Instructions for Use

Apply a mixture of sesame oil to the affected area. The next day, wash the area with a decoction of licorice root, then cauterize it again until the surface is level. Follow with the Tissue-Regenerating Powder. First, heat a cautery iron over mugwort fire until it glows red-hot, and cauterize the affected area 5–6 times. Immediately after cauterization, apply the medication; this prevents recurrence and eradicates the condition at its root.
