Translation

Treats intestinal flux with bleeding in a gush, the blood seeping out with force and shooting far and scattering on all sides like a sieve, with great pain in the abdomen. White peony 1 don 5 pun; astragalus and licorice (mix-fried) 1 don each; tangerine peel and cimicifuga 7 pun each; fresh rehmannia, tree peony bark and raw licorice 5 pun each; angelica, cooked rehmannia, atractylodes lancea, gentiana macrophylla and cinnamon 3 pun each. Cut up, make one packet, decoct in water and take on an empty stomach. — Dongwon 東垣 (Donguibogam · Huieum)

Clinical commentary 臨床

四散如篩 — scattering on all sides like water through a sieve. A bright arterial bleed sprayed into the pan, described exactly, and Dongwon raises the yang rather than stopping the blood because he reads it as the qi failing to hold. — Eui Young (Justin) Chung, L.Ac., Dipl. O.M.
