Translation

Treats sudden throat closure and wrapping throat wind, with the throat stopped up, food and drink not going down, the jaw clenched tight and the patient not knowing anyone. Gleditsia 7 don; realgar 2 don; raw alum and veratrum 1 don each; seven scorpion tails. Powder them and blow 1 ja at a time up the nose to bring up the phlegm. — Uihak Immun 入門 (Donguibogam · Inhu)

Clinical commentary 臨床

纏喉風 — wrapping throat wind, where the swelling runs round the neck. It is the chapter's gravest picture and 5.9 says it kills within a day. **Contains veratrum, realgar and scorpion, all severely toxic. This must not be prepared.** — Eui Young (Justin) Chung, L.Ac., Dipl. O.M.
