齐侍御史成，自言病头痛，臣意诊其脉。告曰∶“君之病恶，不可言也。”即出，独告
成弟昌曰∶“此病疽也，内发于肠胃之间，后五日当痈肿，后八日呕脓死，成之病，得之饮
酒且内。”成即如期死。
成既疽发于肠胃，正可剖而洗之，不待其痈肿而呕脓也。虽热上熏阳明，烂流络，至于
头痛，亦岂无药？况其时疽尚未成，痈尚未发，去其烂菌，自无后患。惜乎成之不遇也。（华

本方长期服用，能够增强记忆力，使记忆牢固不忘。配方用量：
柏子仁五两，蛇床子、菟丝子、覆盆子各半升，石斛、巴戟天各二两半，杜仲（炙烤处理）、茯苓、天门冬（去除心部）、远志（去除心部）各三两，天雄（炮制去皮）一两，续断、桂心各一两半，菖蒲、泽泻、薯芋、人参、干地黄、山茱萸各二两，五味子五两，钟乳石（炼制成者）三两，肉苁蓉六两。
以上药材捣碎过筛，用蜂蜜调和制成如梧桐子大小的丸药。初次服用二十丸，逐渐增加至三十丸。服药前需斋戒五日，然后开始服药。服药后二十天，牙齿上的垢腻消除，牙齿洁白如银；二十四天时面色红润光泽；六十天时瞳孔黑白分明，小便无滴沥不尽之症；八十天时四肢滋润，白发变黑，腰背不再疼痛；一百五十天时，精神意气如同少年一般。服完一剂药，药力全面发挥，此时方可进行房事。
主治心气虚弱引起的寒热往来及多种疾病，使人身体肥壮强健。配方用量：
紫石英十两，白石脂、赤石脂、干姜各三十两。
先将十分之一的药量取出，用微火煎煮，分为四次服用，白天服三次，夜间服一次。服药前不要有隔夜的食物积滞，服药后到中午时分再进食。每天按照前面的剂量取药服用，满四十天后停止，药服完后即起身活动，不要专门坐着或躺着，必须让药力遍布全身，在百脉中运行。如果体质特别寒冷的人，春秋季节各服四十丸，每日服用直到病情减退为止。只是服药过多，会导致人体大热，这时就必须服用寒凉药物来压制。
齐国的侍御史成，自称患有头痛病，臣意（淳于意）诊察他的脉搏，告诉他说：“您的病很严重，难以言表。”随即出来，单独告诉成的弟弟昌说：“这是疽病，病灶内部发源于肠胃之间，五天后会出现痈肿，八后会呕吐脓血而死。成的病，是因为饮酒且行房事所致。”成果然如期死去。
成的疽病既已发于肠胃，本来可以剖开清洗病灶，不必等到痈肿形成并呕吐脓血才治疗。虽然热气上熏阳明经，腐蚀流注的络脉，导致头痛，难道就没有药物治疗吗？况且当时疽病尚未完全形成，痈肿尚未发作，清除腐烂的组织，自然没有后患。可惜成未能遇到良医啊。（华佗注释）

Commentary by Hua Tuo on the Biography of Cang Gong (Appendix)
Cheng, the Attendant Physician of Qi, claimed to suffer from headache. Chen Yi (Chunyu Yi) examined his pulse and stated, "Your condition is severe and difficult to describe." He then exited and privately told Cheng's younger brother, Chang, "This is a *Ju* (carbuncle/ulcer) disease, originating internally between the stomach and intestines. In five days, an abscess will swell; in eight days, vomiting of pus will occur, leading to death. Cheng's illness resulted from drinking alcohol and engaging in sexual activity." Cheng indeed died as predicted.
Since Cheng's *Ju* had already manifested in the stomach and intestines, it could have been treated by surgical incision and cleansing, rather than waiting for the abscess to swell and pus to vomit. Although the heat ascended to熏 (moxa/burn) the Yangming Meridian, corroding the collateral vessels and causing headache, was there no medicinal remedy? Moreover, at that time, the *Ju* had not yet fully formed, and the abscess had not erupted. Removing the necrotic tissue would have prevented future complications. Alas, Cheng failed to encounter a skilled physician. (Commentary by Hua Tuo)
