当痘疹在喉部聚集时，称为“锁项”，若毒邪结聚于咽喉，性命必难保全；此时声音嘶哑、呛咳、饮食难进，采用清金攻毒的方法是最好的治疗。
【注】颈项是连接咽喉的通道。此处痘疹密集聚集，称为“锁项”。如果不紧急治疗，等到毒邪攻冲咽喉，必然引发肿痛，导致声音嘶哑、呛咳，汤水难以咽下，多数会导致死亡。急需使用清金攻毒饮，或许还有一线生机。

大黄 山楂 蝉蜕 山豆根
引药加灯心草，用水煎服。

两肩上的痘疹连成一片，上下阻塞，毒邪难以透发，应投用清热解毒汤对症施治；若伴有便秘，则以归宗汤为首选。
【注】两肩处的痘疹粘连聚集，颜色赤紫且滞涩晦暗，称为“披肩”。这是毒气不畅，上下阻塞所致，以清热解毒汤为主治。大便秘结者，以归宗汤主治。
背间发出的痘疹不宜过多，如果遇到聚集在一起，性命就会蹉跎（有生命危险）。根部松散的可用燕脂膏外贴，根部紧硬的必胜汤可以救活。
【注】大凡毒邪发于背部，多关乎生死，至于出痘，更贵在稀疏。如果背部痘疹聚集粘连，称为“聚背”。同时也应当辨别根脚的紧与松。根部松散的，说明毒邪尚在活动，内服松肌通圣散，外用燕脂膏贴敷；根部紧硬者，是因为毒邪固结、血液凝滞，急用必胜汤治疗，但这也是死中求活的一种方法罢了。
When pustules gather at the throat, it is named "Locking of the Neck" (Suo Xiang). If toxic heat knots in the pharynx and larynx, life is inevitably difficult to save. Symptoms include hoarseness, choking cough, and difficulty swallowing food. Clearing Metal (Lung) and attacking toxicity is the best decoction.
[Note] The neck and nape are the passages connecting to the pharynx and larynx. When pustules here gather densely, it is called "Locking of the Neck." If not treated urgently, when toxic heat attacks the pharynx and larynx, swelling and pain will inevitably occur, leading to hoarseness, choking cough, and inability to swallow liquids or solids, often resulting in death. Urgently use Qingjin Gongdu Yin (Clear Metal Attack Toxicity Decoction), perhaps there is a chance for survival.

Pustules on both shoulders gather into clumps, blocking up and down, making it difficult for toxic heat to vent outward. One should administer Qingre Jiedu Tang (Clear Heat Detoxify Decoction) according to the syndrome. If constipation is present, Guizong Tang is the primary choice.
[Note] Pustules on both shoulders adhere and cluster together, appearing red-purple, stagnant, and dull. This is named "Draping Shoulders" (Pi Jian). This indicates that toxic qi is not loose, causing blockage above and below. Treat primarily with Qingre Jiedu Tang (Clear Heat Detoxify Decoction). For severe constipation, treat with Guizong Tang.
Backrest (Bei Jian)
Pustules appearing on the back should not be numerous. If they encounter clustering, life is jeopardized. If the root is loose, apply Yanzhi Gao (Carmine Paste); if tight and hard, Bisheng Tang can save life.
[Note] Generally, when toxic heat erupts on the back, it concerns life and death. Regarding the eruption of pustules, sparsity is highly valued. If pustules on the back cluster and adhere, it is named "Gathering on the Back" (Ju Bei). One must also distinguish whether the root base is loose or tight. If the root is loose, the toxic heat is still active; internally administer Songji Tongsheng San (Loosen Muscle Pass the Holy Powder), and externally apply Yanzhi Gao. If the root is tight and hard, it is due to toxic heat imprisonment and blood coagulation; urgently use Bisheng Tang (Invincible Decoction) for treatment. However, this is merely one method of seeking life amidst death.
