浮海石
Fu Hai Shi is pumice.
Fu = to float
Hai = ocean
Shi = stone
"float on the sea stone"
If you swallow pumice, it's salty coldness will travel to your lungs. Salty transforms clumps, softens hardness, dissipates phlegm nodules, an helps with severe food stagnation. Pumice is good at this even on the outside of the body, when we use it to scrape off all those clumps off our toes.
Also, because it is salty and is associated with the ocean, it is relatively easy to remember that Fu Hai Shi also promotes urination, particularly for hot/stony painful UTIs and Kidney stones. Hair of the dog, I guess.
Emphysema, old stagnant hot phlegm.
Not for deficient coughs.
