Benefits

Boils and abscesses.

Instructions for Use

For each half liang, mix with the juice of raw Rehmannia root and apply to the old scar tissue outside the ulcer’s border, promoting rapid contraction from the outer edge inward. Another proven method for treating ulcers: mix with fresh water, dip a brush in the mixture, and apply to the ulcer. If the medicinal efficacy is strong, the swelling will subside, the skin will wrinkle, and the condition will be easy to treat; if the skin over the swollen area is taut and the ulcer’s border spreads outward, the condition will be difficult to treat.
