一位僧人患有噎膈（食道梗阻），临终前对徒弟说：“我胸中有异物阻塞。”死后徒弟剖开尸体，取出一块骨头。偶然滴上鹅血，骨头随即溶解。后来徒弟也患了噎膈，饮用鹅血后痊愈，多次尝试都灵验如神。经查，此症胸前必有两根小骨逐渐交合，导致无法进食而死。取生鹅血，趁热对着病灶灌服，骨头自然化解，饮食即可进补。永远禁止食用鹅肉和牛肉。

A monk suffered from dysphagia (obstruction of the esophagus). On his deathbed, he told his disciple: "There is a foreign object blocking my chest." After his death, the disciple dissected the body and removed a bone. By chance, goose blood was dripped onto the bone, which immediately dissolved. Later, the disciple also contracted dysphagia; after drinking goose blood, he recovered. This was tried repeatedly with miraculous efficacy. Investigation revealed that in this condition, two small bones in the chest gradually converge, leading to an inability to eat and subsequent death. Fresh goose blood should be taken and poured hot against the lesion while warm; the bone will naturally dissolve, allowing food intake. Consumption of goose and beef must be strictly prohibited forever.
200. Worm Dysphagia: A person suffers from dysphagia with worms residing in the lung tube. The worms extend and retract periodically; when extended, food and drink are difficult to ingest, or vomiting occurs shortly after eating. This is caused by the presence of worms. Crush indigo leaves to extract juice; if leaves are unavailable, use indigo powder. Mix with light wine and drink for immediate recovery. This formula is extremely effective.
201. Food Dysphagia: A person suffers from food dysphagia (difficulty swallowing food). Use 2 fen of fecal ginger and 1 li of musk, mixed with boiling water and taken orally. Avoid meat, fish, salt, and soy sauce for fifty days to prevent recurrence. This formula is exceptionally effective. Preparation method: Take any amount of fresh ginger, place it in a cloth bag on the fifth day of the fifth lunar month, and soak it in a manure pit shielded from sunlight for forty-nine days. Remove, wash thoroughly with running water, hang up to dry completely, and grind into powder. For patients ill for two years, use 3 fen of ginger powder; for those ill for one year, use 2 fen. Cultivate kindness, and merit will be boundless.

Take on an empty stomach, one dose daily. Recovery expected within ten days. After recovery, take six doses of Liuwei Dihuang Wan to eradicate the root cause.
204. Hunger Vomiting: When hungry, larvae often ascend to the stomach, causing inevitable vomiting upon eating. If anti-reversal stomach medicines are mistakenly used, vomiting worsens. Boil Sichuan Pepper (Chuanjiao) in water and drink for relief.
205. Gastric Sac: A patient vomits once every one to two days, or every three to five days. Food intake feels insufficient, and vomitus is undigested. This is called Gastric Sac Syndrome, located beside the stomach, shaped like a sac. All food enters this sac; even after feeling full, hunger persists because the object blocks the upper passage, preventing food from entering the abdomen. Initially, vomiting occurs every one to two days; vomitus has no odor, meat digests but rice does not. Over time, vomiting occurs every three to four days. If it progresses to every five to six days, it is incurable. Formula: Processed Aconite Root (Zhi Fuzi) 5 qian, Poria 1 liang. Decoct and take twice daily. After three doses, vomitus changes odor; after another three doses, vomiting reduces by half; after three more doses, vomiting stops. Once vomiting ceases, use Liuwei Dihuang Tang plus Angelica Sinensis (Danggui) and Hemp Seed (Huomaren), refined honey to make pills. Take 5 qian in the morning and 5 qian of sesame seeds at night. After several days, the gastric sac will pass through stool. Severe cases resemble cowhide; mild cases resemble paper. Patients are usually unaware, and this is not recorded in standard texts. This is a celestial transmission, precious beyond measure. Treasure it.
206. Vomiting: A patient vomits all ingested food after one to two days, with sour odor, unresponsive to various medicines. Render 10 liang of pork back fat, remove dregs.

No solid food or liquid could be retained for seven days. The physician found the pulse disordered but still possessing spirit. Due to cold-cooling obstruction causing dysphagia, constipation, and scanty urine, use Processed Rhubarb (Zhi Dahuang) and Aurantium Fructus (Zhike) 1 qian each, decocted and taken. Vomiting ceased, and appetite returned. The next day, another dose was taken; after an hour, bowel movements and urination became smooth, and hunger appeared. Indeed, correct medication yields such efficacy.
