Instructions for Use
For all sores, whether already broken or not, wash the affected area with a decoction of green onions and Sichuan pepper before applying the ointment; if the condition is severe at onset, cut out the center of the ointment, leaving the top intact to allow vapors to escape—there is no need to remove it. One application of the ointment can cure one toxin.
Note
When preparing the ointment, do not expose it to direct flame; it must be melted using a double boiler.
