《灵枢·寒热篇》帝曰∶寒热瘰 在颈腋者,何气使生?岐伯曰∶此皆鼠 ,寒
热之毒瓦斯也,留于脉而不去者也。帝曰∶去之奈何?岐伯曰∶鼠 之本,皆在于脏,其末
上出于颈腋之间,浮于脉中,而未内着于肌肉,而外为脓血者易去也。帝曰∶去之奈何?
岐伯曰∶请从其本引其末,可使衰去,而绝其寒热,审按其道以取之,徐往徐来以去之。
其小如麦者,一刺知,三刺而已。(按∶经言其末出于颈项、肩上、缺盆,当于手足少阳

一方:大蜘蛛(屋檐角结网的,五枚,晒干。)研成细末,用酥油和酒调得像面霜一样稠度,每天两次,贴敷患处。
另一方:治疗风邪引起的肿胀、瘰疬及红肿,用地松(捣碎成末)。用香油调和后外敷,新鲜的则烂捣后外敷。
《外台秘要》治疗疮疡:僵蚕(炒制,研成末。)用水调服五分,每日一服,半个月见效。
一方:马齿苋阴干,烧成灰但保留药性,腊月猪油调和,外敷。先用温淘米水浸泡清洗疮口,擦干后敷药,每月两次。
《肘后备急方》:治疗瘰疬初起像毒核一样,应当迅速消除它。海藻(一斤,洗净。)加酒一升,浸泡数日,慢慢饮用使其自行消散。
又一方:七月七日日出时采集芝麻花,五月五日采集麻叶,将这两样东西晒干做成艾炷,在患处施灸一百壮,有效。

《灵枢·寒热篇》黄帝问:颈部和腋下的寒热瘰疬,是什么气导致的?岐伯说:这都是鼠瘰,是寒热毒气,停留在脉中而不消散。黄帝问:如何去除它?岐伯说:鼠瘰的根本在于脏腑,其末端向上出于颈腋之间,浮行于脉中,尚未深入肌肉,而外表化为脓血的容易去除。黄帝问:如何去除它?岐伯说:请顺着病本引导病末,可以使病情衰退,断绝寒热,仔细审察经络之道来取穴,进针慢出针慢以祛除病邪。小的如麦粒大小的,刺一次见效,刺三次痊愈。(按语:经文说病末出于颈项、肩上、缺盆,应当在手足少阳经取穴。针刺与艾灸参考以下穴位。)
天井 肩井 曲池(各灸五壮)。肘尖(上述穴位均属于手少阳经。)
疮疡出于脸颊下方及颊车部位的,应当在手足阳明经取穴,参考以下穴位:
一种方法:手掌向上举至肩部微抬,肘骨尖端即是穴位,根据疮疡位置施灸,疮在右边就灸右手,疮在左边就灸左手。艾炷大小如筷子头。再次施灸如前法,三次后永远平安无事。如果患病四年,用药不退,辰时施灸,申时脓疱即破溃脱落,说明病邪感受较深,施灸三次即可安宁。仍以蒜片贴在疮上,施灸五到七壮,换蒜再灸,多灸几次,效果显著。
One prescription: Large spiders (those weaving webs in the corners of eaves, five pieces, dried.) ground into fine powder, mixed with butter and wine to a consistency like face cream, applied twice daily.
Another prescription: For wind-induced swelling, scrofula (Lymphadenitis), and red swelling, use Di Song (Dandelion, *Taraxacum mongolicum*). Crush into powder. Mix with sesame oil for external application; fresh ones are crushed and applied directly.
*Waitai Mi Yao* (Secret Essentials of the Outer Cabinet) for treating sores: Silkworms infested by fungi (fried, ground into powder.) Mixed with water, take 5 fen orally, once daily, effective within half a month.
One prescription: Purslane (*Portulaca oleracea*) dried in shade, burned to ash retaining its properties, mixed with lard from the twelfth lunar month for application. First, soak and wash the sore with warm rice-washing water, dry it, then apply the medicine, twice a month.
*Zhou Hou Bei Ji Fang* (Handbook of Prescriptions for Emergencies): For early-stage scrofula resembling toxic nodules, it is advisable to eliminate them quickly. Kelp (*Laminaria japonica*, one jin, washed clean.) Steeped in one sheng of wine for several days, drink slowly to allow spontaneous resolution.
Another prescription: Collect sesame flowers at sunrise on the seventh day of the seventh lunar month, and hemp leaves on the fifth day of the fifth lunar month. Dry both ingredients and form them into moxa cones. Apply 100 moxibustion treatments (Zhuang) on the affected area; this is effective.
Another prescription: Use raw Scrophulariae Radix (Xuan Shen, *Scrophularia ningpoensis*) mashed and applied externally, changing twice daily.
In the *Ling Shu · Han Re Pian* (Spiritual Pivot · Cold-Heat Chapter), the Yellow Emperor asked: What qi causes cold-heat scrofula in the neck and axilla? Qibo replied: These are all cases of Shu Lue (Rat Scrofula/Tuberculous Lymphadenitis), caused by cold-heat toxic vapors remaining in the vessels without dissipating. The Yellow Emperor asked: How to remove them? Qibo said: The root of Shu Lue lies in the Zang organs, while its branches emerge upwards between the neck and axilla, floating in the vessels, not yet deeply rooted in the muscles, but manifesting externally as pus and blood; these are easy to remove. The Yellow Emperor asked: How to remove them? Qibo said: Please follow the root to guide the branch, which can cause decline and eliminate cold-heat. Carefully examine the meridians to select points, entering and withdrawing needles slowly to dispel the pathogen. Those small as wheat grains respond after one puncture and are cured after three. (Note: The classic states that the branches emerge from the neck, shoulders, and clavicular fossa; points should be selected from the Hand and Foot Shaoyang meridians. Acupuncture and moxibustion refer to the following acupoints:)
Tianjing (TE10), Jianjing (GB21), Quchi (LI11) (Moxibustion 5 Zhuang each). Zhoujian (Extra point above elbow tip) (All the above points belong to the Hand Shaoyang Sanjiao Meridian.)
For sores emerging below the cheek or at Jiache (ST6), points should be selected from the Hand and Foot Yangming meridians, referring to the following acupoints:
Hegu (LI4), Zusanli (ST36) (Moxibustion 7 Zhuang each).
One method: Raise the hand palm-up to the shoulder slightly, the tip of the elbow bone is the acupoint. Moxibustion is applied according to the location of the sore; if the sore is on the right, moxa the right hand; if on the left, moxa the left hand. The moxa cone should be the size of a chopstick head. Repeat moxibustion as before; after three times, there will be no recurrence. If suffering for four years with no improvement from medication, applying moxa at Chen hour (7-9 AM) will result in rupture/shedding at Shen hour (3-5 PM), indicating deeper pathogenic influence; three sessions of moxibustion will bring relief. Additionally, place slices of garlic on the sore and moxa 5-7 Zhuang, replace garlic and continue moxibustion; multiple applications yield good results.
Another method: Tie a thread around the neck, let it hang down to the nipple level, mark the position where it crosses the center of the spine with a copper coin; this is the acupoint. Apply 5 Zhuang of moxibustion. After moxibustion, administer purgative or promoting circulation medicines.
