There are only a few dozen households in the village. Doctors from the provincial capital have arrived, and the news spreads quickly.
One after another, everyone gathered at the door of the health station. Some people asked Magu when the free clinic would start.
Having rested enough, Yang Ping asked Magu what medicines had been prepared for this free clinic. Magu took out the list and showed it to Yang Ping.
The medicines on this list are very well prepared and cover some common diseases. Director Tian should be involved in the preparation of the medicines.
Yang Ping said: "Everyone is impatient, let's start the free clinic."
Magu asked everyone to line up, and each person was given a number card. Everyone used the number card to see a doctor. Those who didn't get their turn could go for a walk, but they would have to wait for their turn again.
Yang Ping sat behind the table at the free clinic, and Xiao Su sat aside to help measure blood pressure. Each patient who was seeing a doctor had his or her blood pressure measured first. One patient was watching, and the other patient waiting for the doctor had his or her blood pressure measured.
The doctor from the provincial capital is here, come and see if you are sick or not, and ask for reassurance.
Most of the young people can speak Mandarin well, but the old ones cannot speak Mandarin. Magu serves as a translator. When translation is not needed, she helps Xiao Su take her blood pressure.
The habits in their village are a bit different. The young and strong ones look in front, and the old ones look in the back. The reason is that the young and strong ones have to work in a hurry after reading, while the old ones have nothing to do and can watch slowly.
The liaison officer picked up the camera and took pictures from different angles. This was one of the main tasks of his trip.
"Doctor, my neck is always sore and swollen. I feel so tired and uncomfortable. I don't know how to relieve my pain when I sleep at night. What's going on?" The first villager, a middle-aged man in his forties, held card No. 1.
He sat in front of Yang Ping and touched his neck. He looked distressed and seemed to be in deep torment.
He twisted his neck and said, "Look, it still makes a clicking sound!"
Yang Ping stood up, walked from behind the table to the front, and walked around behind him: "Let me check it for you."
Palpate the neck and shoulders with your hands: "The physiological curvature of the cervical spine has become straight, the muscles of the neck and back on both sides are tense, are your hands numb? Are you dizzy?"
"Yes, sometimes my hands get numb and I feel dizzy. Let me think about it. Occasionally, I get dizzy suddenly. It's inexplicable."
No. 1 is very confident in the quality of doctors in provincial capitals.
"You have cervical spondylosis. You usually look down at your phone a lot, right?"
"Yeah, what should I do? Is there no big problem?" No. 1 was very worried.
Yang Ping sat back in his chair: "Don't be nervous. The symptoms are still relatively mild at present and the treatment effect is very good. I will give you some medicine for free. After taking it, the symptoms will be relieved."
Then I took out the prescription and prescribed medicine, mainly non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs and skeletal muscle relaxants. After writing the prescription, I gave it to Magu to distribute the medicine.
"Buy a wavy pillow and use it to support the back of your neck when you sleep at night. This way, you can tilt your head back slightly and restore the natural curvature of your cervical spine. You will feel much more comfortable when sleeping at night." Yang Ping added.
"Pillow the back of your neck?" No. 1 was a little confused.
Yang Ping explained patiently: "Yes, usually the pillow is placed on the back of the head when sleeping. Now the back of the neck should also be pillowed to tilt the head back slightly. Also, play less with mobile phones. Mobile phones are now the number one killer of the cervical spine." p>
"Is it over or not? Others still want to watch it?" the people behind urged.
Number 1 thought about it for a while and decided if there was anything else he wanted to ask. It seemed that he had nothing to ask before he left his seat and gave it to the next person.
"He has neck pain, and I have low back pain. Look, doctor, it hurts here. It usually hurts when I stand up after sitting for a long time. A few days ago, when I bent down to pick up an egg, I twisted my waist. I've been hurting for several days."<
/p>
Man No. 2, about thirty years old.
Yang Ping asked him to turn around, pressed on the lumbosacral area, and then on the course of the sciatic nerve, and said, "Does the leg hurt, does it feel numb?"
"One time, there was numbness and pain here from my butt all the way to my calf." No. 2 gestured with his hand.
"You didn't sprain your waist, you had a lumbar disc herniation." Yang Ping made a rough judgment.
"It's over, lumbar disc herniation?" No. 2 seemed to be suffering from something serious.
"Why is it over?" Yang Ping was very surprised.
"They say this disease cannot be cured and can only be treated by nursing, and it will lead to paralysis in the future!" No. 2 said.
Yang Ping said: "Who said that?"
"Them?"
"Who are they?"
Number 2 was speechless for a moment, yes, who are they?
"Lumbar disc herniation can be treated. Most of them will not be paralyzed. There are only a few cases. As a doctor, I have never encountered anyone who was paralyzed due to lumbar disc herniation." Yang Ping said with certainty.
"Really, doctor, then I'm relieved." No. 2's joy and sorrow changed quickly.
"Your disease is very painful. Just take some medicine. It's the same medicine as the previous medicine. The pathogenesis is similar, but the location of the disease is different." Yang Ping tore off the prescribed prescription.
Number 2 shook his head: "Don't take painkillers! The side effects are huge!"
Yang Ping explained: "Any medicine has side effects, but compared to treating the disease, the side effects of most medicines are insignificant. The negative effect of pain on the human body is probably greater than that of painkillers, not to mention that the medicines I prescribe are not just for pain relief."
The function, more importantly, is anti-inflammatory, reducing your body’s inflammatory response.”
"That's it, let me give it a try." No. 2 figured it out.
Yang Ping told him: "After the pain of your disease is relieved, you must continue to exercise more in the future to avoid recurrence. I will teach you a set of exercise methods, such as lumbar and back muscle exercises. Once the lumbar back muscles are well exercised, the stability of the spine will be improved.
The load on the intervertebral discs will be reduced, and your waist will naturally feel better. If your waist is good, you can do everything well."
Hearing Yang Ping's words, not only No. 2, but also all the men stuck their heads out. Some magical exercise method, it seems that only men understand the secret words, and all men understand it.
The liaison officers who were taking pictures with their cameras all came closer.
"Is there a mat?" Yang Ping asked Magu.
Magu told her husband: "Go and bring out the mattress."
Magu's husband went to the house and brought out a mattress, a simple camp mattress.
"You lie down, it's very simple, an arch bridge, a flying swallow, both exercise the lower back muscles. Lie down, bend your legs, yes, lift your waist and buttocks, slow down, lift slowly, hold on,
Hold on for a while, then slowly put it down. Continue to exercise like this every day, starting from dozens to hundreds. Then lie down, yes, put your hands on both sides, lift your head, chest and legs, use your abdomen as support, and lift both heads.
Stay straight, hold on, and then slowly let go."

"So simple?" No. 2 didn't believe it.
Yang Ping said: "Everyone doesn't pay attention to simple, free things, and think they are useless. They only think of injections and medicine."
"I understand, let's start practicing today." No. 2 is very confident.
What the provincial doctor said seriously will not be false.
No. 3, a young man in his twenties, limped over.
"Why are you feeling uncomfortable?" Yang Ping asked.
"Doctor, I want to see if there is any way to cure my leg so that I won't be lame when I walk?" No. 3 swung one leg out, lowered his head and rolled up his pants.
Everyone laughed.
"What's wrong with your legs?"
"When I was a kid, I fell from a tree and broke my leg. I didn't care. I have been limping ever since. You see, this leg is a little crooked and a little short."
Yang Ping stood up and examined him, measuring the lines and lengths of both lower limbs.
No. 3 asked worriedly: "Can it be cured? Nowadays, men can be transformed into women. Isn't it easier for me than that?"
"Don't waste your time. If you have nothing else to do, just let the people behind you look at it. The doctor is busy and is talking nonsense to you."
Some people are dissatisfied and feel that this guy is deliberately making things difficult for other doctors.
"Yeah, don't make trouble if it's okay, everyone is waiting."
Some people are anxious and keep urging.
"It can be cured, and the chances of returning to normal are very high." Yang Ping leaned on his chair and took a sip of water.
The crowd was in an uproar. Can this be cured?
"Really?" Originally, the young man just asked without any hope. Who knew the doctor said it could be treated? This was beyond his wildest dreams.
"Don't play tricks on me, doctor." The young man smiled bitterly.
Yang Ping said: "You should have fractured the tibia of your lower leg before, and then the malformation healed, causing this side to be too short. You can undergo surgery to correct it and return to normal walking."
The young man was a little dizzy: "How - how - orthopedic surgery?"
"Lengthen the short leg until it is the same as the normal one." Yang Ping said naturally.
It can still be like this, medical skills are really advanced now.
The young man was excited: "Would it be convenient to leave a phone number? I will go to the provincial capital to find you. Really, I want to treat this leg properly."
Yang Ping took out a piece of paper and wrote a phone call to him.
He stood up, took the phone number Yang Ping wrote to him, and said to himself: "It can be cured, it can be cured."
Next.
A young woman, in her early twenties, sat in front of her: "Doctor, I---"
"What's wrong with you?" Yang Ping asked.
He didn't speak, his face turned red, and he said, "I'll write to you."
Yang Ping gave her paper and pen.
She wrote: "I often have dysmenorrhea!"
I was embarrassed, how should I say this? I quickly made a draft in my mind to explain the condition clearly without embarrassing the girl.
I also know a little about diseases in other departments, but I am not as good as a specialist, so I picked up my pen and prepared to write.
Xiao Su was nearby, taking a sneak peek and almost laughed out loud.
"It's raining!"
"It's raining!"
Someone in the crowd shouted.
The weather was fine just now, with a little bit of sunshine.
