Treatment of Neck Swelling – June 2, 1978

Li Yilan from Lan Chemical suffers from chronic pancreatitis and has been taking the compound Si Ni San prescribed by me, with her condition improving. One day, Li came for a consultation, saying that for the past week she had experienced extremely severe swelling and pain in her neck, accompanied by restlessness. I then added 15g of summer wilt herb and 6g of pinellia to the previous formula, and after four doses the neck swelling completely disappeared. Compound Si Ni San: bupleurum 15g, citrus aurantium 6g, white peony 9g, licorice 6g, chuanxiong 6g, fragrant root 6g, Sichuan pepper 6g, dried ginger 6g, codonopsis 12g.
