论述说:凡是春末夏初,狗多发狂,必须预防。如果预防了仍不免被咬,没有什么比艾灸更好的了,百日之中有一天不中断,才能免除灾难。如果刚看到疮口愈合疼痛停止,就说平复了,这是最可怕的,大祸即将降临,死亡就在旦夕之间。凡是狂犬咬人之后,就会让人发狂,精神已经改变,如何得知?只要看艾灸的时候,一次火灸下去,就觉得心中清醒明白。才知道被咬后即发狂。此病非常严重,世人都轻视它,不以为意,因此坐以待毙而死的人,常年都有。我初学医时,尚未以此为业。有人遭遇此事,来问我,完全不知道如何回答,因此经我手而死的人不止一个,从此专心致力于医学,自理解以来,治疗的都痊愈了,才知道世上没有好医生,枉死者占一半,这话不假,所以后来学习者不仅这一种方法,其余各方都必须深思留心注意,勤奋学习,才能通晓。不要因为粗略懂得一二种方法,就认为知道了,这极容易误事。
凡是狗咬人,七天应当发作一次,三七二十一天不发作则脱离危险。要过一百天才能免除灾祸。每到七天应当捣韭汁饮用一二升,并且应当终身禁食犬肉、蚕蛹,吃了这些就会发作,死了不可救药。疮未痊愈期间,禁食生鱼及各种肥腻冷食,只有在饭下蒸鱼,以及在肥腻器皿中吃的食物就会引发。不宜饮酒,能过一年才好。(《集验方》说:如果复发者,生食蟾蜍极好,也可以烧炙食用,不必让病人知道,刚得到咬伤毒气时就这样做,那么以后就不会再发作了)。

Discussion:
In late spring and early summer, dogs often go mad; prevention is essential. If bitten despite prevention, nothing is better than moxibustion. One must not miss a single day for 100 days to avoid disaster. If the wound appears healed and pain stops initially, claiming recovery is most dangerous; great calamity is imminent, and death may come at dawn or dusk. After being bitten by a rabid dog, madness ensues, and the spirit changes. How to know? Observe during moxibustion: after one application of fire, one feels suddenly clear-minded. This confirms rabies has set in. This disease is extremely serious, yet the world neglects it. Many die because of this negligence. When I first studied medicine, someone asked me about this, and I did not know how to respond; several died under my watch. Since then, I dedicated myself to study. Since understanding this, all treated patients recovered. Thus, I realize half the deaths in the world are due to lack of good doctors; this is not false. Future students must not only learn this method but ponder all other formulas carefully, study diligently, and achieve mastery. Do not think you know everything just because you understand a few methods; this leads to great error.
For dog bites, symptoms should appear every seven days. If they do not appear after 21 days (3 x 7), the danger passes. One must pass 100 days to be safe. Every seven days, crush and drink 1-2 sheng of Chinese chive juice. Lifelong abstinence from dog meat and silkworm pupae is required; consuming these triggers recurrence, which is fatal. During the healing period, avoid raw fish and greasy/cold foods. Only steamed fish with rice or food from greasy vessels might trigger it. Avoid alcohol; recovery is best if one survives a year. (*Ji Yan Fang* states: for severe recurrences, eat raw toad; highly effective. Can also roast and eat; do not tell the patient. Doing this immediately after the bite prevents later recurrence).
Formula for treating dog venom:
Human hair and human skin (equal parts).
Burn the above two ingredients to ash, mix with water, and drink one cup. For lockjaw, pry teeth open to administer medicine.
Another formula: Crush Sanguisorba officinalis root (Diyu), wring out juice to apply to the wound. If fresh is unavailable, use dried, boil in water to drink, or powder and take one cunbi three times a day, plus topical application, for over 100 days.
Another formula: Crush Chinese chive, wring out juice, drink 1 sheng, three times a day; stop when wound heals. Also treats post-healing recurrence.
Another formula: Scrape tiger tooth or bone, take one cunbi. (*Duan Ju Fang* states: scrape wild wolf tooth or tiger bone powder; effective for those already mad like dogs).
Another formula: Burn tiger bone to apply to wound and moxa. Lightly roast almonds, pound, extract juice, and drink; effective. Also pour residual lamp oil into the wound; abstain from alcohol, pork, beef, mutton, and raw vegetables.
Another formula: Take one handful of Chinese chive root, two old combs, boil in 2 sheng of water to obtain 1 sheng; take in one dose.
Another formula: Take one handful of the white bark from the southeast branch of a peach tree, boil in 2 sheng of water to obtain 1 sheng; divide into two doses; expels "dog offspring."
Another formula: Apply dog brain; prevents recurrence.
Another formula: Take toad ash, take with gruel broth.
Another formula: Take seven seeds of Datura metel (Langdangzi), once a day.
Another formula: Powdered plum fruit, take with wine.
Another formula: Apply soybean paste liquor, three to four times a day.
Formula for treating rabid dog bites:
One dried snake slice, roast and remove head, powder; take half a fenbi, three times a day. Also burn to powder and insert into the wound hole.
Another formula: Pound Datura root, mix with salt, apply; three times a day.
Another formula: Soak green cloth in water, drink 3 sheng of the juice.
Another formula: Drink 1-2 sheng of donkey urine.
Formula for general dog bites:
Roast 0.5 sheng of almonds until black, grind into paste, and apply.
Another formula: Apply hot ash from the stove to the wound, cover with silk bandage.
Another formula: Powder rat feces, mix with rendered pig fat, and apply. (*Waitai Mi Yao* states: fry one rat in pig fat and apply).
Another formula: Drink 1 sheng of ginger juice. (*Duan Ju Fang* states: treats rabid dog bites). Chive juice is also good. (*Waitai Mi Yao* states: also treats post-healing recurrence).
Another formula: Wash the wound with water until bleeding occurs; do not stop it. Continue washing until bleeding stops naturally, then wrap in cotton; cured.
Another formula: Mix boiling water with ash, apply to the wound.
Another formula: Burn dog tail to powder, apply to wound, three times a day.
Another formula: Insert a small amount of scalp dirt into the wound.
