Crush and sift the above four herbs into powder. Take one Fang Cun Bi (a traditional measuring spoon, approx. 2-3g) with wine. Cover to induce sweating. The patient should fall asleep; upon waking, the swelling will dissipate and pain cease. It resolves after one night, with near-perfect efficacy.
Take another Fang Cun Bi the next morning. Avoid wind exposure and hot foods.
The *Shenshi* Shaoyao San formula for resolving breast carbuncle masses and nodules.

Another formula: Baipi Gao for breast carbuncle refractory to other treatments.
Old pig fat (Zhu Gao) is preferred. Use three jin of bark from the Phellodendron tree (Bai Pi), removing the black outer layer. Decoct in pig fat slowly until the bark is cooked and turns black, then strain out. Repeat decocting the remaining bark as initially done. Apply the resulting mixture to the sore; it is highly effective.

Da Huang (Rhei Radix et Rhizoma) (two liang), Mang Cao (Artemisiae Argyi Folium or similar aromatic herb) (two fen), Fu Long Gan (Dragon's House Earth) (twelve fen), Gan Jiang (Zingiberis Rhizoma) (two fen).
Crush the above four herbs into powder. Mix with vinegar and apply to the breast; immediate effect. Ginger alone is also very effective and can be used. (Same as *Qianjin Fang*).
Another formula
Take powder from deer horn (Lu Jiao), sifted. Take one Fang Cun Bi with clear juice from the pig's jaw. No more than two doses. Taking it with vinegar slurry is also good. (*Qianjin Fang* specifies using clarified lard).

Take Bai Jiang Shi (Alumen) and crush into powder, one to two sheng. Mix with egg white to a mud-like consistency. Apply to the swelling. Replace when dry.
