Qin Fan naturally understood Yi Zhou's thoughts. For doctors, the best way to communicate is through observation.
"Oh, what are the symptoms of this old gentleman?"
Qin Fan did not refuse and directly asked the old man about the specific situation.
Yi Zhou said: "He has numbness in his limbs, not locally, but all over the body."
"Are you numb at any time?"
Qin Fan asked again.
Uncle Sun shook his head, "No, it's intermittent, but every time my whole body goes numb, I don't know anything anymore."
Yi Zhou quickly added, "It's the state of being unconscious."
Qin Fan nodded, thoughtfully.
He felt that this disease was somewhat special, as he seemed to have seen such a case somewhere.
"Mr. Qin, please come to my office."
Yi Zhou extended his hand to invite.
Then he said to Uncle Sun: "Uncle Sun, you are so lucky today."
"Mr. Qin is a master of traditional Chinese medicine from China. If he can help you take a look, he may be able to solve your problem."
When Uncle Sun heard that Qin Fan was a traditional Chinese medicine doctor from China, his eyes lit up.
In fact, numbness is a physical symptom that we often encounter in our daily lives.
Exogenous wind, cold and dampness, disharmony between the muscles and the body's muscles, and pathological changes in the lumbar and cervical spine will all lead to numbness of the limbs.
But there are not many people like Uncle Sun who are numb all over the body and fall unconscious as soon as the attack occurs.
Yi Zhou's office is very large, almost 20 square meters.
His personal assistant brought tea to several people and placed it in front of everyone.
Yi Zhou rummaged in front of a row of cabinets for a while and took out a small card, which was about the same size as a bank card.
He entered the card's long string of numbers into a computer system.
Uncle Sun's detailed medical records popped up.
Yi Zhou turned his laptop around and faced Qin Fan.
"Mr. Qin, these are all of Uncle Sun's electronic medical records."
"Mr. Yi, can patients carry electronic medical records like this with them?"
Qin Fan was a little more curious.
"Yes, you can take it away at any time. It records Uncle Sun's various examinations and diagnosis results in Western medicine and Chinese medicine, including medication."
Yi Zhou said.
Qin Fan nodded and looked through the computer.
The files are indeed very detailed, containing not only various examination reports from Western medicine, but also some prescriptions for Chinese medicine treatment.
Each clinic and hospital is clearly classified.
Qin Fan couldn't help but admire secretly.
At this point, domestic hospitals and clinics are all inadequate.
Although they all have medical records, they cannot be carried with one card and often remain on paper.
Even the National Health Insurance Card only has the function of paying for medical treatment.
Qin Fan once again felt that this was a saving grace.
This makes it convenient for patients to seek medical treatment, and doctors can truly understand the patient's true condition.
For example, it is recorded in the electronic files that Uncle Sun will become unconscious once he has an attack, but it only takes a while to resolve on his own.
The file also specifically reminds patients not to drive alone or walk on the road.
Qin Fan looked through the TCM treatment plans again.
He found that most doctors treated patients based on the idea of dispelling wind evil.
He looked at some of the treatment prescriptions in the past, and found that some took twenty doses in a row, and the shortest one was five or six doses.
But the results were not good, and they did not fundamentally solve Sun Bo's problem.
Qin Fan stopped reading and thought of a medical case he had read.
The symptoms were almost identical to his current symptoms, but he still needed further confirmation.
"Uncle Sun, let me check your veins first."
Qin Fan said.
Uncle Sun very cooperatively stretched out his left hand first, and then his right hand to check the tongue coating and so on.
The fourth diagnosis revealed that the pulse was weak and slow, the tongue was pale, the complexion was dull, and the patient was tired and weak.
Qin Fan thought for a moment, then a relieved smile appeared on his face.
Yi Zhou knew that Qin Fan must have thought of something.
He tentatively asked: "Mr. Qin, could Uncle Sun's numbness be caused by the wrong medication?"
"Well, the main reason is that the treatment direction is wrong."
Qin Fan said: "Uncle Sun's condition should not be due to wind disease."
Yi Zhou frowned. If the treatment was in the wrong direction, then the medication must also be wrong.
He carefully recalled the results of past diagnoses, but still couldn't find any clues.
"Mr. Qin, please tell me in detail."
"Mr. Yi, I don't know if you have read the book "Shishan Medical Records". The author is a layman from Shishan in the Ming Dynasty. His real name is Wang Ji."
Yi Zhou smiled awkwardly and shook his head.
To be honest, he had never even heard of the title of the book.
Qin Fan was startled, and immediately thought that this was overseas, and Chinese medicine was not taken seriously in the first place, let alone these ancient medical books.
He can know because the Jiang family has thousands of years of collection.
Its collection is very rich, divided into two categories: internal and external, and its content is all-inclusive.
And "Shishan Medical Records" is just an ordinary medical book outside the study, and it is not considered a treasure at all.
It can be found in relatively large libraries in the country.
It’s just that the printing volume is relatively small and it’s difficult to find.
"In this book, it is recorded that there is a medical case that is almost exactly the same as Uncle Sun's disease."
Qin Fan said.
He thought for a while, "Then let me ask you, what will happen if you squat for too long?"
"My lower limbs are numb and I lose feeling."
"Yes, what is the cause of this numbness?"
Qin Fan asked again.
"It's because we squat for a long time and maintain a fixed posture, our Qi movement in the body is blocked."
"The blood in the body cannot be transported, and numbness will occur."
Yi Zhou answered without thinking.
This is a simple common sense in life.
Qin Fan nodded, "Ordinary people are like this, let alone Uncle Sun."
"You see, Uncle Sun has a pale tongue, a weak and slow pulse, his complexion is not very good, he has big bags under his eyes, and he looks lazy and tired."
When Yi Zhou heard what Qin Fan said, he looked at Uncle Sun carefully and compared the four diagnoses, and felt that what Qin Fan said was true.
Isn't this a sign of Qi deficiency?
!
If the flow of Qi is blocked, the limbs will become numb.
The heart of the human body contains the spirit, and the qi cannot reach the heart. If the mind and spirit are not nourished, the heart will also become "numb".
The symptom of numbness is that one becomes unconscious and unconscious.
After such an analysis, Yi Zhou suddenly became enlightened.
No wonder the previous prescriptions were ineffective and the general direction was wrong.
He cupped his hands and said, "Thank you, Mr. Qin, for your advice. Listening to you is worth ten years of reading!"
Qin Fan smiled and waved his hands repeatedly.
"Haha, this is not my credit, but the medical record of Shishan layman. I just directly applied it here."
Later, Qin Fan gave instructions to Yi Zhou to prescribe the medicine based on the prescriptions recorded in the medical records.
This is a prescription that strengthens the spleen and qi, nourishes yin and blood, and promotes qi and stagnation.
Yi Zhou handed the prescription to Uncle Sun, told him to go back and boil it, and told him to come back for a follow-up consultation in a few days.
After seeing Uncle Sun off, Yi Zhou stood up and filled Qin Fan's tea cup with some water.
Somewhat embarrassedly, he said: "Mr. Qin, I have a heartfelt request. I wonder if you can help me?"
Qin Fan smiled and said, "You mean "Shishan Medical Case"."
The other party nodded repeatedly, "Oh, there are no such medical books overseas. Most of them are common Chinese medicine theory books."
"Every time a friend goes to China, I ask them to bring back some medical books."
"Well, that's no problem. I'll give you a copy."
Qin Fan readily agreed.
He visited Yi Zhou's medical clinic today, which was very fruitful and enlightening.
Reciprocating a favor by presenting a medical book is also a form of reciprocity.
"Hahaha, then I would like to thank Mr. Qin in advance for donating the book."
Yi Zhou was overjoyed.
Traditional Chinese medicine is an empirical science, and medical records are the analysis and summary of special cases by predecessors.
This contains the medication and treatment experience of our predecessors.
The more medical records you read, the more you will broaden your horizons and advance your understanding from one level to another.
The Jiang family has produced many talented people in every generation, which has a lot to do with its rich collection of books.
It is rumored to be a temple of traditional Chinese medicine for this reason.
