属性:凡是毒邪深重且疮面溃烂的情况,如果体内的毒邪尚未清除干净,就急于使用生肌收敛的药物,会导致体表看似愈合而内部继续溃烂。病情严重的,会逼迫毒邪向内攻陷脏腑;病情较轻的,反而会加重溃烂程度。即使伤口暂时闭合,在周围部位也会再次长出大的痈疽。因此可知,毒邪未尽时,不可急于使用生肌药物。只需用贝叶膏贴敷患处,频繁更换药膏,等到看到有肉芽组织(如珍珠状颗粒)生长时,才可以使用生肌药物。如果患者元气虚弱,必须采用大补元气的方法,以培固根本。

Attribute: In cases where the pathogenic toxin is severe and the ulcer is extensive, if internal toxins have not been fully cleared, applying flesh-regenerating (Shengji) astringents prematurely will result in apparent external healing while internal decay continues. In severe cases, this forces the toxin to attack inwardly; in mild cases, it exacerbates the ulceration. Even if the wound temporarily closes, large carbuncles may reappear in surrounding areas. Therefore, it is known that when toxins are not exhausted, flesh-regenerating medicines should not be used hastily. One should only apply Beiye Gao (Shell Leaf Plaster), changing it frequently, until granulation tissue (resembling pearls) appears, at which point flesh-regenerating medicines can be used. If the patient's Yuanqi (Vital Energy) is weak, major tonification is required to cultivate and secure the Yuanqi.

Alternatively, use Zhu Zhiyou (Porcine Fat, filtered), half a jin, plus Huangla (Yellow Beeswax), 1 liang, melted and poured into a bowl. When slightly warm, add the aforementioned seven ingredients to form a plaster, spread and applied to carbuncles and broken sores. For whip injuries, double the amount of Han Sanqi.

Cover externally with Taiyi Gao (Great Unity Plaster). For large sores, wash and change twice daily. Internally, concurrently administer medicines that greatly tonify Qi and Blood; new flesh will grow, and the wound will naturally contract.
