Boils and folliculitis are hereditary conditions passed down through generations.

Boils and folliculitis are both ancestral legacies! Enthusiastic netizen (Aircraft Carrier, QQ 1157660240): Mr. Hu Bing, hello! I came across your noble deeds of practicing medicine to help others and your compassionate spirit online, which are truly admirable. It's a pity that there are so few people like you nowadays. I wish you a long life and eternal youth. I am a descendant of a fifth-generation traditional Chinese medicine family, now 76 years old. Our ancestral medical skills are extraordinary and highly praised in the local community. My great-grandfather once saved a patient who had already been placed in a coffin. Due to the influence of old traditions, our family's medical knowledge is passed down to only one person per generation and is never shared outside the family. Unfortunately, my father passed away early, and I was too young to take over, resulting in the loss of this advanced medical knowledge. However, I have always been very interested in medicine. Since the 1970s, I have enjoyed collecting folk remedies and have been providing free medical services for decades, successfully treating many patients, including some difficult cases. For example, a female colleague with diabetes had a severe boil on her buttocks that wouldn't heal for two years. I used a simple remedy, and after just three applications, she was cured. Another male colleague suffered from folliculitis for over three months and had no success with multiple hospitals in the city. I treated him with a single remedy, and he was cured after just one application. Inspired by your work, I am sharing these two effective remedies with you to help more patients. The remedies are as follows: For boils: Grind cuttlefish bone into powder and mix it with sesame oil. Apply to the affected area three times for a cure. For folliculitis: Take two taels of nightshade stems and leaves, one bowl of sour porridge (left overnight to sour), and one tael of brown sugar. Mash them together, strain through gauze, drink the juice, and apply the residue to the affected area. One to three applications will cure it. I hope these remedies can benefit patients!
