Switch to applying the Tissue-Regenerating Powder three times a day for three days, and the pain will cease immediately; thereafter, wash the area daily with scallion broth and apply the Jade Red Ointment to promote tissue regeneration and healing. It is essential to keep the area protected from the wind.
