Instructions for Use

To use, cut a segment 2–3 fen long; apply it to the affected area using sticky rice paper and ignite it. No more than three treatments are needed to eradicate the condition at its root. If the condition does not resolve after moxibustion on specific acupoints, continue moxibustion until the medicine is exhausted; when the skin and flesh blister, the disease will be instantly cured. Perform three moxa cones per session; for severe cases, no more than three sessions are required to eradicate the condition at its root, preventing recurrence.

Note

After moxibustion, avoid pork; resume consumption only after the sore has healed.
