治疗痘疔毒瓦斯炽盛,导致所有痘疮不能起发,起发的不能灌脓,灌脓的不能收靥,或者剧烈疼痛或麻木疼痛的情况。艾灸直到不痛为止;原本不痛的,艾灸直到感到疼痛,其毒邪随火气而消散。凡是疔疮挑破后流出毒血的,可以治疗。如果挑破后不痛且不出血的,难以治疗。如果使用此法艾灸,就会感到疼痛,再用银针挑破。紫色血液随之流出,各种毒邪随之消散,也有痊愈的。具体方法是:将大蒜切成三分厚的片,敷在痘疔上,用小艾炷在蒜片上艾灸,每灸五壮更换一次蒜片继续灸。如果紫色血液流出后,肿痛不止,尤其适宜经常艾灸。

Treat severe toxicity of smallpox thorns (Dou Ding, 痘疔) causing failure of pustules to rise, fill with pus, or crust over; or causing severe pain or numbness. Moxibustion should be applied until pain ceases; if there was no pain initially, moxibustion should be applied until pain arises, dispersing the toxin via fire. Cases where the thorn is pricked and toxic blood flows are treatable. If pricked without pain and no blood flows, it is difficult to treat. If this moxibustion method is used, pain will ensue; then prick with a silver needle. Purple blood will flow out, and toxins will dissipate; some may survive. The method involves slicing garlic to a thickness of 3 fen, placing it on the smallpox thorn, and applying small moxa cones on top of the garlic. Change the garlic after every five moxa cones and continue. If swelling and pain persist after purple blood flows out, frequent moxibustion is especially suitable.
