《病源论》云∶蜈蚣,此即百足虫也。虽复有毒,而不甚螫人。人误触之者,故时有中
其毒者耳。
《本草》云∶蜈蚣毒,用桑根汁解。(今按《新录方》云∶立痛止。)
《葛氏方》∶蜈蚣自不甚啮人,其毒亦微殊,轻于蜂。今赤足螫人,乃痛于黄足,是其
毒烈故也。亦是雄故也。治之方∶
以盐拭疮上即愈。
又方∶头垢少许,以苦酒和涂之。
又方∶破大蒜以揩之。
又方∶ 蓝汁渍之即愈。
《短剧方》云∶割鸡冠血涂之。

《新录方》蛇衔叶,捣如泥,封之。
又方∶荏叶,捣如泥,封上。
《僧深方》云∶消蜡蜜浸伤中良。
《医门方》云∶鸡屎和醋,涂上便愈。
《病源论》云∶蜂类甚多,而方家不具显其名。唯地中大土蜂最有毒,一枚中人,便即
倒闷,举体洪肿,诸药治之。皆不能猝止,旧方都无其法,然虽不能杀人,有以禁术封唾亦
微效。又有瓠(胡故反),KT (落都反)蜂,即亦其次,余者犹瘥。
《本草》云∶蜂毒用蜂房,蓝青解。
《葛氏方》治蜂螫人方∶
取人尿洗之。

取蜘蛛涂疮上。
又以活蜘蛛放毒上,其自嗽毒。
《千金方》蜂螫人方∶
蜜(五合) 腊(二合) 猪脂(五合)
和煎稍稍食之。
又方∶烧牛屎灰,苦酒和涂之。
又方∶嚼盐涂之。
《极要方》云∶斫桑树白汁以涂之。
《诸病源候论》说:蜈蚣,就是那种百足虫。虽然有毒,但并不怎么咬人。人如果不小心碰到它,所以偶尔会有中毒的情况。
《本草经》说:蜈蚣的毒,用桑根汁可以解。(现在按《新录方》记载:能立即止痛。)
《葛氏方》:蜈蚣自己并不怎么咬人,它的毒性也很轻微,比蜂轻。现在赤脚的蜈蚣咬人,比黄脚的更痛,是因为它的毒性猛烈。也是因为它是雄性的缘故。治疗的方法:
用盐擦拭伤口处就会痊愈。
又一个方子:用蓝草汁浸泡患处就会痊愈。
又一个方子:用盐水浸泡患处就会痊愈。
《诸病源候论》说:蜂的种类很多,但医家没有完全明确列出它们的名字。只有地中的大土蜂最有毒,一只中人,就会立刻昏倒闷绝,全身浮肿,各种药物救治,都不能立刻停止(症状),旧有的方剂都没有这种方法,然而虽然不能致死,用禁咒术封唾也稍微有效。又有瓠蜂、KT蜂,也就排在其次,其他的就更差了。
又一个方子:砍伐谷树,取白色的汁液涂抹。(《极要方》与此相同。)
《千金方》治疗蜂螫人的方子:
蜂蜜(五合) 腊脂(二合) 猪脂(五合)
一起煎煮,慢慢服用。
又一个方子:嚼碎盐涂抹。
*Zhubing Yuanhou Lun* (Treatise on the Pathogenesis and Manifestations of All Diseases) states: The centipede is the creature with a hundred legs. Although it is venomous, it rarely bites humans. If people accidentally touch it, they may occasionally suffer from its venom.
*Bencao Jing* (Divine Farmer's Materia Medica) states: Centipede venom can be antidoted with mulberry root juice. (Currently, according to *Xinlu Fang* (Newly Recorded Prescriptions): it stops pain immediately.)
*Ge Shi Fang* (Prescriptions by Ge Hong): The centipede does not bite easily; its venom is also very mild, lighter than that of bees. Currently, red-legged centipedes cause more pain when biting than yellow-legged ones, due to their stronger toxicity. This is also because they are male. Treatment methods:
Apply salt to the wound; it will heal immediately.
Another prescription: Take a small amount of head scurf, mix it with vinegar, and apply it.
Another prescription: Break open garlic and rub it on the affected area.
Another prescription: Soak the area in indigo juice; it will heal.
*Duanju Fang* (Short Drama Prescriptions) states: Apply blood from a rooster's comb to the wound.
Another prescription: Soak the wound in salt water; it will heal.
*Xinlu Fang*: Crush snake-herb leaves into a paste and apply as a poultice.
Another prescription: Crush perilla leaves into a paste and apply as a poultice.
*Seng Shen Fang* (Monk Shen's Prescriptions) states: Soaking the injury in melted wax honey is beneficial.
*Yimen Fang* (Medical Gate Prescriptions) states: Mix chicken manure with vinegar and apply; it will heal.
*Zhubing Yuanhou Lun* states: There are many types of bees, but physicians have not fully listed their specific names. Only the large earth bee found underground is highly toxic; a single sting can cause immediate fainting and severe swelling throughout the body. Various medicines cannot stop the symptoms abruptly. Old prescriptions lack methods for this, although it is rarely fatal, using exorcistic spells or spitting on the wound offers slight relief. There are also Hu bees and KT bees, which rank next in toxicity, while others are even less potent.
*Bencao Jing* states: Bee venom can be treated with honeycomb or indigo plant.
*Ge Shi Fang* for treating bee stings:
Wash the area with human urine.
Another prescription: Chop a millet tree and apply the white sap. (*Jiyao Fang* agrees with this.)
Another prescription: Boil honeycomb and wash the area; alternatively, burn it to ash, mix with ointment, and apply.
Another prescription: Scrape dental tartar and apply it.
Another prescription: Apply the pointed leaves of the indigo plant.
*Duanju Fang* for treating bee stings:
Apply a spider to the wound.
Alternatively, place a live spider on the venom site; it will suck out the toxin itself.
*Qianjin Fang* for treating bee stings:
Honey (5 he), Beeswax (2 he), Lard (5 he).
Boil together and consume slowly.
Another prescription: Burn cow dung to ash, mix with vinegar, and apply.
Another prescription: Chew salt and apply it.
*Jiyao Fang* states: Chop a mulberry tree and apply the white sap.
