【校正】并入《本草拾遗》中的瓦甑、故甑蔽。
【集解】李时珍说：黄帝开始制作甑和釜。北方人使用瓦甑，南方人使用木甑，少数民族地区的人使用竹甑。修道之人说：凡是甑或釜发出鸣响的，不必惊恐害怕。只要男子行女子跪拜礼，女子行男子跪拜礼，鸣响就会停止，也不会带来灾祸。《感应类从志》记载：瓦甑与枭鸟有契约关系，投掷枭鸟自会停止。注释说：取旧的甑，写上“契”字，放在墙上，当枭鸟鸣叫时投掷它，鸣叫自然停止。
瓦甑
【主治】治疗魇寐不寤（梦魇惊醒困难），用其覆盖在病人脸上，迅速打破它（出自陈藏器）。
甑垢（又名阴胶）
【主治】治疗口舌生疮，刮取甑垢敷贴患处（李时珍）。
【发明】李时珍说：雷斅《炮炙论》序言中提到：知道疮疡的位置，用口点涂阴胶。注释说：取少许甑中的气垢放入口中，就能知道脏腑病变的起源，直达患处，知晓疼痛所在，即可施治。
甑带
【气味】辛，温，无毒。
【主治】煮汁服用，可消除腹胀痛、脱肛、胃反（呕吐）、小便失禁、小便不通及淋证、中恶尸注（一种急性传染病或精神异常病症）。烧成灰后，外封金疮（金属利器造成的伤口），止血止痛，排出刀刃残留物（苏恭）。主治大小便不通、疟疾、妇人带下病、小儿脐疮、重舌（舌下复生一小舌）、夜间啼哭、白癜风（时珍）。
【发明】李时珍说：江南地区用蒲草作为甑带，选取久用腐烂者入药。因为取其长期被蒸汽熏蒸的特性，所以能疏散气滞。
【附方】旧方五首，新方六首。
小便不通：用水四升清洗甑带取得汁液，煮葵子二升半，分三次服用。（《太平圣惠方》）
大小便闭结：将甑带煮汁，调和蒲黄一方寸匕服用，每日三次。（《千金方》）
五色带下病：将甑带煮汁，温服一盏，每日两次。（《千金方》）
小儿下血：将甑带烧成灰，涂抹在乳汁上，让婴儿饮服。（《外台秘要》）
小儿夜啼：将甑带悬挂在门框上，啼哭即止。（《子母秘录》）
小儿重舌：将甑带烧成灰，敷于舌下。（《太平圣惠方》）
小儿鹅口疮：方剂同上。
小儿脐疮：将甑带烧成灰敷贴患处。（《子母秘录》）
五色丹毒：将甑带烧成灰，用鸡蛋清调和，涂抹患处。（《卫生易简方》）
沙芒刺眼：将甑带灰用水送服一钱。（《外台秘要》）
草石卡在咽喉：无法取出。方剂同上。
故甑蔽（出自《本草拾遗》。有的写作“闭”）
【气味】无毒。
【主治】主治石淋（泌尿系结石），烧研后用水送服三指撮。又主治盗汗、疼痛及食复（因饮食不当导致的疾病复发）、下死胎（李时珍）。
【发明】李时珍说：甑蔽具有通气作用，道理似乎优于甑带。雷斅《炮炙论》序言中提到：弊（通“敝”，破旧之意）淡卤。注释说：经常使用旧甑中的蔽，能使咸味变淡。这是事物物理相互感应的结果。
【附方】新方两首。
胎死腹中及胎盘不下：取炊具上的蔽，在门前烧成末，用水送服即可排出。（《千金方》）
骨疽出骨，愈合后复发，骨头从孔中长出，宜在疮上灸治：用一只乌雌鸡，去掉肉只留骨头，烧成炭，以……
(Recorded in the Lower Grade of *Bencao Bie Lu*)
[Correction] Merged with "Tile Steamer" (Wa Zeng) and "Old Steamer Lid" (Gu Zeng Bi) from *Bencao Shiyi*.
[Collected Explanations] Li Shizhen stated: The Yellow Emperor first invented the steamer (Zeng) and the cauldron (Fu). People in the North use tile steamers, people in the South use wooden steamers, and ethnic minorities use bamboo steamers. Practitioners of Daoist arts say: When a steamer or cauldron makes a sound, one should not be frightened. If a man performs a woman's bowing gesture, and a woman performs a man's bowing gesture, the sound will cease, and no disaster will occur. *Ganying Leicong Zhi* records that tile steamers have a pact with owls; throwing an owl stops the noise. The annotation states: Take an old steamer, write the character "Qi" (Contract) on it, place it on the wall, and throw it when an owl cries; the crying will stop naturally.
Tile Steamer (Wa Zeng)
[Indications] For treating nightmare sleep (Yan Mei Bu Wu), cover the patient's face with it and break it quickly (Chen Cangqi).
Steamer Scale (Zeng Gou) (Also known as Yin Jiao)
[Indications] For treating mouth and tongue sores, scrape the scale and apply it topically (Li Shizhen).
[Elucidation] Li Shizhen said: In the preface to Lei Xiao's *Paozhi Lun*, it is mentioned: Knowing the location of the sore, apply Yin Jiao orally. The annotation states: Take a small amount of the gaseous scale from the steamer, place it in the mouth, and one can know the origin of the internal organ pathology, reaching directly to the affected area, identifying the pain site, thus enabling treatment.
Steamer Band (Zeng Dai)
[Properties and Flavor] Pungent, Warm, Non-toxic.
[Indications] Decocted juice taken internally removes abdominal distension and pain, rectal prolapse, gastric reflux (Fan Wei), urinary incontinence, urinary retention, stranguria (Lin), Zhong E Shi Zhu (a type of acute infectious disease or mental abnormality). Burned to ash and applied externally to metal wounds (Jin Chuang) stops bleeding, relieves pain, and helps expel blade fragments (Su Gong). It treats constipation and urinary retention, malaria, leukorrhea in women, umbilical sores in children, double tongue (Chong She), night crying in infants, and vitiligo (Bai Bo) (Li Shizhen).
[Elucidation] Li Shizhen said: In the Jiangnan region, cattail reeds are used as steamer bands, selecting those that have been used for a long time and become rotten. This is because they have been long exposed to steam, thus possessing the ability to disperse Qi stagnation.
[Attached Prescriptions] Five old prescriptions, six new prescriptions.
Urinary Retention: Wash the steamer band with four sheng of water to obtain the juice, decoct two and a half sheng of Malva seeds (Kui Zi), divide into three doses (*Taiping Shenghui Fang*).
Constipation and Urinary Retention: Decoct the steamer band, mix with equal parts of Polygonum multiflorum root powder (Pu Huang) one cun cube dose, take three times daily (*Qianjin Fang*).
Five-Color Leukorrhea: Decoct the steamer band, take one bowl warm, twice daily (*Qianjin Fang*).
Lower Bleeding in Children: Burn the steamer band to ash, apply to breast milk, and let the infant drink (*Waitai Mi Yao*).
Night Crying in Children: Hang the steamer band on the door frame; crying will stop (*Zimu Milu*).
Double Tongue in Children: Burn the steamer band to ash, apply under the tongue (*Taiping Shenghui Fang*).
Goose Mouth Disease in Children: Same prescription as above.
Umbilical Sores in Children: Burn the steamer band to ash and apply (*Zimu Milu*).
Five-Color Carbuncle: Burn the steamer band to ash, mix with egg white, and apply (*Weisheng Yijian Fang*).
Sand or Thorn in Eye: Take one qian of steamer band ash with water (*Waitai Mi Yao*).
Grass or Stone Stuck in Throat: Cannot be expelled. Same prescription as above.
Old Steamer Lid (Gu Zeng Bi) (From *Bencao Shiyi*. Also written as "Bi")
[Properties and Flavor] Non-toxic.
[Indications] Treats stone stranguria (Shi Lin); burn, grind, and take three finger-pinches with water. Also treats night sweats, pain, recurrence after eating (Shi Fu), and expulsion of dead fetus (Li Shizhen).
[Elucidation] Li Shizhen said: The steamer lid has the function of promoting Qi circulation, which seems superior to the steamer band. The preface to Lei Xiao's *Paozhi Lun* mentions: "Bile Dan Lu." The annotation states: Frequently using the lid from an old steamer can make salty flavors bland. This is due to the mutual influence of physical properties.
[Attached Prescriptions] Two new prescriptions.
Dead Fetus in Uterus and Retained Placenta: Take the cooking lid, burn to ash in front of the door, and take with water to facilitate expulsion (*Qianjin Fang*).
Bone Abscess with Bone Extrusion, Recurrence After Healing, Bone Emerging from Hole: Moxibustion should be applied to the sore: Use one black female chicken, remove the meat keeping only the bones, burn to charcoal, and use...
