（附论）
夫痈疽烦渴之证。由热气熏灼五脏。津液不足于内也。盖营卫气血。腐化为脓血。则津
液不得不耗。津液既耗。热气复盛。则心神内烦。而引饮不止。然或为呕哕下利者。以五脏
虚热。饮水过度。气不足以胜之。故气逆于上。则呕哕。肠胃不固。则变下利也。此属痈疽
恶证。
凡病疽疾之人。多有既安之后。忽发渴疾而不救者。十有八九。疽疾将安。而渴疾已作。
即合便服加减八味丸。既安之后。而渴疾之证未见。亦合先服此药。以预防其未然。若疾形
已见。卒难救疗。痈疽后合服补药。若用峻补之药。则发热。又况痈疾人安乐之后。多转作
渴疾。不可治疗。当预服加减八味丸。如能久服。永不生渴疾。血气加壮。未发疽人。或先
有渴证。亦合服此药。渴疾既安。疽亦不作。
痈疽作热发渴。毒瓦斯炎盛。急服神仙追毒丸。每日一服。取下恶毒。次服清膻汤、万全
散、五香连翘汤、六味车螯散、千金漏芦汤。皆可选用。然下利以后。尚渴不止。却用生津
补气秘传金粉散、人参黄 散、内补散之类。津液生。血气实。渴自止。

痈疽烦渴方。\x

【附论】
痈疽伴随烦渴的症状，是由于热气熏灼五脏，导致体内津液不足。营卫气血腐败化为脓血，津液必然消耗。津液一旦耗损，热气更加旺盛，就会使心神内部烦乱，从而不断引水自饮。然而，如果出现呕吐、呃逆或腹泻的情况，是因为五脏虚热，饮水过多，气力不足以运化水湿，导致气机上逆而呕吐呃逆；肠胃不固，则转变为腹泻。这属于痈疽的危重证候。
凡是患有疽病的人，大多在病情看似安定之后，突然发作口渴症且无法救治，十有八九会死亡。如果在疽病即将痊愈时，口渴症已经出现，就应当立即服用加减八味丸。如果在病情安定后，口渴症状尚未出现，也应当预先服用此药，以预防其发生。如果疾病形态已经显现，突然难以救治。痈疽之后应当服用补益药物，但如果使用峻猛的补药，会导致发热。况且患痈疽的人在安乐之后，多转为口渴症，难以治疗。应当预先服用加减八味丸。如果能长期服用，永远不会再生渴疾，气血会更加强壮。未发疽病的人，或者先前已有口渴症状，也应当服用此药。口渴症既已安定，疽病也不会发作。
痈疽发热引发口渴，毒瓦斯炽盛，应立即服用神仙追毒丸，每日一服，以排出恶毒。随后服用清膻汤、万全散、五香连翘汤、六味车螯散、千金漏芦汤等，均可选用。如果在腹泻之后，仍然口渴不止，则应使用生津补气秘传金粉散、人参黄芪散、内补散之类。待津液生成，气血充实，口渴自然停止。

托里黄芪散：治疗口干微热。
人参、甘草（各半两）、白术、茯苓、芍药、桔梗（各一两）、黄芪（二两）。以上药材为粗末。每服三钱，用水一盏，煎至七分，去渣，稍热不拘时候。
六味车螯散：内消痈疽，取下恶毒，首初便服。
车螯（四个，黄泥固济火煅通赤出火毒一宿研为末）、灯草（三十茎）、甘草节（二钱，炒）、栝蒌（一个，去皮用仁新瓦上炒令香）。上将栝蒌、灯心、甘草节为粗末，只作一服，用酒二盏，煎耗半碗，去渣，入蜜一大匙和匀。每用酒八分盏，车螯末二钱，腻粉少许，调匀，空心温服。取下恶物黄涎为效。以上诸方，宣利拔毒之药，可斟量轻重而用之，万不失一。

[Attached Discussion]
The syndrome of carbuncle and ulcer accompanied by vexation and thirst is caused by heat qi scorching the five zang organs, leading to a deficiency of body fluids internally. When Ying (Nutritive) and Wei (Defensive) Qi and Blood rot and transform into pus and blood, body fluids must be consumed. Once body fluids are depleted, heat qi becomes more prosperous, causing internal vexation of the Heart Spirit, thereby inducing continuous drinking. However, if vomiting, hiccups, or diarrhea occur, it is due to deficient-heat in the five zang organs; excessive water intake overwhelms the insufficient Qi, causing Qi rebellion upwards leading to vomiting and hiccups, while unstable intestines and stomach lead to diarrhea. This belongs to malignant syndromes of carbuncles and ulcers.
Patients suffering from ulcer diseases often, after appearing to recover, suddenly develop thirst that proves untreatable, with eight or nine out of ten cases resulting in death. If the ulcer disease is about to heal but thirst has already appeared, one should immediately take Jiaban Bawei Wan (Modified Eight-Ingredient Pill with Rehmannia). If the disease appears stable but thirst symptoms have not yet manifested, one should also take this medicine in advance to prevent its occurrence. If the disease form has already appeared, sudden treatment is difficult. After carbuncles and ulcers, tonic medicines should be taken; however, if harsh tonics are used, fever will result. Moreover, after recovering from ulcer diseases, patients often transition into thirst syndromes which are difficult to treat. One should take Jiaban Bawei Wan in advance. If taken for a long time, one will never suffer from thirst again, and Qi and Blood will become stronger. For those who have not yet developed ulcers, or who previously had thirst symptoms, they should also take this medicine. Once the thirst is stabilized, the ulcer will not develop.
When carbuncles and ulcers generate heat and induce thirst, and toxic factors are vigorous, one should urgently take Shenxian Zhuidu Wan (Immortal's Poison-Chasing Pill), taking one dose daily to expel evil toxins. Subsequently, Qing Shan Tang (Clear Chest Decoction), Wan Quan San (Perfect Safety Powder), Wuxiang Lianqiao Tang (Five-Spice Forsythia Decoction), Liuwei Che'ao San (Six-Ingredient Tridacna Powder), and Qianjin Loulu Tang (Thousand-Gold Cuscuta Decoction) can be selected. If diarrhea occurs followed by persistent thirst, use Shengjin Buqi Michuan Jinfen San (Secret Golden Powder for Generating Fluids and Tonifying Qi), Renshen Huangqi San (Ginseng and Astragalus Powder), or Neibu San (Internal Tonic Powder). Once body fluids are generated and Qi and Blood are substantial, thirst will stop naturally.

Someone suffered from ulcer disease, developed thirst before healing, drinking several sheng of water a day. Physicians used Mugua (Chaenomelis Fructus), Zisu (Perillae Folium), Wumei (Mume Fructus), Renshen (Ginseng Radix), Fuling (Polyporus), Baiyaojian (Myrobalan) etc., fluids-generating and thirst-stopping medicines. Long-term use worsened thirst with no effect after days. I used this medicine; thirst stopped in three days. Long-term use not only prevented thirst but strengthened Qi and Blood, doubled appetite, and restored vigor beyond youth. Another scholar suffered from thirst for years without relief; recovered in less than half a year with this. Why? The disease originated from Kidney Water exhaustion, unable to moisten upwards, causing Heart Fire to flare up without intersection, boiling and generating thirst. Physicians mistakenly used Spleen-awakening and fluid-generating medicines. Now, Bawei Wan lowers Heart Fire and generates Kidney Water, stopping thirst naturally. Zhen Bei Wuweizi is most effective, generating Kidney Water and balancing/descending Heart Qi. If thirst has already appeared, take Jiaban Bawei Wan immediately; if stable but no thirst, take in advance to prevent. If disease form appears, sudden cure is hard. Post-carbuncle/ulcer, tonics are needed, but harsh tonics cause fever. After recovery, patients often develop untreatable thirst. Preemptively take Jiaban Bawei Wan. Long-term use prevents thirst and strengthens Qi/Blood. For those not yet having ulcers or with prior thirst, taking this stabilizes thirst and prevents ulcers.
