| Abstract
|
| The characteristics of Yingfen disease discussed by scholars of seasonal febrile disease are psychosis disorder and "indistinct macula". And they often combine Ying and Xue together, called "Yingxue". But doctors in Qin Dynasty and Han Dynasty often combined Ying and Wei together and called it "Yingwei". In Treatise on Exogenous Febrile Diseases, no matter whether the disease is induced by exogenous factors or by endogenous damages, the existence or inexistence of sweat are determined by the relationship of Ying and Wei. Sweating is the manifestation of Wei Qi's weakness and Ying Yin's discretion. This opinion is the same with that of Ying Wei Sheng Hui, but it's different with the opinion of scholars of seasonal febrile disease in Qing Dynasty, which suggested that the disturbed Ying Yin can lead to "indistinct macula". Actually, Yingfen syndrome discussed in seasonal febrile disease is Xuefen syndrome, which is just less serious. In one word, Qingying decoction essentially applied the method of clearing away heat, cooling the Ying and detoxification. Scholars of seasonal febrile disease borrowed the term of "Ying Qi" and called the less serious Xuefen syndrome as "Yingfen syndrome". |
