The origin of ointment
Plaster has a long history. From the Han and Tang Dynasties, there are records about ointment in Huangdi Neijing, such as horse ointment, which is mainly used for external use. According to Zhang Zhongjing's synopsis of the golden chamber in the Eastern Han Dynasty, aconite ointment and polyporus ointment were the earliest records of oral ointment. Some decoctions in Qian Jin Fang in Tang Dynasty are basically the same as those in modern ointment, such as the decoction of perilla, Wang Dao's Secret Recipe of Six Decoction Outside Taiwan and so on.
