【方歌】烙针二枚须一样，箸大头圆七寸长，燃时蘸油烧火上，
斜入向软烙斯良，一烙不透宜再烙，脓水流出始安康。
再用纸拈入烙口，外贴膏药古称强。此法今时不常用，
惟恐患者畏惊惶，今时多用阳燧锭，代火针烙实奇方。
【注】痈疽流注，经久不消，内溃不痛，宜用火针烙之。二枚
一样，形如箸粗，头圆，长七寸。拈时蘸香油炭火上烧
红，于疮头近下斜入，向软处烙之。一烙不透再烙，必
得脓水不假手按流出，方用绵纸撮拈如绳状，随深浅拈
入烙口，余纸分开，外贴膏药，此古法也，今罕用之。
盖恐患者惊惧，故以阳燧锭代之。
方剂：阳燧锭
组成：蟾酥（末） 朱砂（末）
川鸟（末） 草乌（末，各五分）
直僵蚕（末，一条）
以上共和匀，用硫黄一两五钱，置杓内，微火炖化
；次入前蟾酥等末，搅匀；再入当门子麝香二分，冰片
一分，搅匀；即倾入湿磁盘内，速荡转成片，俟冷取收
磁罐内。用时取甜瓜子大一块，要上尖下平，先用红枣
肉擦灸处，粘药于上，用灯草蘸油，拈火焠药锭上，灸
五壮或七壮、九壮毕，即饮米醋半酒钟，候起小疱。用
线针串破，出黄水些须，贴万应膏，其毒即消。如风气
痛，用箸子于骨缝中按之，酸痛处以墨点记，灸之。
再诸疮初起，于肿处各灸三、五壮立瘥。
【方歌】阳燧锭灸寒肿疮，朱砂二乌僵硫黄，火炼加蟾共冰麝，
乘热倾出成片良。
【方歌】烙针需要两枚，且必须大小形状一致，筷子般粗细、头部圆润、长七寸。点燃时蘸取香油在炭火上烧红，斜着插入并向柔软处施烙效果良好。如果一次烙透不够，应当再次施烙，直到脓水流出，患者才能恢复安康。
再用纸捻插入烙口，外部贴敷膏药，这是古代所称的强效方法。此法在当今不常使用，是担心患者感到恐惧惊慌。当今多用阳燧锭，代替火针施烙，确实是一个奇妙的方子。
【注】对于痈疽流注，经久不消散，内部溃破但不疼痛的情况，适宜用火针施烙。两枚烙针要一样，形状像筷子粗细，头部圆润，长七寸。制作纸捻时蘸取香油，在炭火上烧红，于疮头下方近处斜向插入，向柔软处施烙。一次烙透若未达目的，需再次施烙，务必使脓水在不借助手按压的情况下自然流出，才用绵纸搓成绳状的纸捻，根据深浅插入烙口，剩余的纸分开，外部贴敷膏药，这是古法，如今很少使用。大概是担心患者惊惧，所以用阳燧锭来替代。

[Formula Verse] Two cauterizing needles are required, which must be identical in size and shape. They should be as thick as chopsticks, with rounded heads and a length of seven cun. When ignited, dip them in sesame oil and burn them red over charcoal fire. Insert them obliquely and cauterize towards the soft area for optimal effect. If one cauterization is not thorough enough, it is advisable to cauterize again until pus and fluid flow out, ensuring the patient's recovery.
Then, insert a paper wick into the cauterized opening and apply an external plaster externally; this was strongly praised in ancient times. This method is rarely used nowadays, likely due to fear of startling or alarming patients. Currently, Yangsui Ding (Yang Sui Pellet) is mostly used to replace fire needles for cauterization, which is indeed a remarkable prescription.
[Annotation] For carbuncles, ulcers, and flowing nodules that persist without subsiding for a long time, where internal ulceration occurs but without pain, fire needle cauterization is suitable. The two needles should be identical, shaped like chopsticks in thickness, with rounded heads and a length of seven cun. To make the wick, dip it in sesame oil and burn it red over charcoal fire. Insert it obliquely near the lower part of the sore head, cauterizing towards the soft area. If one cauterization does not penetrate thoroughly, cauterize again until pus flows out naturally without manual pressure. Then, use cotton paper rolled into a rope-like wick, insert it into the cauterized opening according to depth, separate the remaining paper, and apply an external plaster. This is the ancient method, rarely used today. It is presumably because of the fear of causing patient panic, so Yangsui Ding is used as a substitute.
Formula: Yangsui Ding (Yang Sui Pellet)
Composition: Chan Su (Toad Venom Powder), Zhusha (Cinnabar Powder), Chuan Wu (Aconiti Radix Lateralis Preparata Powder), Cao Wu (Aconiti Kusnezoffii Radix Preparata Powder, each 5 fen), Zhi Jiang Can (Bombyx Batryticatus Powder, one piece).
Mix the above ingredients evenly. Place Liu Huang (Sulfur, 1 liang 5 qian) in a spoon and melt it slowly over mild fire. Next, add the aforementioned powders of Chan Su, etc., and stir well. Then add Dang Men Zi Shexiang (Moschus Powder, 2 fen) and Bing Pian (Borneolum Syntheticum, 1 fen), and stir well. Immediately pour the mixture into a wet porcelain dish and rapidly swirl to form a sheet. Wait for it to cool, then remove and store in a porcelain jar.
For use, take a piece the size of a sweet melon seed, with a pointed top and flat bottom. First, rub the acupoint/treatment area with red date flesh, stick the medicine onto it. Dip a rush light in oil, ignite it, and quench the Yangsui Ding pellet with the flame. Perform moxibustion for five, seven, or nine Zhu (moxa cones). After completion, drink half a wine cup of rice vinegar. Wait for small blisters to rise. Pierce them with a thread needle to release a little yellow fluid, then apply Wanying Gao (All-Effect Plaster); the toxicity will immediately dissipate. For wind-qi pain, press with a chopstick among bone fissures, mark the sore spot with ink, and perform moxibustion. Additionally, for various sores at the initial stage, perform three to five Zhu of moxibustion on the swollen area for immediate recovery.
[Formula Verse] Yangsui Ding treats cold-type swollen sores via moxibustion, composed of Zhusha (Cinnabar), Er Wu (Chuan Wu and Cao Wu), Jiang Can (Bombyx Batryticatus), and Liu Huang (Sulfur). Refined by fire and added with Chan Su (Toad Venom), Bing Pian (Borneol), and Shexiang (Musk), pouring it out while hot to form sheets yields good results.
