Translation
Treats sores of mouth and tongue, a stiff tongue, a swollen jaw and a closed throat. Cattail pollen, indigo, borax, saltpetre and licorice in equal parts, powdered; rub it into the mouth with the finger and swallow the juice. — Seui Deukhyobang 得效 (Donguibogam · Guseol)
Clinical commentary 臨床
喉閉 — a closed throat, meaning one swollen enough to obstruct. This is a mouth powder being asked to treat something dangerous, and the Throat chapter's own formulas are the place to go for it. — Eui Young (Justin) Chung, L.Ac., Dipl. O.M.
