[Pulse Type] Tense pulse [jinmai] or Tight pulse [jinmai] [Interpretation] A pulse felt like a tightly stretched cord, indicating cold or pain. [Comments] 
This is similar to the wiry pulse, but not as long. While pain can be easily reported, a cold syndrome is sometimes disguised by localized heat symptoms; this pulse can indicate either exterior or interior chill.
