隔蒜灸法 治疗一切恶疮毒、剧烈疼痛或不痛、或麻木。如果疼痛,就艾灸直到不痛为止;如果不痛,就艾灸直到感到疼痛为止。
毒素随着火气而消散。因为火有通畅达到的含义,这是“从治”(顺其病势而治)的方法,大有起死回生的验证。用大蒜头切成三文钱厚的片,放在疮头上,用艾炷在蒜上灸三壮,换蒜再灸。未成脓的就消散,已成脓的就溃破,大势已去便不能为害。如果疮很大,将大蒜捣烂摊在疮上,将艾铺在上面烧灼,蒜坏了再换。如果不痛或不化脓,不起发或阴毒疼痛,更应当多灸。灸后仍然不痛、不化脓的属于不治之症,这是因为气血虚弱。
葱熨法 治疗体虚怯弱之人患肿块,或痛或不痛,或风邪侵袭经络、肢体疼痛,或四肢筋挛骨痛;又治疗流注、跌扑损伤肿痛、棒打刺痛以及妇人吹乳、阴症腹痛、手足厥冷等症一并治疗。
用葱头细细切碎捣烂,炒热后敷在患处,冷了再换继续熨烫,肿痛即刻停止,灵验如神。
豆豉饼 治疗疮疡肿硬不溃破及溃破后不收敛,以及一切顽固疮恶疮。
用江西豆豉研为粉末,用唾液调和做成三文钱厚的饼子,放置在患处上,用艾炷灸它,干了就更换。如果疮势大及发背,用水漱口的水调和做成饼,覆盖在患处,将艾铺在饼上灸它。如果未成脓就消散,已成脓就溃破,毒势容易痊愈。如果无效的,是气血虚弱。

Fangfeng Tongsheng San (Saposhnikovia and Scutellaria Decoction to Unblock the Intestines) treats various sores, carbuncles, and toxic swellings with miraculous efficacy. (Formula see Stroke chapter.)
Garlic-Separated Moxibustion Method treats all kinds of malignant sores and toxins, severe pain or no pain, or numbness. If painful, moxibustion is applied until the pain ceases; if not painful, until pain is felt.
The toxin dissipates with the fire. Since fire implies smooth and unimpeded flow, this is a "conforming treatment" (treating according to the disease's trend), which has great verification in reviving the dying. Use a head of garlic sliced to the thickness of a three-wen coin, place it on the sore, and apply three moxa cones (Zhuang) on the garlic, then replace the garlic and continue moxibustion. Those not yet suppurated will resolve; those already suppurated will ulcerate, and the major pathogenic factor will be unable to cause harm. If the sore is large, mash the garlic and spread it on the sore, lay moxa on top and burn it, replacing the garlic when it spoils. If there is no pain, no suppuration, no elevation, or Yin-toxin pain, more moxibustion is especially appropriate. If after moxibustion there is still no pain and no suppuration, it is incurable, due to deficiency of Qi and Blood.
Scallion-Ironing Method treats patients with weak constitution suffering from masses, whether painful or not; wind invading meridians causing limb pain; or tendon spasms and bone pain in the four limbs. It also treats Liu Zhu (flowing deposits), swelling and pain from falls and blows, stabbing pain from clubbing, women's mastitis ("blown breast"), Yin-syndrome abdominal pain, and cold extremities.
Finely chop and pound scallion heads, stir-fry until hot, and apply to the affected area. Replace when cool and continue ironing; swelling and pain stop immediately, efficacious as divine.
Fermented Soybean Cake treats sores and ulcers that are swollen and hard without ulceration, and those ulcerated but not healing, as well as all stubborn and malignant sores.
Use Jiangxi fermented soybeans (Douchi) ground into powder, mix with saliva to form cakes of three-wen-coin thickness, place on the affected area, and moxibustiate. Replace when dry. For large sores and back carbuncles, use water from rinsing the mouth to mix into cakes, cover the affected area, lay moxa on the cake, and moxibustiate. If not suppurated, it resolves; if suppurated, it ulcerates, and the toxic pathogen heals easily. If ineffective, it is due to deficiency of Qi and Blood.
