且夫中风者,有五不治也。开口、闭眼、撒屎、遗尿、喉中雷鸣,皆恶候也。且中风者
,为百病之长,至其变化,各不同焉。或中于脏,或中于腑,或痰或气,或怒或喜,逐其隙
而害成也。中于脏者,则令人不省人事,痰涎壅,喉中雷鸣,四肢瘫痪,不知疼痛,语言
謇涩,故难治也。中于腑者,则令人半身不遂,口眼 斜,知痒痛,能言语,形色不变,
故易治也。治之先审其症,而后刺之。其中五脏六腑形症各有名,先须察其源,而名其症,
根据标本刺之,无不效也。
一、肝中之状,无汗恶寒,其色青,名曰怒中。
二、心中之状,多汗怕惊,其色赤,名曰思虑中。
三、脾中之状,多汗身热,其色黄,名曰喜中。
四、肺中之状,多汗恶风,其色白,名曰气中。
五、肾中之状,多汗身冷,其色黄,名曰气劳中。
六、胃中之状,饮食不下,痰涎上壅,其色淡黄,名曰食后中。
七、胆中之状,目眼牵连,酣睡不醒,其色绿,名曰惊中。
疔疮生在面部及口角处:灸合谷穴。
疔疮生在手部:灸曲池穴(施灸)。
疔疮生在背部:取肩井、足三里、委中、足临泣、行间、通里、少海、太冲穴。
瘰疬:先针少海穴,在皮肤上候三十六息的时间,然后推进针体,必须确定深浅,根据核结的大小调整,不要刺破核结,进针时三提三插,然后出针;再取天池、章门、足临泣、支沟、阳辅穴(灸百壮)、肩井穴(随患者年龄决定灸的壮数)、手三里穴。
痈疽发背:取肩井、委中穴,另外用蒜片贴在疮面上施灸,如果不痛,就灸到感到疼痛为止;如果痛,就灸到不痛为止,灸得越多越好。
溺水死亡者,即使过了一夜也可以抢救:立即解开死者的衣带,灸脐中穴。
狂犬咬伤人:立即在咬伤处的疮面上施灸。
蛇咬伤人:在受伤处灸三壮,仍然用蒜片贴在咬伤处,在蒜片上施灸。
人脉象微细不见,或有时出现有时消失:适宜在足少阴肾经的复溜穴上,使用圆利针刺入至骨处,顺着针势向下刺,等待回阳脉恢复,当阳脉出现时,才可以出针。
痈疽疮毒:采用杨氏骑竹马灸法。

况且中风病,有五种无法治愈的情况。张口、闭眼、大小便失禁、遗尿、喉中有如雷鸣的声音,都是恶候。况且中风病是百病之长,到了它发生变化的时候,各不相同。有的邪气侵入五脏,有的侵入六腑,有的是痰邪,有的是气滞,有的是因愤怒,有的是因喜乐,趁其间隙而致病形成。邪气侵入五脏,就会使人神志不清,痰涎壅盛,喉中有雷鸣声,四肢瘫痪,不知疼痛,语言謇涩,所以难以治疗。邪气侵入六腑,就会使人半身不遂,口眼歪斜,能感知痒痛,能够说话,面色形态没有改变,所以容易治疗。治疗时要先审察症状,然后进行针刺。其中五脏六腑的形症各有名称,必须先考察其根源,并命名病症,根据标本原则进行针刺,没有不有效的。
一、肝脏受邪的症状:无汗且怕冷,面色青,名叫“怒中”。
二、心脏受邪的症状:多汗且害怕惊悸,面色赤,名叫“思虑中”。
三、脾脏受邪的症状:多汗且身体发热,面色黄,名叫“喜中”。
四、肺脏受邪的症状:多汗且怕风,面色白,名叫“气中”。
五、肾脏受邪的症状:多汗且身体寒冷,面色黄,名叫“气劳中”。
六、胃腑受邪的症状:饮食不下,痰涎上涌壅塞,面色淡黄,名叫“食后中”。
七、胆腑受邪的症状:目眼牵连不适,嗜睡不醒,面色绿,名叫“惊中”。

Ding sores occurring on the hand: Moxibustion applied to Quchi (LI11).
Ding sores occurring on the back: Points Shanjing (GB21), Zusanli (ST36), Weizhong (BL40), Linqi (GB41), Xingjian (LR2), Tongli (HT5), Shaohai (HT3), Taichong (LR3).
Luo li (scrofula): First needle Shaohai (HT3); wait for thirty-six breaths on the skin, then advance the needle. One must determine the depth according to the size of the nodule, without rupturing it. Perform three withdrawals and three insertions, then remove the needle. Additional points: Tianchi (PC1), Zhangmen (LR13), Linqi (GB41), Zhigou (TE6), Yangfu (GB38) [Moxibustion: 100 moxa cones]; Shanjing (GB21) [Moxibustion: number of cones corresponding to age]; Shousanli (LI10).
Yong ju fa bei (carbuncle of the back): Points Shanjing (GB21), Weizhong (BL44). Additionally, place a slice of garlic on the sore and apply moxibustion. If there is no pain, continue until pain is felt; if there is pain, continue until pain ceases. The more moxa cones used, the better.
For drowning victims who have died but can be saved even after one night: Immediately untie the deceased's clothing and belts, and apply moxibustion to Shenque (CV8).
Bites from rabid dogs: Immediately apply moxibustion to the wound site.
Bites from snakes: Apply three moxa cones to the injured area. Also, place a slice of garlic on the bite site and apply moxibustion onto the garlic.
When the pulse is minute and fine, invisible, or intermittent: It is appropriate to use a round-bladed needle at Fuli (KI7) of the Foot-Shaoyin Kidney Meridian. Insert the needle to the bone level, advancing in the direction of the meridian flow. Wait for the return of the Yang pulse; only when the Yang pulse reappears should the needle be removed.
Yong ju chuang du (carbuncles, ulcers, and toxic sores): Use the "Riding Bamboo Horse" moxibustion method described by Yang.

Regarding wind-stroke (Zhong Feng), there are five conditions that are incurable. Opening the mouth, closing the eyes, defecation in bed, urinary incontinence, and roaring sounds in the throat are all ominous signs. Wind-stroke is considered the chief among diseases; its manifestations vary greatly. Pathogenic factors may invade the Zang organs or the Fu organs; etiology may involve phlegm or Qi stagnation, anger or joy, taking advantage of vulnerabilities to cause disease. When invading the Zang organs, it causes loss of consciousness, accumulation of phlegm and saliva, roaring sounds in the throat, paralysis of the four limbs, insensitivity to pain, and slurred speech; thus, it is difficult to treat. When invading the Fu organs, it causes hemiplegia, deviation of the mouth and eye, preservation of sensation to itching and pain, ability to speak, and unchanged complexion; thus, it is easier to treat. Treatment requires first examining the symptoms before needling. Each condition involving the five Zang and six Fu organs has specific names; one must first investigate the root cause and name the syndrome, then needle according to the principle of treating both the root and branch, ensuring efficacy.
1. Syndrome of Liver involvement: Absence of sweat and aversion to cold, bluish complexion, named "Anger Stroke".
2. Syndrome of Heart involvement: Excessive sweating and fear of fright, reddish complexion, named "Overthinking Stroke".
3. Syndrome of Spleen involvement: Excessive sweating and body heat, yellowish complexion, named "Joy Stroke".
4. Syndrome of Lung involvement: Excessive sweating and aversion to wind, whitish complexion, named "Qi Stroke".
5. Syndrome of Kidney involvement: Excessive sweating and cold body, yellowish complexion, named "Qi Exhaustion Stroke".
6. Syndrome of Stomach involvement: Inability to eat, upward rush of phlegm and saliva, pale yellow complexion, named "Post-prandial Stroke".
7. Syndrome of Gallbladder involvement: Tension around the eyes, deep sleep with difficulty waking, greenish complexion, named "Fright Stroke".
