Stibnite (Xinshi, 0.5 qian) White Alum (Baifan, 1 liang) Mirabilite (Puxiao, 1 liang) Myrrh (Moyao, 0.5 qian) Frankincense (Ruxiang, 0.5 qian) Musk (Shexiang, a small amount) Green Vitriol (Lvfan, 1 liang)
Use an iron or copper pot. First place Stibnite at the bottom of the pot, cover it with White Alum, then cover that with Green Vitriol, and finally cover with Mirabilite. Heat until they melt into water, add powdered Frankincense and stir evenly. Apply three times a day; the hemorrhoids will naturally scab and fall off.
Another prescription: Soak Bitter Orange (Zhike) in water to remove the pith. Take every two slices, remove the peel, place one seed of Croton Tiglium (Badou) inside, bind tightly with cotton thread, and place in a silver or ceramic vessel. Add rice vinegar to a depth of one finger's width above the herbs. Boil until the vinegar is dry, remove the Croton seeds, dry by roasting, and grind into powder. Make pills using vinegar paste as a binder. Take ten pills each time on an empty stomach, swallowed with tea infusion, or simply swallowed with saliva.
For intestinal wind with bleeding (Changfeng xiaxue), decoct Pingwei San (Calm the Stomach Powder) with Dipsacus Asperoides (Xuduan). Another variation: Add forty-nine grains of Wheat (Xiaomai) to Pingwei San, omitting Dipsacus. For sores on hemorrhoids, take equal parts of December Lotus Seedpod (Lalianpeng) and smolder them slowly in a pot over low heat to fumigate the affected area. Another method: Grind Chinese Gall (Wubeizi) into powder, take 2 qian, and swallow with alcohol mixed with Musk.
Treating Hemorrhoids:
White Alum (4 liang) Green Vitriol (1 fen) Mirabilite (0.5 liang) Stibnite (0.5 liang)
Mix the alum and mirabilite together. Place a small amount in a Jian ware cup, put a lump of Stibnite inside. Coat the surroundings with the remaining medicine. Burn around the hemorrhoids with charcoal fire weighing approximately 2 jin. If using White Alum, reduce the dosage by half. For rapid effect, mix with saliva for topical application; it will not cause pain. Mix this medicine with Licorice Decoction (Gancao Tang) for application; it stays effective for a long time without damaging the skin and causes no pain.
Subsequently, wash the area with hot Rhizoma Imperatae (Maogen) decoction, then apply the medicine. Change the dressing three to five times during the day and night. Pain attacks are always accompanied by constipation of the large intestine; take Kechang Wan (Intestine-Loosening Pills) to promote bowel movement. Do not use smoke fumigation, as smoke entering the intestines causes harm. In summer months, add Baicaoshuang (Soot from Hundred Herbs) and Hongdan (Lead Monoxide) for mixing and application. If the hemorrhoid has fallen off and the anus is swollen and painful, wash with decoction of Sophora Root Bark (Huai Pi), wash with saliva, and apply ground Zhi Ke (Bitter Orange) from tiles. If the anus is lax and cannot retract, wash/apply with decoction of Equisetum Ramosissimum (Muzei) and Mirabilite. One or two applications will be effective. Before the hemorrhoid falls off, decoct Huangpi Bohe (Yellow Bark Mint) and mix with saliva for application to the anus; this is especially good in summer.
Washing Prescription: Use this initially for washing. Twig of Akebia (Mutong), Scutellaria Baicalensis (Huangqin), Phellodendron Amurense (Huangbai), Black Soybean (Heidou). Decoct until hot and wash immediately for three times.
