人面疮,古言有生者,近世之罕闻矣。其生病异,而受之必异,疮象全似人面,眼鼻俱全,多生膝上,亦
有臂患者。……服十全流气饮,外用贝母为末敷之,乃聚眉闭口,次用生肌敛口药,亦可得愈矣。
十全流气饮(见流注门)
误吞针刺哽咽疼痛者,用乱麻筋一团,搓龙眼大,以线穿系,留线头在外汤湿,急吞下咽,顷刻扯出,其
针头必刺入麻中同出;如不中节,再吞再扯,以出为度。误吞铜物者,多食荸荠,化坚为软;若吞铁骨之物,
肠中不能转送觉坠者,多食青菜、猪脂,自然送入大肠,从粪同出。诸骨哽喉,用玉簪花根八钱,各随所犯之
肉为引煎汤服之,转出乃愈。又诸骨哽于咽下,不能外出者;乌龙针推之,骨下则安矣。
乌龙针∶治骨哽于咽下难出者。用细铁线烧软,双头处用黄蜡作丸龙眼大,裹铁丝头上,外用丝绵裹之,
推入咽内梗骨处,其骨自然顺下矣,不下再推。
又方治诸骨哽喉,玉簪花根切片煎汤漱之,徐徐吐出,其骨自软,再用干饭咽之自下。
砒毒者,阳精大毒之物,服之令人脏腑干涸,皮肤紫黑,气血乖逆,败绝则死。初服知觉早者,大兰根叶
捣汁灌之,轻则可解。无兰处,以生绿豆同水研烂,以水灌之,多则为效;如不解者,以金汁灌之必苏。苏后
如颠不语者,每日以绿豆水饮之,毒尽则愈。
取金汁法∶用大毛竹一连二节,用刀劈去外青一半,用砖扎节中,沉入大粪池内,一年后取起,以长流水
浸一日,取起钻开节孔,内蓄粪清,瓷罐收贮。凡遇有中砒毒、河豚、伤寒阳毒发狂、疔疮、痧症,毒瓦斯入里,
烦躁口干,渴欲饮水,脉大有力者,并宜此药。
Renmian Chuang (Human-faced Ulcer), as mentioned in ancient texts, was once said to occur, but it is rarely heard of in recent times. Its etiology varies, and the pathogenic factors are distinct; the ulcer resembles a human face completely, with eyes and nose fully formed. It mostly occurs above the knee, but can also appear on the arm. ... Administer Shiquan Liuqi Yin (Ten-Ingredient Decoction for Promoting Qi Circulation) [see section on Liuzhu], and externally apply powdered Fubei Mu (Fritillariae Bulbus). The ulcer will then resemble a person gathering its eyebrows and closing its mouth. Subsequently, apply medicines that promote tissue regeneration and close the wound, and recovery can be achieved. Shiquan Liuqi Yin (see section on Liuzhu)
In cases of accidentally swallowing a needle causing throat obstruction, pain, and difficulty in swallowing, take a ball of hemp fiber, roll it into the size of a longan fruit, thread it with a string leaving an end outside, wet it with water, and quickly swallow it down. Pull it out shortly after; the needle head will inevitably pierce the hemp and come out together. If unsuccessful, repeat swallowing and pulling until the needle is expelled. For accidental swallowing of copper objects, consume many fresh water chestnuts (Biqie, 荸荠) to soften the hardness. If iron bones or similar hard objects are swallowed and cannot move through the intestines, causing a sensation of heaviness, consume plenty of green vegetables and pork fat to naturally guide them into the large intestine for excretion with feces. For various bones stuck in the throat, use 8 qian of Yuzanhua Gen (Uvulariae Radix), decocted with water along with appropriate guiding herbs according to the affected area, and drink the soup; the bone will be expelled and the patient cured. In cases where bones are stuck below the pharynx and cannot exit, push them down using Wulong Zhen (Black Dragon Needle), which will settle the bone safely.
Wulong Zhen: Treats bones stuck below the pharynx that are difficult to expel. Use fine iron wire, heat it until soft, form a longan-sized pill with yellow wax at both ends, wrap the tip of the iron wire with this wax, and further wrap it with silk floss. Push it into the pharynx to the site of the impacted bone; the bone will naturally slide down. If it does not descend, push again.
Another prescription for treating various bones stuck in the throat: Slice Yuzanhua Gen (Uvulariae Radix), decoct with water, gargle, and slowly spit out. The bone will naturally soften, then swallow dry rice to help it pass down.
Pishuang Du (Arsenic Poisoning): Pishuang (Realgar/Orpiment/Arsenic compounds) is a substance of extreme toxicity derived from yang essence. Ingestion causes the internal organs to become dry and depleted, the skin to turn purple-black, qi and blood to become reversed and chaotic, leading to collapse and death. If detected early after ingestion, crush the leaves of Dalan Genye (Radix Isatidis/Isatis Root Leaves - *Note: Text says 'Da Lan', likely referring to Isatis root or similar detoxifying herb*) and squeeze out the juice to administer orally; mild cases can be resolved. In areas without Dalan, grind raw Lüdou (Mung Bean) with water into a paste and administer with water; a larger dose is more effective. If there is no improvement, administer Jinzhi (Golden Juice) to ensure revival. After revival, if the patient is mute like a manic patient, administer Mung Bean water daily until the toxin is exhausted and recovery occurs.
Method for obtaining Jinzhi (Golden Juice): Take a section of two joints of large bamboo, split off half of the outer green skin with a knife, bind the middle of the joint tightly with bricks, and submerge it in a large manure pit. After one year, retrieve it, soak it in running water for one day, retrieve it again, drill open the joint holes. The liquid inside is the fermented urine/feces filtrate. Store in porcelain jars. This medicine is suitable for arsenic poisoning, pufferfish poisoning, Yang-toxicity madness due to Shanghan (Cold Damage), Dingchuang (Carbuncle/Furuncle), Sha Zheng (Sha Syndrome), when toxic vapors enter the interior causing restlessness, dry mouth, thirst for drinking, and a large, forceful pulse.
