Fingerprint is divided into three stages: wind, qi and life, that is, the first stage near the palm of the index finger is wind, the second stage is qi and the third stage is life.
(A) the method of reading fingerprints
Holding the child under the light, the doctor holds the end of the child's index finger with his left index finger and thumb, and pushes the child's index finger palm directly to the air-air gap for several times with proper force to make the fingerprint more obvious and easier to observe.
(B) Look at the clinical significance of fingerprints
Normal fingerprints, the color of collaterals is reddish and purple, hidden in Fengguan, mostly not exposed or even obvious, mostly oblique, single and moderate in thickness.
1. The change of the grain position-three-level measurement: the grain position is the part where the fingerprint appears.
According to the position where fingerprints appear on the three fingers, the depth of pathogenic factors and the severity of the disease can be measured. Fingerprints near Guan Feng show that the pathogen is shallow and the condition is mild; Those whose fingerprints have passed the wind and gas clearance think that the evil is deep and the condition is serious; When fingerprints pass through the air and reach the key point, it is a sign that evil is deeply ill; If the fingerprint passes through the three levels of wind, qi and life, it extends to the nail end, which is called "nail piercing", revealing that the condition is critical.
2. Changes in grain color-red and purple distinguish between cold and heat: The changes in grain color mainly include red, purple, cyan, black and white and purple.
Bright red stripes are mostly exogenous wind and cold. The grain color is purple-red, which is a multi-main heat syndrome. Blue stripe, wind syndrome or pain syndrome; The grain color is purple or purple-black, indicating that the blood collaterals are closed and sunken; The grain color is pale white, mostly caused by spleen deficiency.
3. Grain shape change-ups and downs are divided into the exterior and the interior, and stagnation determines the reality: grain shape, that is, the change of the depth, fineness and thickness of fingerprints.
If the fingerprint is floating, the main disease is in the table; What to hide, the main illness is in the hospital. Thin lines and light colors are mostly deficiency syndrome; Thick lines and thick colors are mostly from experience.
In a word, the key points of reading children's fingerprints are: ups and downs are divided into exterior and interior, red and purple are divided into cold and heat, light and depression determine the actual situation, three levels of weight measurement, grain color, and look carefully.
