江西州郡亦有之，然不及蜀中者佳。四月初生，苗似姜黄，花白质红，末秋出茎心，无实。
根黄赤，取四畔子根，去皮火干之。古方稀用。今小儿方及马医多用之。谨按许慎《说文

衍义曰∶郁金不香，今人将染妇人衣最鲜明，然不耐日炙。染成衣，则微有郁金之气。
味辛、苦，性寒，无毒。主治血积（瘀血停滞）、下气（降逆气），生肌止血，破除恶血（败血），治疗血淋（小便涩痛带血）、尿血以及金疮（金属利器造成的创伤）。
《唐本草》注解说：这种药的苗叶像姜黄，花白色而质地发红，晚秋时节从茎心抽出，不结种子，根呈黄红色。采摘四周的子根，去掉外皮后火烤干燥。产于蜀地及西戎地区。马医常用此药，能破血兼有补益作用，胡人称之为“马”。岭南地区的郁金有果实，形状像小豆蔻，但不能食用。
（《唐本草》先附）臣禹锡等人谨慎考证《药性论》说：郁金，单用也可以。治疗妇女宿血气引起的心痛，冷气结聚。用温醋磨服。也用作马药，治疗胀痛。
《图经本草》说：郁金，《神农本草经》未记载其出产的州土，苏恭说：产于蜀地及西戎，胡人主要称之为“马”，现在广南、江西各州郡也有，但不及蜀地产的好。四月初生长，苗叶像姜黄，花白色而质地发红，晚秋从茎心抽出，不结种子。根黄红色，采摘四周的子根，去皮后火烤干燥。古方中很少使用。现在小儿方剂及马医多用之。谨按许慎《说文解字》说：郁，是芳草。十片叶子为一贯，一百二十贯捣碎煮制成为郁。郁，指现在的郁林郡。木部中品中有郁金香，说产于大秦国。二月、三月开花，形状像红蓝花，它的花就是香料。陈氏说：它是百草中的精英，既然说是百草中的精英，那就是草类。又与此同名，却放在木部，这是错误的。现在的人不再使用，也没有辨析它的人，所以只是附记在这里罢了。
经验方：治疗尿血不止。取一两郁金捣成粉末，与一握葱白混合，用水一盏，煎至三合，去渣，温服，每天必须服用三次。
经验后方：治疗风痰。郁金一分，藜芦十分，各自研成粉末，混合均匀，每次服用一字量，用温浆水一盏，先用少量浆水调服，剩下的用水漱口后全部吞服。随后进食以压制药力。孙用和治疗阳毒入胃，下血频繁，疼痛难以忍受。取五个大的郁金，一皂荚子大小的牛黄，分别细研，两味药共同制成散剂。每次服用时，用醋浆水一盏，同煎三沸，温服。
《丹房镜源》说：灰可用于结砂子。《说文》说：是芳草。十叶为一贯，一百二十贯捣碎煮制成为郁。从臼、门、缶、鬯，是其装饰，一说为郁鬯，百草之花。远方郁人所贡奉的芳草。合酿用来降神。《周礼》郁人，凡是祭祀的裸礼，使用郁鬯。
Curcuma Tuber (Yujin)
Pungent, bitter, cold, non-toxic. It primarily treats blood accumulation (blood stasis), directs qi downward, promotes tissue regeneration, stops bleeding, breaks down bad blood (stagnant blood), and treats strangury with blood (dysuria with hematuria), hematuria, and metal wounds (traumatic injuries caused by sharp objects).
The *Tang Bencao* commentary states: The foliage of this herb resembles that of Curcuma longa (Jianghuang), the flowers are white with a reddish hue, it sprouts from the stem heart in late autumn, produces no seeds, and the roots are yellow-red. Harvest the lateral tuberous roots, remove the skin, and dry them over fire. It grows in Shu region and the Western Regions. Equine veterinarians use it to break blood while also providing tonification; Hu people call it "Ma". Those from Lingnan have fruits resembling small cardamom, which are inedible.
(Attached from *Tang Bencao*) Minister Yuxi et al. carefully examined the *Yaoxing Lun*, stating: Curcuma Tuber can be used alone. It treats heart pain caused by retained blood and qi in women, and the aggregation of cold qi. It should be taken warm after grinding with vinegar. It is also used as an equine medicine to treat distension and pain.
The *Tujing Bencao* states: Regarding Curcuma Tuber, the *Shennong Bencao Jing* does not record its place of origin. Su Gong stated: It grows in Shu and the Western Regions, where Hu people mainly call it "Ma". Currently, it is also found in Guangnan and various commanderies in Jiangxi, though those from Shu are superior. It begins to grow in early April; the foliage resembles Curcuma longa, flowers are white with a reddish hue, sprouts from the stem heart in late autumn, and bears no fruit. The roots are yellow-red; harvest the lateral tuberous roots, remove the skin, and dry over fire. It was rarely used in ancient prescriptions but is frequently used in modern pediatric formulas and by equine veterinarians. According to Xu Shen's *Shuowen Jiezi*: "Yu" refers to fragrant grass. Ten leaves constitute one bundle; one hundred and twenty bundles are pounded and boiled to make Yu. Yu refers to the present-day Yulin Commandery. In the Wood category, middle grade, there is Tulip (Yujin Xiang), said to originate from Daqin (Rome). It blooms in February and March, resembling Carthamus tinctorius (Honglan), and its flower is the spice. Chen Shi stated: It is the essence of all herbs. Since it is called the essence of herbs, it must be a grass type. To name it the same yet place it in the Wood category is incorrect. People no longer use it, and no one distinguishes it, so it is merely attached here.
Empirical Prescription: For intractable hematuria. Take one liang of Curcuma Tuber, pound into powder, mix with one handful of scallion whites. Add one cup of water, decoct until three he remain, strain, and take warm. Must be taken three times daily.
Subsequent Empirical Prescription: For wind-phlegm. One fen of Curcuma Tuber, ten fen of Veratrum nigrum (Lilu), each ground into powder, mixed evenly. Take one zi dose per administration. Use one cup of warm sour rice water; first mix with a small amount of sour rice water to swallow, then rinse mouth with remaining liquid and consume entirely. Follow with food to suppress the medicinal force. Sun Yonghe treated Yang toxin entering the stomach, frequent lower bleeding, and unbearable pain. Take five large Curcuma Tubers and a soap-bean-sized amount of Calculus Bovis (Niuhuang), grind separately into fine powder, combine both into a powder. For each dose, add one cup of vinegar-sour rice water, boil together for three boils, and take warm.
*Danfang Jingyuan* states: Ash can be used to form cinnabar grains. *Shuowen* states: It is fragrant grass. Ten leaves make one bundle, one hundred and twenty bundles pounded and boiled to make Yu. From mortar, door, jar, chang wine... it is decoration; alternatively called Yu Chang, the flower of all herbs. Fragrant grass offered by distant Yu people. Mixed and brewed to invoke spirits. *Zhou Li* Yu Ren: For all sacrificial guo rituals, Yu Chang is used.
*Yanyi* states: Curcuma Tuber has no fragrance. Currently, people use it to dye women's clothing, resulting in the most vivid color, but it cannot withstand sun exposure. Dyed garments have only a faint scent of Curcuma Tuber.
