Excerpted from Bensky:  Chinese Herbal Medicine Materia Medica, 3rd ed.

  • Cools the blood and stops bleeding:  especially for bleeding in the lower burner due to damp-heat with such symptoms as blood in the stool, bleeding hemorrhoids, bloody dysenteric disorders, and excessive uterine bleeding.  Also used for vomiting blood and nosebleed.*
  • Clears heat and generates flesh:  applied topically for sores, ulcers, and injuries from burns.  It both reduces the oozing by holding in the fluids, and promotes the generation of new flesh.  Often used for burns.*
