Title
Mid C20 Chinese medical illustration in trad. style: Smallpox
Description
Youke san zhong(Three Books of Paediatrics) is a mid 20th century composite edition of three classics of paediatrics:Zengbu douzhen yusui jinjing lu(The Gold And Chalcedony Mirror of Pox Diseases, Expanded Edition) by Weng Zhongren (Ming period, 1368-1644),Youke tiejing(Iron Mirror of Paediatrics) by Xia Ding (Qing period, 1644-1911), andXiao'er tuina guangyi(Overview of Paediatric tuina Massage) by Xiong Yingxiong (Qing period). A small number of illustrations are included in a supplement.This illustration of 'Belly Vescicles' pox, in traditional ink and brush style, comes fromThe Gold And Chalcedony Mirror of Pox Diseases.The text states: Belly Vescicles (nang fu) refers to a pox (dou) where the rash resembles a cluster of little bags on the front of the abdomen. As the abdomen is in close proximity to the five viscera, in case of any pathological change, posions can immediately penetrate into the interior of the body. This should be treated Muscle Freeing and Poison Expelling powder (songji tongdu san) in conjunction with Poison Dissolving Elixir (huadu dan) and Pig's tail grease. Cochineal ointment should be applied externally.
