In the scriptures it is written with 千 [qiān] as [厂@千], which is found in no dictionary and does not form a valid character. The second character is 小 [xiǎo] + 焦 [jiāo] fanqie. Picang: 痟 [xiāo] refers to a thirst disease; it also refers to emaciation disease. It is derived from 疒 with 肖 as phonetic.
