Effective for all conditions caused by wind, cold, and dampness that manifest as wandering pain, cramping of the hands and feet, infantile convulsions, facial paralysis (twisting of the mouth and eyes), and abdominal masses or attacking pain in women—regardless of how long the condition has persisted. Also effective for minor boils.

Instructions for Use

To use, place the medicine on the affected area (a grain-of-rice-sized amount for severe cases; a grain-of-millet-sized amount for mild cases), ignite it with a lamp flame, and wait until the fire goes out; then apply the ash directly to the skin. Immediate recovery will follow; only one application is needed, and no further moxibustion is required. If the affected area is large, arrange several applications in a row and treat them simultaneously (this medicine does not cause significant heat or pain during moxibustion, and no pus will form afterward).
