Cui's method for treating "Wugu" disease (a chronic wasting disease in children, often accompanied by lymphadenopathy) causing sudden masses or pain ("Shanpi") or dryness of the head and scrofula (tuberculous lymphadenitis of the neck). The hair is yellow, brittle, split, and falling out. Or alternating diarrhea and recovery.
There are many symptoms, impossible to list all. Da Huang Decoction Pills Formula:
Da Huang (Rhei Radix et Rhizoma, nine liang; select fresh, solid pieces with brocade-like texture; if slightly rotten, do not use; remove the coarse skin before weighing)
Grind this single herb into powder. Mix with three sheng of high-quality rice vinegar. Place in a copper bowl, set inside a large cauldron over floating water (water-bath heating). Boil over charcoal fire; the fire should not be fierce. Stir the medicine with a bamboo or wooden spatula. Stop when it can be formed into pills. Store tightly sealed in a small porcelain vessel. For a three-year-old child, take seven pills per dose, size like wu-tzu (seed of Sophora japonica). Take twice daily. Usually, stop when greenish-red pus is discharged. If no pus is discharged, or if discharge is scant, slightly increase the number of pills. If discharge is excessive, reduce the number of pills. For severe cases, it may take seven or eight doses to eradicate the root cause. Dosages differ for adults and children; adjust according to circumstances. This medicine only discharges pus and old accumulations, and does not cause diarrhea in children. Avoid beef, horse, donkey, chicken, pork, fish, rabbit meat, as well as raw/cold, sticky/smooth, greasy foods, adzuki beans, and buckwheat. Nursing mothers must observe the same dietary restrictions.
Another method for treating Wugu disease, where there are small nodules on both sides behind the neck:
The root of Wugu disease lies in these nodules. To treat, first observe the size of the nodule. Then select a thin bamboo tube, judging its thickness so it fits over the nodule. Cut the bamboo to break it off. The shape should be like a plaster patch. If thin bamboo tubes are unavailable, mixed oil can also be used. Wait two or three days. Then, perform "Bao Zhen" (a specific acupuncture technique) as before. After another one or two days, pus and fluid will naturally drain. If it does not drain, repeat the needling as before. Wait until the pus is completely drained and the nodule dissipates spontaneously. Folk custom often uses knife incision, called "cutting Wugu." Upon careful examination, this is far inferior to needling to eradicate the root cause. Fearing patients may not understand, I reiterate this point. (All from Volume 7)
