In the Golden Cabinet (《金匮要略》) tradition, wine jaundice (酒疸) is a disease/condition described in the Essential Prescriptions (金匮要略, ch.15) — an alcohol-related type of jaundice — by vexing heat in the heart region, an inability to eat, and a frequent urge to vomit. A historical disease-category for reference, not a diagnostic or treatment guide.
