According to "Compendium of Materia Medica": It is used to treat restlessness in the limbs, intermittent intense heat in the abdomen, excessive thirst and desire to walk, convulsions in children, and residual pain after childbirth in women.

According to "Origins of the Materia Medica": White Fresh Skin enters the lung meridian, so it can dispel wind, enters the small intestine meridian, so it can dispel dampness. Once wind and dampness are eliminated, the blood and qi can circulate freely and the heat will also be removed. It is used to treat all kinds of scabies, evil wind, scabies, yangmei (a type of skin disease), and various hot and toxic sores.

Various Theories:

After postpartum stroke is accompanied by dampness and remains unresolved, the blood and qi cannot circulate freely, so the muscles and skin become stiff, and the itching and pain are difficult to alleviate. White Fresh Skin dispels wind and dampness to regulate the skin, while Sichuan Duhuo promotes the flow of meridian qi to eliminate stubborn pain. By steaming the wine, the wind and dampness can be dispersed, the nourishing blood can be infused, and the skin can be moisturized. Therefore, there will be no stubborn pain.
