年长出痘总不宜，真阴亏损元气虚，一逢出痘毒冲炽，水不胜火岂能支，夹热参麦
清补剂，攻浆参归鹿茸宜。
【注】男子自十六岁后，皆谓之年长。嗜欲情开，元精走泄，又遇痘毒之火冲炽，则
真阴亏损。水虚不能制火。故每至行浆之际，口渴心烦，鼻衄咽痛，不能成脓、结痂者有
之。治者不可妄用寒凉。五六日前，只宜参麦清补汤调治，至七八日如脓浆不行，急宜
攻浆，以参归鹿茸汤内调鸡冠血酒治之。但得浆行，庶可无虞。

妇女发痘遇经行，当期毒解不须惊，非期凉血解毒治，过期四物解毒从，去血过多
气血弱，十全大补服通灵。
【注】女子出痘，或遇经行，须问其是期非期。如期而出者，则毒热随血解去，不须
施治，其证自愈。若非期而至者，此毒火内扰于胞中，致血妄行，以凉血解毒汤治之；若
过期不止，乃毒热乘入血室，以四物解毒汤加元参、甘草主之。若行浆时去血过多，此
气血虚弱不能统摄也，急用十全大补汤。治若稍缓，痘浆不行，则无救矣。

男子在成年后出痘总体是不适宜的，这是因为真阴亏损且元气虚弱。一旦遇到痘毒炽盛冲逆，肾水不能制约心火，身体怎能承受得住？此时若夹杂热象，宜用参麦清补剂；若要促进脓浆生成，则宜用参归鹿茸汤。
【注】男子自十六岁以后，都称为年长。由于嗜欲情志开启，元精耗泄，再加上痘毒之火炽盛冲逆，导致真阴亏损。肾水虚弱无法制约心火。因此每到行浆阶段，常出现口渴心烦、鼻出血、咽喉疼痛等症状，有的甚至不能化脓、结痂。治疗者不可妄用寒凉药物。发病五六日前，只适宜用参麦清补汤调理治疗；到了七八日如果脓浆不运行，急需促进脓浆生成，可用参归鹿茸汤内调鸡冠血酒来治疗。只要能让脓浆运行，才可以没有忧患。

妇女发痘遇到月经来潮，如果在预期日期，说明毒邪随经血解除，不必惊慌；如果不是预期日期，应用凉血解毒法治疗；如果过期不止，应从四物解毒汤入手。若失血过多导致气血虚弱，应服用十全大补汤以通达灵机。
【注】女子出痘，如果遇到月经来潮，必须询问其是否在预期日期。如果在预期日期而出，那么毒热会随血液排出而解除，不需要施治，病症自然痊愈。如果不是预期日期而至，这是毒火在内扰动胞宫，导致血液妄行，应用凉血解毒汤治疗；如果过期不止，是毒热侵入血室，应用四物解毒汤加玄参、甘草为主进行治疗。如果在行浆时失血过多，这是气血虚弱不能统摄血液，应急用十全大补汤。治疗如果稍有迟缓，痘浆不能运行，就无法挽救了。

It is generally inadvisable for adult men to develop smallpox, as their True Yin (Zhen Yin) is depleted and their Original Qi (Yuan Qi) is deficient. Once the toxic heat of the pox surges violently, the Water element cannot control Fire, making it impossible for the body to withstand it. If accompanied by heat, Shenmai Qingbu Tang (Ginseng and Ophiopogon Clearing and Tonifying Decoction) should be used; if the goal is to promote pus formation, Shenguilurong Tang (Ginseng, Angelica, and Deer Antler Decoction) is appropriate.
[Note] Men are considered adults from the age of sixteen onwards. Due to indulgence in desires and emotional arousal, Essence (Jing) is leaked. Coupled with the violent surge of toxic fire from the pox, True Yin becomes depleted. The deficiency of Water fails to control Fire. Therefore, during the stage of pus formation, symptoms such as thirst, vexation, epistaxis, and sore throat often occur, and some patients fail to suppurate or form scabs. Practitioners must not recklessly use cold and bitter drugs. In the first five to six days, only Shenmai Qingbu Tang should be used for regulation and treatment. By the seventh or eighth day, if pus does not form, urgent measures to promote pus formation are required, using Shenguilurong Tang mixed with Ji Guan Xue Jiu (Rooster Comb Blood Wine). As long as pus formation proceeds, there will be no cause for alarm.

Add fresh ginger as a guide, decoct in water, and take orally.
[Prescription Verse] Shenmai Qingbu uses Dang Gui and Chuan Xiong, Hua Fen, Bai Shao, and Sheng Di together; Ginseng, Qian Hu, Jie Geng, and Niu Bang Zi, along with Hong Hua, Shan Zha, and Mai Dong.

When women develop smallpox and menstruation occurs simultaneously, if it happens at the expected time, the toxin resolves naturally, and there is no need for alarm. If it occurs unexpectedly, treat with cooling blood and detoxifying methods; if it persists beyond the expected period, follow the formula Siwu Jiedu Tang. If excessive blood loss leads to Qi and Blood deficiency, administer Shiquan Dabu Tang to restore vitality.
[Note] When women develop smallpox and experience menstruation, one must determine whether it is at the expected time. If it occurs at the expected time, the toxic heat is expelled with the menstrual blood, requiring no treatment, and the condition heals spontaneously. If it occurs unexpectedly, this indicates that toxic fire disturbs the uterus internally, causing reckless bleeding; treat with Liangxue Jiedu Tang (Cooling Blood and Detoxifying Decoction). If it persists beyond the expected period, the toxic heat has entered the Blood Chamber; treat primarily with Siwu Jiedu Tang plus Xuan Shen (Scrophulariae Radix) and Gan Cao (Glycyrrhizae Radix et Rhizoma). If excessive blood loss occurs during the pus formation stage, this indicates that Qi and Blood are too weak to contain the blood; urgently administer Shiquan Dabu Tang (Great Ten Tonifying Decoction). If treatment is delayed even slightly, and pus fails to form, the condition becomes incurable.
