Translation

Treats bloody urine. Amber finely powdered, 2 don taken stirred into a decoction of juncus and mint. — Uihak Immun 入門 (Donguibogam · Hyeol)

Clinical commentary 臨床

Amber for the water passages and juncus to guide it there — the Women chapter's Mangu-san at 1.28.4 is the same pair for painful urination in pregnancy. Amber is held to free the passage and stanch at once. — Eui Young (Justin) Chung, L.Ac., Dipl. O.M.
