有一位患有心疾的患者,看到物体都像是狮子。程伊芳川教导他把手向前直伸去捕捉它,发现手中空无一物,久而久之便自愈了。
一位妇女患有热病,眼睛盯着墙壁看,觉得墙上满是红色的莲花。医生使用滚痰丸通过泻下的方法治疗,病就好了。
一位产妇在产后突然感到双侧乳房变得细小,下垂且疼痛剧烈,这种病症被称为“乳悬”。使用川芎、当归各两斤,其中半斤煎水内服,剩下的用火烧成烟来熏蒸口鼻,服用两剂后痊愈。
另一位产妇在产后,阴道中排出一条肉线,长度有一尺多,触动它则疼痛难忍。先服用几剂失笑散,然后用带皮的生姜三斤研烂,加入清油二斤,煎至油干为止。用绢布兜住那条肉线,将其弯曲放置在产道旁边,用煎好的姜汤蒸汽熏蒸,凉了就用热敷熨烫。一天一夜后肉线缩小了一半以上,两天后完全缩回体内。再服用失笑散和芎归汤进行调理。如果肉线断裂,则无法治愈。
有人患肿毒溃烂时,经常排出一根细小的骨头,这种病症称为“剩骨痈”。用生桐油调和密陀僧制成膏药,用绢布摊开贴敷,病愈。
有人艾灸达到五壮时,流出一缕血,急迫得像尿失禁一样,手脚冰冷几乎要断绝。用酒炒过的黄芩一两到二钱研成粉末,用酒送服,出血停止。

有人手指关节间疼痛难以忍受,逐渐发展到指节脱落。用去壳的蓖麻子二两,破碎的不使用。黄连四两存放在瓶子里,加入水二升浸泡,春夏季节三天,秋冬季节五天。每天早晨面向东方,用此水吞服一粒蓖麻子,逐渐增加到四、五粒,轻微腹泻无妨,忌食动风的食物,多次验证有效。
A patient suffering from a heart disorder (Xin Ji) perceived objects as lions. Cheng Yifangchuan instructed him to reach out his hand straight forward to catch them; upon finding nothing in his hand, the condition healed itself after a long period.
A woman suffered from a heat disease (Re Bing), staring at the wall and perceiving red lotus flowers covering it. The physician treated her with Gun Tan Wan (Rolling Phlegm Pill) via purgation, resulting in recovery.
A postpartum woman suddenly experienced shrinking of both breasts, which hung down severely and caused intense pain, a condition named "Ru Xuan" (Breast Suspension). She was prescribed Chuanxiong Rhizoma (Chuanxiong) and Angelicae Sinensis Radix (Danggui), each two jin. Half a jin was decocted in water for oral administration, while the remainder was burned to produce smoke for fumigating the mouth and nose. After two doses, she recovered.
Another postpartum woman expelled a fleshy cord from the vagina, over one chi in length; touching it caused excruciating pain. Initially, she took several doses of Shixiao San (Pain-Relieving Powder). Subsequently, three jin of ginger with skin were mashed, mixed with two jin of refined sesame oil, and boiled until the oil was dry. The fleshy cord was gathered with silk cloth, bent near the vaginal opening, and fumigated with the hot ginger-oil mixture; when cool, it was applied as a compress. After one day and night, the cord shrank by more than half, and within two days, it retracted completely. She then took Shixiao San and Xiong Gui Tang (Chuanxiong and Danggui Decoction) for regulation. If the fleshy cord had severed, it would have been incurable.
A patient with a suppurating carbuncle (Zhong Du) frequently expelled a small bone, a condition termed "Sheng Gu Yong" (Remaining Bone Carbuncle). It was treated with a paste made of raw Sesame Oil (Tong You) and Lithargite (Miduoseng), applied on silk gauze, leading to recovery.
During moxibustion reaching five zhu (units of moxa cone size), a stream of blood flowed out urgently, resembling urinary incontinence, accompanied by cold hands nearly approaching amputation. One or two qian of Scutellariae Radix (Huangqin) stir-fried with wine was powdered and taken with wine to stop the bleeding.
A person occasionally had maggots emerging from inside the scalp. The skin was incised with a knife, and juice from crushed Luffae Folium (Sigua Ye) was applied externally. Once the maggots were fully expelled, the root cause was eliminated.
For an infant with ulcerated chickenpox generating maggots, branches of Salix alba (Liu Tiao) with leaves were spread on the ground, and the infant was laid upon them. The maggots emerged entirely, and the infant recovered.
An Yuan Ju (Deep Abscess) developed under the ribcage. After a long duration, it ulcerated, emitting sounds like a baby crying from the orifice. Moxibustion applied to Yanglingquan (GB34) for fourteen zhu (two times seven) stopped the sound immediately.
There was a case of a worm in the abdomen that spoke like a human, responding to whatever words were spoken, known as "Ying Sheng Chong" (Echoing Sound Worm). When reading drug names from Ben Cao Gang Mu (Compendium of Materia Medica), it responded to all except "Lei Wan" (Omphalia Lapponica). Upon administering Lei Wan, the worm's voice ceased.
A person suffered unbearable pain in the finger joints, which gradually progressed to joint detachment. Two liang of Castor Seed (Bimazi) with shells removed (broken ones excluded) were used. Four liang of Coptidis Rhizoma (Huanglian) were stored in a bottle, soaked in two sheng of water. For spring and summer, soak for three days; for autumn and winter, five days. Every morning facing east, swallow one Castor Seed with this water, gradually increasing to four or five seeds. Mild diarrhea is harmless. Avoid foods that stir wind. This method has been verified repeatedly.
