"Dr. Lu, why do I feel a little hot in my chest?"

"Is it hot or warm?"

"Hmm~ It's warm and quite comfortable."

"Okay, that's it for today's acupuncture treatment. I'll prescribe another medicine for you."

Warmth means that it is not evil heat, so this tonic and diarrhea have achieved the goal.

Xinyang turned around, and the next step was to use medicine to replenish Wei Jun's qi and blood.

Even though Wei Jun is now fat and you think he doesn't need supplements, many people's fatness is actually due to puffiness, such as overwork, and people will become overworked and obese.

Just like the original parts of your body can only support you to operate normally at 140, but when you reach 1800 or 200, the parts will be overloaded. Over time, these parts will be seriously worn out, and virtual fatigue will naturally occur.

Performance.

This time, Lu Jiu did not prescribe Longdan Xiegan Decoction to Wei Jun, but Xiaoyao Powder.

The main function of Longgan Xiegan Decoction is to clear away heat and dampness, soothe the liver and unblock collaterals, while the function of Xiaoyao Powder is to soothe the liver and relieve stagnation, nourish the blood and strengthen the spleen.

Obviously, the latter is more suitable for the symptoms displayed by Wei Jun.

Arriving at the medicine cabinet, Lu Jiu began to grab medicine.

Licorice root, Angelica sinensis, Poria cocos, white peony root, Atractylodes macrocephala, Bupleurum root, ginger, mint.

In this prescription, Bupleurum is the monarch medicine, which can soothe the liver and relieve stagnation, and relieve the internal and external effects. White peony root and Angelica sinensis are the ministerial medicines. They can nourish blood, soften the liver and regulate Qi when combined with Bupleurum. Atractylodes, Poria, Zhigancao, and mint

, ginger is used as an adjuvant, and its main function is to strengthen the body.

In the process of dispelling evil with drugs, it is also very easy to damage the righteousness, just like taking medicine will deplete yang, and this righteousness is actually the qi of our spleen and stomach. Liver qi can overpower the spleen earth. If the liver is not good, the spleen cannot escape.

, so while treating the liver, the spleen must be strengthened.

Atractylodes macrocephala, poria cocos and zhi licorice are the three herbs in Sijunzi decoction. This prescription is a classic spleen-strengthening prescription. Use these three herbs as Xiaoyao powder to strengthen the spleen, remove dampness, protect qi, and harmonize the stomach.

, finally use mint and ginger as two medicinal herbs to release lung qi and disperse stagnation of liver qi.

After grabbing the medicine, Lu Jiu handed it to Wei Jun.

"This is medicine. Take it. After you go back and drink it, record your body's reaction, such as how you sleep at night, whether the pain in your body is relieved, whether you can pass stool easily, etc. Record it every day.

, it can be used as a piece of data for you to recover slowly in the future." Lu Jiu said.

In fact, Chinese medicine observes the human body very carefully, especially the state of health and illness, and has very strict standards at the macro level.

To put it simply, Chinese medicine divides people's states into three levels. The first level is health, which is the state of not getting sick. At this time, our body is in a state of balance between yin and yang, and we can eat, sleep, and move without any symptoms.

When an uncomfortable situation occurs, there will be no problem with the functioning of the internal organs at this time.

This second level means having symptoms, maybe coughing, not being able to sleep, pimples on the face, pain in the body, discomfort anywhere, in any case, problems that are usually not noticeable, start to show up at this time, this is the body

I am telling you that the functions of the internal organs are beginning to have problems.

In traditional Chinese medicine, it is called an imbalance of yin and yang. The cause of this symptom may be your own emotions, what you eat, or the weather. At this level, most people only have deficiency symptoms, and some have deficiency symptoms.

Instruments can detect, for example, fever caused by weak Wei Qi. There are also some deficiency symptoms that cannot be detected, such as spleen deficiency and diarrhea. Oh, by the way, this level is also called sub-health.

When we have symptoms, if our physical fitness is relatively good, then these problems will slowly disappear over time. However, some symptoms are more stubborn. If they are left unattended, or the treatment is not thorough, then it will

It begins to slowly evolve to the third level, which is the so-called illness. At this time, the deficiency symptoms usually persist for a long time and turn into real symptoms, such as cold and dampness blocking blood vessels, stones, polyps, and cancer, etc.

Modern medicine calls it organic disease. At this stage, instruments can basically detect it.

Of course, it is not impossible for traditional Chinese medicine to treat a disease, but compared to the symptomatic stage, after getting the disease, especially for some difficult real diseases, there is really no way that low-level Chinese medicine can help.

So this is how Chinese medicine does not treat the existing disease but treats the disease before it occurs. If you have symptoms, you can go to a Chinese medicine doctor. Even if you don’t meet some top Chinese medicine doctors, you can still get good curative effects. But once you get to the stage of actual disease, you have to find a qualified doctor.

Only very high-level Chinese medicine practitioners will do. It will depend on their character and luck. After all, there are not many Chinese medicine doctors in the country who can treat real diseases. There are even fewer Chinese medicine doctors who can treat malignant real diseases such as tumors and cancers.

.

Through such macro-health standards, traditional Chinese medicine can judge whether the treatment direction is correct based on the patient's feelings. As long as the patient is uncomfortable at the beginning and can eat, drink, walk, and sleep later, and does not feel any discomfort in the body, the treatment will be done.

It means the treatment is over.

As for the patient's blood lipids, blood pressure, or whether his blood sugar is high or low, it doesn't matter, because no matter how accurate the data is, it cannot replace each patient's own "feeling."

"Doctor Lu, should you take this medicine after meals?" Li Xiaxia asked.

"Oh, I almost forgot to mention that this medicine should be taken before meals." Lu Jiu said.

"Shen Nong's Materia Medica" records, "If the disease is above the chest and diaphragm, you should eat first and then take medicine; if the disease is below the heart and belly, take medicine first and then eat; if the disease is in the blood vessels of the limbs, you should eat on an empty stomach; if the disease is in the bone marrow, you should take medicine on an empty stomach.

Full and in the night.”

This is actually the way the ancients figured out how to take medicine based on the changes in heaven and earth and the functions of the five internal organs of the human body.

In the morning, when Yang Qi is rising, there is no food in the stomach and duodenum, and there is no obstruction of food intake. The medicine can quickly enter the intestines and give full play to its efficacy. This is the case for those whose disease is in the blood vessels of the limbs. They should take it on an empty stomach in the morning to replenish Yang.

Prescriptions for replenishing qi, clearing meridians, dispersing cold, promoting qi and blood, etc., should be taken in the morning or in the morning, so that when the weather is strong and yang is strong, the body's yang qi will support yang and suppress yin, and eliminate disease and pathogenic factors.

If the disease is below the chest and abdomen, such as stomach, spleen, liver, kidney and other internal organs diseases, it should be taken before meals to facilitate the digestion and absorption of the medicine.

Above the chest and diaphragm are the upper burner heart and lungs. If you take medicine after a meal, the food qi will be in the middle burner, blocking the medicine qi in the upper burner. It will also carry the medicine qi up to the heart, lungs and travel throughout the body to exert its effects. Like some external medicines used to treat colds and coughs, it can reduce phlegm.

Cough medicines, including medicines for headaches and chest pain, are suitable to be taken after meals.

If the disease is in the bone marrow, it should be full and at night. That is to say, if the disease is deep or lingering for a long time, penetrating into the bone marrow or damaging the essence, Qi and spirit, with the help of natural Qi mechanisms, the Qi will converge at night, which is conducive to the medicine reaching the disease site.

If you just take medicine with three meals a day, the medicine will not be able to reach a specific place at a specific time, and its efficacy will be somewhat compromised.

Lu Jiu had forgotten about this before, but Li Xiaxia's question reminded Lu Jiu that when giving patients medicine in the future, they must tell him the specific time.

"Oh, Doctor Lu, we can drink this medicine after we get back," Li Xiaxia said.

"Yeah." Lu Jiu said.

"Doctor Lu, how much does it cost?" Li Xiaxia said.

"The consultation fee is fifty yuan, the acupuncture is thirty yuan, and the prescription is ninety-three yuan, a total of eighty-nine three yuan." Lu Jiu said.

Less than a hundred?

Li Xiaxia and Li Xiaxia were slightly stunned.
