论曰∶凡人往往有鼻中肉塞，眠食皆不快利，得鼻中出息，而俗方亦众，而用之皆无成
效。惟见《本草》云∶雄黄主鼻中息肉，此言不虚。但时人不知用雄黄之法。医者生用，故
致困毙。曾有一人患鼻不得喘息。余以成炼雄黄，日纳一大枣许大，过十日，肉塞自出，当
时即得喘息，更不重发。其炼雄黄法，在仙丹方中具有之，宜寻求也，斯有神验。

[Sheep Lung Powder Formula] Mainly treats nasal polyps protruding:
Ovis aries L. lung (one whole, dried) Atractylodis Macrocephalae Rhizoma (4 liang) Cynomorii Herba (2 liang) Tetsii Caulis (2 liang) Zingiberis Radix Preparata (2 liang) Chuanxiong Rhizoma (2 liang)
The above six herbs are ground into powder. After meals, take the amount of a "fen" (approx. 1-2g) spoonful with rice broth, twice daily. The dosage may be gradually increased to a "fangcun bi" (approx. 3-5g).
Discussion: It is common for people to have fleshy growths blocking the nose, causing discomfort in sleep and eating, and difficulty breathing. Although there are many folk prescriptions, none have been effective. The *Bencao* records that Realgar (Xionghuang) treats nasal polyps, which is true. However, contemporaries do not know how to use Realgar properly. Physicians using raw Realgar often cause severe distress or death. I once treated a patient suffering from nasal obstruction preventing breathing. I used calcined Realgar, inserting a piece the size of a large date daily. After ten days, the polyp naturally expelled, and immediate relief of breathing was achieved without recurrence. The method for calcining Realgar is detailed in the formulas for Immortal Elixirs; one should seek it out, as it yields miraculous results.
