When she said this, Fang Xuelin was immediately dumbfounded.
Chinese medicine is still Chinese medicine without herbal medicine, and herbal decoction is just a way of treatment.
Qin Fan also smiled, he thought this female ambassador was quite interesting.
Lu Zhenru first asked Fang Xuelin, as for Qin Fan, if he had any ancestral secret recipe, and then talked about it last.
Fang Xuelin nodded and stood up.
"Ambassador, let me give you a pulse."
Lu Zhenru nodded in agreement. She knew that traditional Chinese medicine requires four types of diagnosis: sight, smell, inquiry, and incision.
Seeing her stretch out her left hand, Fang Xuelin smiled and said: "Ambassador, first the left hand and then the right hand."
"Mr. Fang, why does Chinese medicine divide men's pulses on the left and women's right?" Lu Zhenru was very curious.
Fang Xuelin placed three fingers on the opponent's pulse very skillfully.
Then he explained: "Ancient Chinese philosophers believed that the two opposites that govern things and people in the universe are yin and yang."
"Things in nature have sizes, lengths, up and down, left and right, etc."
"The ancients classified them into big, long, upper, and left as yang, small, short, lower, and right as yin."
"Yang is strong, Yin is weak."
"Human character, men are fierce and strong, Yang is on the left; women are soft, gentle and Yin is on the right."
"Men on the left and women on the right represent the physiological differences between men and women in medicine."
"When diagnosing the pulse in traditional Chinese medicine, men take Qi pulses from the left hand, and women take blood pulses from the right hand."
When Professor Ni Hongshen heard Fang Xuelin's explanation, a hint of ridicule appeared on his face.
Western medicine has never believed in the theories of traditional Chinese medicine.
I thought to myself: "Men are on the left and women are on the right, yin and yang are in opposition, it's all nonsense!"
Professor Williams, who is from the UK, was even more confused and his eyebrows were furrowed.
What size, length, up and down, left and right, it's just a mess.
Lu Zhenru also seemed to understand.
"Oh, there are so many things to pay attention to."
"Ambassador, please change your hand." Fang Xuelin said.
After taking his pulse, he didn't feel there was anything wrong with Lu Zhenru's pulse.
"Ambassador, let me check the coating of your tongue."
Lu Zhenru followed the instructions and the tongue coating was normal.
At this time, even Fang Xuelin frowned, because based on his experience, Lu Zhenru was not sick at all.
Seeing Fang Xuelin frowning, a very strange expression.
Lu Zhenru couldn't help but ask: "Mr. Fang, what is the reason for your judgment?"
Fang Xuelin looked at Lu Zhenru.
"Ambassador, judging from my experience, you are not sick at all."
Not sick? Lu Zhenru, Smith, Professor Ni Hongshen and Professor Williams were all stunned.
After a few seconds of sluggishness, a burst of laughter rang out.
"Hahaha, Mr. Fang, you are so funny. You actually diagnosed the ambassador as not sick."
Professor Ni Hongshen sarcastically said: "You are the president of the Traditional Chinese Medicine Association."
Professor Williams smiled faintly, with disdain on his face.
"Mr. Fang, how do you explain the ambassador's tinnitus?"
He thought about Fang Xuelin's theory of men being left and women being right, and he felt that Chinese medicine was just making things up.
He thought to himself: "It is a waste of time for the Ambassador to ask a Chinese medicine practitioner to come over."
A trace of disappointment also flashed in Lu Zhenru's eyes.
She has tinnitus which is unbearable, but the Chinese medicine diagnosis says she is not sick.
Fang Xuelin was not angry at the ridicule of Professor Ni Hongshen and Professor Williams.
"Ambassador, there is indeed nothing wrong with your body. From the perspective of traditional Chinese medicine, it means that the tinnitus does not come from any physical disease on your part."
"Nonsense! There is no physical problem, so how can tinnitus occur!" Professor Ni Hongshen reprimanded him unceremoniously.
Indeed, it is impossible to have tinnitus for no reason.
If it’s not from a physical disease, what could be the cause?
Since Fang Xuelin had gone through all four diagnoses, Qin Fan completely believed in Fang Xuelin's diagnosis.
His eyes fell on the Persian cat in Lu Zhenru's arms again.
Qin Fan stood up and smiled slightly.
"Ambassador, can I ask you a few questions?"
Seeing that the youngest Chinese medicine practitioner came forward, Professor Ni Hongshen and Professor Williams also stopped their verbal and written criticism.
Their faces were full of sarcasm.
Everyone wanted to see what young Qin Fan could express his opinions.
"Well, yes, please tell me."
Although Lu Zhenru was a little disappointed with Chinese medicine, he was still very personable.
"Is this Persian cat your pet?"
Professor Ni Hongshen and Professor Williams both looked strange when they saw that Qin Fan did not diagnose, but came to question the ambassador's Persian cat.
What does this guy want to do?
Fang Xuelin seemed to have thought of something, with an expression of sudden realization.
"Yes, he is a very well-behaved little guy."
Lu Zhenru was stroking the Persian cat's silky hair while talking.
Qin Fan continued to ask: "When you sleep, the Persian cat also goes to bed?"
"Yes, it likes to sleep next to me." Lu Zhenru replied.
"Thank you Ambassador, I understand?"
Seeing Qin Fan, he just asked a few simple questions and everything was explained clearly.
Professor Ni Hongshen couldn't help being amused and thought to himself, "If you ask a few questions about Persian cats, you will understand? What do you want us professors to do?"
He showed a sarcastic smile and said, "Mr. Qin, what do you understand?"
“Is the ambassador’s tinnitus related to Persian cats?”
Qin Fan glanced at the other person. This guy had been provoking from the beginning to the end.
"Professor Ni, you are worthy of being a professor. You can guess that."
What? Professor Ni Hongshen and Professor Williams looked at each other.
Then, the two couldn't stop laughing again.
Even Lu Zhenru felt it was a bit ridiculous. Persian cats can cause tinnitus. No doctor has ever said so.
This is the most novel idea she has heard since she was treated for tinnitus.
At this time, Professor Williams became a little excited.
He felt that Qin Fan was completely making fun of the dignified British Ambassador.
"This is absolutely ridiculous! Ambassador, I suggest that traditional Chinese medicine diagnosis be terminated."
"You are the British ambassador, and this Chinese medicine diagnosis is completely disrespectful to you!"
Professor Ni Hongshen also scolded, "Qin Fan! You think this is a small clinic, you can talk nonsense as you please!"
Lu Zhenru frowned slightly, feeling that the two Western doctors were not as graceful as they should be.
However, she was somewhat interested in Qin Fan's words.
She waved her hand and said, "Mr. Qin, why do you say it is related to Persian cats?"
Qin Fan smiled and said, "I believe in the diagnosis given to you by President Fang. The ambassador is in good health and there is nothing wrong with him at all."
"Then the only possibility is this Persian cat."
Professor Ni Hongshen and Professor Williams shook their heads repeatedly, not believing Qin Fan's statement at all.
Qin Fan continued: "Ambassador, you said that when you have tinnitus, the sound you make is a rustling sound, right?"
"Yes."
"It's not continuous tinnitus, but intermittent, stuffy ears and hearing loss, right?"
"That's right." Lu Zhenru replied.
Qin Fan smiled lightly.
"That's right, the ambassador pampered the Persian cat too much, causing the bugs on the cat to get into the ears."
What? Bugs?
Lu Zhenru's hands stopped stroking the Persian cat.
Fang Xuelin nodded repeatedly, with a smile on his face.
"Impossible, absolutely impossible!" Ni Hongshen said: "Western medicine has already examined the ambassador's ear canal."
"Yes, it's so ridiculous. If there are bugs in the ears, Western medicine can also see them with an otoscope."
Professor Williams also kept shaking his head. This was the most ridiculous diagnosis they had ever heard.
"What's impossible? Everything is possible!"
Qin Fan glanced at the other party lightly.
"Since your Western medicine treatment has no effect on neurological tinnitus, why are you unwilling to admit our diagnosis of traditional Chinese medicine?"
Well, Professor Ni Hongshen and Professor Williams were speechless.
Indeed, just because you can't do it doesn't mean that others can't do it.
Anyway, treating neurological tinnitus is casting a wide net, so why should we care about the diagnosis of traditional Chinese medicine.
After a pause, Qin Fan continued: "Persian cats have many kinds of parasites. The ambassador likes Persian cats and even sleeps next to them at night."
"This parasite can enter the ears through contact between animal hair and humans."
"There are some tiny parasites that cannot be found unless you look carefully."
"But to our ears, even if they crawl slightly, it feels like a rustling sound, like thunder."
"It blocks the ears and naturally causes hearing loss."
"Hmph!" Professor Ni Hongshen and Professor Williams both snorted.
After listening to Qin Fan's explanation, Lu Zhenru seemed to feel that it made sense.
She was a little embarrassed, "Mr. Qin, what should I do? I don't want to take your Chinese herbal medicine."
"Haha, you don't need to take medicine, you just need to flush the ear canal." Qin Fan said with a smile.
"Ambassador, you must not do this. If there are really bugs, you must go to a regular hospital and use scientific methods."
Professor Williams advised: "Our eardrums are very fragile, and if we are not careful, it will cause serious consequences."
Lu Zhenru waved his hand, a little unhappy with Professor Williams' repeated obstruction.
"Stop talking, do you still want me to continue taking those Western medicines for neurological treatment?"
"This this…"
Professor Williams hit a big snag, and his old face turned red.
When Professor Ni Hongshen saw this, he quickly shut up.
Lu Zhenru now has a lot more confidence in Qin Fan.
She looked at Qin Fan and said, "Mr. Qin, how do you do ear canal irrigation?"
"Ambassador, do you have saline and syringes?" Qin Fan asked.
