一女年十四，腕软处生物如黄豆大，半在肉中，红紫色，痛甚，诸药不效。一方士以水
银四两，白纸一张，揉熟蘸银搽之，三日自落而愈。（李楼怪证方）
远按∶陈藏器云∶人患疮疥，多以水银涂之。性滑重，直入肉，宜谨之，头疮更不可用，
恐入筋络，必缓筋骨，百药不能治也，砒亦不可轻用，附识于此，使人知。非万不得已，不
得轻用。
比岁有病天行，发斑疮，头面及身，须臾周匝，状如火烧，疮皆戴白浆，随决随生，不
治，数日必死。瘥后瘢点，弥岁方灭，此恶毒之气所为。云∶晋·元帝时，此病自西北流起，
名虏疮。以蜜煎升麻，时时食之。并以水煮升麻，绵沾拭洗之。（葛洪肘后方）
又方
取好蜜，通摩疮上，以蜜煎升麻数数拭之。
须臾，遍身皆戴白浆，此恶毒瓦斯也。唐高宗永徽四年，此疮自西域东流于海内。但煮葵
菜叶，以蒜 啖之则止。（唐王焘外台秘要）
如棠梨状，每个出水有石，一按如指甲大，其泡复生。抽尽肌肉即不可治。用荆三棱、
蓬莪术各五两为末，分三服，酒调连进愈。（危氏得效方）
肉中忽生一 子，大如豆粟，或如梅李，或赤、或黑、或白、或青，其 有核，核有
根，应心能烂筋骨；毒入脏腑即杀人。但饮葵根汁，可折其热毒。（姚僧坦集验方）
按《本草·酸模条下》云∶宜灸 上百壮，以酸模叶薄其四面，以防其长。然后内服葵
根汁
一位十四岁的女子，手腕柔软处生出一个像黄豆大小的赘生物，一半长在肉里，呈红紫色，疼痛剧烈，各种药物都无效。有一位方士用四两水银和一张白纸，揉搓至熟透，蘸取银粉涂抹患处，三天后赘生物自然脱落而痊愈。（出自《李楼怪证方》）
我按语：陈藏器说：“人患疮疥，多用水银涂抹。水银性质滑利沉重，能直接深入肌肉，应当谨慎使用。头部的疮疡更不可用，恐怕毒气进入筋络，必然导致筋骨松弛萎缩，届时百药难治。砒霜也不可轻易使用，在此附记，使人知晓。除非万不得已，不得轻率使用。”
近年来有流行病发作，出现斑疮，从头面蔓延至全身，片刻间遍布周身，症状像火烧一样，疮口都带有白色脓浆，破溃后随即新生，如果不治疗，几天内必定死亡。病愈后会留下瘢痕斑点，一年后才消退，这是恶毒之气所致。传说晋元帝时期，这种病从西北方向流传开来，名叫“虏疮”。用蜂蜜煎煮升麻，经常服用。并用清水煮升麻，用棉絮沾取擦拭清洗患处。（出自葛洪《肘后方》）
另一个方子：
取优质蜂蜜，均匀涂抹按摩在疮面上，再用蜜煎煮的升麻多次擦拭患处。
片刻之间，遍身都长出带白浆的疮疱，这是恶毒瓦斯（邪气）。唐高宗永徽四年，这种疮从西域向东流传到中原地区。只需煮葵菜叶，配合吃蒜即可制止病情。（出自唐代王焘《外台秘要》）
如果赘生物像棠梨树果实那样，每个出水并含有结石，一按压大小如指甲，水泡会重新生成。抽尽肌肉组织后就无法治疗了。用荆三棱、蓬莪术各五两研成粉末，分三次服用，用酒调服连续饮用即可痊愈。（出自危氏《得效方》）
肉中忽然长出一个赘生物，大小如豆粟，或像梅李，颜色或红、或黑、或白、或青，这个赘生物有核，核有根，对应心脏部位会导致筋骨腐烂；毒气进入脏腑就会杀人。只要饮用葵根汁，可以折损其热毒。（出自姚僧坦《集验方》）
A fourteen-year-old girl had a growth on her soft wrist area, the size of a soybean, half embedded in the flesh, red-purple in color, with severe pain; various medicines were ineffective. A practitioner used four taels of Mercury (Hydrargyrum), rubbed it with a sheet of white paper until softened, and applied the mercury powder to the lesion. The growth fell off naturally after three days, resulting in a cure. (From *Li Lou Guai Zheng Fang*)
My note: Chen Cangqi stated, "For sores and scabies, people often apply Mercury (Hydrargyrum). Its nature is slippery and heavy, penetrating directly into the flesh; one must be cautious. It should not be used for head sores, as fear exists that it may enter the sinews and collaterals, inevitably causing laxity and atrophy of the bones and sinews, which would be incurable by any medicine. Arsenic (Realgar/Orpiment) should also not be used lightly. I record this here to warn people. Unless absolutely necessary, do not use it rashly."
In recent years, there have been epidemic outbreaks of macular eruptions, starting from the head and face and spreading over the body. Within moments, they cover the entire body, resembling burns. The sores contain white pus; upon rupture, new ones appear immediately. Without treatment, death occurs within a few days. After recovery, scars remain for a year before fading. This is caused by malignant toxic qi. It is said that during the reign of Emperor Yuan of Jin, this disease spread from the northwest, named "Barbarian Sore" (Lu Chuang). Decocted Shengma (Cimicifugae Rhizoma) with honey should be consumed frequently. Additionally, boil Shengma (Cimicifugae Rhizoma) in water, soak cotton in the decoction, and wipe/wash the lesions. (From Ge Hong's *Zhou Hou Bei Ji Fang*)
Another prescription:
Take good quality honey, massage it evenly over the sores, and frequently wipe the area with Shengma (Cimicifugae Rhizoma) decocted in honey.
Within moments, the whole body becomes covered with pustules containing white fluid; this is malignant toxic vapor. In the fourth year of Yonghui during the reign of Emperor Gaozong of Tang, this sore spread eastward from the Western Regions to the interior of China. Boiling Malva leaves and consuming them with garlic can stop the progression. (From Wang Tao's *Wai Tai Mi Yao* of the Tang Dynasty)
If the growth resembles a Chinese pear fruit, exuding fluid and containing stones, pressing it reveals a hardness like a fingernail, and blisters regenerate. If the muscle tissue is exhausted, it becomes incurable. Use five taels each of Sanleng (Sparganii Rhizoma) and Ezhu (Curcumae Rhizoma), ground into powder. Divide into three doses, taken continuously with wine mixed in, until cured. (From Wei Shi's *De Xiao Fang*)
Suddenly, a nodule grows within the flesh, the size of a bean or millet, or like a plum or peach, colored red, black, white, or green. This nodule has a core, and the core has roots; if it corresponds to the heart region, it can rot the sinews and bones. If the toxin enters the zang-fu organs, it causes death. Drinking juice from Avens root (Kui Gen) can mitigate its heat toxicity. (From Yao Sengtan's *Ji Yan Fang*)
According to the *Ben Cao* under the entry for Rumex (Suanmo): "It is suitable to moxa-burn over one hundred cones. Place thin slices of Rumex (Suanmo) leaves around the periphery to prevent further growth. Then, internally administer Avens root (Kui Gen) juice."
