Yáng brightness (yáng míng) channel pattern

A disease arising when externally contracted evil enters the yáng brightness (yáng míng) channel, causing great heat [effusion], great sweating, pronounced agitation, and a large, surging pulse. The four signs are collectively known as the four greatnesses.

Medicinal therapy: Clear heat and drain fire to safeguard liquid. Use White Tiger Decoction (白虎汤 bái hǔ tāng) as the basic formula, adding ginseng (Ginseng Radix, 人参 rén shēn) to boost qì and engender liquid in cases of damage to both qì and yīn.
