研磨成细末,制成丸药。每次服用五分,用唾液送服。

猎牙皂角(四条,去除黑皮) 白矾(一两)
研磨成细末,每次服用三字。
对于喉闭数日无法进食的患者,用此方催吐。涎沫吐尽,病即痊愈。
皂角的辛散通利之性,能破除结聚之气;白矾的咸苦之性,能涌吐浓稠的涎沫。多次涌吐,涎沫去除,疾病也就消除了。
甘草(五钱) 桔梗 防风(各三钱)

甘草的甘缓之性,能缓解咽喉中的急迫感;桔梗的苦泄之性,能降泄咽喉中的气逆;防风的辛散之性,能疏散咽喉中的壅滞。
将巴豆油涂抹在纸上,捻成条状,点燃火焰,刚冒烟时即吹灭,让患者张开嘴,带着余火刺入咽喉部位。
不久吐出半合紫黑色血液,随即气息宽畅能够说话,并可以喝粥饮水。因为火热之气到达患处,巴豆油起到泻下作用,烟雾起到引导作用,这是一举三得的良方。
在患者手大拇指外侧指甲后约韭菜叶宽处针刺出血,男性取左手,女性取右手,出血即见效。如果病情非常危急,可双手大拇指同时针刺,效果非常迅速。因为喉咙是肺系的组成部分,所针之处为少商穴,它是肺经的井穴,所以通过放血即可痊愈。
Realgar (Liang Huang, 1 liang) Turmeric Tuber (Yujin, 1 qian) Croton Seed (Badou, 14 grains, oil and skin removed)
Grind into fine powder and make into pills. Take 0.5 fen per dose, swallowed with saliva.
This formula is indicated for *Chantou Feng* (Entangling Throat Wind), characterized by acute throat closure.
*Chantou Feng* with acute throat closure is a matter of life and death; urgent treatment leads to survival, while delayed treatment leads to death. In this formula, Realgar breaks up stagnant Qi, Croton Seed expels thick phlegm-saliva, and Turmeric Tuber dissipates malignant blood. By combining these three actions, the obstruction is cleared. Master Danxi generally did not use harsh or toxic medicines in his lifetime; perhaps this formula was used only out of necessity!
Gleditsia Sinensis Fruit (Lieya Zaojiao, 4 strips, black skin removed) Alum (Baifan, 1 liang)
Grind into fine powder. Take 3 zhi per dose.
For patients with *Houbi* (Throat Closure) who have been unable to eat for several days, induce vomiting with this formula. When the phlegm-saliva is completely expelled, the disease resolves.
The pungent and penetrating nature of Gleditsia Sinensis Fruit breaks up stagnant Qi. The salty and bitter nature of Alum induces vomiting of thick phlegm-saliva. Repeated induction of vomiting removes the phlegm-saliva, and the disease is eliminated.
Licorice Root (Gancao, 5 qian) Platycodon Root (Jiegeng) Saposhnikovia Root (Fangfeng) (each 3 qian)
This formula is indicated for sore throat (*Yantong*).
The sweet nature of Licorice Root relieves urgency in the throat. The bitter nature of Platycodon Root directs Qi downward from the throat. The pungent nature of Saposhnikovia Root disperses stagnation in the throat.
Apply Croton Seed oil onto paper, roll it into a strip, ignite it, and extinguish it as soon as smoke appears. Ask the patient to open their mouth, and insert the smoldering strip into the throat.
After a short while, half he of purple-black blood will be expectorated. Immediately, the breath becomes unobstructed, speech resumes, and the patient can consume porridge and drinks. Since the fire reaches the affected area, the Croton Seed oil acts to purge, and the smoke serves to guide; this is a method that achieves three benefits at once.
Prick the point on the outer side of the thumb nail bed, approximately one leek-leaf width behind the nail, to bleed. For males, select the left hand; for females, the right hand. Efficacy is immediate upon bleeding. If the condition is critically severe, prick both thumbs simultaneously for very rapid results. The throat is the connection of the Lung Meridian; the pricked point is Shaoshang (LU-11), which is the Jing-Well point of the Lung Meridian. Therefore, healing occurs through bloodletting.
For patients with redness and swelling in the throat, it is appropriate to prick from the side to bleed, which leads to recovery. The reason for pricking from the side specifically is to avoid the Yamen (GV-15) acupoint, as injuring it causes loss of voice.
