Donguibogam 東醫寶鑑
治耳聾. 好活磁石 二塊, 剉如棗核大, 搽麝香少許於磁石尖上, 塞兩耳竅中, 口內含生鐵一塊, 候一時, 兩耳氣透颯颯有聲爲度. 勤用三五次卽愈. 《醫鑑》
Translation
Treats deafness. Two pieces of good live loadstone cut to the size of a jujube stone, with a little musk rubbed on the tip of each, packed into the two ear openings, and a piece of raw iron held in the mouth. Wait an hour, and it is done when the qi penetrates both ears with a rushing sound. Used diligently three to five times it heals. — Gogeum Uigam 醫鑑 (Donguibogam · I)
