Clinical manifestations: Sudden jerky tics around the eyes, face, or neck that worsen with emotional stress, irritability and easy anger, dizziness or a sensation of falling, throbbing distending headache often at the temples, flushed face and red eyes.
Tongue: Red body, stiff or trembling, possibly deviated, thin yellow or scanty coating. Pulse: Wiry, fine and may be rapid.
Treatment principle: Calm the Liver and extinguish Wind, subdue Liver-Yang, clear Heat and drain Fire.
Note: no moxa. This site's own Liver-Fire-generating-Wind slide is the closer match — it explicitly names tremor, irritability and a red face, which plain Liver-Yang rising does not — so it is linked here.
2. Exterior Wind
Clinical manifestations: Sudden onset of tics after wind exposure or a mild cold, aversion to wind or drafts, mild chills or low-grade fever, runny nose with clear discharge, sneezing, itchy throat, stiff neck and muscle aches.
Tongue: Normal pink body with thin white coating. Pulse: Floating, possibly slightly wiry.
Treatment principle: Release the exterior and dispel the pathogen while calming internal agitation.
Note: no moxa. This pattern's own listed signs mix Cold markers (clear discharge, chills) with a stated Wind-Heat treatment principle — an inconsistent presentation that doesn't cleanly match either this site's Wind-Cold or Wind-Heat invasion slide, so no pattern link is given here.
Clinical manifestations: Mental restlessness and agitation, copious thick yellow sticky phlegm, flushed red face and bitter taste in the mouth, severely disturbed sleep with vivid dreams.
Tongue: Red body, swollen with a red prickly tip, thick yellow greasy coating. Pulse: Slippery and rapid.
Treatment principle: Clear Heat and transform Phlegm, clear Liver and Gall Bladder Heat.
Note: no moxa. Direct match with this site's own Phlegm-Fire-harassing-the-Heart slide.
Clinical manifestations: Tics worsen with emotional stress or anger, irritability and angry outbursts, bitter taste in the mouth, rib-side distension or chest tightness, dry mouth and throat, red eyes or headache.
Tongue: Red body especially on the sides, with yellow dry coating, possible prickles. Pulse: Wiry and rapid, especially at left Guan.
Treatment principle: Smooth Liver-Qi stagnation, clear Heat, and calm the spirit.
Note: no moxa. Direct match with this site's own Stagnant-Liver-Qi-turning-into-Heat slide.
5. Empty-Wind Agitating in the Interior
Clinical manifestations: Mild persistent twitching of the limbs or face, deep exhaustion and listlessness, night sweats and malar flush, dry mouth and throat, dizziness and blurred vision.
Tongue: Crimson, thin, dry, cracked, little or no coating, may tremble. Pulse: Fine, rapid, may be wiry at left Guan but lacks force.
Treatment principle: Nourish Yin and extinguish Wind, subdue floating Yang, nourish Blood and generate Essence.
Note: no moxa given the Empty-Heat. No deck on this site has a Yin-deficiency-generating-Wind slide distinct from the Fire- and Blood-deficiency Wind patterns already covered, so no pattern link is given here.
