Donguibogam 東醫寶鑑
治痔瘡腫脹作熱如火. 蝸牛 一箇, 入片腦ㆍ麝香 各少許, 同入瓦器內盛頓半日, 自化成水, 取塗痔上, 痛止腫消立愈. 《得效》
Translation
Treats a pile sore swollen and distended and hot as fire. One snail with a little borneol and musk, put together in an earthen vessel and left half a day, when it dissolves of itself into a liquid; take it and paint it on the piles, and the pain stops and the swelling goes down. — Seui Deukhyobang 得效 (Donguibogam · Hueum)
