Translation

Treats the same as above. Take the powder of Sudden Smile Powder, mix with vinegar and reduce to a paste, and make pills the size of a cherry; take two at a time stirred into half a cup each of child's urine and warm wine. — Buin Daejeon Yangbang 良方 (Donguibogam · Buin)

Clinical commentary 臨床

Silso-san made into a vinegar paste and given in child's urine and wine — the same two medicinals the Uterus chapter uses at 13.16.1, where the source notes that flying squirrel faeces both moves blood and stanches it. Child's urine as the vehicle runs through the whole of 1.29. It was held to lead downward and to dissolve stagnant blood, and this section uses it more than any other in the book. — Eui Young (Justin) Chung, L.Ac., Dipl. O.M.
