Taiyang cold attack pattern

太阳伤寒tai yang shang han

2 sources

In the cold-damage (Shanghan) tradition, Taiyang cold-attack (太阳伤寒) is a sub-pattern under Taiyang disease (太阳病). The Treatise on Cold Damage (《伤寒论》, Song art. 3) names it by aversion to cold (fever may be delayed), body ache, retching, and a tight pulse — here 'cold-attack' (伤寒) is the narrow exterior-excess type, not the book's broad sense. Traditionally the exterior-excess type of Taiyang disease. A historical pattern-category for reference, not a diagnostic or treatment guide.
