姜枣的白芍药汤。常用此法，也很奇妙。
脐突这一病症，并非脐风。这也是因为初生洗浴时，系脐不紧，污水浸入内部，产后十几天外，脐部突然光亮浮肿如吹起的气球，按压时有微响，间或惊悸啼哭。治疗用白芍药汤加薏苡仁，其次外用消散涂贴，自然平复。
陈无择说：小儿出生后一七日内，忽然患脐风撮口，一百个里面没有一个有效的，只能坐视其死，实在令人怜悯。有一种方法世人很少知道：凡是患此症的，看婴儿齿龈上有小水泡像粟米大小，用温水浸湿熟帛包裹连指，轻轻擦破，即能开口并安顿下来，不用药物也有神效。
李（指李梴）说：断脐后，被风湿所侵袭，或被尿液弄湿尿布，遂成脐风。症状见面色红赤，呼吸急促，啼哭不出，脐部肿胀凸起，腹部胀满，日夜多啼，不能吃奶，严重时发生抽搐、撮口、噤口。适宜服用调气益黄散，严重的用金乌散或宣风散。也有因胸中有热，伸引努气，也会导致脐肿发风，可用千金龙胆汤。
钱乙说：脐湿肿，是断脐后被水湿所伤，或受风冷，导致四肢不和，脐部肿胀多啼，不能哺乳。适宜用柏墨散、五通膏。
滑伯仁说：婴儿脐中肿胀潮湿，经久不愈，如果到了一百日，就会死亡。应当迅速治疗，用枯矾、龙骨研为末，加入少许麝香，擦干脐部后掺入药粉，必须避风。
巢元方说：脐疮，是水进入脐中，或受尿液浸湿，肿胀腐烂成疮，或因脱落时被风邪侵袭，进入经络，则形成风痫。如果脐肿不干，久了则会引发抽搐，宜用金黄散。
王汉东说：断脐造成疮疡，枯矾、龙骨、当归的粉末都可以掺入，或用油调和敷贴。
李仲南说：脐突这一症，是因为婴儿胸中有热，频频伸引身体，发出呃呃的声音，努胀其气，压抑进入根本之中，所以脐部突起肿胀发红，虚大可怕。无知的人认为是断脐不利导致的，其实不是。这是由于胎中母亲多有惊悸，或恣意食用热毒之物所致。应当对症给药，热气自散，脐部自然回归原位，不必敷药，恐怕反而有害。
Chao Yuanfang stated: When a newborn infant is born, white flakes fill the mouth and cover the tongue, resembling the beak of a goose; hence the name. This occurs because during gestation, the "grain qi" (nutritive energy from food) was excessive, causing heat from the Heart and Spleen to steam upward and manifest in the mouth. The treatment method is to wrap silk thread around a finger, dip it in well water drawn at dawn, and wipe the affected area. Before sleep, sprinkle Huangdan (Red Lead Oxide, processed by firing to remove its fire toxicity) onto the tongue. If this method is ineffective, apply Baoming San (Life-Preserving Powder).
Li stated: Jin Kou Feng (Jammed-Mouth Wind) is characterized by closed eyes, gradually diminishing crying sounds, flesh aggregates on the tongue resembling millet grains, inability to suckle milk, vomiting of bloody froth, and patent urination and defecation. This results from fetal heat-toxin flowing into the Heart and Spleen. This condition also manifests within seven to eight days after birth.
Shen Jinao noted: For E Kou Chuang (Goose-Mouth Ulcer), finely grinding Pengsha (Borax) and applying it to the lesion yields immediate effect.
Wang Kentang cited Mr. Mao's discussion: If a mass of flesh obstructs the infant's throat, it is called Hou Bi (Throat Obstruction); if accompanied by high fever and a stiff, immobile tongue, it is called Mu She (Wood Tongue); if the mouth is closed with a yellow, paste-like coating covering the entire mouth, it is called E Kou (Goose Mouth). All three conditions arise from extreme heat generating wind, where wind stagnates heat-toxin, constituting an Excess-Heat syndrome. Initially, use Sanjie Niuhuang San (Three-Resolving Calculus Bovis Powder) with mild purgatives to promote bowel movement, followed by Tianzhu Huang San (Tian Zhu Huang Powder) and Gong Niuhuang Gao (Common Calculus Bovis Ointment). If the throat makes a sound like sawing, the eyes stare fixedly, the face turns blue-black, and the infant refuses milk, death ensues.
Sun Simiao stated: Qi Feng (Umbilical Wind) occurs after umbilical cord separation when exposed to dampness, wind, and cold. Damp-wind pathogens enter the umbilicus and flow into the Heart and Spleen, causing abdominal distension, umbilical swelling, heavy body sensation, rigid limbs, constant crying day and night, and inability to suckle. In severe cases, it develops into convulsions. If the skin around the umbilicus turns blue-black and the mouth puckers shut, it is Neichu (Internal Convulsion), which is incurable. If the fingernails turn black, death follows immediately.
Zhu Zhenheng stated: If any of the three conditions—Jin Kou (Jammed Mouth), Cuo Kou (Puckered Mouth), or Qi Feng (Umbilical Wind)—appear within seven days after birth, the prognosis is critical. If these symptoms appear within one hundred days accompanied by curled extremities, it is also considered incurable.
Zeng Shi stated: If the infant has robust constitution but presents with fever, phlegm, and convulsions, administer Hei Bai Yin (Black and White Drink) and warm honey water, taken on an empty stomach. If mild diarrhea occurs appearing tea-brown two or three times, subsequently advance to Bai Shaoyao Tang (White Peony Decoction) added with ginger and jujube. This method is commonly used and proves effective.
The condition of Qi Tu (Umbilical Protrusion) is distinct from Qi Feng. It arises because during initial bathing, the umbilical cord was not tied tightly, allowing dirty water to penetrate inward. After ten days postpartum, the umbilicus suddenly becomes smooth, swollen, and inflated like a blown balloon, producing slight noise upon manipulation, occasionally accompanied by palpitations and crying. Treatment involves Baishaoyao Tang (White Peony Decoction) added with Yiren (Coix Seed), followed by external application of Xiaisan (Resolve Accumulation Powder). The swelling will naturally subside.
Chen Wuzhe stated: Within the first seven days after birth, infants suddenly suffering from Qi Feng and Cuo Kou have no effective treatments among hundreds of cases, leading to helplessness and death, which is truly pitiable. There is a rarely known method: for such cases, inspect the infant's gums for small blisters resembling millet grains. Dip a cloth-wrapped finger in warm water and gently rupture the blister. The mouth will open and the infant will stabilize without medication, achieving miraculous effects.
Li stated: After umbilical cord separation, exposure to wind-dampness or urine-soiled diapers leads to Qi Feng. Symptoms include red face, rapid breathing, inability to cry, umbilical swelling and protrusion, abdominal distension, constant crying, inability to nurse, and potentially convulsions, puckered mouth, and jammed mouth. Suitable formulas include Tiaoqi Yihuang San (Regulate Qi and Benefit Yellow Powder); for severe cases, Jinyu San (Golden Crow Powder) or Xuanfeng San (Disperse Wind Powder). Heat in the chest cavity causing stretching and straining can also induce umbilical swelling and wind; Qianjin Longdan Tang (Preserve the Worthwhile Gentian Decoction) may be used.
Qian Yi stated: Qi Shi Zhong (Umbilical Dampness and Swelling) results from water-damp injury or wind-cold exposure after cord separation, causing disharmony in the four limbs, umbilical swelling, frequent crying, and inability to suckle. Suitable treatments are Baimo San (Cypress Ink Powder) and Wutong Gao (Five Passages Ointment).
Hua Borun stated: Infantile umbilical swelling and dampness that persists untreated will lead to death by one hundred days. Prompt treatment is required using Kunfan (Alum) and Longgu (Fossilized Bones) powdered together with a small amount of Shexiang (Musk). Dry the umbilicus before applying the powder, ensuring protection from wind.
Chao Yuanfang stated: Qi Chuang (Umbilical Ulcer) occurs when water enters the umbilicus or urine wets the area, causing swelling, rotting, and ulceration. If the detached cord stump is exposed to wind pathogens entering the meridians, it forms Feng Xian (Wind Epilepsy). Persistent umbilical swelling and moisture may eventually trigger convulsions; Jinhuang San (Golden Yellow Powder) is indicated.
Wang Handong stated: For ulcers resulting from umbilical cord cutting, powders of Kunfan (Alum), Longgu (Fossilized Bones), and Danggui (Angelica Sinensis) can be applied, or mixed with oil for topical application.
Li Zhongnan stated: Qi Tu (Umbilical Protrusion) arises when heat resides in the infant's chest, causing frequent stretching and grunting noises. The strained qi presses inward, causing the umbilicus to protrude, swell, and redden, appearing dangerously large. Ignorant people attribute this to improper cord tying, which is incorrect. It is caused by maternal palpitations during pregnancy or excessive consumption of heat-toxin-producing foods. Administer appropriate internal medicine to dissipate the heat; the umbilicus will return to its normal position without external applications, which might otherwise cause harm.
