Translation

Treats long-standing piles and fistulous piles with pus and blood below; a vacuous patient taking it finds it divinely wonderful, and it is the sagely medicine for piles. Atractylodes lancea (rice-water steeped) 1 geun; cooked rehmannia 1 geun; schisandra 8 nyang; dried ginger <span class='sochu'>1 nyang in autumn and winter, 7 don in spring, 5 don in summer</span>. Powder them, bind with jujube flesh into pills the size of a firmiana seed, and take a hundred on an empty stomach with rice water or warm wine. — Bomyeongjip 保命 (Donguibogam · Hueum)

Clinical commentary 臨床

Four medicinals, with only the ginger changing by season. For the patient the long bleeding has worn out, and the chapter sets it against everything else in it: no cooling, no caustic, nothing applied. — Eui Young (Justin) Chung, L.Ac., Dipl. O.M.
