Jiyan Fang (Collected Proven Prescriptions) treats carbuncles and swellings: pain upon deep pressure indicates a deep-seated disease; pain upon slight pressure indicates a superficial disease; indentation that does not rebound after pressing indicates no pus. Indentation that rebounds immediately after pressing indicates the presence of pus. After the pus is completely drained, take ash from white reeds (Bai Di), leach it with water to obtain the juice, and decoct it until it becomes like paste. This medicine should not be prepared in advance; if prepared, it loses efficacy after ten days. It can also remove black nevi (Heizi). The medicine applied to the nevus should be wiped off immediately; otherwise, it will damage the skin. Another method using mulberry bark ash is also excellent.
Whenever incising areas where flesh is thickened due to various conditions, one must first widely seal the four sides. Otherwise, if the sore cracks open and Qi leaks out, death will ensue, which is incurable. (The above views are consistent with Fan Wang.)
For chronic carbuncles leaving behind bluish-black discoloration, use Wen Chilong (Warm Red Dragon, a specific treatment). Take pig manure, burn it to ash, sieve it through fine silk, and apply the powder into ulcers and necrotic sores until full. When fluid exudes and detaches, apply the powder again. Continue application until recovery. If greenish necrotic tissue regrows, apply Bai Lian (Ampelopsis Radix) and Ru (such as Huang Qin/Coptidis Rhizoma or similar heat-clearing herbs) lightly as before. (From Volume 8)
Qianjin Yi Fang (Supplement to Essential Prescriptions for Value of a Thousand Gold): If illness onset occurs on Wu Zi days (Rat days) at midnight, Wu Chou days (Ox days) at cockcrow, Wu Yin days (Tiger days) at dawn; Wu Mao days (Rabbit days) at sunrise, Wu Chen days (Dragon days) at mealtime, Wu Si days (Snake days) at late morning; Wu Wu days (Horse days) at noon, Wu Wei days (Goat days) at afternoon sun decline, Wu Shen days (Monkey days) at late afternoon; Wu You days (Rooster days) at sunset, Wu Xu days (Dog days) at twilight, Wu Hai days (Pig days) at nightfall. Illnesses occurring on these days and hours are generally fatal. (From Volume 23)

When Bai Zhi turns yellow, the plaster is ready. Cut old cloth with scissors, apply the plaster according to the size of the sore, and change once day and night. For treating carbuncles where pus has ulcerated and purple hard flesh remains unresolved, use this powder mixed with head material to cauterize.

Formula for Firm, Hard Carbuncles Unresponsive to Other Medicines. Slice Fu Zi (Aconiti Lateralis Radix Praeparata) like chess pieces, thickness of one finger. Place directly on the swelling. Moisten Fu Zi with saliva, roast over fire until heat penetrates. When Fu Zi dries, re-moisten with saliva. Constantly allow heat to enter the swelling. All cases heal. This method is exquisite.
