In the Golden Cabinet (《金匮要略》) tradition, yellow sweating (黄汗) is a disease/condition described in the Essential Prescriptions (金匮要略, ch.14, among the water-qi conditions) — named by a deep, slow pulse with fever, chest fullness, and swelling of the limbs, head and face. A historical disease-category for reference, not a diagnostic or treatment guide.
