Whenever a sore has been ulcerated for a long time, with profuse discharge of pus and blood, leading to the exhaustion of Qi and Blood, making recovery impossible, this accounts for eight or nine out of ten cases. This is often due to excessive sexual activity causing the sore to rot and produce excessive secretions, with necrotic tissue remaining while new granulation fails to grow; the newly formed tissue frequently exudes clear fluid due to the slickness of the necrotic tissue. There are also cases where, due to improper treatment methods, the condition persists for several years without healing. Internally, one should administer Buzhong Yiqi Tang (Tonify the Middle and Augment the Qi Decoction) added with herbs that promote the expulsion of toxins externally. Externally, wash the sore with medicinal water, then take dried mulberry branches, ignite one end, blow out the flame, and hold the smoldering tip near the sore. Keep it at a slight distance so as not to cause pain, but not too far away, otherwise there will be no benefit. The ideal effect is achieved when the area feels warm and slightly itchy. Perform this several times a day, but do not moxa excessively. Shortly after, apply Shengji Gaun (Flesh-Regenerating Ointment) to achieve miraculous results.

Generally speaking, for yaws (Yangmei Chuang) that have persisted for a long time, forming deep ulcers exposing bone, as well as chronic gan chuang (chancre), Xuefeng Chuang (Blood Wind Sore), stubborn tinea, scabies, etc., which fail to heal despite numerous treatments: this is because over time, the heart spirit becomes depleted, sexual restraint is neglected, dietary restrictions are ignored, and care is inadequate. Thus, the sore becomes stubborn and resistant to treatment. One must realize that individuals vary in deficiency and excess, Qi and Blood vary in deficiency and excess, and sores vary in deficiency and excess. Differentiate clearly based on these principles. For deficiency patterns, administer Buzhong Yiqi Tang (Tonify the Middle and Augment the Qi Decoction) combined with internal support and detoxifying herbs for 30–40 doses. Adjust according to the degree of Qi and Blood balance and the vitality of the sore. Once Qi and Blood are harmonious and the sore shows signs of activity, use herbal moxa sticks (Nianzi) for fumigation; it will heal without frequent applications. After healing, continue taking a few doses of detoxifying and harmonizing herbs to ensure stability. This is the key to hundred-percent efficacy. For excess patterns, internally疏导 (shu) the toxin to ensure free flow in the intestines and stomach, eliminating stagnation. When Qi and Blood harmonize, the sore will lighten. Then, use herbal moxa sticks for fumigation to achieve cure. Follow up with a few doses of detoxifying and tonifying herbs to stabilize health. Treatments such as Baxian Deng (Eight Immortals Lamp), Guichuihuo (Ghost Blowing Fire), and Sansheng Nianzi (Three Sages Moxa Sticks) are all miraculously effective. People who do not understand these methods only discuss pros and cons and discard them. Could the prescriptions of ancient sages be erroneous? Users must be detailed, cautious, and flexible in their application.

"Dian" (Pointing/Spotting) means transformation and dispersion. When a sore first forms, its base is still mobile, and the pathogenic toxin is just coagulating. Internally administer formulas that internally疏导 (shu) and internally support (tuo). Externally, apply five li of Jiangxia Fenshuang (Calomel Powder) by spotting. It will resolve immediately. The affected area should not exceed one fen in size. This is an external therapeutic technique. I have sought this method for many years, and it yields immediate results within the expected timeframe. This is a secret immortal prescription from the Xuanmen (Mysterious Gate) school. Who can know it? I record it below for the benefit of future generations, which would be a great fortune.
