面部五脏色诊图
面色青属于肝脏，主病惊风。
面色赤属于心脏，主病热盛。
面色黄属于脾脏，主病疳积（小儿因脾胃虚弱、饮食不节导致的慢性营养不良及积聚病症）。
面色白属于肺脏，主病虚寒。
面色黑属于肾脏，主病恶候（危重征象）。
四时面色顺逆规律：春季肝木应青色，夏季心火应赤色，秋季肺金应白色，冬季肾水应黑色，各主七十二日；四季之末月（每季最后一个月）后各十八日由脾土主事，黄色为顺。若春季见白色、夏季见黑色、秋季见赤色、冬季见黄色，或四季之末月见青色，均为逆证（病情加重或不合时令的凶兆）。
总论主病规律：面色赤，主热盛；面赤而唇青，主伤寒；面色青，主惊风；面色白，主吐泻；面色黄，主积滞或疟疾发作；面色黑，主危重征象。
初生至半岁婴儿，
虎口指纹尚未形成。
通过观察额头判断寒热，
并结合面色来察知病情。
婴幼儿从出生到半周岁，通过观察额头至眉际部位来判断病因，医生用三指横排定位，头部左侧需对应右手脉纹进行求索。若是伤寒所致，三指均显热象；食积、咳嗽、痰多、惊风，则中指显热；三指皆冷则为吐泻；中指显热且腹部胀满不适，为腹中积热。
初位风关出现指纹，易治；
中位气关出现指纹，病势深入；
末位命关出现指纹，病势危重。
若三关指纹直透指尖，难以救治。
红色，主伤寒；浅红色，主内热吐泻；紫色，主风热；青色，主惊；白色，主疳病；黄色，主脾积；青色与紫色各半，主惊积、风热。青紫黑混杂且纹路杂乱者极重，纯黑色者不治。
鱼刺形指纹，主惊风、痰热。
悬针形指纹，主伤风、泄泻、积热。
水字形指纹，主食积、咳嗽、惊疳。
乙字形指纹，主疳病、惊风。
环形指纹，主疳积、呕吐逆反。
乱纹形指纹，主虫积。
虫形指纹，主疳虫、大肠秽浊积滞。
珠形指纹，主死亡。
Facial Five-Organ Color Diagnosis Diagram
A greenish complexion corresponds to the Liver (Gan), indicating diseases such as convulsions and wind-stroke (Jing Feng).
A reddish complexion corresponds to the Heart (Xin), indicating excessive heat (Re Sheng).
A yellowish complexion corresponds to the Spleen (Pi), indicating infantile malnutrition and accumulation disorders (Gan Ji).
A whitish complexion corresponds to the Lung (Fei), indicating deficiency-cold (Xu Han).
A blackish complexion corresponds to the Kidney (Shen), indicating ominous prognoses or critical conditions (E Hou).
Regularity and irregularity of facial colors in the four seasons: In spring, Liver Wood should be green; in summer, Heart Fire should be red; in autumn, Lung Metal should be white; in winter, Kidney Water should be black. Each organ governs for 72 days. For the last 18 days of each season's final month, Spleen Earth governs, with yellow being the favorable color. Conversely, seeing white in spring, black in summer, red in autumn, yellow in winter, or green during the final months of each season indicates an unfavorable prognosis (Ni).
General discussion on main diseases: Redness indicates excessive heat; a red face with cyanotic lips indicates Cold Damage (Shang Han); greenness indicates convulsions and wind-stroke; whiteness indicates vomiting and diarrhea; yellowness indicates accumulation or malaria; blackness indicates a critical condition.
From birth until six months of age,
the fingerprint patterns at the Tiger's Mouth are not yet formed.
The forehead is observed to determine cold and heat,
combined with facial color to diagnose illness.
For infants from birth to half a year old, the cause is determined by observing the area from the forehead to the eyebrows. Physicians place three fingers horizontally to locate the pattern. The left side of the head requires examination using the right hand. If it is due to Cold Damage, all three segments show heat signs; if there is food retention, cough, phlegm, or convulsions, the middle segment shows heat; if all three segments are cold, it indicates vomiting and diarrhea; if the middle segment shows heat accompanied by abdominal distension and discomfort, it indicates accumulation of heat in the abdomen.
When the fingerprint appears at the initial Wind Gate (Feng Guan), the disease is easy to treat;
when it appears at the middle Qi Gate (Qi Guan), the disease has deepened;
when it appears at the terminal Life Gate (Ming Guan), the disease is critical.
If the fingerprint penetrates straight through all three gates to the fingertip, it is difficult to save.
Red indicates Cold Damage; light red indicates internal heat with vomiting and diarrhea; purple indicates wind-heat; green indicates fright/convulsions; white indicates infantile malnutrition (Gan); yellow indicates spleen accumulation; equal parts of green and purple indicate fright-accumulation and wind-heat. Mixed green, purple, and black patterns that are chaotic indicate extreme severity, while pure black indicates incurability.
Fish-bone shape indicates convulsions and wind-stroke, and phlegm-heat.
Hanging needle shape indicates wind-cold injury, diarrhea, and accumulated heat.
Water character shape indicates food retention, cough, and fright-infantile malnutrition.
Yi-character shape indicates infantile malnutrition and convulsions and wind-stroke.
Ring shape indicates infantile malnutrition-accumulation and vomiting/regurgitation.
Chaotic pattern shape indicates parasitic infestation.
Worm shape indicates parasitic infantile malnutrition and filth accumulation in the large intestine.
Pearl shape indicates death.
