Lao Zhao glanced at him and thought he was also a patient who came to see a doctor.
He pointed to his left knee and started to complain.
"I'm in pain here, and I feel chilly and cold. Now it's affecting my work."
"But when I got the prescription, I became even more confused. I didn't know whether I should take this medicine or not!"
"Oh, can you show me the prescription?"
"Do you still know about Chinese medicine?" Lao Zhao asked.
"Haha, I know a little bit about it," said the person in charge of the Spleen and Gastroenterology Department.
Lao Zhao didn't suspect anything and handed over the prescription.
The person in charge of the spleen and stomach department took a closer look and found that the prescription was quite satisfactory. It was indeed a prescription for removing dampness and activating blood circulation.
"There's nothing wrong with this prescription. Why don't you dare to get it?"
Old Zhao glared at him, "Can you tell what disease is being treated from this prescription? Can you tell what I need to pay attention to?"
Well, the person in charge of the Spleen and Gastroenterology Department was immediately speechless.
This Chinese medicine is not like Western medicine and has corresponding detailed instructions for use.
The patient holds a prescription in his hand and cannot understand anything except the compatibility and proportion of the medicinal materials.
The person in charge of the Spleen and Gastroenterology Department smiled coquettishly.
"Sir, you can consult a doctor to find out what is the cause of your illness, how to treat it, and what should you pay attention to in your daily life?"
It's okay if I don't mention it, but when I mention it, Lao Zhao gets a little angry.
"The people sitting in that position are all uncles who value words like gold. If I ask too many questions, he will just say one sentence, and even if you say it, you won't understand!"
"He doesn't even want to talk, how do you know if I understand or not?"
Suddenly, the person in charge of the Spleen and Gastroenterology Department was embarrassed again.
The patient is right. If you don't even want to say it, how can you know whether the other person understands it or not?
It completely strips away the patient's right to know.
At this time, Lao Zhao’s friend kindly reminded me.
"Old Zhao, the registration fee is only two yuan. It's still early now. You might as well listen to me and go find Mr. Xiao Qin to give it a try."
Old Zhao thought for a while and nodded in agreement.
"Okay, then I'll register an account and go find Mr. Xiao Qin you recommended to give it a try."
Since there were not many patients, Zhao quickly re-registered.
He and his friends walked to Qin Fei's office.
Qin Fan thought for a while, observing in such a big way would definitely not see the truest side.
"Let's go to the monitoring room and pull up the department's surveillance video to take a look." Qin Fan said.
"Okay, everyone, follow up."
Su Yuanju and a group of department heads followed closely behind.
The Hong Kong Traditional Chinese Medicine Hospital is newly built to standardize doctors' medical ethics and eliminate unhealthy practices such as accepting gifts.
Each outpatient department is equipped with cameras and pickups.
Only places involving patient privacy, such as dressing rooms, examination rooms, etc., do not have such cameras.
After a while, I arrived at the monitoring room.
Qin Fan asked the security personnel to enlarge the surveillance screen.
Everyone can see the real scene clearly.
The time was just right, Qin Feizheng stood up to see off a patient, followed closely by Lao Zhao into the department.
"Uncle, please sit down!"
Qin Fei made a gesture of invitation very politely.
This kind of welcome and drop-off is the usual habit of all the doctors in Bian Que Medical Clinic.
This is a kind of respect and will make the patient feel very friendly.
Qin Fei has been at Bian Que Medical Center for a long time, so he naturally follows the rules of the medical center.
Huang Fang, Xuanyuan Lin and the others are busy helping diagnose and checking some common minor problems.
Everyone was greeted and sent off very politely, without any pretense.
When the patients were sent away, they all stood quietly behind Qin Fei and watched.
Seeing this scene, the heads of each department couldn't help but look at each other.
Ask yourself, no one of them can really do this.
"Uncle, what's your problem?" Qin Fei, who was under surveillance, began to inquire.
"Mr. Xiao Qin, my knee hurts. It feels like cold air is blowing out. It feels uncomfortable." Lao Zhao pointed to his left knee and said.
"Oh, let me take a look."
Lao Zhao picked up his pants and Qin Fei touched them with the back of his hand.
"Well, your outer skin is very cold. Uncle, how long have you been sick?"
"It's been a while, it just appeared this winter."
"Oh, will it hurt on rainy days?" Qin Fei asked again.
"Yes, it will hurt slightly."
"Well, okay, I'll check my veins."
Qin Fan checked the pulse of both Lao Zhao's left and right hands and released them within a few minutes.
"Uncle, the evil of cold and dampness has gone down and entrenched itself in the knee joint."
"Oh, why does it hurt so much? I feel so weak and weak. It's so uncomfortable."
Qin Fei smiled and said: "Uncle, we often say a saying, if there is no communication, it will hurt, if there is no communication, it will not hurt. You have always heard it."
"I've heard that sometimes joint pain can be relieved by tapping it with your hands," said Lao Zhao.
"Yes, that is a temporary relief. Your knee is like a highway. The current cold and dampness has blocked the road."
"Qi and blood flow to the knees, and the meridians are not flowing smoothly, so pain is bound to occur."
"Moreover, this cold dampness is like a ball of ice, which will make your knees feel very cold, so you feel like you are cold."
"Oh, that's it." Lao Zhao nodded and asked again: "Mr. Xiao Qin, how did I get this disease, and how do I treat it?"
Qin Fei smiled slightly.
We face this kind of questions countless times every day, but each person’s condition is different and the reasons are also different.
"Uncle, there are many factors for this disease. In traditional Chinese medicine, dampness is divided into two types, exogenous dampness and endogenous dampness."
"Exogenous dampness is a dampness evil produced in nature, such as dampness, coldness, etc."
"Internal dampness is the dampness produced inside the body."
"Hey, Mr. Xiao Qin, this person's body can still produce moisture on its own?" Lao Zhao asked strangely.
"Of course, this is a bit far to explain, but I can briefly explain it."
"Uncle, since you are seeing Chinese medicine, you should know about yin and yang and the five elements, metal, wood, water, earth and fire."
"Of course I know this, I am an authentic Chinese," Lao Zhao said.
Qin Fei immediately laughed.
"Well, Chinese medicine classifies the five internal organs of a person according to the five elements, among which the liver is to wood, the heart is to fire, the spleen is to earth, the lungs are to metal, and the kidneys are to water."
Then the conversation changed and he suddenly asked: "Uncle, have you ever planted flowers and plants at home?"
Lao Zhao said: "Of course I have planted it, and there is a big balcony. Hey, is this related to my illness?"
Qin Fei said: "It must be related. The spleen of the human body corresponds to the earth in the five elements."
"If you think of the spleen as land, what would happen if there was too much water in the soil?"
Lao Zhao thought for a while, "If there is too much water, the soil will be wet, the roots of flowers and plants will rot, and their growth will not be good."
Qin Fei smiled and nodded.
"Yes, our body is like this. The spleen is most afraid of moisture. On the other hand, it is also the most susceptible to moisture. Once moisture is present, various diseases will occur."
Seeing this, Qin Fan couldn't help but laugh.
This younger brother is becoming more and more like him, and even this explanation is the same, explaining things in simple terms.
However, this method of explanation seems to have been set by Qin Fan, and all the doctors at Bian Que Medical Center have learned this trick.
Lao Zhao, who was under surveillance, asked again: "Where does the moisture in the body come from?"
"It is mainly caused by spleen deficiency. The spleen is responsible for transporting water and dampness, and the function of the spleen and stomach decreases. The ability to transport water and dampness is naturally greatly weakened, which will cause the water and dampness in the body to stop and accumulate in the body, forming internal dampness."
"There is also a long-term preference for eating raw and cold food, or fatty, sweet and greasy food, which can also cause internal dampness."
"Mr. Xiao Qin, I finally understand. What you mean is that my knee pain and chills are due to internal moisture accumulation caused by spleen deficiency. This is the root cause of my illness?"
