Chapter 7, Feiwei,
Feiyong, cough, their symptoms, pulse and treatment
问曰:热在上焦者,因咳为肺痿,肺痿之病,从何得之?师曰:或从汗出,或从呕吐,或从消渴,小便利数,或从便难,又被快药下利,重亡津液,故得之。曰:寸口脉数,其人咳,口中反有浊唾涎沫者何?师曰:为肺痿之病。若口中辟辟燥,咳即胸中隐隐痛,脉反滑数,此为肺痈,咳唾脓血。
Asked: if there is Fire in the Upper Jiao Cavity, cough may
cause Feiwei[1]. How the
Feiwei comes? Master: it can be due to sweat, to vomiting, to
extreme thirsty and heavy urination, to constipation but got
strong diarrhea medications, resulting in loss of body Jingye.
Asked: if the pulse on the Chun position is frequent, the person
has cough but also has sticky saliva in the mouth. How? Master:
This is Feiwei disease. If the person feels dry in mouth, feels
mild pain in the chest when cough, and if his pulse is smooth
and frequent, the condition is called Weiyong.
[2]
脉数虚者为肺痿,数实者为肺痈。
For Feiwei (lung withered), the pulse is frequent and weak; for
Feiyong (lung abscess), the pulse is frequent and strong.
问曰:病咳逆,脉之何以知此为肺痿肺痈?当有脓血,吐之则死,其脉何类?师曰:寸口脉浮而数,浮则为风,数则为热;浮则汗出,数则恶寒,风中于卫,呼气不入;热过于荣,吸而不出。风伤皮毛,热伤血脉。风舍于肺,其人则咳,口干,喘满;咽燥不渴,时唾浊沫,时时振寒。热之所过,血为之凝滞,蓄结痈脓,吐如米粥。始萌可救,脓成则死。
Asked: for a person with cough, how do we know it is Feiwei or
Feiyong? Master: if the person has cough with heavy and sticky
saliva in mouth but no thirsty, how can we tell if it is Feiwei
by his pulse? Master: if the pulse on the Chun position is
floating and frequent, the floating means Wind invasion, the
frequent mans Fire. Due to the floating pulse, he has sweat, to
the frequent pulse, he has chilly. The Wind invades in the Weiqi,
the inhalation is difficult; if the Fire is in the Rongqi, the
inhalation is difficult. The Wind damages the skin layer of the
body, the Fire damages the Blood. The Wind lives in the lung, so
the person has cough, dry mouth, asthma and fullness in the
chest; feels dry in mouth but not thirsty, spit condensed saliva
and has chilly from time to time. If the Fire is too much, it
may cause block of the blood to form abscess, so to spit
pus-like phlegm. In the early stage, this condition may be
reversed, in a later stage, it is hard.

[1] Feiwei: Fei here means the lung;
wei means atrophy or withered. It refers to lung
diseases which is structural problem in the lung,
causing reduced effective lung tissue to have oxygen
exchange.
[2] Feiyong: Fei means lung, yong
means pus-formation infection, e.g. pus mass. In the
Feiwei, the person has cough with pus and blood in the
phlegm. The pulse should be frequent and strong. In
Feiwei, the pulse is frequent and weak. This paragraph
distinguishes the Feiwei and Feiyong diseases. For any
chronic cough, the first thing in the diagnosis is to
exclude these two diseases. In the Feiyong, the
accumulated Fire in the any of the five fullness organs
mixed with Fire in stomach. The Fire pushes up to the
Lung, condenses blood in the lung and folds phlegm
inside to form the abscess. The abscess can grow up
bigger, the person has more frequent cough, has sticky
phlegm, fever and chilly that are more severe in the
evening, has red face and dry nose, dry skin in the
chest. In this stage, use proper treatment to reduce the
Fire, the recover is pretty much possible. If waste time
until the abscess is open to broke, spit lots of pus, it
is difficult.
[3] If the person has dry cough, no
saliva spiting, it may belong to dry cough. If he has
cough and spits saliva, it belongs to the Fire Feiwei.
If only spit saliva, no cough, it belongs to Cold in the
Lung.
[4] Xiaoke: a clinic condition in
which the patient feels very thirsty, has very strong
hungry feeling, or has too frequent and too much urine.
Type I diabetes can have such phenomenon, but it is not
the only disease that can have such Xiaoke disease.
After drinking the Gancao Ganjiang Tang, the
person feels thirsty, it suggests that the condition
does not belong to the Cold lung, but to Fire in stomach
(Xiaoke).
[5] The Cold and Water Xieqi push up
to cause the cough and water-air bubble noise in the
throat.
[6] Cough with water-air noise in the
throat: Cold-Water pushes up; cough with harsh feeling
in the throat: Fire pushes up.
The Fire upper pushing is due to depletion of
Jingye in the stomach.
[7] This condition is not due to
Cold-water, or Fire, but to Phlegm. It is much severe
than the Cold-water condition in the lung.
[8] The floating and big pulse
suggests the Yangqi is to deplete from the upper part of
the body. The diarrhea suggests the Yangqi is to deplete
from the lower part of the body, so that it said it is a
hard condition to solve.
[9] Feizhang: a condition similar to
pulmonary emphysema, the term used by western medicine.
[10] Here the cough means scattered
cough, not a frequent and urgent cough.
[11] Cough with floating pulse: Wind
invasion and the Xieqi is in the outside layer of the
body. Use Houpo Mahuang Tang to expel the Xieqi from the
body surface. Cough with deep pulse: Water Xieqi in the
inside of the body. Use Ziqi Tang to deplete the Xieqi
from urine.
