**Eggs Cooked in Liquor, Rheumatism Takes a Backseat!** **Enthusiastic Netizen (Dancing Shadow Phoenix, QQ: 1665592964):** Hello, Teacher Hu Bing, I’ve been following your space for a while, and many of your remedies are excellent. I’ve suffered from rheumatism for five years, visiting hospitals of all sizes, and it’s been unbearable. Summer is somewhat manageable, but spring and winter are the hardest, with excruciating pain. Later, my mother helped me find a remedy: cooking eggs with liquor. It’s said that many people in my hometown have been cured using this method. **Specific Method:** Wash and dry three red-shelled eggs, place them in a ceramic dish, and pour in Erguotou liquor (preferably with an alcohol content above 55%). Heat the bottom of the dish for a while, then ignite the liquor and let the flame burn out on its own. Afterward, eat the eggs along with the remaining liquor, cover yourself with a blanket to induce sweating—the more sweat, the better. It’s recommended to do this before bedtime for the best effect. For mild cases, 1-2 treatments are sufficient, while severe cases may take no more than half a month to cure. The first time I tried it, I didn’t use enough liquor, so the flame burned out before the eggs were fully cooked. Later, I added more liquor. After two treatments, the pain significantly subsided. I remember eating it intermittently for about a week, and the pain never returned. It’s inexpensive and more effective than the medications from big hospitals. I recommend this remedy to fellow patients and hope everyone recovers soon! **Contributor:** Teacher Liu Guiyun
