This also treats Tujiachuang (scaly baldness). Two taels of pine resin are ground into powder, placed inside scallion tubes and tied securely with thread, boiled in water until dissolved, then the scallions are removed. After cooling and drying, one tael of Huangdan (lead oxide) washed with water, one qian of Wumingyi (magnetite) stir-fried, one qian of Guanfen (white lead) stir-fried, and three fen of Qingfen (calomel) stir-fried are added. All are ground into powder, mixed with sesame oil, and applied.
Alternatively, equal parts of Cicada Slough (Chantui), Snake Slough (Shetui), pine resin, and oily hair are wrapped in coarse paper to form strips, soaked in tung oil from a leaking lamp; once saturated, they are taken out, ignited, and the dripping oil is collected. After cleaning the affected area, the oil is applied by rubbing.
Infants within one month of age often suffer from this condition. Five qian of Gardenia Seed (Zhiren) and two qian of Aconite Root (Fuzi) are stir-fried together until black. The Aconite is selected and removed; only the Gardenia Seed is used, combined with one qian of Angelica Dahurica (Baizhi), ground into powder, and administered by mixing with fennel decoction and灌服 (forcing down) three fen.
Additionally, for infants aged two to three months suffering from abdominal pain, night crying, and incessant regurgitation of milk: One qian of Frankincense (Ruxiang) with oil completely removed, and seven Lamp Flowers (Denghua), are ground into powder. Each dose is two fen, mixed with breast milk and taken orally.
One qian of Plantago Seed (Cheqianzi), three fen of Nutmeg (Roudoukou), five fen of Amomum Fruit (Sharen), one qian each of Tangerine Peel (Chenpi) and Sweet Potato Root (Gange), three fen of Clove Bud (Zidingxiang), five fen of Raw Licorice Root (Sheng Gancao), eight fen of Sour Plum Root (Jiu Shaoyao - *Note: likely refers to Prepared Peony Root*), one qian each of Malt (Maiya) and Chinese Yam (Shanyao) are all ground into fine powder. Each dose is five fen, taken with ginger decoction.
Another prescription: Three qian of glutinous rice flour are mixed with egg white, spread on paper, and applied to the anterior fontanelle. Remove the medicine when diarrhea stops. If vomiting persists, apply this same mixture to the sole of the foot; vomiting will cease immediately with miraculous effect.
Furthermore, for persistent vomiting, absence of umbilical urination, constipation, abdominal distension, cold invasion affecting the stomach after birth, and crying while bending the waist: Use Xiangsu Yin (Fragrant Perilla Decoction): One qian each of Processed Cyperus Rhizome (Zhi Xiangfu) and Purple Perilla Leaf (Zisu), five fen each of Tangerine Peel (Chenpi) and Licorice Root (Gancao), with ginger and scallion as guides, decocted in water and taken orally.
