Processing

Grind the ingredients into a fine powder; use sorghum paste to form pills the size of a bean, slightly flattened, and air-dry them; also make medicinal threads resembling ephedra.

Benefits

Effective for scrofula, hemorrhoids with fistulas, the “Six Tumors,” and malignant sores.

Instructions for Use

First, apply an iron-pot ointment to the head of the scrofula until it turns black; then apply this pill-shaped medicated plaster over it, changing the dressing once every three days. If all the necrotic tissue has not been completely removed, use a lower-grade pill and Needle-Tip Powder to completely remove the necrotic tissue; if only the pus remains and does not dry up, sprinkle the Tissue-Regenerating and Pus-Drying Powder on the wound and apply the medicated plaster.To promote tissue regeneration, promptly apply the Tissue-Regenerating Powder to the wound and cover it with the ointment patch.
