【Preparation Method】

【Efficacy and Indications】
Warm yang and dispel stasis. Used for the treatment and prevention of frostbite.
【Dosage】
2-4 times daily, 8-10 milliliters each time.
【Do not use hot water to soak frostbite】
The first aid for local frostbite is to gradually immerse the affected area in warm water that is the same temperature as the body temperature. If only the hand is frostbitten, you can warm it up by placing it under your armpit.
Do not immerse the affected area directly in hot water or use fire to heat the affected area, as this will worsen the frostbite. Massage can cause infection, so it is best not to do it. Do not vigorously massage with a towel, as it can cause the wound to break down and delay healing.
Boil water with eggplant stems or chili stems and soak the easily frostbitten areas, or apply ginger to the affected skin, which has a preventive effect on frostbite.
