Cold-damage disease, fever without sweating, vomiting and inability to eat, but instead sweating profusely, is a transformation belonging to yang brightness.

bubble_chart Note

• cold-damage disease, fever without sweating, vomiting and inability to eat, is the evil of taiyang wanting to transmit.
• If there is no sweating, it is because the exterior of transmission from greater yang to yang brightness is still present, and sweating can be induced.
• Now, instead, there is profuse sweating, which means the evil has already transformed and belongs to the yang brightness's fu, and purging is appropriate, not sweating.

• Cheng Wu-ji said: "cold-damage disease fever without sweating, vomiting and inability to eat, is taiyang being affected by disease. If instead there is profuse sweating, it is the evil of taiyang transforming and belonging to yang brightness. Therefore, the classic says: 'yangming disease often involves sweating.'"
• Fang You-zhi said: "Vomiting and inability to eat, heat entering the stomach. Instead sweating, the muscles are affected by heat, and the skin's pores open."
• Cheng Ying-qi said: "The taiyang's original syndrome is present, but instead there is profuse sweating, although the exterior pattern is not yet resolved, it has already transformed and belongs to yang brightness. Profuse, continuous sweating, as the saying goes: sweat one body, then another body."
