Instructions for Use

To use, grind the mixture with genuine rice vinegar into a thick paste; apply to the affected area using a chicken feather, reapplying as it dries. For recent lesions, this can disperse the swelling. If pus has already formed and pain is present, leave the head of the abscess exposed and apply the ointment around the perimeter; this will also help reduce the size and promote rapid healing.
