Liu Juanzi's prescription for treating back carbuncle (Fa Bei) and breast carbuncle (Fa Ru), where the wound has closed, skin is tight and painful, and necrotic flesh is falling off. Danshen Gao (Cinnamon Twig Decoction - *Note: Contextually refers to a plaster/paste made with Danshen*).
Danshen (Salviae Miltiorrhizae Radix et Rhizoma), Fangfeng (Saposhnikoviae Radix), Baizhi (Angelicae Dahuricae Radix), Xixin (Asari Radix et Rhizoma), Chuanxiong (Ligustici Chuanxiong Rhizoma), Huangqin (Scutellariae Radix), Shaoyao (Paeoniae Radix), Niuxi (Achyranthis Bidentatae Radix), Dahuang (Rhei Radix et Rhizoma), Huaizi (Sophorae Flavescentis Semen), Duohuo (Angelicae Pubescentis Radix), Danggui (Angelicae Sinensis Radix) (each 1 liang).
The above twelve herbs are chopped, boiled in five sheng of lard from the twelfth lunar month over low heat, performing the "three ups and three downs" technique repeatedly. Apply the paste to the affected area three or four times daily; do not expose to direct fire. (Same as recorded in Volume 5 of *Gujin Luyan*).
*Zhouhou Beiji Fang* (Essential Prescriptions Worth a Thousand Gold for Emergencies) for treating various carbuncles, back carbuncles, and breast abscesses.
Charify rice flour until black, mix with egg white, apply onto silk gauze, and patch over the carbuncle. Make a small hole in the gauze to allow toxic vapors to dissipate. Replace when dry. This medicine is miraculous. (Same as *Wenzhong Beijifang*).
Another prescription:
Grind soot from the bottom of a cauldron into powder, mix with egg yolk, and apply. Adding a little fermented soybean (Douchi) is better. Using garlic and a little salt in May is excellent. (Same as *Wenzhong Beijifang*; another version lacks this method).
Another prescription:
Take one sheng of cornel fruit (Zhuyu), crush it, mix with vinegar, and apply to the carbuncle. Replace when dry.
*Shanfan Fang* for treating carbuncles and back carbuncles, Jiuwu Dahuang Bo Tie (Nine-Ingredient Large Yellow Thin Plaster).

Boil the trotters in three dou of water until cooked. Clarify to obtain two dou of clear liquid. Chop the herbs, boil in the liquid to obtain one dou. Wash the wound for the duration of a meal. Wipe dry with cotton. Apply Shengrou Gao (Flesh Regenerating Paste). Twice daily leads to cure, forming scabs and relieving pain. Adding Danggui and Gancao (Licorice Root) each 2 liang is beneficial.
Another prescription for carbuncles on ten fingers, or arising from the bladder and back with malignant flesh growth.
Zhu Ti (Pig Trotter) (one piece), Danggui (Angelicae Sinensis Radix), Dahuang (Rhei Radix et Rhizoma), Chuanxiong (Ligustici Chuanxiong Rhizoma), Shaoyao (Paeoniae Radix), Huangqin (Scutellariae Radix), Duohuo (Angelicae Pubescentis Radix), Mangcao (Chenopodi Herba) (each 1 liang).

Another prescription for accumulated pus that has grown long.
Crush fresh Trichosanthis Radix (Gualou Gen) finely, mix with vinegar, and apply. Replace when dry. Red bean powder is also good.
Another prescription for back carbuncles, whether ulcerated or not.
Take three sheng of Douchi (Fermented Soybean), add a little water, cook thoroughly, and pound into a thick mud. Form into cakes, three fen thick. Do not cover existing holes. Place the cake on the swelling. Arrange moxa on top and moxibustion the cake until warm/hot, but do not break the skin. Change immediately if pain/heat is severe. The carbuncle should subside and bring relief. Moxibustion once or twice daily. If there was a pre-existing hole, discharge of fluid indicates cure. (Same as *Beiji Fang*, Wenzhong, and *Yi Fang*).
Another prescription for early-stage back carbuncles, or those persisting over ten days with severe swelling, heat, intense toxic vapor, day-and-night pain, unresponsive to all medicines.
Egg (one), Fresh dog feces (size of an egg).
Mix well. Cook over low heat to desired consistency. Shape into a cake. Apply to the hard center of the swelling. Secure with paper and cotton.
