所谓“气症”，是指因愤怒不止而引发的病症。当七情（喜、怒、忧、思、悲、恐、惊）受到触动时，该如何治疗？古人创制了七气汤，其中厚朴和陈皮是主要的药物。
古方四七汤，用于治疗由喜、怒、悲、思、忧、恐、惊这七种情绪之气凝结而成的痰涎。其症状表现为痰涎状如破旧的棉絮，或像梅核一样卡在喉咙中，咳不出来也咽不下去；或者胃脘部痞塞胀满；或者痰涎壅盛，导致上气喘促结聚；或者痰饮阻滞中焦，引起呕吐逆气、恶心。
处方：半夏五两，茯苓四两，厚朴三两，紫苏二两。
煎服法：加生姜、大枣煎服。若为梅核气，可加桔梗、枳实（另一版本加槟榔）；若因思虑过度导致小便白浊，此方可配合青州白丸子使用。
分心气饮，用于治疗抑郁之气留滞不散引起的病症。症状包括胸膈痞塞胀闷，胁肋部虚胀，嗳气吞酸，恶心头晕，口苦舌干，饮食减少，大肠虚秘等证候。
处方：紫苏二两，青皮、陈皮、大腹皮、桑白皮、羌活各五钱，半夏、木通各三钱半，赤芍三钱，官桂、甘草各二钱半。
煎服法：分为五剂，加生姜、大枣、灯心草煎服。若性情急躁，加柴胡；易怒，加黄芩；食欲少，加砂仁、神曲；咳嗽，加桔梗、半夏；痞塞严重，加枳实、香附；三焦不和，加乌药；气机闭塞，加莱菔子、枳壳；上焦热盛，加黄芩；下焦热盛，加栀子；翻胃，加沉香（磨汁服用）；水气导致面部浮肿，加猪苓、泽泻、车前子、木瓜、葶苈子、麦冬；气结成块，加三棱、莪术。
余论
轩辕黄帝与岐伯论述道，各种疼痛多因气机失调所致，因此有“九气”的说法。其言论说：“喜则气缓，怒则气上，悲则气消，思则气结……”（原文此处有缺漏及错简，依中医理论补全意旨）。
The term "Qi Syndrome" refers to conditions induced by unceasing anger. When the Seven Emotions (Joy, Anger, Worry, Thought, Sorrow, Fear, Fright) are triggered, how should they be treated? The ancients formulated Qiqi Tang (Seven Qi Decoction), with Houpo (Magnolia Bark) and Chenpi (Aged Tangerine Peel) as the primary ingredients.
The ancient formula Siqi Tang (Four Seven Decoction) is used to treat phlegm-drool formed by the condensation of Qi from the seven emotions: Joy, Anger, Worry, Thought, Sorrow, Fear, and Fright. The symptoms manifest as phlegm resembling torn cotton or a plum-pit sensation in the throat (Plum-Pit Qi), which cannot be expectorated nor swallowed; or epigastric fullness and obstruction; or excessive phlegm accumulation causing upper body wheezing and congestion; or fluid retention obstructing the middle jiao, leading to vomiting, regurgitation, and nausea.
Prescription: Banxia (Pinellia Rhizome) 5 liang, Fuling (Poria) 4 liang, Houpo (Magnolia Bark) 3 liang, Zisu (Perilla Leaf) 2 liang.
Decoction method: Decoct with Shengjiang (Fresh Ginger) and Dazao (Jujube). For Plum-Pit Qi, add Jiegeng (Platycodon Root) and Zhishi (Immature Bitter Orange) (another version adds Binglang (Areca Seed)); for white turbid urine caused by excessive thought, this formula may be used in conjunction with Qingzhou Bai Wanzi (Qingzhou White Pills).
Fenxin Qi Yin (Divided Heart Qi Drink) treats disorders caused by stagnant Qi due to depression. Symptoms include chest and diaphragm fullness and oppression, distension in the hypochondrium, belching with acid reflux, nausea, dizziness, bitter taste in the mouth, dry tongue, reduced appetite, and constipation due to intestinal deficiency.
Prescription: Zisu (Perilla Leaf) 2 liang, Qingpi (Green Tangerine Peel), Chenpi (Aged Tangerine Peel), Dafupi (Areca Pericarpium), Sangbaipi (Mulberry Root Bark), Qianghuo (Notopterygium Rhizome) each 5 qian; Banxia (Pinellia Rhizome), Mutong (Akebia Caulis) each 3.5 qian; Chishao (Red Peony Root) 3 qian; Guanzi Gui (Cinnamon Twig), Gancao (Licorice Root) each 2.5 qian.
Decoction method: Divide into five doses, decoct with Shengjiang (Fresh Ginger), Dazao (Jujube), and Dengxincao (Juncus Effusus). If irritable, add Chaihu (Bupleurum Root); if prone to anger, add Huangqin (Scutellaria Root); if poor appetite, add Sharen (Amomum Fruit) and Shenqu (Medicated Leaven); if coughing, add Jiegeng (Platycodon Root) and Banxia (Pinellia Rhizome); if severe obstruction, add Zhishi (Immature Bitter Orange) and Xiangfu (Cyperus Rhizome); if Sanjiao (Triple Burner) disharmony, add Wuyao (Lindera Root); if Qi closure, add Laifuzi (Radish Seed) and Zhike (Bitter Orange); if excess heat in the Upper Jiao, add Huangqin (Scutellaria Root); if excess heat in the Lower Jiao, add Zhizi (Gardenia Fruit); for Fanwei (Regurgitation/Vomiting), add Chenxiang (Aquilaria Wood) (taken as ground powder); for facial edema due to water-Qi, add Zhuling (Polyporus), Zexie (Alisma Rhizome), Cheqian (Plantago Seed), Mugua (Chaenomeles Fruit), Tinglizi (Descurainia Seed), and Maidong (Ophiopogon Tuber); if Qi forms masses, add Sanleng (Sparganium Rhizome) and Ezhu (Curcuma Rhizome).
Supplementary Discussion
Xuanyuan (Yellow Emperor) and Qibo discussed that various pains are primarily due to Qi, thus giving rise to the theory of "Nine Qi." Their statement says: "Joy causes Qi to slacken, Anger causes Qi to ascend, Sorrow causes Qi to dissipate, Thought causes Qi to knot..." (Note: The original text contains lacunae and textual errors here; the meaning is inferred based on TCM theory).
