陈实功说：阴户突然肿胀突起并伴有疼痛，这是由于劳损伤及血分与风邪，导致湿火下注所致。（出自《外科正宗》）
他又说：也有阴户半边疼痛的情况。
他还说：治疗应当使用四物汤（由当归、川芎、白芍、熟地黄组成的补血基础方），加入牡丹皮、泽泻、柴胡、天花粉。
朱丹溪说：阴户突然肿胀且疼痛的，称为“阴肿”，又叫做“蚌疽”。这是由劳损伤及血分引起的，适宜用四物汤加牡丹皮、泽泻、柴胡、天花粉煎服；外用艾叶一两、防风六钱、大戟五钱煎汤进行熏洗。
冯鲁瞻说：妇女阴户肿胀，有的因为胞络虚损，风冷之邪客居其中，与气血相搏结而导致肿胀；有的因为郁怒伤损肝脾；有的因为房事过度导致湿热下注；有的因为性欲旺盛而热盛生虫，从而导致肿胀和瘙痒同时发作。这些情况都应当禁止房事并迅速治疗，否则邪气逐渐强盛，阴户会溃烂而无法愈合。如果气血虚弱，应用补中益气汤（具有补中益气、升阳举陷功效的方剂）来提升阳气；如果是肝经湿热，应用龙胆泻肝汤（清泻肝胆实火、清利肝经湿热的方剂）来渗湿清热；如果是肝脾郁怒导致元气下陷、湿热壅滞，早晨服用归脾汤（益气补血、健脾养心的方剂）加升麻、柴胡，以解郁结、补脾气；晚上服用加味逍遥散（疏肝解郁、养血调经的方剂），以清肝火、生肝血、除热去湿。
阴户疼痛：取盐三合，炒热后用布包裹熨烫患处，疼痛立即停止。
妇人阴中肿痛以及生疮。（出自《济生方》）
黄连（用酒炒制，二钱）、龙胆草（用酒清洗）、小柴胡（去掉芦头，各一钱）、青皮（三分）。水煎后服用。如果肿胀严重，增加大黄一钱。
子宫剧烈疼痛难以忍受。（出自《医宗入门》）
五倍子、白矾（各等份）。煎汤熏洗，或者研成粉末撒敷患处。
产后阴户两侧肿痛，手足不能舒展伸展。（出自《医宗入门》）使用四季葱与乳香末一起捣碎成饼状，放置在阴户两侧，过一会儿自然痊愈。
产门僵硬如石头，衣物若触碰，疼痛难以忍受。
青鱼胆（七个，或者用鲫鱼胆七个也可以）、丝绵（三钱，烧至存性即保留药性但去除原形）。将胆汁调匀后，用鸭毛扫涂在患处，其硬度不超过半个时辰（一小时），就会变软。
Chen Shigong stated: Sudden swelling and protrusion of the yin orifice accompanied by pain is caused by labor injuring the blood and wind, with damp-heat flowing downward. (From *Zhengzong*)
He also said: There are cases where only half of the yin orifice is painful.
He further stated: Treatment should involve Siwu Tang (Four Substances Decoction) added with Mudanpi (Moutan Cortex), Zexie (Alisma Rhizome), Chaihu (Bupleuri Radix), and Huafen (Trichosanthis Radix).
Zhu Danxi stated: When the yin orifice suddenly swells and becomes painful, it is named Yinzhong (Yin Swelling), also known as Bengju (Clam Carbuncle). This results from labor injuring the blood aspect. It is suitable to take Siwu Tang (Four Substances Decoction) added with Mudanpi (Moutan Cortex), Zexie (Alisma Rhizome), Chaihu (Bupleuri Radix), and Tianhuafen (Trichosanthis Radix) decocted in water. Externally, use Aiye (Artemisiae Argyi Folium) 1 liang, Fangfeng (Saposhnikoviae Radix) 6 qian, and Daji (Euphorbiae Pekinensis Radix) 5 qian to decoct a soup for fumigation.
Feng Luzhan stated: Women's yin swelling can be due to deficiency and damage of the uterine collaterals, where wind-cold pathogens lodge and contend with qi and blood causing swelling; or due to depression and anger injuring the Liver and Spleen; or due to excessive sexual activity leading to damp-heat flowing downward; or due to intense desire generating heat that breeds parasites, resulting in simultaneous swelling and itching. All these conditions require abstaining from sexual intercourse and prompt treatment; otherwise, pathogenic factors will gradually strengthen, leading to ulceration of the yin orifice that fails to heal. If qi and blood are deficient, Buyi Yiqi Tang (Tonify the Middle and Augment the Qi Decoction) should be used to lift and raise yang. If there is damp-heat in the Liver channel, Longdan Xiegan Tang (Gentian Liver-Draining Decoction) should be used to drain dampness and clear heat. If Liver-Spleen depression and anger cause sinking of primal qi and stagnation of damp-heat, Guipi Tang (Restore the Spleen Decoction) added with Shengma (Cimicifugae Rhizoma) and Chaihu (Bupleuri Radix) should be taken in the morning to resolve depression and tonify Spleen qi. Jiawei Xiaoyao San (Modified Free and Easy Wanderer Powder) should be taken in the evening to clear Liver fire, generate Liver blood, remove heat, and eliminate dampness.
Pain in the yin orifice: Take 3 he of salt, stir-fry until hot, wrap in cloth, and apply as a compress to stop pain immediately.
Swelling, pain, and sores in the female yin orifice. (From *Jisheng*)
Huanglian (Stir-fried with wine, 2 qian), Longdancao (Rinsed with wine), Xiao Chaihu (Decoction without the rush pith, 1 qian each), Qingpi (Citri Reticulatae Pericarpium Viride, 0.3 qian). Decoct in water and take orally. If swelling is severe, add Dahuang (Rhei Radix et Rhizoma) 1 qian.
Severe uterine pain unbearable to endure. (From *Rumen*)
Wubeizi (Galla Chinensis), Baijian (Alumen Vitriol) (equal parts). Decoct for fumigation and washing, or grind into powder and sprinkle on the affected area.
Swelling and pain on both sides of the yin orifice after childbirth, with inability to extend hands and feet. (From *Rumen*) Use Congjiu (Allii Tuberosi Bulbus) mixed with Rushiang (Olibanum) powder, pound into a cake, and place on both sides of the yin orifice; it will heal spontaneously after some time.
Hardness of the birth canal like stone, intolerable pain upon touching with clothing.
Qingyu dan (Gallus Bladder of Grass Carp, 7 pieces, or alternatively 7 Gallbladders of Crucian Carp) Simian (Silk floss, 3 qian, burned to retain efficacy). Mix evenly with bile, then apply using a duck feather brush. The hardness will soften within half an hour (one hour).
Swelling and pain of the yin orifice:
Daji (Euphorbiae Pekinensis Radix, 1 liang), Fangfeng (Saposhnikoviae Radix, 2 liang), Aiye (Artemisiae Argyi Folium, 5 qian). Decoct in water, wash while hot avoiding wind, and externally apply Grass Carp bile.
