Accidentally sprained? We've got the perfect remedy!

**Translation:** **Enthusiastic Netizen (Username: Ai Jiankang, QQ: 514331310):** Hello, Teacher Hu. I often follow your updates. Today, I’d like to share a remedy for sprains: 80 grams of Gardenia, 12 grams of Angelica Dahurica, 15 grams of Safflower, 12 grams of Peach Kernel, 10 grams of Frankincense, 10 grams of Myrrh, and 9 grams of Ground Beetle. Grind these ingredients into a fine powder (the ratio of Gardenia to the other herbs should be 2:1). Take 2-3 sections of scallion stalks and mash them together with the powder to form a paste. Add a small amount of vinegar to mix into a thick paste. Spread the paste onto a gauze, wrap it around the affected area, cover it with plastic wrap, and secure it with a bandage. The treatment is highly effective. For mild cases, apply once; for severe cases, apply 4-5 times. Each application should last 24-48 hours before removal. After 5-10 hours, the swelling and bruising will significantly subside. Apply the paste once more, and the injury will heal completely. I’ve used this on a colleague, and it worked wonders—the bruise was gone by the next day! Contributor: Teacher Jiang.
