Treating Shanghan complicated by oral ulcers. Wang Shuhe stated: The symptoms include ulcers on both lips and bloody saliva. Ulcers like millet grains inside the upper lip indicate heart distress and pain, suggesting parasites are in the upper part eating the Zang organs. Ulcers inside the lower lip with excessive sleepiness suggest parasites are in the lower part eating the lower body organs.
Formula: Take one egg, break the top, pour out the white, mix with one he of lacquer thoroughly until it resembles liquid lacquer, return it to the shell, and swallow while lying on the back. After a meal's time or half a day, worms may be passed or vomited. Severe cases require repeated dosing until cured, eliminating heat and restoring health. For those suffering from heat disease with abdominal heat and poor appetite, where three types of intestinal parasites move seeking food and enter the Zang organs or lower body unnoticed, this medicine can be taken; otherwise, the worms may cause death.
