Translation

Treats blown breast: taken at the first sign it brings the milk down, frees the blood vessels and lets it disperse of itself. Sparrow droppings, the straight ones, powdered; take 2 don at a time stirred into warm wine. — Gogeum Uigam 醫鑑 (Donguibogam · Yu)

Clinical commentary 臨床

白丁香 is sparrow droppings, chosen by shape — 直者, the straight ones. The chapter's smallest formula, and the whole of its value is in the timing: 初覺服此, take it the moment it is felt. — Eui Young (Justin) Chung, L.Ac., Dipl. O.M.
