Instructions for Use

Use the hand that ground the medicine to apply it around the edge of the ulcer; if there is no ulcer, spread the ointment evenly to a thickness of 3–4 layers of paper, then cover it with a strip of paper with holes punched in it. If the ointment dries, moisten it by brushing it with a chicken feather dipped in water; repeat this no more than three times.
