Place the palm upward on the shoulder, slightly raise the elbow, and locate the acupoint at the tip of the olecranon (elbow bone). Treat according to the affected side: if the left side is affected, moxa the left; if the right side is affected, moxa the right. Use moxa cones as small as the head of a small tendon, three *zhuang* (moxa cones) per side are sufficient for recovery.
For scrofula ulcers that have already ruptured, this method was taught to an official surnamed Cao in this prefecture. After morning moxibustion, the pus and water had dried by evening. After only two sessions of moxibustion, no scars remained. This method has been used successfully on many others since then.
The wife of Luo An suffered from the condition for four or five years, with crusts resembling snail shells that did not fall off. Moxibustion was applied at Chen hour (07:00–09:00), and the crusts fell off by Shen hour (15:00–17:00). The effect was profound. After three sessions of moxibustion, the root cause was eliminated.
This prescription is from a monk in Kunshan.
