Theory of the Transmission of specimen diseases

The Yellow Emperor asked, "If a disease has a root cause and a thorn has an adverse reaction, what should be done?" Qi Bo to the Sun: In all the ways of stabbing, one must distinguish between Yin and Yang and correspond to the front and back. When one follows the principle of giving, the symptoms and the root cause will shift. Therefore, it is said that there are those who seek the symptoms based on the symptoms, those who seek the root cause, those who seek the symptoms based on the root cause, and those who seek the root cause. Thus, there are those who obtain by taking the symptoms, those who obtain by taking the root cause, those who obtain by going against the principle, and those who obtain by following the principle. Therefore, knowing the opposite and following, the right conduct is not questioned. Those who know the symptoms and the root cause will do everything appropriately. Those who do not know the symptoms and the root cause are called false conduct. The Dao is composed of Yin and Yang, opposition and harmony, and specimens. It is small yet vast; from one word, one can understand the harm of a hundred diseases. It is few yet many; shallow yet extensive; from one word, one can understand a hundred. From the shallow to the profound, from the near to the far, speak the key points and the essence, and do not reach for the easy. To rebel is to rebel; to govern effectively is to follow. For those who fall ill first and then become reversed, the root cause should be treated; for those who become reversed first and then fall ill, the root cause should be treated; for those who fall ill first and then develop cold, the root cause should be treated; for those who become hot first and then fall ill, the root cause should be treated; for those who develop central fullness after light heat, the symptoms should be treated; for those who fall ill first and then develop earth, the root cause should be treated; for those who have diarrhea first and then develop other diseases, the root cause should be treated. It is necessary to regulate and treat other diseases. For those who fall ill first and then develop central fullness, the symptoms should be treated. To address the root cause, one must first be satisfied and then be troubled. People have courtesy and share the same spirit. Small but large benefits do not address the symptoms; small but large benefits address the root cause. When the disease occurs and lingers, address the root cause and then the symptoms. First, treat the root cause, and then the symptoms. When the disease occurs but is insufficient, address the symptoms and the root cause. First treat the symptoms, then the root cause. Carefully observe the intervals when they are too intense, and adjust them with your mind. Sometimes they walk in parallel, and sometimes they walk alone. It is not beneficial to start with minor issues but to address the root cause of illness. The patient with the disease has no heart pain, but coughs after one day, experiences pain in the hypochondrium and branches after three days, and has a blocked body and weight loss after five days. If he did not stop for three days, he died. In the middle of winter nights, in summer, there is asthma and coughing due to electrocution. On the first day, there is fullness and pain in the hypochondrium. On the first day, the body feels heavy and painful. On the fifth day, there is distension. If one does not stop for ten days, one will die. Enter in winter, rise in summer. Liver disease causes dizziness in the head, fullness in the ribs, weight loss and body pain in the first three days, distension in the fifth day, and pain in the lower back, spine and abdomen in the third day, which is more severe than soreness. If he did not stop for three days, he died. Enter in winter and eat early in summer. Student: The original work "Xian" is adapted from Wang Zhubu's text in "The Great Treatise on the Essentials of Truth". When the spleen is affected, there is body pain and weight loss. On the first day, there is distension. On the second day, there is pain in the lower abdomen and lumbar spine that is more severe than soreness. On the third day, there is pain in the back and tendons, and urinary retention. If one does not stop for ten days, one will die. It's up to everyone to decide. Summer dinner.

Bladder odor disease leads to urinary retention, abdominal distension for five days, pain in the waist and spine, and dysmenorrhea. Abdominal distension and body pain occur each day. Two days without rest, he died. The rooster crows in winter, before the sun sets in summer. The following is the transmission of the disease. All of them have a time limit and should not be pricked. They should be stopped after one or three storehouses. Only when they reach the third or fourth storehouse can they be pricked.
