【Predecessors release medicine】

"Compendium of Materia Medica": Yangqi stone is suitable for people with coldness in the lower part of the body, but it is not suitable for long-term use. Zhang Zihe's "Rumen Shiqin" says: Throat paralysis is rapid, it is a disease of Xianghuo, Xianghuo is dragon fire, it should be driven away with fire. A man was suffering from throat wind swelling, both inside and outside, and medicine could not be taken. He poured cold medicine into his nose, and went down more than ten lines. He burned Yangqi stone and Fulong liver in equal parts, grinded them into very fine powder, and swept them with fresh water a hundred times a day. After three days, the fever began to subside and the swelling began to disappear. This is also the way of treatment.

"Ben Cao Jing Shu" says: "Acanthizite is a holy medicine that supplements Yang Qi and removes the accumulation of cold and blood in the lower Jiao. Therefore, it can cure metrorrhagia, blood disease in the viscera, abdominal pain caused by cold and heat, cold penis head, impotence, and itchy and wet under the genitals. When the true Yang is sufficient, the Qi of the five internal organs is full and the evil and damp Qi is dispersed. Therefore, it can also remove odor and sweat. "Bie Lu" also says that it can eliminate edema, which means that the true fire returns to the origin, which can warm the lower Jiao to fumigate the dregs, transform the essence, and help the spleen and earth to control water.

    Precautions for making Chinese herbal medicine:

    1. The medicine jar must be cleaned

    When decocting Chinese medicine, the medicinal juice is concentrated due to evaporation of water, and a layer of medicinal scale often accumulates at the bottom and around the medicine pot. If the decocted medicine in the medicine pot is often changed, and the accumulated medicinal scale is not wiped off in time, the medicinal scale will dissolve when the new medicine is decocted, interfering with and reducing the efficacy of the medicine, and even delaying the treatment of the disease. Especially if highly toxic medicines or external medicines that cannot be eaten have been decocted before, it may cause poisoning.

    In addition, if the Chinese medicine is not cleaned immediately after each decoction, the scale at the bottom of the medicine pot will become thicker and thicker, and it will easily burn when the medicine is re-decocted, thus losing its efficacy.

    2. Whether to cover the medicine

    Generally speaking, in order to make Chinese medicine boil thoroughly, it is best to cover it. This is especially true for Chinese medicines containing volatile ingredients, such as mint, patchouli, and perilla leaves, and they should be boiled in a short time to prevent the active ingredients from volatilizing. For some expensive medicines, such as ginseng, deer antler, and wolfberry, the active ingredients should be fully released.

    Some Chinese herbal medicines are light in weight and large in size, such as Centella asiatica, Prunella vulgaris, White tongcao, Loofah, Corn hair, etc., so they should not be decocted with the lid on, otherwise they will often overflow from the pot. You can decoct with the lid on and stir at any time.

    3. Fry thoroughly and squeeze dry

    "Decoction thoroughly" means that the active ingredients of the medicine are fully released, which is the basic requirement for decoction. For medicines with tough texture and difficult to release active ingredients at once, only by decoction separately, decocting first, decocting for a long time, etc. can the medicine juice be thickened and the efficacy be fully exerted. Medicines with loose texture and light and fragrant nature do not need to be decocted for too long; but herbs with light texture and large body should be stirred frequently to facilitate decoction.
