bubble_chart Preparation and Dosage

First, fry 5,000 grams of rapeseed oil with Arctium lappa and Impatiens balsamina until they are withered, then remove the dregs. The next day, except for the 4 ingredients, fry the remaining herbs in the oil until withered, remove the dregs, and filter until clean. After the oil has cooled overnight, weigh it accurately, and for every 500 grams of oil, add 210 grams of stir-fried yellow lead. Stir and boil until a drop of water forms a pearl and does not stick to the fingers, then remove from heat and let it cool slightly. Grind the remaining ingredients into a fine powder and mix into the oil. After half a month, heat until melted, spread on cloth, and apply to the affected area.
