耳聋者,风冷伤于肾。肾气通于耳,劳伤肾气,风冷客之,邪与正气相搏,使经气不通
耳聋风肿者,风邪搏于肾气故也。肾气通于耳,邪搏其经,血气壅涩,不得宣发,故结
眼 赤者,风冷客于 间,与血气相搏,而泪液乘之,挟热者则令 赤。
风眩而鼻塞者,风邪乘腑脏,入于脑也。五脏六腑之精气,皆上注于目,血与气并属于
脑。体虚为风邪入脑,则引目,目系急,故令头眩。而腑脏皆受气于肺,肺主气,外候在鼻
,风邪入脑,又搏肺气,故头眩而鼻塞。
鼻衄者,由伤动血气所为。五脏皆禀血气,血气和调,则循环经络,不涩不散。若劳伤
损动,因而生热,气逆流溢入鼻者,则成鼻衄也。
面黑 者,或脏腑有痰饮,或皮肤受风邪,皆令血气不调,致生黑 。五脏六
腑,十二经血,皆上于面。夫血之行,俱荣表里。人或痰饮渍脏,或腠理受风,致血气不和
,或涩或浊,不能荣于皮肤,故变生黑 。若皮肤受风,外治则瘥,腑脏有饮,内疗方
面黑子者,风邪搏血气,变化所生。夫人血气充盛,则皮肤润悦。若虚损,疵点变生。
黑子者,是风邪变其血气所生。若生而有之者,非药可治也。
耳聋,是由于风冷之邪损伤了肾脏。肾气与耳相通,若因劳倦耗伤肾气,风冷之邪乘虚侵入,邪气与人体正气相互搏结,导致经络之气运行不通畅。
耳聋伴局部红肿者,是因为风邪与肾气相互搏结所致。肾气通于耳,邪气侵袭其经脉,致使气血壅滞涩阻,不能宣散透发,因此凝结成肿。
眼睛发红,是风冷之邪客居于眼部间隙,与血气相互搏结,且泪液随之受扰;若兼挟热邪,则会导致眼睛发红。
患风眩证并伴有鼻塞者,是风邪侵入脏腑,进而深入脑部。五脏六腑的精气,都上注于目,血液与气并归属于脑。身体虚弱时,风邪容易入脑,牵引目系,使目系拘急,从而导致头晕目眩。而脏腑的气皆源于肺,肺主司气,其外在表现反映在鼻部;风邪入脑后,又搏结于肺气,所以出现头晕目眩和鼻塞的症状。
鼻出血(鼻衄),是由血气受损扰动所致。五脏都禀受血气,若血气调和,则在经络中循环流畅,不涩滞也不散乱。如果因劳倦损伤导致体内生热,气机逆乱向上溢出至鼻腔,就会形成鼻衄。
面部出现黑色斑点(面黑䵟),可能是因为脏腑内有痰饮停滞,也可能是皮肤受到风邪侵袭,这些情况都会导致血气不调,从而产生黑色斑点。五脏六腑及十二经脉的血液,都上行于面部。血液的运行,同时滋养体表和体内。如果人因痰饮浸渍脏腑,或因腠理受风,导致血气不和,或涩滞或浑浊,不能荣润皮肤,因此变生黑色斑点。若是皮肤受风所致,通过外治法即可痊愈;若是脏腑内有痰饮,则需内服药物调理才能治愈。
面部黑痣(面黑子),是风邪搏结血气,变化而生成的。人的血气充盛时,皮肤滋润光泽。若身体虚损,则会产生瑕疵斑点。黑痣,就是风邪改变了血气状态所生成的。如果是出生时就有的,则不是药物可以治疗的。
蛇皮病(蛇体),是由于风邪客居于腠理之间。人的腠理受到风邪侵袭后会变得闭密,致使血气涩滞浑浊,不能荣润肌肤,导致皮肤斑驳剥落。其症状如同蛇鳞一般,世人称之为“蛇体”,也称之为“蛇皮”。
Deafness is caused by wind-cold injuring the Kidney. The Kidney Qi connects with the ears; when labor and overstrain injure the Kidney Qi, wind-cold enters as an pathogenic factor. The pathogen contends with the healthy Qi, causing the Qi of the meridians to become obstructed.
Deafness accompanied by local swelling occurs because wind-pathogen contends with the Kidney Qi. Since the Kidney Qi connects with the ears, the pathogen attacks its meridians, causing Qi and Blood to become congested and stagnant, unable to disperse and emerge, thus forming a knot or swelling.
Redness of the eyes results from wind-cold lodging in the interstices of the eye region, contending with Qi and Blood, while tears are disturbed by it; if accompanied by heat, this causes redness of the eyes.
Wind-induced vertigo accompanied by nasal congestion occurs when wind-pathogen invades the Zang-Fu organs and enters the brain. The essence-Qi of the Five Zang and Six Fu organs all ascend to the eyes, and Blood and Qi are jointly associated with the brain. When the body is deficient, wind-pathogen enters the brain, pulling on the visual system (Muxi), making it tense, thus causing dizziness. Furthermore, the Qi of the Zang-Fu organs originates from the Lung; the Lung governs Qi, and its external manifestation is reflected in the nose. After wind-pathogen enters the brain, it also contends with Lung Qi, resulting in vertigo and nasal congestion.
Epistaxis (Nosebleed) is caused by the disturbance and injury of Qi and Blood. All Five Zang organs receive Qi and Blood; when Qi and Blood are harmonious, they circulate through the meridians without stagnation or dispersion. If labor and strain cause damage and generate internal heat, causing Qi to reverse and overflow into the nose, epistaxis occurs.
Dark spots on the face (Facial Melasma/Dark Patches) may arise from phlegm-fluid retention within the Zang-Fu organs or from wind-pathogen affecting the skin. Both conditions lead to disharmony of Qi and Blood, resulting in the formation of dark patches. The blood of the Five Zang, Six Fu organs, and the Twelve Meridians all ascend to the face. The movement of Blood nourishes both the interior and exterior. If phlegm-fluid soaks the Zang organs, or if wind affects the Couli (pores/skin interstices), causing Qi and Blood to become disharmonious—either stagnant or turbid—and unable to nourish the skin, dark spots develop. If caused by wind affecting the skin, external treatment will cure it; if caused by fluid retention in the Zang-Fu organs, internal treatment is required for recovery.
Black nevi on the face (Facial Black Moles) are generated by wind-pathogen contending with Qi and Blood, leading to transformational changes. When a person's Qi and Blood are abundant, the skin is moist and lustrous. If there is deficiency and damage, blemishes and spots appear. Black moles are formed by wind-pathogen altering the state of Qi and Blood. Those present since birth cannot be treated with medicine.
Snake-skin disease (Ophiasis/Scaly Skin Condition) is caused by wind-pathogen lodging in the Couli. When the Couli are affected by wind, they become closed and dense, causing Qi and Blood to become stagnant and turbid, unable to nourish and moisten the skin, leading to mottled and peeling skin. Its appearance resembles snake scales; the world calls it "Snake Body," also referred to as "Snake Skin."
