For a cleft lip, first use a small acupuncture needle to create three suture points. Take a strand of silk thread, twist pig bristles onto both ends, moisten it with saliva, and apply the wound-sealing powder to the thread. Thread the powder-coated thread through the three suture points to secure them. Then apply anesthetic to the affected area, apply the wound-sealing powder to the incision with scissors,carefully trim away a small amount of skin, then immediately suture the wound with the thread. Apply chicken egg yolk oil to the affected area, spread a thin layer of golden-haired dog’s spine hair over it, and then apply a powdered wound-sealing agent on top. Gently wash away the medication with medicated water once daily, apply oil, and change the dressing once a day. After 8 days, cut the sutures and continue applying the medication.
