肺病者，喘欬逆气，肩背痛，汗出，凥阴，股膝髀腨，胻足皆痛，虚则少气不能报息，耳聋嗌干，取其经太阴、足太阳之外，厥阴内血者。

In lung illness there is panting and coughing with counterflowing qi, pain in the shoulder and back, sweating, and pain all through the sacrum and the private parts, the thigh, knee, hip and calf, the shin and the foot; in depletion the qi is too scant to carry on the breath, and there is deafness and dryness of the throat. Take the blood of its channels: the greater yin, the outer side of the foot greater yang, and the inner side of the reverting yin.
本篇於肺病之虛，不直言「喘」而別舉「少氣不能報息」——上文實證已有「喘欬逆氣」，故虛者另言其氣不足以續。「報」訓續，報息謂接續一息之呼吸；氣少而不能相續，最傳神於吸氣不接之間。同句復綴「耳聾嗌乾」，皆肺氣不布、清竅失養之證。第十八篇亦有太息之目，為氣乏而求一深呼吸者，與此可互參。
陰虚者，陽必湊之，故少氣時熱而汗出也。
阴虚者，阳必凑之，故少气时热而汗出也。
Yīn xū zhě, yáng bì còu zhī, gù shǎo qì shí rè ér hàn chū yě.
Where yin is vacuous, yang must gather there; hence the shortness of qi, the periodic heat, and the sweating.
「少氣」之目據第二十二篇而立（id 718），彼篇「虚則少氣不能報息」言其**狀**——氣不足以接續其息。**本篇獨言其因**：「陰虚者，陽必湊之，故少氣時熱而汗出也」——「陰」讀 yīn；**「虚」讀 xū**——底本作「虚」，不作「虛」（「虛」）；「者」讀 zhě；「陽」讀 yáng；「必」讀 bì；「湊」讀 còu；「之」讀 zhī；「故」讀 gù；**「少」讀 shǎo**——此讀 shǎo，與第十八段「少陰」、第三十五段「少腹」之讀 shào 者同形異讀，本篇二讀並見；「氣」讀 qì；「時」讀 shí；「熱」讀 rè；「而」讀 ér；「汗」讀 hàn；「出」讀 chū；「也」讀 yě。**少氣、時熱、汗出三者，本篇不以三證並列，而以一理貫之**：陰虛於下則陽湊之而上，陽湊則時熱，熱迫則汗出，汗出則氣愈少——**一串相因而下，末又反助其首，是為環**。故下文「小便黄者，少腹中有熱也」亦同此理：熱不在膀胱之府而在少腹之中，是陰分有熱，與「時熱」同源。**與第二十二篇對讀最見分際**：彼篇「少氣不能報息」是說病人怎麼喘，本篇「少氣時熱而汗出」是說這喘從哪裡來——**一狀其形，一原其因**。又與本站「氣」條本篇所收「邪之所湊，其氣必虚」為一文之上下句：彼句立其理，此句即以其理釋一證。

Those with heat only and no cold have had the yin qi cut off first, so that the yang qi breaks out alone: there is scant qi with fretting distress, heat in the hands and feet and a wish to vomit. It is named dan malaria.

A pulse arriving like a gushing spring, floating and beating up within the flesh, means the qi of the greater yang is spent; there is scant qi and loss of taste, and the person dies when the chives flower.

What is called pain in the chest and shortness of qi: water qi is in the stores; water is yin qi, and yin qi sits in the centre; hence the chest pain and the shortage of qi.

When construction and defence are held back, defence scatters and construction overflows: the qi is spent and the blood lodges fast — outwardly this becomes fever, inwardly a shortage of qi.

Qi Bo says: when the qi is in excess there is panting, coughing and rising qi; when it is insufficient the breathing is free but the qi is scant. If blood and qi have not pooled and the five depots are settled, and it is only the skin that is slightly affected, this is called a faint leak of the white qi.

In a year of fire in surplus, blazing summer heat spreads and moves and the metal of the lung receives evil. The people are ill with malaria, scantness of qi, coughing and panting, blood escaping upward, blood discharged downward, pouring below, dryness of the throat and deafness, heat in the centre and heat in the shoulder and back; it answers above to Mars. If it is severe there is pain in the chest, propping fullness and pain in the flanks, pain between the breast, the back and the shoulder blades, pain on the inner side of both arms, heat of the body and pain in the bones, and the soaking spread of the illness. The qi of gathering does not move and the qi of growth shines alone; rain, water, frost and cold arrive; it answers above to Mercury. If lesser yin or lesser yang presides above, fire blazes and scorches, the icy springs dry up and things are burnt and withered; the illness turns to delirious speech and raving, coughing and panting with a noisy breath, and, below, severe bleeding and unending discharge. Where Taiyuan is cut off there is death and no cure; it answers above to Mars.

Qibo says: a full form with a thin pulse, whose scant qi does not suffice for breathing, is in danger. A wasted form with a large pulse and much qi in the chest is death.
「少氣不足以息者危」——形盛而脉細、少氣不足以息，形與脉氣俱失其稱；下文「形氣相得者生」即其反；**「少氣」本篇1見**

It is said: when the first yang is diseased, there is scant qi, a tendency to cough and a tendency to discharge. If it transmits into the heart being tugged, and then into blockage of the diaphragm, the illness is grave.

If the stomach pulse is beating hard and long and the complexion red, the illness will be a snapping pain in the thigh. If it is soft and scattered, the illness will be food obstruction. If the spleen pulse is beating hard and long and the complexion yellow, the illness will be scant qi. If it is soft and scattered and the complexion lacks sheen, the illness will be swelling of the lower leg, like the appearance of water.
「當病少氣」，脾脉搏堅而長、其色黄者當病少氣。少氣謂氣不足以續息。
帝曰：冬脉太過與不及，其病皆何如？歧伯曰：太過，則令人解㑊，脊脉痛，而少氣不欲言；其不及，則令人心懸如病飢，䏚中清，脊中痛，少腹滿，小便變。

Excess brings lassitude, pain along the spinal vessel, and scant qi with no wish to speak. Deficiency leaves the heart hung up as in the illness of hunger, cold in the hollow below the ribs, pain within the spine, fullness of the lower abdomen, and changed urine.
「少氣不欲言」，冬脉太過則令人解㑊、脊脉痛而少氣不欲言。少氣謂氣不足以續息。
