Donguibogam 東醫寶鑑

治吹乳妬乳. 連根葱白搗爛, 鋪患處, 上用瓦盆盛灰火, 盖葱上, 一時蒸熱出汗卽愈. 《醫鑑》

Translation

Treats blown breast and jealous milk. Scallion white with the roots, pounded to a pulp and spread on the affected place; set an earthenware bowl of hot ash over the scallion, and when after a while it steams hot and the sweat comes, it heals. — Gogeum Uigam 醫鑑 (Donguibogam · Yu)

Clinical commentary 臨床

A poultice under a bowl of embers — moist heat held on the breast until it sweats. It is what a hot compress does, and of everything in 12.7 it is the method a patient could repeat. — Eui Young (Justin) Chung, L.Ac., Dipl. O.M.
