〔薛〕囊痈属肝经湿热,或禀胎肝热所致。初起肿痛,小便赤涩者,湿热壅滞也,
先用龙胆泻肝汤。如不消,用仙方活命饮。若肿痛数日不止,欲作脓也,用托里消
毒散。若肿未溃而小便不利者,毒瓦斯壅滞也,当分利之。脓已成而小便不利,毒瓦斯
未解也,当针泄之。脓出而反痛者,气血虚也,当补益之;若元气无亏,虽阴囊悉
溃,睾丸悬露,亦不为害。若乳母恚怒,令儿患此者,加味逍遥散。肝经气血虚者,
八珍散、加味柴胡、山栀,俱加漏芦,子母并服。
托里清肝散
人参 黄 (炒) 当归 川芎 芍药(炒) 白术 茯苓 金银花 白芷(炒) 甘草(炒)
连翘 柴胡(各七分) 山栀(四分)

〔薛〕足指冻疮,因受禀虚怯,故寒邪易乘,气血凝滞,久而不愈,则溃烂成疮。
治法,须壮脾胃,温气血,则死肉自溃,良肉自生。若骨脱筋连者,宜急剪去,否
则毒延脚面而死。盖肢末之处,气血难到,又为外邪遏绝,则气血不能营运,若用
汤烫火烘,其肉即死而不仁,至春必溃腐脱落。元气无亏,虽患无害,如外敷寒药,
内服消毒之剂,则元气受伤,必成败证。凡初冻时热手频熨之为妙。北方冻耳,莫
误以手触之,其耳即落,大寒能裂肤堕指,信然。

白蔹散

【薛己】囊痈属于肝经湿热,或者是先天禀受胎毒肝热所致。初起时出现肿痛,小便颜色红赤且排尿涩痛,这是湿热壅滞的表现,应当先用龙胆泻肝汤治疗。如果症状没有消退,改用仙方活命饮。如果肿痛持续数日不止,说明即将化脓,应使用托里消毒散。如果肿胀尚未溃破但小便不通利,这是毒邪壅滞,应当通过分利小便的方法治疗。如果脓液已经形成但小便仍不通利,说明毒邪未解,应当针刺排脓。如果脓液排出后反而疼痛加剧,这是气血虚弱,应当进行补益;如果元气没有亏损,即使阴囊全部溃烂、睾丸暴露,也不会造成危害。如果是由于乳母愤怒导致婴儿患此病,加用加味逍遥散。对于肝经气血虚弱的患者,使用八珍散或加味柴胡、山栀(均加入漏芦),母子同时服用。
托里清肝散
人参 黄芩(炒) 当归 川芎 芍药(炒) 白术 茯苓 金银花 白芷(炒) 甘草(炒) 连翘 柴胡(各七分) 山栀(四分)
以上药材,每次服用二三钱,加水煎煮。
钱氏蚯蚓散 治疗肾子(睾丸)肿硬。先用葱椒汤煎水清洗,然后用干燥的蚯蚓粪混合唾液调敷患处。必须避开风冷潮湿的地方。
民间流传治疗小儿阴囊肿大的方法:用甘草煎成浓汁,调和蚯蚓粪涂抹患处,立即见效。
山药膏 治疗两拗(指腋下或身体两侧凹陷处)及小腹肿痛或瘙痒。将山药研烂,频繁敷在患处,干了就更换。
【薛己】足趾冻疮,是因为禀赋虚弱怯懦,所以寒邪容易侵袭,导致气血凝滞,时间久了不愈合,就会溃烂成疮。治疗方法,必须强壮脾胃,温养气血,那么坏死组织自然会脱落,健康组织自然生长。如果骨头脱出、筋脉相连,应当紧急剪去坏死部分,否则毒素蔓延至脚面会导致死亡。因为肢体末端气血难以到达,又被外邪遏制隔绝,导致气血不能运行,如果用热水烫或火烤,肌肉就会死亡而失去知觉,到了春天必然溃烂腐坏脱落。如果元气没有亏损,即使患病也无大碍;如果外用寒凉药物,内服解毒剂,则会损伤元气,必然导致败证。凡是刚冻伤时,用热手频繁熨烫是妙法。北方人冻耳朵,不要误用手去触摸,否则耳朵会掉落,极寒确实能裂开皮肤、使手指脱落,这是确有其事的。
汤氏生附散 治疗烂脚疮。用生附子末,用面粉和水调匀敷在患处,即可痊愈。
白蔹散
用白蔹(一两) 黄柏(炒黑,五钱) 研为细末,干撒在患处。
[Xue] Scrotal carbuncle belongs to damp-heat in the Liver channel, or is caused by congenital liver heat. At the initial stage, if swelling and pain occur with red and scanty urine, it indicates stagnation of damp-heat; initially use Longdan Xiegan Tang (Gentiana Decoction to Drain the Liver). If it does not subside, use Xianfang Huoming Yin (Immortal Life Elixir). If swelling and pain persist for several days, indicating suppuration is imminent, use Tuoli Xiaodu San (Supporting the Interior and Eliminating Toxin Powder). If swelling has not ulcerated but urination is difficult, this is stagnation of toxic qi; it should be treated by promoting diuresis. If pus has formed but urination remains difficult, the toxic qi has not been resolved; it should be drained by acupuncture. If pain persists after pus discharge, it indicates deficiency of Qi and Blood; tonification should be applied. If Yuan Qi (Original Qi) is not depleted, even if the entire scrotum ulcerates and the testicles are exposed, it will not cause harm. If the disease is caused by the wet nurse's anger, Jiawei Xiaoyao San (Modified Free and Easy Wanderer Powder) should be added. For patients with deficiency of Qi and Blood in the Liver channel, Bazhen San (Eight Treasures Powder) or Chaihu Shugan San modified with Gardenia and Radix Leuzeae (Loulu), taken by both mother and child, may be used.
Tuoli Qinggan San (Supporting the Interior and Clearing Liver Heat Powder)
Ren Shen (Ginseng Radix), Huang Qin (Scutellariae Radix, stir-fried), Dang Gui (Angelicae Sinensis Radix), Chuan Xiong (Ligustici Chuanxiong Rhizoma), Bai Shao (Paeoniae Radix Alba, stir-fried), Bai Zhu (Atractylodis Macrocephalae Rhizoma), Fu Ling (Poria), Jinyinhua (Lonicerae Japonicae Flos), Baizhi (Angelicae Dahuricae Radix, stir-fried), Gancao (Glycyrrhizae Radix et Rhizoma, stir-fried), Lianqiao (Forsythiae Fructus), Chaihu (Bupleuri Radix) (each 0.7 fen), Zhizi (Gardeniae Fructus) (0.4 fen).
Grind the above herbs into powder. Each dose is 2-3 qian, decocted in water.
Qian Shi Leiwan San (Qian's Earthworm Powder) treats swelling and hardness of the testicles. First wash with a decoction of green onion and pepper, then apply dry earthworm feces mixed with saliva to the affected area. Avoid wind, cold, and damp places.
A folk remedy for pediatric scrotal enlargement: decoct Licorice root into a thick juice, mix with earthworm feces, and apply to the site; effect is immediate.
Shanyao Gao (Dioscorea Paste) treats swelling, pain, or itching in the axillae/upper abdomen and lower abdomen. Grind Dioscorea rhizome into a paste, apply frequently to the affected area, and replace when dry.
[Xue] Frostbite of the toes occurs due to constitutional weakness and timidity, allowing Cold pathogenic factors to easily invade. This leads to stagnation of Qi and Blood. If prolonged without healing, it ulcerates into sores. The treatment method requires strengthening the Spleen and Stomach and warming Qi and Blood, so that necrotic tissue naturally sloughs off and healthy tissue regenerates. If bone is exposed and connected by tendons, the necrotic part should be urgently excised; otherwise, toxins spreading to the dorsum of the foot will cause death. Since Qi and Blood struggle to reach the extremities, and are blocked by external pathogens, circulation is impeded. Using hot water or fire to warm the area causes the flesh to die and become insensate, leading to ulceration and sloughing in spring. If Yuan Qi is intact, the condition is not harmful. However, applying cold medicines externally or taking detoxifying agents internally damages Yuan Qi and inevitably leads to fatal complications. It is best to frequently rub the frostbitten area with warm hands immediately after injury. In northern regions, do not touch frostbitten ears with bare hands, as they may fall off; extreme cold indeed cracks skin and causes fingers to drop, which is true.
Tang Shi Shengfu San (Tang's Raw Aconite Powder) treats gangrenous foot sores. Use powder of raw Aconite root, mix with flour and water, and apply to the lesion; it heals.
Bailian San (Ampelopsis Powder)
Use Ampelopsis rhizome (1 liang) and Phellodendron bark (stir-fried until black, 5 qian). Grind into powder and sprinkle dry onto the affected area.
