🎧  Listen to Introduction

Wu's furuncle therapy is a traditional medicine project in the fifth batch of representative projects of Suzhou's municipal intangible cultural heritage. Wu's furuncle therapy was founded during the Qianlong and Jiaqing periods of the Qing Dynasty. According to the sixth volume of "Wu County Literature and History Materials", "Wu's furuncle clinic in Shantang Street, Mudu Town, Wu County, specializes in treating furuncles, with remarkable curative effects, and is a folk specialist doctor who has long been famous in Jiangnan." Wu Jinxiu (1868-1939), the fourth-generation inheritor of Wu's furuncle therapy, opened a medical practice after his mother-in-law passed away, specializing in treating furuncles for 55 years. Many patients in the local area and surrounding areas come to seek treatment, and it can be said that it is well-known. So far, Wu's furuncle therapy has been passed down to the fifth generation of Dr. Wu Zhiyun. She began to learn medicine from her mother-in-law Wu Jinxiu at the age of 17. After Wu Jinxiu passed away, Wu Zhiyun inherited her ancestral business. Now 73 years old, he has been treating furuncles for more than half a century. At present, Wu's furuncle clinic is licensed by Wu Zhiyun's son Li Yongxi. Li Yongxi's son Li Lu and grandson Li Xiao help him manage the clinic affairs. Li Yongxi and Sun Lianzhen not only inherited the essence of the previous generation, but also innovated and created new highlights in Wu's furunculosis. Furuncle is an acute infectious disease that develops quickly and is more dangerous. It often occurs on the face, hands and feet. If not treated properly, those on the face can easily cause yellowing and endanger life, and those on the hands and feet can damage tendons and bones and affect function. Wu's furunculosis department has been committed to the treatment of skin diseases with traditional Chinese medicine for hundreds of years. It has its own unique treatment methods and unique medicines in the treatment of furunculosis with traditional Chinese medicine. Wu's furunculosis treatment, through combining theory with practice, has developed furunculosis treatment skills based on the "four diagnoses" of traditional Chinese medicine and guided by the basic theories of traditional Chinese medicine. After years of experience accumulation, corresponding treatment methods have been developed for a series of difficult and complicated diseases in traditional Chinese medicine dermatology, such as various types of furuncles, unidentified swellings, chronic sores, etc. Treatment methods and steps for furuncle: 1. Observation, 2. Questioning, 3. Pulse diagnosis, 4. Formula, 5. Prescription, 6. Making medicine twist. Wu's furuncle treatment uses ointment and medicine twist for local medication for furuncle swelling and ulcer. It has few side effects, little irritation to the skin, is simple and easy to use, and patients can easily master its use. For some patients with serious conditions, the method of using medicine twist to penetrate into the wound is adopted. That is, the medicine twist carries the corresponding medicine into the wound, so as to achieve the effect of removing rot and regenerating new, removing toxins and regenerating muscles.
