消坚肿，定酸痛，阴寒之证甚效。
急性子
一味研末，随证大小酌用，热陈酒调敷患处，外用温煦薄贴盖之，或调入温煦薄贴作浓
膏药贴亦佳。
【方解】 急性子性最激烈，内服催生堕胎，其效甚迅。以作外治，宜其通经入
络，散肿定痛，捷于影响。此寿颐以意为之，试用颇应，命名“独圣”，允无愧色。
治暑疡热疖，小证初起，能消坚块止痛。此酒色如酱油，耳食者皆谓西法酱油药水可以
消毒，即此。
碘片（一钱五分） 火酒（四两）
此药入酒即化，用时以毛笔蘸酒涂患处，一抹即干。不可频搽，须隔五六小时再搽一次
，肌肤小疖自能消散。如搽之太过，即令外皮腐烂，滋水侵淫，反以贻害。
【方解】 此西法也。西学家亦以为普通用品。然碘片之力极厉，贮入瓷瓶中，
如以木
，自能深入肌腠，以消坚块。但药性自外而入，几如硝镪性质，频频用之，即令肌肤发腐，
而内之坚块如故，所以只能治小小之疖，浅在皮里方能有效。若肿块稍深，则药力亦不及病
所，纵使外皮腐烂，亦不能消其坚肿。恒见有并以治瘰 痰核，深藏经络之证，则未见其利
，只见其弊，是不知于药物性质上体会研究者也。
疡患初起，其有形块者，但贴退消膏药，已是适用；而漫肿无垠，不辨根脚者，则薄贴
即无所用之。此惟末子敷药，可以遍涂患处，使之收束，其轻者亦可消散。市肆中有如意金
黄散一种，未尝普通习用之品，疡医书中无不载之。然药味尚未免稍杂，轻证可效，重大者
颇嫌不胜其任；且只此一方，而以通治寒热虚实，总嫌笼统不切。徐洄溪所谓一证有一证切
要之药，非通套方剂，可以奏效云云，固亦有见于此。然必每证各备敷药亦太繁琐，此老盖
未免大言欺人。敝师门朱氏分温凉两种，如薄贴之例，亦已无施不可。简而能赅，是可法也
消除坚结肿胀，缓解酸痛，对于阴寒性质的病证效果显著。
急性子
将单味药研成粉末，根据病情轻重酌情使用，用陈年的热酒调匀后敷于患处，外用温煦薄贴覆盖；或者将其调入温煦薄贴中制成浓膏药贴敷，效果也很好。
【方解】 急性子的药性最为猛烈，内服时催产堕胎，见效极快。用于外治，应当能通经入络，消散肿结、定痛，其效验迅速如影随形。这是我（寿颐）凭经验构思并试用，效果确实很好，命名为“独圣”，当之无愧。
治疗暑天疮疡、热疖，小病初起时，能消除坚块、止痛。此药液颜色像酱油，听信传闻的人都说这是西法的酱油药水可以消毒，指的就是这个。
碘片（一钱五分） 火酒（四两）
此药放入酒中即溶解，使用时用毛笔蘸取药酒涂抹患处，一抹即干。不可频繁涂抹，需间隔五六小时再涂一次，皮肤上的小疖子自然能消散。如果涂抹过度，会导致外皮腐烂，渗出液体浸淫，反而造成危害。
【方解】 这是西法。西方学者也视其为普通用品。然而碘片的药力极其猛烈，贮存在瓷瓶中，如果用木杵研磨，它能深入肌肤纹理，以消除坚块。但药物性质是从外部进入体内，几乎具有硝镪（强腐蚀性化学品）的性质，频繁使用，会导致肌肤腐烂，而内部的坚块依然如故，所以只能治疗小小的疖子，仅在皮里浅表部位才有效。如果肿块位置稍深，药力就达不到病灶所在，即使外皮腐烂，也不能消除其坚肿。经常见到有人用它来治疗瘰疬痰核这种深藏于经络的病证，只见弊端不见益处，这是因为不了解药物性质并进行体会研究所致。
疮疡病患初起，有形的肿块，只要贴退消膏药，就已经适用；如果是漫肿无边界、无法辨别根脚的，那么薄贴就没有用处了。这只有末子敷药，可以遍涂患处，使肿势收束，轻症也可以消散。市面上有一种如意金黄散，并非普遍习用的物品，但在疡医书中无不记载。然而药味未免稍杂，轻症可效，重症颇嫌不能胜任；而且只有这一种方剂，却用来通治寒热虚实各种情况，总嫌笼统不确切。徐洄溪曾说：“一个证候有一个证候切要的用药，不是通用的套方，可以奏效”，这话固然也有见于此理。但是必须每个证候都准备不同的敷药也太繁琐，这位老先生（指徐洄溪）恐怕未免有些夸大其词欺骗人。我的师门朱氏先生将其分为温凉两种，像薄贴那样分类，也已经无所不可了。简洁而能涵盖全面，这是值得效法的。
Eliminates indurated swelling and relieves soreness and pain; it is particularly effective for conditions of Yin-cold nature.
*Impatiens glandulifera Herba* (Jixingzi)
Grind the single herb into powder, use an appropriate amount according to the severity of the condition, mix with aged hot wine, and apply topically to the affected area. Cover with a warm plaster externally, or mix into the warm plaster to make a thick paste for application, which is also excellent.
[Formula Analysis] *Impatiens glandulifera Herba* has the most intense medicinal property. When taken internally, it induces labor and aborts fetuses with rapid effect. For external treatment, it should be able to unblock meridians and enter collaterals, dissipate swelling and relieve pain, with efficacy as swift as shadow following form. This was conceived by my own intention (Shouyi), tested and found effective. Naming it "Du Sheng" (Solely Holy) is fully justified.
Treats summer-heat sores and heat boils in their early stages; can eliminate indurated masses and relieve pain. The liquid is dark like soy sauce. Those who listen to hearsay claim that Western-style soy sauce water can disinfect, referring to this preparation.
Iodine Tablets (1.5 qian) / Spiritus Vini Rectificatus (4 liang)
The medicine dissolves immediately upon entering the wine. When used, dip a brush into the solution and paint it on the affected area; it dries instantly after one stroke. Do not apply frequently; wait five to six hours before applying again. Small boils on the skin will naturally dissipate. If applied excessively, it causes the epidermis to rot and exudate to spread, causing harm instead.
[Formula Analysis] This is a Western method. Western scholars also consider it a common item. However, the power of Iodine is extremely fierce. Stored in porcelain bottles, if ground with a wooden pestle, it can penetrate deep into the muscle tissue to eliminate induration. But since the medicinal nature enters from the outside, it is akin to the properties of strong acids (Xiao Qiang). Frequent use causes the skin to rot while the internal induration remains unchanged. Therefore, it is only effective for small boils located superficially in the skin. If the mass is slightly deeper, the medicinal power cannot reach the disease site; even if the epidermis rots, it cannot eliminate the induration and swelling. It is often seen that people use it to treat scrofula and phlegm nodules, conditions deeply hidden in the meridians, where only disadvantages are seen without benefits. This stems from a failure to understand and study the nature of the drugs.
In the early stage of ulcerative diseases, if there is a palpable mass, applying the Tuixiao Plaster is already applicable. However, for diffuse swelling without boundaries and unclear roots, plasters are useless. Only powdered敷药 (topical powders) can be applied all over the affected area to consolidate the swelling, and mild cases can also dissipate. In the market, there is a product called Ruyi Jinhuang San. Although it is not a universally commonly used item, it is recorded in all surgical texts. However, the ingredients are somewhat complex; it is effective for mild cases but insufficient for severe ones. Moreover, relying solely on this one formula to treat all conditions of cold, heat, deficiency, and excess is too general and imprecise. Xu Huixi stated, "Each syndrome requires specific essential herbs; generic formulas cannot achieve efficacy." This statement certainly has merit here. However, preparing different topical powders for every syndrome is too cumbersome. That old gentleman (referring to Xu Huixi) might have been exaggerating to deceive people. My master's school, the Zhu family, divided them into warm and cool types, similar to the classification of plasters, making them versatile. Concise yet comprehensive, this approach is worthy of emulation.
