心腹绞绞大痛，或如板硬，或如绳缚，或如筋吊，或如锥触，或如刀割，痛极难忍。轻者，亦微微绞痛，胀闷非常，
放痧可愈。若不愈，必审脉症何因，辨暑秽、食积、痰血所阻施治，须连进数服，俟其少安，方可渐为调理。此症
世多放痧数次不愈，听命于天，不肯服药，遂至痧毒攻坏脏腑，惟死而已，惜哉！
治验∶
一廉齐朱先生夫人，夏月痧痛危急，刮痧放痧不愈。更易三医莫敢任事，举家无措。宋臣王兄邀余往视，六脉微伏，

心腹部出现绞拧样剧烈疼痛，有的感觉像木板一样坚硬，有的像被绳子捆绑，有的像筋脉被吊拉，有的像被锥子刺扎，有的像被刀割一样，疼痛剧烈难以忍受。病情较轻的，也有轻微的绞拧痛，胀闷感非常严重，通过放痧疗法可以治愈。如果放痧后不愈，必须仔细审查脉象和症状以明确病因，辨别是由暑湿秽浊之气、饮食积滞还是痰瘀阻滞所致，从而施以治疗，需要连续服用几剂药物，等到病情稍微缓解后，才可以逐渐进行调理。这种病症在世间很多人放痧数次后仍不愈，便听天由命，不肯服药，导致痧毒攻坏脏腑，最终只有死亡一途，真是可惜啊！
医案记录：
一位姓朱的先生（廉齐）的夫人，夏季时痧症绞痛危急，刮痧和放痧治疗后未愈。更换了三位医生都不敢接手，全家束手无策。宋臣王的兄长邀请我去诊治，六部脉象微弱隐伏，治疗后未愈，当晚绞痛如前。第二天早晨，贤郎宋伊芳的兄长再次邀请我，右手脉象伏匿，又放痧三十二针并配合刮痧完毕，使用宝花散、沉香丸，用清茶稍冷却后送服，同时配合使用具有散痧解毒、活血顺气功效的药剂。亲友还担心无法救治，留我等候饭后，坦君和夏王兄说：“睡着了，怎么样？”我说：“睡着则神情已安定，气血逐渐调和，大概将要安睡痊愈了。”过了一天，果然痊愈。
一位贾公清作泻腹痛，疼痛如绳子绞拧。请我诊治，脉象洪大数实，放痧后未愈，使用乌药顺气汤加大黄，通下积滞而痊愈。
一位故友麓庵朱兄的夫人，是公范的母亲。口吐痰涎，腹中绞痛，医治沉重，六日未愈。请我诊察，左脉微弱隐伏。我说：“这是痧症。”令其刮痧，稍见缓解，但患者不服药。次日，再次昏沉剧痛，全家惊慌，亲戚挤满家门。再次请我诊治，针刺左手食指指尖一针，放出毒血，并令其刮痧，仍未愈。使用降香桃花散冲砂仁汤，稍冷却后送服，同时配合防风散痧汤加入山豆根、茜草、丹参、金银花、山楂、莱菔子，稍冷却服用而安宁。
一位何君雅的长子正月里发生盘肠绞痛。请我诊治，脉象伏匿，令其刮痧，使用沉香郁金散、棱术汤，冷冻后饮用，稍见好转。黄昏时再次绞痛非常厉害，叫喊不停。再次邀请我，使用细辛大黄丸，用清茶微冷冻后送服，又用紫朴汤而痊愈。
The heart and abdomen experience twisting, severe pain, sometimes feeling as hard as a board, as if bound by a rope, as if tendons are being pulled, as if pierced by an awl, or as if cut by a knife; the pain is extreme and unbearable. In mild cases, there is also slight twisting pain with severe distension and stifling sensation, which can be cured by bloodletting (Fangsha). If it does not resolve after bloodletting, one must carefully examine the pulse and symptoms to determine the cause, distinguishing whether it is obstructed by summerheat and turbid qi, food stagnation, or phlegm and blood stasis, and then apply treatment. Several doses must be taken continuously until the condition slightly stabilizes before gradual regulation can begin. In this condition, many people in the world undergo bloodletting several times without success, resign themselves to fate, refuse to take medicine, and thus the sha toxin attacks and damages the zang-fu organs, leading only to death. What a pity!
Clinical Cases:
The wife of Mr. Lianqi Zhu suffered from critical sha-induced abdominal cramping in summer. Gua Sha and bloodletting failed to cure her. Three other physicians were too afraid to take responsibility, leaving the family helpless. Brother Wang Songchen invited me to examine her. The six pulses were faint and hidden. After treatment, she did not improve, and that night the cramping pain returned as before. The next morning, Brother Song Yifang, the son of the virtuous gentleman, invited me again. The right hand pulse was hidden. I performed bloodletting with thirty-two needles combined with Gua Sha. Then, I administered Baohua San (Precious Flower Powder) and Chenxiang Wan (Agarwood Pill), given with clear tea slightly cooled. Simultaneously, I prescribed agents for dispersing sha, detoxifying, invigorating blood, and regulating qi. Relatives still feared there was no hope for rescue and asked me to stay until after lunch. Tan Jun and Brother Xia Wang said, "She has fallen asleep, how is she?" I replied, "Sleeping indicates that the spirit has stabilized and qi and blood are harmonizing; she will likely rest peacefully." The following day, she recovered.
Mr. Jia Qing experienced diarrhea and abdominal pain resembling rope-like twisting. He invited me to treat him. The pulse was surging, rapid, and excess. Bloodletting failed to cure him. I used Wuyao Shunqi Tang (Aucklandia Decoction to Regulate Qi) with added Dahuang (Rhubarb Rhizome), which purged the stagnation and led to recovery.
The wife of my old friend Brother Zhulan An, who was Mother Gongfan, vomited phlegm and saliva and suffered from abdominal cramping. Medical treatment was heavy-handed, and she did not recover after six days. I was invited to diagnose her; the left pulse was faint and hidden. I said, "This is sha." I instructed her to undergo Gua Sha, which provided slight relief, but she refused medication. The next day, she became comatose with severe pain again. The whole family panicked, and relatives filled the house. I was invited again. I pricked one needle at the tip of the left middle finger to release toxic blood, and instructed her to undergo Gua Sha. It did not resolve. I used Jiangxiao Taohua San (Costus and Peach Blossom Powder) mixed with Amomum Villosum Soup, administered slightly cooled. Simultaneously, I used Fangfeng San Sha Tang (Saposhnikovia Decoction to Disperse Sha) added with Dougen (Millettiae Radix), Qiancao (Rubia Cordifolia Root), Danshen (Salvia Miltiorrhiza Root), Jinyinhua (Lonicerae Flos), Shanzha (Crataegi Fructus), and Bolu Zi (Brassicae Semens), administered slightly cooled, which brought peace.
Young Master Ya, son of Gentleman He, suffered from intestinal colic in the first lunar month. He invited me to treat him. The pulse was hidden. I instructed him to undergo Gua Sha and used Chenxiang Yujin San (Agarwood and Turmeric Powder) and Lengzhu Tang (Curcuma and Bitter Orange Decoction), administered chilled. He improved slightly. At dusk, the cramping pain returned severely, and he cried out incessantly. He invited me again. I used Xixin Dahuang Wan (Asarum and Rhubarb Pill), administered with clear tea slightly chilled. He then recovered using Zipu Tang (Magnolia Bark Decoction).
