皆不论已溃未溃，均以解毒内托汤主之，外用红玉膏摊贴患处。

痘中杂证
余毒未尽，痘毒滋生，轻则表现为疮疖，重则发展为痈疽。内服解毒汤均可适用，外敷红玉膏亦有效果。
[注]

痘中杂证
The exterior is deficient, allowing wind-pathogens to enter opportunistically, resulting in generalized and facial edema of a deficiency nature. After administering Wupi Decoction (Five-Bark Decoction) combined with Guizhi Tang (Cinnamon Twig Decoction) to induce slight sweating, if the facial edema subsides but body swelling persists, Weiling Tang (Gastrodia and Atractylodes Macrocephala Decoction) should be administered.
[Note]
After smallpox, children often have weak exterior qi. If exposed to wind too early, wind-pathogens enter through the deficiency, causing facial puffiness and generalized edema. Initially, it is appropriate to use Wupi Decoction (Five-Bark Decoction) to induce slight sweating. If, after taking the medicine, the face and eyes are no longer puffy but the body remains swollen, Weiling Tang (Gastrodia and Atractylodes Macrocephala Decoction) is the primary treatment.
(Wupi Decoction / Five-Bark Decoction)
* Cortex Lycii Radicis (Digupi), * Cortex Acanthopanacis Senticosi (Wujiapi), * Cortex Mori Radicis Praeparatus cum Melle (Sangbaipi Zhi Mi), * Ramulus Cinnamomi (Guizhi), * Pericarpium Zingiberis Recens (Jiangpi), * Fructus Citri Grandis (Dafupi, washed). Decoct with * Herba Centellae Asiaticae (Dengxincao) as a guide and water.
(Decoction Verse)
For post-smallpox edema, use Wupi Decoction;
Digupi, Wujiapi, and Sangbaipi prepared with honey;
Guizhi, Jiangpi, and Dafupi combined;
Decoct with Dengxincao water for consumption.
(Weiling Tang / Gastrodia and Atractylodes Macrocephala Decoction) See "Diarrhea" chapter for the formula.

Miscellaneous Syndromes in Smallpox
Residual toxins remain uneliminated, generating smallpox toxins. Mild cases manifest as sores and boils (Chuangjie); severe cases develop into carbuncles (Yong). Internal administration of Jiedu Tang (Detoxification Decoction) is applicable; external application of Hongyu Gao (Red Jade Ointment) is effective.
[Note]
All residual toxins after smallpox arise because during the pustule-filling stage, the toxin qi was too excessive to be fully transformed. It remains stored in the meridians, gathering without dispersing. Mildly, it erupts as sores and boils (Chuangjie); severely, it forms carbuncles (Yong). Whether occurring in areas of thin muscle or at mobile joints, regardless of whether ulcerated or not, Jiedu Neituo Tang (Detoxification and Supporting Interior Decoction) is the primary internal treatment, while Hongyu Gao (Red Jade Ointment) is applied externally to the affected area.
(Jiedu Neituo Tang / Detoxification and Supporting Interior Decoction)
* Radix Astragali Praeparata cum Melle (Sheng Huangqi), * Herba Schizonepetae (Jingjie), * Radix Saposhnikoviae (Fangfeng), * Flos Forsythiae (Lianqiao, heart removed), * Radix Angelicae Sinensis (Danggui), * Radix Paeoniae Rubra (Chishao), * Flos Lonicerae Japonicae (Jinyinhua), * Caulis Glycyrrhizae (Gancao Jie), * Caulis Akebiae (Mutong). Decoct with water.
(Decoction Verse)
Jiedu Neituo Tang is most efficacious;
Huangqi, Jingjie, and Fangfeng together;
Lianqiao, Danggui, and Chishao;
Jinyinhua, Gancao, and Mutong.
(Hongyu Gao / Red Jade Ointment)

Use half jin of Sesame Oil (Xiangyou). First, fry the herbs until scorched, remove the dregs, then add Huangla (Yellow Beeswax), stir evenly, cool to an appropriate temperature, spread, and apply to the affected area.
