Treatment for throat carbuncle (Throat Carbuncle), throat tinea (Throat Tinea), and oral canker:
Fengtui (Phoenix Chrysalis, i.e., eggshells from hatched chicks, calcined to retain their properties), Ercha (Catechu), Ganlanhe (Olive Pit, calcined to retain their properties), each in equal parts.
Grind together into a fine powder. For each qian (approx. 3-5g) of powder, add Sanfen (approx. 0.9-1.5g) of Bingpian (Borneol), and insufflate into the affected area.
Suspension abscess of the uvula, swelling and obstructive pain of the tongue (from *Waike Mibao* / Secret Treasures of Surgery):
Wubeizi (Chinese Gall), Baijiangcan (White Silkworm), Gancao (Licorice Root), each in equal parts.
Grind into powder. Use a white plum (Meizi), remove the pit, pound it, and form pills the size of a bullet. Hold in the mouth and slowly chew/swallow; the abscess will naturally rupture.
The book states: Throat tinea is also known as Lung Flower Sore (Lung Flower Sore).
Feng Luzhan said: In cases of Yin deficiency with chronic cough, if throat pain persists for a long time, sores must appear, named Lung Flower Sore. Use Kanli Tang (Kanli Decoction) added with Yuanshen (Scrophularia Root), Jiegeng (Platycodon Root), and Gancao (Licorice Root). Do not use Bingpian (Borneol) insufflations, lest the acrid-dispersing nature causes the sore to ulcerate further. (*Jinnang* / Brocade Pouch)
Chen Shigong said: For all cases of phlegm-fire and consumptive cough where coughing damages the throat causing pain, there is no effective treatment. (*Zhengzong* / Orthodox Standard)
Wang Shengzhi said: Lung Flower Sore is what common people call "fish-scale thorns" growing in the throat; it is difficult to save. (*Lili* / Principles and Examples)
Kui Guang said: Throat thorns mostly occur after suffering from severe consumptive disease. Since there is much rising deficient fire and Ying blood (Nutritive Blood) has already dried up, red spots densely covering the throat like mosquito or flea bites indicate a fatal condition that should not be treated.
Chen Yuan Gong said: Some people develop throat tinea inside the gate of the throat, leading to throat pain. The symptoms must first present as itching, with an unbearable red face and hot ears. Subsequently, swallowing saliva feels dry, requiring repeated swallowing to feel relief. Over time, it takes shape and becomes painful, transforming into red scrofula resembling yangmei (bayberry) lesions, alternating between pain and itching, thus becoming tinea. Tinea necessarily involves insects in the region of the throat. This is due to the depletion of Kidney Water, causing Kidney Fire to rush upward while Lung Metal becomes dry. Concurrently treating insect removal to cure tinea may allow righteous Qi to solidify and evil to scatter, clearing the insects completely. Huaxian Shendan (Divine Elixir for Dissolving Tinea): Yuanshen (Scrophularia Root) and Maidong (Ophiopogon Tuber) each 1 liang (approx. 37.5g); Baizisu (Perilla Seed), Baiwei (Cynanchum Atratum Root), Gancao (Licorice Root), Ziwan (Aster Root), Niuzhizi (Arctii Fructus), Baijiezi (Sinapis Semen) each 1 qian (approx. 3-5g); Bubai (Stemona Root) 3 qian. Decoct in water and take orally. After two doses, pain subsides slightly; after four more doses, the tinea insects die completely. Switch to Runhou Tang (Moistening Throat Decoction): Shudi (Prepared Rehmannia Root), Maidong (Ophiopogon Tuber) each 1 liang; Yiren (Coix Seed) 5 qian; Sangbaipi (Morus Alba Bark), Shengdi (Rehmannia Root) each 3 qian; Shanyurou (Cornus Fruit) 4 qian; Beimu (Fritillaria Bulb), Gancao (Licorice Root) each 1 qian. Decoct in water and take orally. After ten doses, itching and pain are completely removed. Add Rougui (Cinnamon Bark) 1 qian to the formula and take on an empty stomach as a follow-up measure, ensuring absolute safety. (*Bianzheng Bingjian* / Ice Mirror of Differentiation)
Kui Guang said: Throat tinea is caused by rising deficient fire and excessive Lung Metal attacking the jaw joint. It manifests like Ge ware porcelain cracks or red veins on the back of autumn leaves. It obstructs eating and drinking. Although throat pain does not cause immediate death, prolonged cases lead to loss of voice and become incurable.
He also said: For throat tinea, use Bidan (Green Cinnabar Powder) for insufflation, regularly consume paste medicines, and additionally take decoctions with increased Beimu (Fritillaria Bulb) to direct Qi downward. Observing dietary restrictions for one month leads to recovery. (Formula recorded in the Throat Section.)
