The *Guangji Fang* formula for treating infants with open fontanels that fail to close.
Fangfeng (Saposhnikoviae Radix, 6 fen) Baiji (Bletillae Rhizoma) Baiziren (Biota Semen, each 4 fen).
Pulverize the above three herbs, mix with milk, and apply to the fontanelle. Continue application until the fontanelle closes. (Identical to *Qianjin Fang*).
Fan Wang's formula for treating young children with enlarged brain/head, open fontanels failing to close, and limbs too small to support the head, persisting until age three. This is a warming compress formula.
Banxia (Pinelliae Rhizoma) Xiongqiong (Ligusticum Chuanxiong Rhizoma, each 1 sheng) Xixin (Asari Radix et Rhizoma, 2 liang) Guixin (Cinnamomi Cortex Ramulus, 3 chi) Wutou (Aconiti Radix, 10 pieces).
Chop the above five herbs, soak in 4 sheng of pure wine for a period of time. Warm the mixture with cotton wadding and apply as a compress to the infant's fontanelle, two or three times morning and evening. After twenty days, the condition will strengthen naturally.
(*Qianjin Fang* specifies Guixin as 1 chi and adds Shengjiang [Zingiberis Rhizoma Recens], 1 sheng).
*Qianjin Fang* formula for treating infants with sunken fontanels.
Moxibustion at points half an cun above and below the umbilicus, at the end of the Jiwei bone, and on the Foot-Taiyin Spleen channel, one moxa cone per point.
Another prescription:
Boil pig jawbone, extract the marrow, and apply to the fontanelle until healed. Raw application is also acceptable.
*Qianjin Fang* formula for treating infants with Jie Lu (delayed closure of fontanels/cranial sutures).
Shetui (Ophichthidis Corium), roasted and pulverized.
Mix this single herb with marrow from the pig's jawbone and apply to the skull, three times daily.

Xixin (Asari Radix et Rhizoma) Guixin (Cinnamomi Cortex Ramulus, each 1 fen) Ganjiang (Zingiberis Rhizoma, 3 fen).
Pulverize the above herbs into a powder, mix with milk, and apply to the skull. Reapply when dry. Healing occurs when the infant's face becomes red.
*Jiyan Fang* formula for treating infant scalp sores, moon-erosion sores, cheilitis, and snail-ring sores, using Huanglian Hufen Gao San (Coptis and Lead White Paste Powder):
Huanglian (Coptidis Rhizoma, 2 liang) Hufen (Plumbum Subacetatum) Shuiyin (Hydrargyrum, pulverized separately, each 1 liang).
Pulverize the above three ingredients. Mix with water and grind the Hydrargyrum until well combined. Apply to the sores. Even if yellow exudate forms a new sore surface, continue applying the powder; it will heal. An alternative method: add 1 liang of calcined Bai Fan (Alumen) and 1 liang of Shechuangzi (Cnidii Fructus) powder; this is also highly effective. Apply from the ear to the neck.
Another formula for treating infant ear sores:
Apply powdered ash from burned horse bones.
Another prescription:
Applying Ji Si Bai (Galli Stercus Album) is excellent.
*Guangji Fang* formula for treating infants with continuous umbilical discharge accompanied by redness and swelling, using Baishi Zhi San (White Stone Lipite Powder):
Grind 1 liang of Baishi Zhi (Halloysitum Rubrum) into powder, heat it until warm, and apply to the umbilical sore. This is very effective. (Identical to *Qianjin Fang*).
*Beiji Fang* formula for treating sores growing in the infant's umbilicus:
Apply mulberry juice to the nipple/breast, allowing the infant to suck and drink it. (Identical to *Qianjin Fang*).
Another prescription:
Give the infant sheep milk to drink. (Identical to *Qianjin Fang*).
Another prescription:
Apply dust from the east wall. This is very effective. (*Qianjin Fang* states: if discharge persists, burn Cang Er Zi [Xanthii Fructus] and apply).
Another prescription:
Mix ash from burned steamer bands with ointment and apply. (Identical to *Qianjin Fang*).
Another formula for umbilical discharge in infants born one hundred days old:
Apply ash from burned crimson silk to the umbilicus. (Identical to *Qianjin Fang*).
Another formula for redness and swelling of the infant's umbilicus:
Xingren (Armeniacae Semen Amarum, 2 fen) Marrow from pig jawbone.
First pulverize the Xingren, mix with the marrow to form a paste, and apply to the umbilicus. (Identical to *Qianjin Fang*).
*Gujin Luyan Fang* formula for infant wind-induced umbilical discharge, using Gancao San (Licorice Powder):
Gancao (Glycyrrhizae Radix et Rhizoma, processed) Lougu (Galagae Asinae Foetus, roasted, each 3 fen).
Pulverize the above two herbs into a powder, place inside the umbilicus, and continue until healed. This is very effective.
Another formula for persistent umbilical discharge in infants, using Huangbai Hei San (Phellodendri Black Powder):
Huangbai (Phellodendri Cortex, processed, 1 liang) Fudi Mo (Carbonis Caulis Bambusae in Taenia, 4 fen).
Pulverize and mix the above two ingredients into a powder, and apply to the umbilicus for healing.
Another formula for dampness affecting the infant's umbilicus, using warm Yan Chi Yi (Salt and Fermented Soybean Compress):
Yan (Sal) Chi (Sojae Semen Praeparatum), equal parts.
Pulverize and mix the above two ingredients into cakes the size of a coin. Heat them on a new tile and apply as a warm compress to the umbilicus until healed. Alternatively, applying Huangbai powder is also effective.
Liu Shi's formula for newborns up to seven days old, where the umbilical cord is about to fall off, using a sealing medicine:
Xiong Shushi (Mus Mummificatus, 7 grains) Ganjiang (Zingiberis Rhizoma, size of a jujube pit) Hufen (Plumbum Subacetatum, 3 fen, processed) Shexiang (Moschus, a small amount) Fei Mian Hui (Ash of crimson silk).
Pulverize and grind the above five ingredients into a powder. Observe the umbilical cord; if it is about to fall but has not yet done so, apply the powder. This prevents wind pathogen invasion. Ganjiang is added to prevent pain, but omitting it is also acceptable.
