脑上诸阳所会穴，近脑则髓出；颈项上近咽喉，药饵、饮食之所通，一有所碍，两不能
进；肾俞上与肾相抵，命之所系，穴即透空，又不可着艾。三处有疽，并为难治。
作劳叫怒，嗜欲，饮食如干湿面、炙 、淹藏、冷酒、生冷、滞腻、鱼、羊并不可食。性热者
发热，冷者损脾、肾，毒者发病，皆当戒之。病者之房，深戒有腋气人并有孕妇人、月经人入
房。合药亦忌此等人见之，又忌鸡、犬、猫儿见之。
已上戒忌，安后半载间，血气未定，犹定
（一作当）谨戒，不废药饵，方能保全。
疽疮之方有验者，载于方书。然有贫乏无钱买药，又有适居僻邑草市，难得药材，只得
服草药、鸬 藤酒，续以麦饭石膏涂敷、神异膏贴之，亦屡用取效。若无麦饭石膏，如田夫
野人，只用神异膏亦可。
麦饭石膏（案∶此方原缺，今从《苏沈良方》补入）
白麦饭食石（色黄白、类麦饭者犹佳。炭火烧赤，醋中浸之十遍，研。白蔹末与石等
分）
鹿角（不用自脱者，须元带脑骨者，截用二三寸。炭火烧至烟尽为度，杵为末。并前二
味）
上并捣细末，取多年米醋，于铫中煎令鱼眼沸，即下前件药末，调如稀锡。以蓖子涂敷
肿上，只当疮头留一指地，勿令合，以出热气。如未脓，当内消；已作头，当撮小。若日久疮
甚，肌肉损烂，筋骨出露，即布上涂药贴之，干即再换，但以鬲中穴，无不瘥。其疮切忌手触，
宜慎之。
头部是诸阳经交汇的穴位，若疽疮发生在靠近脑部的位置，会导致脑髓外溢；颈部和项部靠近咽喉，是药物和饮食通过的通道，一旦受到阻碍，水和食物都无法进入；肾俞穴上方与肾脏相对，是生命所系之处，如果该处穴位被灸透形成空洞，也不可用艾灸。这三处发生疽疮，都属于难以治疗的病症。
过度劳累、大声喊叫或发怒，以及纵欲，都是禁忌。饮食方面，干湿面条、烧烤食品、腌制食品、冷酒、生冷食物、黏滞油腻食物、鱼类、羊肉等都不可食用。性质热的食物会引发发热，性质冷的食物会损伤脾肾，有毒的食物会诱发疾病，这些都应当严格戒除。病人的房间，要严禁有狐臭的人、孕妇以及月经期的女性进入。配制药物时也要忌讳这些人看见，还要忌讳鸡、狗、猫看见。
以上的戒律和禁忌，在病情稳定后的半年内，气血尚未安定，仍然应当谨慎遵守，不间断服药，才能保全性命。
治疗疽疮有效的方剂，记载在医书之中。然而，如果有贫困没钱买药的人，或者恰好居住在偏僻乡镇集市，难以获得药材的人，只能服用草药和鸬鹚藤酒，接着用麦饭石膏涂抹敷贴，再用神异膏贴敷，也屡次取得疗效。如果没有麦饭石膏，像农夫野人那样，只用神异膏也可以。
麦饭石膏（案：此方原本缺失，现在从《苏沈良方》中补入）
白麦饭食石（颜色黄白，像麦饭一样的更好。用炭火烧红，在醋中浸泡十遍，然后研磨。将白蔹粉末与石头粉末等量混合）
鹿角（不使用自然脱落的，必须使用原来带有脑骨的，截取二三寸长。用炭火烧至烟尽为止，捣成粉末。与前两味药一起）
以上药物都捣成细末，取多年的米醋，在铫子中煎至像鱼眼一样沸腾，立即放入前面的药末，调成稀锡般的稠度。用蓖麻子蘸取涂敷在肿胀处，只在疮头留一指宽的地方不要覆盖，以散发热气。如果还没有化脓，应当使其内消；如果已经形成疮头，应当将其撮小。如果日久疮势严重，肌肉腐烂，筋骨外露，就铺上纱布涂药贴敷，干了就再更换，只要用到膻中穴，没有不痊愈的。这种疮切忌用手触摸，应当慎重。
The acupoints on the head are where all Yang meridians converge. If located near the brain, it may lead to the extrusion of brain marrow; the neck and nape are close to the throat, which is the passage for medicine and food intake. If obstructed, neither fluids nor solids can enter; the area above Shenshu (Kidney-Shu, BL23) opposes the Kidneys, which is the root of life. If the acupoint is penetrated by moxibustion forming a cavity, moxibustion must not be applied. Carbuncles occurring in these three locations are all considered difficult to treat.
Overexertion, shouting, anger, and excessive sexual desire are contraindicated. Regarding diet, dry or wet noodles, roasted foods, preserved foods, cold wine, raw and cold foods, sticky and greasy foods, fish, and mutton must not be consumed. Foods with hot properties will induce fever; those with cold properties will damage the Spleen and Kidneys; toxic foods will trigger disease onset. All these must be strictly avoided. In the patient's room, it is strictly forbidden for individuals with axillary odor, pregnant women, and menstruating women to enter. These persons should also be prohibited from witnessing the preparation of medicines, as well as chickens, dogs, and cats.
These prohibitions and taboos must be observed with caution for half a year after the condition stabilizes, while Qi and Blood are not yet settled, and without neglecting medicinal intake, in order to preserve life.
Effective formulas for treating carbuncles are recorded in medical texts. However, for those who are poor and cannot afford medicine, or who happen to reside in remote towns and markets where medicinal materials are hard to obtain, they may only take herbal medicines and Ardea cinerea vine wine, followed by topical application of Maifan Shi Paste and Shen Yi Gao plaster. This method has also frequently proven effective. If Maifan Shi Paste is unavailable, even rural farmers using only Shen Yi Gao plaster can achieve results.
Maifan Shi Paste (Note: This formula was originally missing and has been supplemented from *Su Shen Liang Fang*)
Bai Maifan Shi (White Wheat-Rice-Eating Stone; preferably yellowish-white and resembling wheat rice. Red-hot charcoal fire until red, soak in vinegar ten times, then grind. Mix equal parts of Bai Lian powder and stone powder).
Lu Jiao (Deer Antler; do not use naturally shed ones. Must use those originally attached to the skull bone, cut into 2-3 cun lengths. Burn over charcoal fire until smoke ceases, then pound into powder. Combine with the previous two ingredients.)
Pound all ingredients into fine powder. Take aged rice vinegar, boil in a yin pot until bubbling like fish eyes, then add the aforementioned powders, mixing to a consistency resembling thin tin. Apply with a castor seed brush onto the swelling, leaving an area the size of a finger at the center of the sore uncovered to allow heat to dissipate. If no pus has formed, aim for internal resolution; if a head has formed, aim to reduce its size. If the sore persists for a long time with severe progression, causing muscle rotting and exposure of tendons and bones, apply gauze soaked with the medicine and bandage it. Replace when dry. As long as Danzhong (Conception Vessel 17) is utilized, there is no case that does not heal. Touching the sore with hands is strictly forbidden; exercise caution.
