〔丹〕服瘿瘤药,先须断浓味。
只有形状像小核一样的,称为结核。
〔河间〕结核,是因为火气热盛导致郁结坚硬,就像果核一样,不需要溃破排脓,只要热气消散就会自然消除。
〔丹溪〕结核,可能出现在颈部、颈侧、手臂或身体其他部位,像肿毒一样,多在皮肤与筋膜之间,大多是由于痰湿凝聚成核不散。需要询问患者平时喜欢吃什么食物?在服用吐法或下法之后,再用药物散核。治疗颈部结核的方剂:
僵蚕(炒制) 大黄(用酒浸泡) 青黛 胆南星(各等分)
以上药物研为细末,用蜂蜜制成丸药,含化服用。
位于下巴颏下的结核:二陈汤加酒炒大黄、连翘、桔梗、柴胡。
位于手臂的结核:二陈汤加连翘、防风、川芎、酒黄芩、苍术、皂角刺、僵蚕、麝香,以疏通手太阴肺经和足厥阴肝经的积滞痰浊,使结核自然消散,效果非常迅速。
〔《济生方》〕治疗下巴颏下结核不消,《经效方》使用大肚蜘蛛,不限数量,用好酒浸泡,捣烂,连同浸泡的酒一起饮用,过滤去渣,温热后临睡前服用。
〔《灵枢》〕虚邪侵入人体很深,寒邪与热邪相互搏结,长久停留并深入体内附着。寒邪胜过热邪则骨头疼痛、肌肉枯槁;热邪胜过寒邪则腐烂肌肉化为脓液;内伤骨骼,损伤骨骼导致骨蚀;如果前筋受伤(“疾前”二字是衍文,筋字应为“结”),筋脉屈曲不能伸展,邪气停留在其间而不返回,发为筋溜。如果有结聚,气归向那里,卫气停留在那里,不能返回,津液长久停留,结合形成肠溜。长久的要几年才形成,用手按压感觉柔软。已经有结聚,气归向那里,津液停留,邪气侵入其中,凝结程度每天加重,连接聚集在一起,形成昔瘤。用手按压感觉坚硬。如果有结聚,深中于骨,气依附于骨,骨与气相并,每天增大,则形成骨疽。如果有结聚,中于肌肉,宗气居于其中,邪气停留不去,有热则化为脓,无热则形成肉疽。这些气机病变,发作没有固定的位置,但有固定的名称。(出自《刺节真邪篇》,这些都是虚邪中人致病,病邪不去而长久留滞,所以经过年复一年才形成疽瘤。)
〔子和〕新寨有一位妇人,四十多岁,长了三个瓣状的瘤,戴人让她用咸味催吐。三次涌吐、三次发汗、三次泻下,瘿瘤已经消了一半。接着服用化瘿的药物,于是大大消退去除。凡是病在上部的,都适宜用吐法,自有其斟酌运用的方法罢了。

〔子和〕在西华,众人都讥笑说只是吐泻而已。一天,魏寿之与戴人进入饭馆,看见一个男人长了一个瘤,正好在眼睛上方的网膜内,颜色像灰色的李子,下垂覆盖眼球,不能视物。戴人对寿之说:我不等饭熟,立刻能取走这个瘤。
魏寿之不相信。戴人说:我和你取这个瘤怎么样?那人说:别人都不敢割。戴人说:我不是用刀割,另有技术。那人听从了。于是带他进入一个小房间,让他俯卧在床上,用绳子束缚他的手腕,针刺委中大出血,先让他用手揉按眼上的瘤,也刺出像雀粪一样的东西,立刻平复走出门外。寿之大吃一惊。戴人说:人的技艺,怎么能完全窥探呢?郜城,是戴人的家乡。有一个女子未出嫁,十八岁,两手背都有瘤,一类像鸡距,一类像羊角,手腕不能戴镯子,对着光亮看,像桃胶一样。夫家想要抛弃她,戴人见了说:在手背的,叫胶瘤,在面部的,叫粉瘤,这是胶瘤。用针十字刺破,按压出黄胶脓两三匙,立刻平复。瘤核不再复发,婚事恢复。不是素来精通的人,不敢用这种方法。
〔《本草》〕治疗果报面生瘤。方用艾丸灸十壮,立即用醋磨硫黄,涂在纸上,剪如螺蛳掩子大小,贴在所灸处。再用膏药重贴,两天换一次,等到痒挤出脓,像绿豆粉样就痊愈了。硫黄,罗谦甫写作雄黄。

〔丹溪〕服用瘿瘤药,必须先断绝浓味饮食。
Only those with a shape resembling a small kernel are termed *Jiehe* (Tubercle).
[He Jian] *Jiehe* occurs when excessive heat from Fire Qi causes stagnation and hardening, similar to a fruit pit. It does not require ulceration or suppuration; once the heat dissipates, it resolves spontaneously.
[Dan Xi] *Jiehe* may appear on the neck, lateral neck, arms, or body, resembling a swelling toxin. It is mostly located between the skin and fascia, often caused by phlegm condensing into a persistent nodule. One must ask what foods the patient usually prefers. After employing emetic or purgative therapies, use medications to disperse the nodules. Formula for *Jiehe* in the neck:
*Baijiangcan* (Stir-fried *Bombyx Batryticatus*) *Dahuang* (Steeped in wine) *Qingdai* (Indigo Naturalis) *Danning* (Equal parts of each)
Grind these into fine powder, form pills with honey, and take by holding in the mouth to dissolve (*qing*).
For *Jiehe* under the chin: *Erchen Tang* (Two-Cured Decoction) added with wine-stir-fried *Dahuang*, *Lianqiao*, *Jiegeng*, and *Chaihu*.
For *Jiehe* in the arm: *Erchen Tang* added with *Lianqiao*, *Fangfeng*, *Chuanxiong*, wine-*Huangqin*, *Cangzhu*, *Zaoyaoci*, *Baijiangcan*, and *Shexiang*. This unblocks accumulated phlegm in the Hand-Taiyin Lung Meridian and Foot-Jueyin Liver Meridian, causing the *Jiehe* to resolve naturally with great speed.
[*Jisheng Fang*] To treat persistent submental *Jiehe*, [*Jingxiao Fang*] uses large-bellied spiders, regardless of quantity. Soak them in good wine, mash thoroughly, and drink the mixture including the soaking wine. Filter the dregs, warm the liquid, and take before bedtime.
[*Lingshu*] When deficient pathogens enter deeply, cold and heat contend. If they remain long-term and attach internally: if cold overcomes heat, bone pain and muscle wasting occur; if heat overcomes cold, flesh rots and turns to pus. Internal injury to bones leads to bone erosion. If tendons are injured ("Ji Qian" is a textual error, "Jin" should be "Jie"), tendon contraction prevents extension. Pathogenic qi stays there without returning, manifesting as *Jinliu* (Tendon Sliding Tumor). Wherever there is accumulation, Qi converges; if Wei Qi (Defensive Qi) remains stuck and cannot return, and fluids stay long-term, they combine to form *Changliu* (Intestinal Sliding Tumor). These may take years to form; palpation feels soft. If Qi converges where there is already an accumulation, fluids stay, and pathogenic qi invades, condensation worsens daily, clustering together to form *Xiliu* (Ancient Tumor). Palpation feels hard. If accumulation penetrates deep into bone, Qi attaches to bone, and bone merges with Qi, enlarging daily, it becomes *Guju* (Bone Abscess). If accumulation affects flesh, Zong Qi (Pectoral Qi) resides there; if pathogenic qi lingers, heat transforms it to pus, while absence of heat results in *Rouju* (Flesh Abscess). These various pathogenic influences have no fixed site of onset but have fixed names. (From *Ci Jie Zhen Xie Pian*: All these diseases result from deficient pathogens attacking humans; because the disease is not expelled, it lingers long-term, accumulating over years into abscesses and tumors.)
[He Zi] A woman in Xinzhai, over forty years old, had three lobulated tumors. Dairen instructed her to induce vomiting with salty substances. After three sessions of inducing vomiting, sweating, and purging, the goiter reduced by half. Subsequently, she took medicine to transform goiters, leading to significant resolution. Diseases in the upper body generally benefit from emesis, following appropriate methods of adjustment.
[He Jian] *Liuqi Chiliudan* (Goiter Qi Red Goiter Cinnabar) indicates heat overcoming Qi, representing the color of fire.
[Dan Xi] Treating goiter Qi requires first cutting off rich/flavorful foods.
*Haizao* (Washed, 1 liang) *Huanglian* (2 liang)
Grind into powder. Place a small amount in the palm, lick occasionally, and swallow with saliva. If two-thirds resolved, stop subsequent doses. Another prescription uses 2 liang *Huangbai* and 1 liang *Haizao*; omitting *Huanglian* is also effective.
To treat goiter Qi *Jiehe*, which are numerous, swollen, and hard: Use 1 liang *Kunbu*. Wash to remove salinity, grind to powder. Take 1 qian per dose. Wrap in cotton, soak in good vinegar, hold in mouth, and swallow saliva. When flavor fades, re-hold.
[*Zhouhou Beiji Fang*] To treat sudden cystic formation under the neck, threatening goiter: 1 jin *Haizao*, washed to remove salinity, soaked in wine and drunk.
[Wu Qiushi] *Po Jie San* (Break Knots Powder)
*Haizao* (Washed) *Caolongdan* *Hai Ge* *Tongcao* *Kunbu* *Fanshi* (Calcined) *Songluo* (Each 3 fen) *Maimian* (4 fen)
*Banxia* *Beimu* (Each 2 fen)
Grind to powder. Take one *cunbi* (square-inch measure) with wine, three times daily. Avoid crucian carp, pork, five pungent spices, raw vegetables, and miscellaneous toxic foods. Effects seen in 10 days, cured in 20.
[*Jisheng Fang*] *Yuhu San* (Jade Pot Powder) treats three types of goiter.
*Haizao* (Washed) *Haidai* (Washed) *Kunbu* *Leiwuan* (Each 1 liang) *Qingyan* *Guangzhu* (Each 0.5 liang)
Grind to fine powder. Form pills with aged rice water decoction, size of hazelnuts, to be held in mouth to dissolve. Honey pills are also acceptable.
[He Zi] *Renshen Huaying Dan* (Ginseng Goiter-Transforming Pill)
*Haidai* (Washed) *Haizao* (Washed) *Hai Ge* *Kunbu* (These four roasted/dried) *Zexie* (Stir-fried) *Lianqiao* (All equal parts)
*Zhuye* (Pig thyroid/neck meat) *Yangye* (Sheep thyroid/neck meat) (Each 10 pieces; pig/sheep ye refers to the external kidney/testicles within the scrotum)
Grind to powder, form honey pills, size of corn kernels. Hold 1-2 pills in mouth before bed. Avoid greasy foods.
[Luo Qianfu] *Baojin San* (Precious Gold Powder) effectively treats goiter Qi without exception.
*Zhuyangye* (10 pairs. Warm water wash to remove fat membrane, dry, grind to fine powder) *Haizao* (Washed) *Haidai* (Each 2 liang. Washed)
*Dingxiang* *Muxiang* *Hupo* (Ground) *Shexiang* (Ground, Each 1 fen) *Zhenzhu* (Ground, 0.5 liang)
First, pound *Dingxiang*, *Muxiang*, *Haizao*, *Haidai* to fine powder. Add remaining ingredients, mix, grind finely, and sieve. Take 1 qian, mixed with one cup of hot wine, taken at night while sleeping with head lowered. For unmarried men and women, ten doses guarantee efficacy. For married men/women, effects seen in one month. Contraindicated in pregnancy.
*Haidai Wan* (Kelp Pill) treats goiter Qi that persists long-term.
*Haizao* (Washed) *Beimu* *Qingpi* *Chenpi*
Grind all equal parts to powder. Form honey pills, size of marbles. Hold one pill in mouth after meals. Highly effective.
[Luo Qianfu] Drying Tumor Formula named *Yijing San*
*Pi Shuang* *Fenshuang* *Xionghuang* (Each 2 qian) *Qingfen* *Moyao* *Ruxiang* (Each 1 qian) *Tuhuang* (3 qian. Method for making Tuhuang: Separate 2 liang *Cihuang* (Orpiment) into powder, 0.5 liang *Mubeizi* (Semen Euphorbiae Lathyri) shelled, 0.5 liang *Badou* (Semen Crotonis) de-oiled. Grind *Pi Shuang* separately to 2 qian powder. Mix *Cihuang* powder with *Mubeizi* and petroleum ether (stone brain oil) into a block. Wrap in oil paper, bury in ground pit for 49 days. Retrieve, store in porcelain, break into small pieces, grind finely. Small amount needed. *Cihuang* is Orpiment.)
Grind to fine powder. Mix with saliva, apply to tumor apex. Place a leek leaf around the edge. Cover with floral paper, then apply *Xiaohuang Gao* (Little Yellow Ointment).
*Xiaohuang Gao*
*Huangbai* *Huangqin* *Dahuang* (Equal parts)
Grind to powder. Mix with water to paste consistency. Apply slightly larger than previous medication. Change every three days. Do not remove until day 8-9, wait until ready to peel. Alternatively, using only *Huangbai* powder is also good.
[Dan Xi] Pediatric Dan Liu (Red Tumor). Five *Bimazi* (Ricinus seeds), peeled, ground with one spoonful of flour, mixed with water, applied topically. Very excellent. (From Pediatric Section.)
[Luo Qianfu] *Shengji Qinglong San* (Muscle-Regenerating Green Dragon Powder)
*Hezi Pi* *Gaocha* *Longgu*
Grind equal parts to powder. Apply dry powder directly to the wound.
Another Drying Tumor Formula
*Pi Shuang* *Pi Sha* *Huandan* *Xionghuang* *Qingfen* (Each 1 qian) *Banmao* (Raw, 30 pieces) *Zhusha* *Ruxiang* *Moyao* (Each 1 qian)
Grind to powder. Make pills with glutinous rice porridge, shape like chess pieces, dry by baking. Moxibustion pierces tumor apex with 3 moxa cones. Place medicated cake on top. Apply *Huangbai* powder mixed with water as a patch. After several days, it naturally dries and falls off.

[He Zi] In Xihua, people mocked him saying he only induced vomiting and diarrhea. One day, Wei Shouzhi and Dairen entered a restaurant, seeing a man with a tumor inside the upper eyelid net, gray-plum colored, hanging down covering the eye, obstructing vision. Dairen told Shouzhi: I will remove this tumor before the meal is cooked.
Wei did not believe him. Dairen said: Shall I remove it for you? The man said: No one dares cut it. Dairen said: I do not use knives, I have another technique. The man agreed. Led to a small room, made him lie prone on a bed, tied wrists, pricked Wěizhōng (BL40) to bleed heavily. First, he rubbed the eye tumor manually, also pricking out material resembling bird droppings. Immediately flat, walked out. Shouzhi was shocked. Dairen said: Can one fully窥 (peek) at others' skills? Gaocheng is my hometown. An unmarried girl, 18 years old, had tumors on both hands backs, one like chicken spur, one like sheep horn, wrists couldn't fit bracelets. Looking in light, resembled peach gum. Husband's family wanted to discard her. Dairen saw and said: On hand backs, it is Jiao Liu (Glue Tumor); on face, Fen Liu (Powder Tumor). This is Jiao Liu. Prick crosswise with needle, press out 2-3 spoons of yellow glue-like pus. Immediately flat. Nucleus never recurs, marriage restored. Only those well-versed dare use this method.
[*Bencao*] Treat facial tumors from karmic retribution. Moxa cone 10 cones on lesion. Immediately grind *Liuhuang* (Sulfur) with vinegar, smear on paper, cut to size of snail shell, apply to moxa site. Re-cover with plaster, change every two days. Wait for itching, squeeze out pus resembling mung bean powder, then cured. *Liuhuang*, Luo Qianfu wrote as *Xionghuang*.
[Wu Qiushi] Goiters mostly occur on shoulders/neck; tumors follow Qi condensation. These exist for many years, gradually enlarging. Hard and immobile is called *Shiying* (Stone Goiter).
Skin color unchanged is *Rouying* (Flesh Goiter). Visible vein knots is *Jinying* (Tendon Goiter). Red vessels interlaced is *Xuèying* (Blood Goiter). Fluctuates with emotion is *Qiying* (Qi Goiter). None of the five goiters should be arbitrarily incised; incision causes pus/blood collapse, often leading to death. Tumors have five types: *Guli* (Bone Tumor), *Zhilu* (Fat Tumor), *Roulü* (Flesh Tumor), *Nonglü* (Pus Tumor), *Xuèlü* (Blood Tumor). Also cannot be incised. *Roulü* especially untreatable; treatment kills. Only *Zhilu* cures if incised and fat removed.
[Dan Xi] Taking goiter/tumor medicine requires first cutting off rich/flavorful foods.
