Donguibogam 東醫寶鑑

治毒熱口瘡. 乾薑ㆍ黃連 等分爲末, 敷瘡上, 初若不堪, 應手卽愈. 《得效》

Translation

Treats toxic heat mouth sores. Dried ginger and coptis in equal parts, powdered and applied to the sore; at first it seems unbearable, but it heals as soon as the hand is laid on. — Seui Deukhyobang 得效 (Donguibogam · Guseol)

Clinical commentary 臨床

初若不堪 — at first it seems unbearable. The Deukhyo says outright that it stings, which is honest and probably why it adds the promise in the next clause. — Eui Young (Justin) Chung, L.Ac., Dipl. O.M.
