Take 2–3 qian per dose, mixed with good wine. Inducing sweating is a sign of effectiveness. It may also be applied before or after meals, and to sores above or below the affected area. For sores on the head or neck, use thorns from the tips of tree branches; for abscesses on the back, use thorns from the sun-exposed parts of the tree trunk; for anal abscesses or hanging abscesses, use thorns from within the tree’s forks—this is done to symbolize the condition.
