〔万〕凡痘疮轻者其本疏,其毒微,其证顺,自然易靥,无余毒也。重者其本密,其毒盛,其证险,自难
出难靥,有余毒也。逆者或伏,或倒陷,或倒靥,幸脾胃素强,调治又早,不至大困,亦作余毒。钱氏云∶
其病有三,一者疥,二者痈,三者
目赤。以证求之,尚不止此,亦有出已尽,发已透,靥已齐者,复作余毒,此由温补之过,饮食之失而得之。故
治痘后余毒,或补,或发散,或解利,要在分表里,论虚实,不可一概妄投汤剂也。
〔海〕 疮余毒,或肝虚入眼目。或肺虚为癣疥。或为痈疖,发在骨节,肾之虚也。发在肌肉、脾之虚也。
或在筋,或在头,或在面,或牙齿疳蚀,或咽喉肿痛,各随经而见,皆毒不散,蕴积而成。或病患始不早治,或
医者失治,遗于经络,其所由来,盖有自矣。宜服解毒等剂。
〔世〕痘毒攻脾则泄泻身浮,攻肝则眼生翳膜,攻心则烦躁啼哭,攻肾则耳疼脓聚,攻肺则咳嗽痰涎。
〔洁〕若已发后,有余毒未散,复有身热疮肿之类,当茶粉下解毒丸。
〔丹〕治小儿痘疮,余毒未散,食谷太早,补住毒瓦斯。

各等分,水煎服。
【痈疖】此由毒瓦斯留藏经络,故于肌肉虚处,或关节动摇处,红肿而成痈。又或既平之后,失于解利,
余毒大盛,外不得泄于皮肤,内不得入于脏腑,聚而不去,遂为之痈。如毒瓦斯浅者,止生结核、肿毒、疮疖
而已,甚者至头项胸胁手足肢节,尽 肿作痛,但发一二处,或根浅者可治。若流注起伏,根深蔓引者,小
则溃筋脱骨,必为残废之疾,甚则绵延日久而死。〔丹〕痘痈多是实毒血热成痈,分上下用药,一日不可
缓,成脓必用清热凉血为主,赤芍药、甘草节、连翘、桔梗之类,上引用升麻、葛根,下引用槟榔、牛膝,
更助以贝母、忍冬草、白芷、栝蒌,大便燥用大黄,寒热用芩、柏,此法累效。〔薛〕前证初起未成脓者,
用活命饮、隔蒜灸、治而消之。欲成脓者,用活命饮解而溃之。气血虚者,八珍汤(虚羸)实而溃之。虚
而不能敛者,托里散补而敛之。大凡发热肿痛,大便不结,用仙方活命饮及隔蒜灸法。大
便秘结,用仙方活命饮加大黄。大便已通,肿痛未退,再用活命饮一服,用托里散
补其元气。若发热倦怠,大便调和,用补中益气汤(虚热)未应,亦用隔蒜灸。若溃而发热口干,肢体倦怠,用东
垣圣愈汤。脓水淋漓,不时发热,用四君、参、 。若因乳母肝经血虚发热,用加味小柴胡汤(发热)。肝脾郁
怒发热,用加味归脾汤(惊悸)。膏粱浓味积热,用加味清胃散(齿)。如专与凉血,用败毒等药,复伤元气,
必致成者不能溃,溃者不能敛矣。〔万〕凡治痘痈,先看在何经络,分气血多少,用引经药,如太阳经羌活、
防风,阳明经升麻、白芷,少阳经柴胡,少阴经独活,太阴经防风,厥阴柴胡。若初红肿硬痛者,以针刺之,
口吮去恶血,以拔毒膏敷贴。气实能食,大便坚者,用排毒散疏利之。气虚食少者,用十宣散或流气饮。毒浅
而小者,只内服小柴胡加生地黄汤,外用拔毒膏贴之。此治肿疡之法也。若已成脓而未溃者,以铍针决去其脓,勿
使内溃。已溃者用十全大补汤(汗)主之。此治溃疡之法也。

〔万全〕凡是痘疮病情较轻的,其病根疏浅,毒邪微弱,证候顺遂,自然容易结痂愈合,没有余毒遗留。病情较重的,其病根深固,毒邪炽盛,证候险恶,自然难以透发、难以结痂,会有余毒遗留。逆证的,或者毒邪内伏,或者倒陷,或者倒靥(指痘疹未完全发出即回缩),幸好脾胃素来强健,调理治疗又及时,不至于陷入极度困顿,也会产生余毒。钱乙说:这类病症有三种表现,一是疥疮,二是痈肿,三是眼睛发红。根据症状推求,还不仅仅只有这些,也有痘疹已经出齐、发出透彻、结痂整齐的,却又出现余毒症状,这是由于过度温补、饮食不当而导致的。所以治疗痘后余毒,或采用补益法,或采用发散法,或采用通利解毒法,关键在于分辨表里、论述虚实,不可一概而论地盲目投药。
〔陈自明〕疮疡余毒,如果肝虚则侵入眼目;如果肺虚则形成癣疥;如果形成痈疖,发作在骨节处,是肾虚的表现;发作在肌肉处,是脾虚的表现;如果在筋脉、头部、面部,或者牙齿发生疳蚀,或者咽喉肿痛,都随经络显现,都是毒邪不散,蕴积而成。或者患者开始没有及时治疗,或者医生误治,导致毒邪遗留在经络中,其产生的原因,自有其根源。适宜服用解毒等方剂。
〔世医〕痘毒攻冲脾脏则导致泄泻、身体浮肿;攻冲肝脏则眼睛生翳膜;攻冲心脏则烦躁啼哭;攻冲肾脏则耳朵疼痛、脓液积聚;攻冲肺脏则咳嗽、痰涎增多。
〔李杲〕如果痘疹发出之后,有余毒未散,再次出现身体发热、疮肿等症状,应当用茶送服解毒丸。
〔朱震亨〕治疗小儿痘疮,余毒未散,进食谷物太早,补住了毒气。

以上各等分,用水煎煮服用。
【痈疖】这是由于毒气留藏在经络中,所以在肌肉虚弱之处,或者关节活动之处,红肿而形成痈。又或者在平复之后,失于通利解毒,余毒大盛,外不能发泄于皮肤,内不能进入脏腑,聚集而不消散,于是形成痈。如果毒气浅表的,只生成结核、肿毒、疮疖而已;严重的甚至到头颈胸胁手足肢节,全部肿胀疼痛,但只发作一两处的,或者根基浅的,可以治疗。如果流注起伏,根基深蔓延引的,轻则溃烂筋脉脱去骨头,必然成为残疾之疾,重则绵延日久致死。〔朱震亨〕痘痈多是实毒血热成痈,分上下部位用药,一天都不能拖延,成脓必须用清热凉血为主,如赤芍药、甘草节、连翘、桔梗之类,上焦引用升麻、葛根,下焦引用槟榔、牛膝,更辅助以贝母、忍冬草、白芷、栝蒌,大便干燥用大黄,寒热往来用黄芩、黄柏,此法多次见效。〔薛己〕前述证候初起未成脓的,用仙方活命饮、隔蒜灸法,治疗使其消散。想要成脓的,用仙方活命饮解表使其溃破。气血虚弱的,用八珍汤(针对虚羸)使其实而后溃破。虚弱而不能收敛的,用托里散补益而收敛。大凡发热肿痛,大便不结燥的,用仙方活命饮及隔蒜灸法。大便秘结的,用仙方活命饮加大黄。大便已通,肿痛未退的,再用仙方活命饮一服,用托里散补益元气。如果发热倦怠,大便调和的,用补中益气汤(针对虚热),无效,也用隔蒜灸。如果溃破后发热口干,肢体倦怠的,用东垣圣愈汤。脓水淋漓,不时发热的,用四君子汤加人参、黄芪。如果因乳母肝经血虚发热,用加味小柴胡汤(针对发热)。肝脾郁怒发热,用加味归脾汤(针对惊悸)。膏粱厚味积热,用加味清胃散(针对齿病)。如果专门使用凉血药,用败毒等药,反而损伤元气,必然导致未成的不能溃破,溃破的不能收敛。〔万全〕凡是治疗痘痈,先看发生在哪条经络,分辨气血多少,使用引经药,如太阳经用羌活、防风,阳明经用升麻、白芷,少阳经用柴胡,少阴经用独活,太阴经用防风,厥阴经用柴胡。如果初起红肿硬痛的,用针刺破,口吮去恶血,用拔毒膏敷贴。气实能食,大便坚硬的,用排毒散疏利之。气虚食少的,用十宣散或流气饮。毒浅而小的,只内服小柴胡加生地黄汤,外用拔毒膏贴之。这是治疗肿疡的方法。如果已成脓而未溃破的,用铍针决破排出脓液,不要使之内溃。已溃破的用十全大补汤(针对汗出)主治。这是治疗溃疡的方法。
仙方活命饮 治疗痘疔痘毒,以及一切疮毒,未成即消,已成即溃,这是消毒、败脓、止痛的神药。

按语:化毒丹,是降火凉血、解毒寒中之剂。消毒丸,是清热解毒、破血之剂。大概小儿脏腑脆嫩,元气易伤,何况痘后气血皆虚,怎能承受此类药剂?如果胃气一伤,则未成的不能消散,已成的不能腐溃,已溃的不能生肌,殊不知痘疮乃脏腑所发,遍身之血,皆化为脓,况且此方愈后患此症,乃是脾胃虚怯,肌肉消弱,营卫短涩所致,医者审慎。

[Wan Quan] For mild cases of smallpox, the root is shallow, the toxin is slight, and the syndrome is favorable, leading to natural scabbing and healing without residual toxins. For severe cases, the root is deep, the toxin is vigorous, and the syndrome is dangerous, making it difficult to erupt and scab, resulting in residual toxins. In adverse cases, the toxin may be latent, inverted, or the scabs may retract prematurely. Fortunately, if the spleen and stomach are inherently strong and treatment is timely, the patient will not fall into extreme distress, but residual toxins may still arise. Qian Yi stated: There are three manifestations of this disease: one is scabies, two is carbuncles, and three is red eyes. Based on symptoms, there are more than these; even when eruptions are complete, fully erupted, and evenly scabbed, residual toxins may appear due to excessive warming and tonification or improper diet. Therefore, treating post-smallpox residual toxins involves either tonifying, dispersing, or purging and resolving, depending on whether the pathogen is in the exterior or interior and whether the condition is deficiency or excess. One must not blindly administer decoctions indiscriminately.
[Chen Ziming] Residual toxins from sores may invade the eyes if the liver is deficient, form tinea and scabies if the lungs are deficient, or cause carbuncles and boils. If occurring at bone joints, it indicates kidney deficiency; if in muscles, spleen deficiency. Manifestations in tendons, head, face, teeth (with caries), or throat swelling and pain all follow meridian pathways, caused by toxins that fail to disperse and accumulate. This arises from delayed initial treatment or medical error, leaving toxins in the meridians. Decoctions for detoxification are appropriate.
[General Physicians] Smallpox toxin attacking the spleen causes diarrhea and edema; attacking the liver causes corneal opacity; attacking the heart causes irritability and crying; attacking the kidneys causes earache and pus accumulation; attacking the lungs causes cough and phlegm.
[Li Gao] If after eruption, residual toxins remain unscattered with fever and sores, administer Detoxification Pills (Jiedu Wan) with tea.
[Zhu Danxi] To treat pediatric smallpox with residual toxins, early consumption of grains can trap the toxic qi.
Buddleja Seed (Niuzi, 6 qian), Licorice Root (Gancao, 5 fen), Rhinoceros Horn (Xijiao), Atractylodes Macrocephala (Baizhu, 3 qian each), Schizonepeta (Jingjie), Saposhnikovia (Fangfeng), Bitter Orange (Zhike, 1 qian each).
Decoct in water and take warm.
Huoxue Jiedu Tang (Blood-Invigorating and Toxin-Resolving Decoction) treats residual toxins.
Saposhnikovia (Fangfeng), Schizonepeta (Jingjie), Rehmannia Root (Shengdihuang), Red Peony Root (Chishaoyao), Angelica Sinensis (Danggui), Forsythia (Lianqiao), Buddleja Seed (Niuxiangzi), Coptis (Huanglian), Arnebia/Lithospermum (Zicao), Licorice (Gancao), Atractylodes Cangzhu), Mint (Bohe), Ligusticum Chuanxiong (Chuanxiong), Akebia Stem (Mutong).
Equal parts, decoct in water and take.
[Carbuncles and Boils] These occur because toxic qi remains stored in the meridians, causing redness and swelling in weak muscle areas or movable joints. Alternatively, after resolution, failure to purge and resolve leads to vigorous residual toxins that cannot exit via skin or enter organs, accumulating to form carbuncles. Superficial toxins cause nodules, swellings, or boils; severe cases involve widespread swelling and pain in head, neck, chest, limbs, etc., which are treatable if localized or superficial. Deep, spreading infections may lead to tendon rupture, bone exposure, disability, or death. [Zhu Danxi] Smallpox carbuncles are often due to excess toxin and blood heat. Treatment depends on location. Urgency is critical. For suppuration, prioritize clearing heat and cooling blood using Red Peony Root (Chishaoyao), Licorice Joint (Gancao Jie), Forsythia (Lianqiao), Platycodon (Jiegeng). Use Ligusticum (Shengma) and Kudzu (Gegen) as guides for upper body; Areca Nut (Binglang) and Achyranthes (Nixi) for lower body. Add Fritillaria (Beimu), Honeysuckle (Rendongcao), Angelica Dahurica (Baizhi), Trichosanthes (Gualou). Use Rhubarb (Dahuang) for dry stool; Scutellaria (Huangqin) and Phellodendron (Huangbai) for alternating chills and fever. This method is effective. [Xue Ji] For early-stage non-suppurative lesions, use Xianfang Huoming Yin (Immortal Life Elixir) and Garlic-Moxibustion (Gesu Jiu) to dissipate. For impending suppuration, use Xianfang Huoming Yin to induce rupture. For Qi and Blood deficiency, use Bazhen Tang (Eight Treasures Decoction) to strengthen before rupturing. For weakness preventing healing, use Tuoli San (Support Interior Powder) to tonify and heal. Generally, for fever/swelling with normal stool, use Xianfang Huoming Yin and Garlic-Moxibustion. For constipation, add Rhubarb. If stool is clear but swelling persists, use another dose of Xianfang Huoming Yin followed by Tuoli San. For fever/fatigue with normal stool, use Buzhong Yiqi Tang (Tonify Middle and Boost Qi Decoction); if ineffective, use Garlic-Moxibustion. For post-rupture fever/dry mouth/fatigue, use Dongyuan Shengyu Tang. For dripping pus/intermittent fever, use Sijunzi Tang plus Ginseng and Astragalus. If the nursing mother has Liver Blood deficiency fever, use Jiawei Xiaochaihu Tang (Modified Minor Bupleurum Decoction). For Liver/Spleen depression anger fever, use Jiawei Guipi Tang (Modified Heart-Spleen Tonifying Decoction). For dietary heat accumulation, use Jiawei Qingwei San (Modified Stomach-Clearing Powder). Pure blood-cooling agents like Baidu drugs damage Qi, preventing rupture or healing. [Wan Quan] Treat smallpox carbuncles by identifying the meridian and using guiding herbs: Taiyang (Qianghuo, Fangfeng), Yangming (Shengma, Baizhi), Shaoyang (Chaihu), Shaoyin (Duhuo), Taiyin (Fangfeng), Jueyin (Chaihu). For early red/hard/painful lesions, prick with needle, suck out bad blood, apply Badu Gao (Toxin-Pulling Ointment). For excess Qi/stiff stool, use Paidu San (Detoxification and Purging Powder). For deficiency Qi/low appetite, use Shixuan San or Liuqi Yin. For shallow/small toxins, use Xiaochaihu Tang plus Shengdihuang internally and Badu Gao externally. This treats pre-ulcerative stage. For suppurative but unruptured lesions, use Pi Zhen (Knife Needle) to drain pus, preventing internal spread. For ruptured lesions, use Shiquan Dabu Tang (Ten Complete Tonic Decoction). This treats ulcerative stage.
Xianfang Huoming Yin (Immortal Life Elixir) treats smallpox carbuncles and all sore toxins, dissolving unformed ones and rupturing formed ones. It is a holy medicine for detoxification, pus elimination, and pain relief.

Take 5 qian per dose, decoct in wine. Infants' mothers take it too. Powder form mixed with wine is also acceptable. For severe exterior pathogens, add Ephedra (Mahuang) to disperse; for interior toxins, add Rhubarb (Dahuang) to purge. Adapt to clinical presentation. This is a life-saving agent, but useless if Qi is exhausted.

Post-smallpox Qi/Blood is deficient; they cannot tolerate such cold/breaking agents. Damaging Stomach Qi prevents resolution, suppuration, or flesh regeneration. Smallpox originates from viscera, turning blood to pus. Recurrence after cure indicates Spleen/Stomach deficiency, muscle wasting, and shortness of Ying/Wei. Physicians must be cautious.
