Li Shizhen stated: Even tattered curtains and covers are not discarded by sages; wood shavings and bamboo scraps attract the attention of the wise. Nothing is useless. A jar floating in mid-stream can save a drowning person, and felt from a snow cellar can rescue someone in danger; nothing is too humble to be important. Although silk articles and utensils may seem trivial, they can achieve miraculous results when urgently needed. How can they be despised or treated with negligence? In previous editions of Materia Medica, these items were scattered across the Herbs (Caoben), Trees (Muben), Minerals and Stones (Yushi), Insects and Fish (Chongyu), and Human (Ren) sections. Now, those suitable for medical use have been collected, totaling seventy-nine species, forming the "Wearable Silk and Utensils" section. This is divided into two parts: "Wearable Silk" and "Utensils." Among them, there are sixteen species from the Herbs section, nineteen from the Trees section, two from the Minerals and Stones section, five from the Insects and Fish section, and one from the Human section, totaling forty-three species.
Four species recorded in *Bie Lu* (Commentary by Tao Hongjing of Liang Dynasty). Three species recorded in *Tang Bencao* (Su Gong of Tang Dynasty). Thirty-four species recorded in *Bencao Shiyi* (Chen Cangqi of Tang Dynasty). One species from the Herbs section (*Shiliao Bencao* by Meng Shen of Tang Dynasty).

[Etymology]: Li Shizhen stated: Brocade is woven with five-colored silk threads to form patterns. Hence, the character "Jin" (Brocade) contains the radical "Bo" (silk) and "Jin" (gold/metal), indicating phonetic similarity and its precious nature. It is mentioned in the *Yu Gong* chapter regarding Yanzhou...
[Therapeutic Actions]: Old Brocade: Decocted juice is taken orally to treat Gu poison (parasitic disease). Burned to ash and applied topically to treat heat sores in infants' mouths (Chen Cangqi). Burned to ash, it treats hemorrhage and lower gastrointestinal bleeding.
[Prescriptions]: Two new prescriptions.
Unceasing Hematemesis: Burn three cun of red brocade to ash, take with water. (*Shenghui Fang*)
Upper Asthma and Rapid Breathing: Burn one cun of old brocade to ash, take with tea. The effect is miraculous. (*Puji Fang*)

[Etymology]: Li Shizhen stated: Juan (plain silk) is a sparse silk fabric. Raw silk is called Juan, while cooked/boiled silk is called Lian. For medicinal use, yellow silk Juan is employed, which is woven from the yellow silk spun by silkworms, not dyed.
[Therapeutic Actions]: Yellow Silk Juan: Decocted juice is taken orally to stop Xiao Ke (wasting-thirst syndrome), treat bladder damage in postpartum women, and wash ulcerated smallpox lesions. Burned to ash, it stops bloody dysentery, lower bleeding, hematemesis, and metrorrhagia. (Li Shizhen)
Fei Juan (Red Silk): Burned to ash and added to antimalarial medicines. (Li Shizhen)
[Prescriptions]: Three new prescriptions.
Metrorrhagia in Women: Take 5 fen of ash from yellow silk Juan, 1 qian of palm frond ash, and 5 fen each of Cyathula root ash, Jingmo (Beijing ink) ash, and lotus leaf ash. Mix with water and wine and take orally to stop bleeding immediately. (*Jijian Fang*)
Postpartum Bladder Damage: Characterized by continuous dribbling of urine. Take three chi of yellow silk Juan, leach charcoal ash with water to obtain lye, and boil the silk until extremely soft. Rinse thoroughly with clean water. Add half liang of yellow beeswax... [text missing] ...named Gubao San (Bladder-Stabilizing Powder), with significant efficacy. Another method: If the bladder is injured during childbirth, resulting in an inability to urinate normally for a whole day, with only continuous dampness/dribbling. Take one chi of raw yellow silk Juan, one qian each of powdered white peony root bark and Bletilla striata (Baiji), add two bowls of water, and boil until the silk dissolves like syrup. Take this preparation. Silence should be maintained during administration. (*Furen Liangfang*).
