(Interpretation)

"The pulse is small, large, slippery and undulating, and you can refer to others; The image of the five internal organs can be analogized. " Small, large, slippery, astringent, floating and heavy pulse can be distinguished by fingers; The weather of the five zang-organs can be compared.

"The five internal organs are in harmony and can be conscious; Five-color micro-diagnosis can be observed visually. If you can match the pulse color, you can be safe. " By listening to the sound response of the five internal organs, you can identify a lot; The subtle changes of these five colors can be observed with the eyes. If we can combine color pulse analysis with diagnosis, we can be foolproof.

"Red, the pulse is strong, and breathing is difficult. The diagnosis is that there is gas accumulation in the middle, which is harmful to eating. It is called heart paralysis, thinking that illness is outside and guilty, so evil follows. " The face is red (red, the color of the heart), and the pulse is strong. After diagnosis, the disease gas accumulates in the abdomen, which often interferes with diet. This disease is called cardiodynia (a disease characterized by chest tightness and pain). The causes of the disease are over-thinking, sadness and illness.

"White, pulse is too high, breathing is erratic, and it is shocking. There is gas accumulation in the chest and respiratory deficiency, which is called lung paralysis, cold and heat, and drunkenness. " The face is white (white, the color of the lungs), the pulse is panting and floating, and the upper part is weak and the lower part is solid, which is easy to be frightened. The disease is called lung arthralgia (caused by skin arthralgia entering the lung), and its main symptoms are aversion to cold, fever, cough, wheezing, chest tightness and boredom. Lung qi is blocked by exogenous pathogens or causes.

"The pulse is green, long and bouncing from side to side, and there is gas under the heart to support the abdomen, which is called liver paralysis, causing cold and dampness, the same as hernia, low back pain and obvious headache." Blue complexion (liver color is blue), long pulse, flashing fingers left and right. This is because pathogenic factors accumulate in the heart and are supported by two stomachs. This disease is called liver arthralgia (one of five zang-organs arthralgia syndrome), and its main symptoms are headache, restless night sleep, thirst, polyuria, abdominal distension, low back pain, hypochondriac pain and cold feet. ), its pathogenic reason is cold.

"Yellow, the pulse is also big and empty, and there is gas in the abdomen and suffocation, which is called hernia. Women have the same method, and illness makes the limbs sweat. " If the face is yellow (yellow, the color of the spleen) and the pulse is large and weak, it is that the sick gas accumulates in the abdomen and there is adverse gas. This disease is called syncope hernia (hernia syndrome with syncope ascending). Symptoms include periumbilical colic, hypochondriac pain, nausea, cold vomiting, cold limbs, large and weak pulse, etc. Most of them are caused by cold accumulation in the abdomen. Women also have this situation. The cause of the disease is due to overwork of limbs and wind attack after sweating.

"The sky is dark, the pulse is strong and big, and there is gas accumulation in the lower abdomen, which is called kidney paralysis and can lie in clear water." If the face is black (black, the color of kidney) and the lower pulse is strong, this is the accumulation of pathogenic factors in the lower abdomen and anterior yin. This disease is called kidney bi (kidney bi is one of the five zang-organs bi, and kidney bi usually has symptoms such as bent back, inability to straighten, or swollen joints), and its pathogenic reason is sleeping after bathing.

"There are five colors, yellow eyes are green, yellow eyes are jealous, yellow eyes are white, yellow eyes are black, and all die. The face is blue and red, the face is white, the face is black, the face is black and white, and the face is blue. They are all dead. " Looking at the five colors, there are yellow eyes, red eyes, white eyes and black eyes, which are not signs of death. Blue eyes, red eyes and white eyes, blue eyes and black eyes, black eyes and white eyes are all signs of death.

Today, I learned to look at colors and feel my pulse to identify diseases. And continue to study, so call it a day.
