治痈疽疮毒,骑竹马灸法∶用薄篦量患人手上尺泽穴,横纹比起,循肉至中指尖止,截
外用竹杠一条,以竹杠两头置凳上,令患人去衣,骑竹杠以足微点地。以先比篦安杠上,竖
篦,循背直上,篦尽处以墨点记。只是取中,非灸穴也。更以薄篦量手中指节两横纹为一寸
,将篦于所点墨上两旁各量一寸是穴。各灸五壮或七壮止,不可多灸。此法灸之,无不愈者
。盖此二穴,心脉所过,凡痈疽之疾,皆心气留滞,故生此毒,灸此则心脉流通,实时安愈
,可以起死回生,有非常效。

治疗痈疽疮毒,采用骑竹马灸法:用薄篦子量取患者手上尺泽穴至横纹处,顺着肌肉延伸至中指尖端为止,截取这段长度。
外用一根竹杠,将竹杠两端放置在凳子上,让患者脱去衣物,骑跨在竹杠上,双脚微微点地。将刚才截取的薄篦子放在竹杠上,竖直放置,沿着背部直向上移动,当篦子尽头处用墨汁做标记。这只是为了取中间位置,并非直接灸穴位。再用薄篦子量取手中指节的两条横纹之间的距离作为一寸,将篦子放在刚才点的墨迹两侧,各量出一寸的距离,即为穴位。每侧各灸五壮或七壮即可,不可多灸。此法施灸后,没有不痊愈的。因为这两个穴位是心脉经过的地方,凡是痈疽之疾,都是心气留滞所致,所以产生这种毒疮,灸这里能使心脉流通,立即安愈,可以起死回生,有非常显著的疗效。
热风隐疹(风热引起的皮肤红斑瘙痒):肩髃、曲池、曲泽、环跳、合谷、涌泉。
瘰疬(颈部淋巴结结核):少海(先推针于皮上三十六息,将针推入内部,探查核的大小,不要刺出核体,操作三十三下后出针)、天池、章门、临泣、支沟、阳辅(百壮)、手三里、肩井(随年龄定壮数)。
疥癣疮:曲池、支沟、阳溪、阳谷、大陵、合谷、后溪、委中、足三里、阳辅、昆仑、行间、三阴交、百虫窠(即膝眼穴)。
痈疽发背(背部痈疽):肩井、委中(用蒜片贴在疮面上施灸。如果不痛,灸到感到疼痛;如果痛,灸到不痛,则痊愈)。
To treat carbuncles, ulcers, and sores, the "Riding on a Bamboo Horse" moxibustion method is used: Use a thin comb to measure from the Chize (LU5) acupoint on the patient's hand at the transverse crease, following the muscle down to the tip of the middle finger. Cut this length.
Take a bamboo pole externally, place both ends of the pole on stools, have the patient remove clothing, and straddle the bamboo pole with feet slightly touching the ground. Place the previously cut thin comb on the pole, hold it vertically, and slide it straight up along the back. Mark the point where the comb ends with ink. This is merely to find the midpoint, not a specific acupoint for moxibustion yet. Then, use a thin comb to measure the distance between the two transverse creases of the middle finger joint as one cun. Place the comb on either side of the marked ink point, measuring one cun on each side; these are the acupoints. Moxa for five or seven moxa cones (zhuang) on each side; do not over-moxa. This method of moxibustion ensures recovery in all cases. These two acupoints are traversed by the Heart meridian. All diseases of carbuncles and ulcers are caused by stagnation of Heart Qi, leading to toxic accumulation. Moxibustion here promotes the flow of the Heart meridian, resulting in immediate healing, capable of reviving the dying, with extraordinary efficacy.
