bubble_chart Preparation and Dosage
Take the three ingredients, add 250 ml of water, and store them in a small porcelain jar. Simmer over low heat until the liquid is completely evaporated. Then, take the thread and let it dry in the shade. For conditions such as hemorrhoids or goiters with a large top and small base, use one thread, or two for larger cases. Tie a double knot around the affected area, leaving the ends of the thread loose. Gradually tighten the thread daily until the affected area turns purple-black and feels cold to the touch. For mild cases, this will take seven days; for severe cases, fifteen days. After this period, the affected tissue will naturally wither and fall off. Applying Yuebai Zhenzhu San (Moonlight Pearl Powder) to the wound is highly effective for healing.
