6. Ἕτερος τρόπος ἰήσιος αἱμοῤῥοΐδων· καυστῆρα ποιήσασθαι, οἷον καλαμίσκον φραγμίτην· σιδήριον δὲ ἐναρμόσαι καλῶς ἁρμόζον· ἔπειτα τὸν αὐλίσκον ἐνθεὶς ἐς τὴν ἕδρην, διαφαῖνον τὸ σιδήριον καθιέναι, καὶ πυκνὰ ἐξαιρέειν, ἵνα μᾶλλον ἀνέχηται θερμαινόμενος· καὶ οὔτε ἕλκος ἕξει ὑπὸ τῆς θερμασίης, ὑγιέα τε ξηρανθέντα τὰ φλέβια.
