Take one chicken egg, pierce a small hole, remove the yolk and keep only the albumen (egg white), insert one raw Pinelliae Rhizoma (Banxia), warm it gently over a low fire until hot, and consume the albumen.

1 liang of Borax (Pengsha), 1 qian of Mirabilite (Yuanmingfen), 2 qian of Pericarpium Arecae Seedae (Hezi Rou), 1 qian of Arisaema cum Bile (Danning), and 3 fen of Borneolum Syntheticum (Bingpian), all ground together into powder. Additionally, use 1 liang of Prunus mume (Wumei), pounded into a paste. Form pills the size of a longan seed. Use one pill each time, hold in the mouth to dissolve slowly; recovery occurs after several times.
Another prescription: Take 2 jin of Porcine Adipose (Zhuyou), render and strain the dregs, add 1 jin of White Honey (Baimi), refine again briefly, strain thoroughly, pour into a porcelain vessel, and wait for it to solidify into an ointment. Take one spoonful at any time. This also treats hoarseness caused by Lung Heat.

Hoarseness in humans is due to excessive sexual activity, leading to the depletion and loss of Yuan Qi (Primordial Qi); even Ginseng Radix et Rhizoma (Renshen) and Cervi Cornu Pantotrichum (Rongsu) are powerless. Only virgin boys or girls aged sixteen or seventeen who have not yet had sexual intercourse should chew one or two Betel Nut (Binglang) from Hainan before eating in the early morning (Wugeng) without rinsing their mouths, and feed them to the patient. Have ten different people chew, repeating ten times; the illness will heal naturally. If the patient is male, a virgin girl chews; if female, a virgin boy chews.
Another prescription: Place fresh, high-quality Sophorae Flos (Huaihua Mi) on a new tile, stir-fry熟ly over a slow fire, keep it nearby, and while walking or sitting, smell it occasionally. Put one or two grains in the mouth, chew, and swallow, ensuring the throat constantly retains the aroma; over time, speech will naturally return.
Another prescription: Raw Alum (Baifan), formed into pills using refined honey, and taken orally.
