Source
From *Authentic Treatise on Surgery*, Volume 2.
Processing
Grind all ingredients into an extremely fine powder, knead it into the moxa, and form into pills the size of a soybean.
Benefits
For gangrene and all types of back abscesses in the early stages that are not yet painful.
Instructions for Use
Place the pellet on the affected area and perform moxibustion. Regardless of whether pain is present or not, continue until the skin turns charred; if the toxin has already spread, place the moxa cone at the edge of the red halo and perform moxibustion—it is ideal when pain turns to itching and itching turns to pain. After moxibustion, apply the “Ting Qiang Mai Zi” plaster and cover it with ointment; subsequently, administer “Chan Su Pills” and “Jie Du Ji Sheng Decoction” for concurrent treatment. The condition should regain a healthy color, and the presence of pus is a favorable sign.
