It must be carefully considered before use. This is the treatment method discussed by Xue Ji, which remains unchangeable through the ages. Therefore, the methods for using formulas in treating sores and ulcers are appended below, so that students may keep them firmly in mind.
Xue Ji said: In the treatment of sores and ulcers, if the swelling is high and painful, first use Xianfang Huoming Yin (Immortal Life Elixir) to resolve it, followed by Tuoli Baidu San (Supporting Interior and Resolving Toxin Powder). If the swelling is flat and spreading with slight pain, use Tuoli San (Supporting Interior Powder); if there is no response, add Ganjiang (Dried Ginger) and Rougui (Cinnamon Bark). If pain persists after pus discharge, it indicates a deficiency of Qi and Blood; use Bazhen San (Eight Treasure Powder). If there is no suppuration or ulceration, it indicates a deficiency of Yang Qi; use Sijunzi Tang (Four Gentlemen Decoction) added with Danggui (Angelica Sinensis), Huangqi (Astragalus Root), and Rougui (Cinnamon Bark). If granulation tissue does not grow and the wound does not close, it indicates a deficiency of Spleen Qi; use Sijunzi Tang (Four Gentlemen Decoction) added with Shaoyao (Peony Root) and Muxiang (Aucklandiae Radix). If aversion to cold or feeling cold occurs, it indicates a deficiency of Yang Qi; use Shiquan Dabu Tang (Perfect Ten Great Tonifying Decoction) added with Ganjiang (Dried Ginger) and Rougui (Cinnamon Bark). If afternoon fever or internal heat occurs, it indicates a deficiency of Yin Blood; use Siwu Tang (Four Substance Decoction) added with Renshen (Ginseng Root) and Huangqi (Astragalus Root). If there is nausea or vomiting, it indicates a deficiency of Stomach Qi; use Liujunzi Tang (Six Gentlemen Decoction) added with Paojiang (Prepared Ginger). If spontaneous sweating or night sweats occur, it indicates a deficiency of the Five Zang Organs; use Liuwei Dihuang Wan (Six-Ingredient Pill with Rehmannia) added with Wuweizi (Schisandra Fruit). If food intake is decreased and the body feels fatigued, it indicates a deficiency of Spleen Qi; use Buzhong Yiqi Tang (Tonify the Middle and Augment the Qi Decoction) added with Fuling (Poria) and Banxia (Pinellia Tuber). If panting, shortness of breath, and cough occur, it indicates a deficiency of the Spleen and Lung; use the aforementioned decoction (referring to Buzhong Yiqi Tang) added with Maidong (Ophiopogon Tuber) and Wuweizi (Schisandra Fruit). If there is nausea and reduced food intake, it indicates a deficiency of the Spleen and Stomach; use Renshen Lizhong Tang (Ginseng Regulate the Middle Decoction). If abdominal pain and diarrhea occur due to deficiency-cold of the Spleen and Stomach, use Fuzi Lizhong Tang (Aconite Regulate the Middle Decoction). If heat, thirst, dysuria, or urinary retention occur due to Kidney deficiency and defaming fire, use Jianba Bawei Wan (Modified Eight-Ingredient Pill). Generally, for individuals who are weak and frail, one need not distinguish whether the sore has swollen or ulcerated; one should first tonify Stomach Qi. The occurrence of sores and ulcers stems from the depletion of Yin and Yang. Since the pus has been discharged, the Qi and Blood become even more deficient. How could it be inappropriate to tonify? Some suspect that Renshen (Ginseng Root) and Huangqi (Astragalus Root) cause fullness in the chest and abdomen. Occasionally, some are used, but dispersing and detoxifying agents are added as well, such that the benefit of tonification does not compensate for the damage caused. Furthermore, many have erred because they refused to take tonifying formulas while suffering from illness. Is this not lamentable!
