红肿疼痛的是乳痈。男女都会得这种病。用炒白芷、制乳香、制没药（炮制方法见药物备要门）、浙贝母、当归身各等分，研成细末，每次服用五钱，用酒送服，一服即可完全消除。如果已经溃烂，使用醒消丸，用酒送服一剂以止痛，外贴洞天膏，即可自愈。如果患处颜色发白，按照流注的治疗方法处理。倘若溃烂严重不堪，按法服用洞天救苦丹，七日后，接着服用大枣丸来收功。这是林屋山人的秘法。醒消丸等方剂详见痈毒门。
另一个方子：生蒲公英，捣烂后冲酒服用，药渣敷在乳房上，稍微睡一会儿，数次即可痊愈。这是治疗乳痈的圣药，屡显神奇疗效，不可轻视。
又一个方子：豆腐店桌上做豆腐时淋下的一桶水，放入锅中熬干成膏状，待冷却去火气后，浓稠地敷在患处，干了就再敷，乳房上的结块自然消散，五到七次必定痊愈，屡次尝试神效灵验。有人借了五百金无力归还，将此神效方赠送，后来试用果然有效，人称此方为“五百金方”。此方虽治乳痈，既然说乳上结块自消，那么乳岩似乎也可治疗。
又一个方子：同时治疗乳吹（乳汁郁积引起的乳房肿痛）。葱连根捣烂敷在患处，用瓦罐盛炭火盖在葱上，一时蒸热出汗即愈。稳妥而神效。
柳树根，刮去皮捣烂，蒸热后用布包熨烫患处，冷了就随时更换，过一夜即愈。这是孙真人《千金方》中的记载。
虾酱，用好醋蒸热，敷在患处。其他药物无效者，用此法治之有奇效。
用茅屋上陈年的旧茅草，剪下一束尾端，研成细末，加上少许顶上的梅花冰片，敷在患处，即可痊愈。
男女皆有此症。此症乳房内生一小粒，初起如豆大，逐渐增大如块如枣，如围棋子大小，不痒也不痛，至一年后，或两三年，渐渐肿痛臭烂，孔洞深。也有初起时颜色发白坚硬一块作痛，这属于阴疽，最为险恶，因哀哭忧愁、患难惊恐所致，急宜早治，迟则难愈。初生时用犀黄丸，每服三钱，用酒送服，十服可全愈。或者用阳和汤加土贝母五钱煎服，数日可消。倘若误贴膏药，必然逐渐肿大，内部产生一种抽掣样的疼痛，此时已觉治疗太迟。倘若皮色变异，难以挽回，勉强每日服用阳和汤，或者每日服用犀黄丸，或者两种药每日早晚轮流服用，服至自行破溃且疼痛减轻为止。外用大蟾蜍（即癞蛤蟆）六只，每日早晚取一只，剖开腹部，刺多孔，连孔一起敷贴。若疮口翻开如花状最惨，万无一活。一位妇女双乳皆患乳岩，两年时间肿如桂圆大，从未医治，因儿子去世悲痛哭泣，形体肿大如杯，用五通犀黄丸，每日早晚轮流服用，九日全消。又一名男子，也患乳岩，因用鲫鱼膏贴上二日，肿大发如拳，色红，令其揭下，给予服用阳和汤四剂，倘若颜色转白可救，颜色若仍红则无救，四日后患部颜色仍红，哀恳求治，用犀黄丸、阳和汤轮流服用，至十六日，四处皆消，唯独疮头破烂，用蟾拔毒之法，半月收功。又一名妇女，患乳岩，寒热疼痛甚剧，我用阳和汤同二陈汤煎服，止痛安睡，连进三服全愈。又一名妇女，患病相同，其弟用夏枯草、花粉、连翘、橘叶等药连服五剂，号痛不绝，我视白色已变微红，难以全消，即用肉桂、炮姜、麻黄加二陈汤煎服，服下痛止，疮亦缩小，连服数剂，疮顶不痛而破，贴阳和解凝膏收功。这是林屋山人治验秘法。犀黄丸诸方，见阴疽门。
Redness, swelling, and pain characterize Ru Yong (Breast Abscess). This condition occurs in both men and women. Use equal parts of Chao Baizhi (Stir-baked Angelicae Dahuricae Radix), Zhi Ruxiang (Processed Frankincense), Zhi Moyao (Processed Myrrh) (processing method see Yao Wu Bei Yao Men), Zhe Beimu (Zhejiang Fritillaria Bulb), and Danggui Shen (Radix Angelicae Sinensis Root Tip). Grind into powder. Take 5 qian per dose, delivered with wine. One dose completely resolves the condition. If already ulcerated, use Xingxiao Wan (Revive and Eliminate Pill), delivered with one dose of wine to stop pain, and externally apply Dongtian Gao (Cave Heaven Plaster), which will heal spontaneously. If the color is white, treat according to the methods for Liuzhu (Flowing Deposit). If the ulceration is unbearable, administer Dongtian Jiuku Dan (Cave Heaven Saving Pain Pill) according to the method. After seven days, follow up with Dazao Wan (Jujube Pill) to conclude treatment. This is a secret method of Linwu Shanren. See Yong Du Men (Carbuncle and Toxin Section) for Xingxiao Wan and other formulas.
Another prescription: Fresh Pugongying (Dandelion Herb), mash and mix with wine for oral administration; apply the dregs to the breast. Sleep briefly. Several applications lead to recovery. This is the holy medicine for Ru Yong, repeatedly demonstrating miraculous effects; do not underestimate it.
Another prescription: Take one bucket of water drained from tofu making on the table in a tofu shop. Boil in a pot until dry to form a paste. Allow to cool to remove heat energy. Apply thickly to the affected area. Reapply when dry. Lumps on the breast will naturally dissipate. Five to seven applications are certain to cure. Repeatedly tested with divine efficacy. Someone borrowed five hundred gold coins and lacked the ability to repay, so they gifted this efficacious prescription. Subsequent trials proved effective. It is known as the "Five Hundred Gold Prescription." Although this prescription treats Ru Yong, since it states that lumps on the breast dissolve spontaneously, Ru Yan (Breast Cancer) might also be treatable.
Another prescription: Also treats Ru Chui (Blowing Milk / Mastitis due to milk stasis). Scallions with roots, mashed and applied to the site. Cover the scallions with a clay jar containing charcoal fire. Steam until hot and sweating occurs within an hour, leading to recovery. Stable and divinely effective.
Willow root, scrape off the bark, mash, steam hot, wrap in cloth, and apply as a compress. Replace immediately when cold. Recovery after one night. This is from Sun Taizhen's *Qianjin Fang* (Prescriptions Worth a Thousand Gold).
Treat according to the Earthworm Prescription for Da Tou Wen (Big Head Plague) in Volume 15, Epidemic Diseases Section. The effect is like magic.
Shrimp paste, steam hot with good vinegar, and apply. For cases where other medicines fail, this treatment yields miraculous results.
Use old thatch grass from the roof of a thatched house. Cut a bundle of tails, grind into powder. Add a small amount of Meihua Bingpian (Plum Blossom Borneol). Apply to the affected area. Cures.
Both men and women suffer from this condition. A small lump forms inside the breast. Initially bean-sized, gradually enlarging to block-sized or date-sized, or like a Go stone. No itching, no pain. After one year, or two to three years, it gradually becomes swollen, painful, foul-smelling, and ulcerates with deep holes. Some present initially as a hard, white, painful lump. This is Yin Ju (Yin Carbuncle), extremely dangerous and malignant, caused by grieving, worrying, hardship, and fright. Early treatment is urgent; delay makes it difficult to cure. At onset, use Xi Huang Wan (Rhino Horn Pill). Take 3 qian per dose, delivered with wine. Ten doses ensure complete recovery. Alternatively, use Yanghe Tang (Warming Yang Decoction) plus Tu Beimu (Earth Fritillaria Bulb) 5 qian, decoct and drink. Resolution in several days. If mistakenly applied with plasters, it will gradually swell, causing internal pulling pain. Treatment is then considered late. If skin color changes, recovery is difficult. Barely manage by taking Yanghe Tang daily, or Xi Huang Wan daily, or alternating the two medicines morning and evening. Continue until spontaneous rupture and pain relief. Externally, use six large Bufo (Toad Skin/Secretion). Take one each morning and evening. Cut open the belly, pierce multiple holes. Apply including the holes. If the sore everts like flowers, it is most tragic; survival is impossible. A woman suffered from Ru Yan in both breasts. For two years, the lumps were size of longan fruits. Never treated. Due to grief over her son's death, the swelling enlarged to cup-size. Use Wutong Xi Huang Wan, alternating morning and evening. Nine days later, completely resolved. Another man suffered from Ru Yan. He applied Jiyu Gao (Crucian Carp Plaster) for two days. The swelling became fist-sized and red. Instructed to remove it. Administered Yanghe Tang for four doses. If color turns white, rescue is possible; if still red, hopeless. Four days later, color remained red. Begged for treatment. Alternated Xi Huang Wan and Yanghe Tang. By the sixteenth day, all areas resolved except the sore head. Used Chan Baidu (Toad Detoxification) method. Recovered in half a month. Another woman suffered from Ru Yan, with severe chills, fever, and pain. I used Yanghe Tang combined with Erchen Tang (Two-Aged Phlegm Decoction), decocted and administered. Stopped pain, ensured sleep. Three doses led to complete recovery. Another woman had identical symptoms. Her brother administered Xiakucao (Prunella Spike), Fenhanhua (Glehnia Root), Lianqiao (Forsythia Fruit), and Juye (Tangerine Leaf) for five doses. She cried out in pain incessantly. I observed the white color had turned slightly red, making complete resolution difficult. I used Rougui (Cinnamon Bark), Paojiang (Prepared Ginger), and Mahuang (Ephedra Herb) added to Erchen Tang, decocted and administered. Pain stopped upon ingestion. The sore shrank. Continued for several doses. The sore apex ruptured without pain. Applied Yanghe Jiening Gao (Warming Yang Resolving Peace Plaster) to conclude treatment. This is the verified secret method of Linwu Shanren. See Yin Ju Men (Yin Carbuncle Section) for Xi Huang Wan and other formulas.
Another prescription: For those already ulcerated, use Dongtian Jiuku Dan (see Yong Du Various Formulas). Take 3 qian per dose, delivered with aged wine. One dose every two days. Several doses yield efficacy.
Another prescription: For early stage, use XiaKugcao (Prunella Spike), Pugongying (Dandelion Herb), Loulu (Rhaponticum Rhizome), Juye (Tangerine Leaf), Xiong Shufen (Male Rat Feces - those with pointed ends), Ganju (Chrysanthemum Flower), and Beimu (Fritillaria Bulb) in equal parts. Grind into powder. Deliver with wine. Divine efficacy.
