Qin Fan smiled and said, "Old man, she was half right."
"Ah!" The old man looked straight at Qin Fan.
If the fishing friends around him hadn't recommended it to him, he might have doubted Qin Fan's medical skills.
Terry Giles is a doctor of Western medicine, so he is not surprised at all.
Although there is a big difference between Western medicine and Chinese medicine, there is a consensus among Western medicine and Chinese medicine that various diseases of the body are caused by poor emotions.
Whether it is Western medicine or traditional Chinese medicine, during treatment, the patient will be repeatedly emphasized to stay in a happy mood.
Qin Fan smiled.
"Old man, you must have heard that too much anger can harm your body, and too much anger can harm your liver."
The old man nodded in acquiescence.
"We also often say that your stomach hurts when you are angry, and your stomach hurts when you are angry. These words are not empty talk."
"Oh, tell me then." The old man was still dubious.
Qin Fan said with a smile: "High qi is harmful to the body, and the most direct impact of anger is often on the liver. Most people with bad tempers have imbalances in the liver and spleen."
"When we are particularly angry and emotional, it will lead to liver qi stagnation and liver qi invading the stomach."
"In addition, when a person is angry, the anger is particularly strong. If you feel dry in the mouth and drink ice water, it will damage the stomach yang and cause an imbalance in the self-regulation function."
"Causes the lower esophageal sphincter to contract and spasm, making it impossible to swallow anything."
"Mr. Qin, what is the esophageal sphincter?" The old man heard very confused.
Most people don’t understand this very professional term.
Qin Fan doesn't mind the trouble. His medical practice is to satisfy the patient's right to know as much as possible.
He drew a simple diagram of the stomach and esophagus, pointing to the narrow esophagus above the stomach.
"This is the esophagus. When we eat something, it first enters the esophageal tube and stimulates the receptors on the wall of the tube at the same time."
"When this receptor receives a signal, it will reflexively cause the sphincter to relax, allowing food to enter the stomach."
"When food enters the stomach, the lower esophageal sphincter will contract again and restore its resting tension to prevent stomach acid, food, etc. from flowing back into the esophagus."
"Once the sphincter cannot relax, swallowing food will be blocked, resulting in symptoms such as dysphagia and food regurgitation."
The old man listened to Qin Fan's explanation very carefully.
He nodded, "Oh, I understand somewhat. It's like a bag with a small opening. Now there's something wrong with the opening."
Qin Fan smiled and said, "It can be understood that way."
Then, he changed the subject and returned to the topic.
"We have already said before that your inability to swallow food is caused by sphincter spasm."
"When you find that you can't swallow food, you feel very nervous and anxious."
"You'll pay more attention to the problem, and as a result, the more you pay attention, the more anxious you will be, and the more your sphincter will spasm."
The old man thought about it carefully, nodded and said, "That seems to be true."
He paused and then asked: "Why can I swallow food while fishing?"
Qin Fan said: "That's because your attention has shifted to the floating signal."
"Simply put, when you are fishing, your attention is diverted and you no longer put mental pressure on the esophagus emotionally, and the self-regulation function of the esophagus is liberated."
"So, before you know it, you can swallow the food."
Terry Giles nodded repeatedly. He agreed with Qin Fan's explanation.
"Well, Mr. Qin, I completely understand. It makes sense."
The old man sighed a little, "I have seen the diagnosis of traditional Chinese medicine today. It is simple and easy to understand."
This gave him a lot of confidence, "Then how do I treat it?"
"It doesn't matter, I'll prescribe some medicine and you can adjust it."
Qin Fan took up his pen and wrote down a prescription, which is mainly to soothe the liver, warm the stomach, resolve turbidity, and reduce inverse syndrome.
After giving it to the old man, the old man asked again, "Mr. Qin, how long do I need to drink this medicine?"
"Three times a day, a small bowl each time, but there is still one missing medicine."
The old man frowned slightly, "Why is there a shortage of medicine? Don't you have any here?"
"Well, I really don't have one here, but your son's place." Qin Fan smiled.
"Mr. Qin, stop joking with me. I ignored that kid for two months."
The old man was a little angry, and he was obviously still angry with his son.
"Then why don't you call and ask?"
"Does this have something to do with medicine?" The old man was a little confused.
Even Terry Giles and Xuanyuan Lin began to be confused as to what medicine could be obtained by making a phone call.
Qin Fan smiled and motioned for the old man to call.
The old man dialed a number hesitantly.
After a few rings, a man's voice came from over there.
"Hey, Dad, where are you?"
The old man hesitated and said, "I'm outside."
He didn't tell the other party that he was in a hospital.
"Oh, dad, let me tell you, Yuanyuan is pregnant, and you are going to be a grandpa."
"We are with mom now."
When the old man heard this, he stood up immediately.
"Why didn't you tell me earlier? You haven't held a wedding yet! Are you and Yuanyuan at home?"
"yes."
"Then you wait!"
The old man put down the phone and started laughing on the spot.
"Mr. Qin, look at my son, the happy event has not yet been held, and I am about to become a grandfather."
Qin Fan stood up and laughed.
"Old man, be happy!"
"Well, I'm happy." The old man said "happy" in succession, looking very excited.
"I became a grandfather without knowing it. I have to go back."
He walked to the door and stopped again.
"Hey, Mr. Qin, where is my medicine guide?"
Yes, what is Yaoyin?
Qin Fan laughed again, "Old man, you have already got the medicine. Go and grab it."
"Oh, I see!"
The old man slapped his forehead and suddenly realized.
"Thank you Mr. Qin, you are truly well-deserved! And little doctor, given time, you will be like Mr. Qin."
He thanked her repeatedly and praised Xuanyuan Lin before leaving.
At this time, Xuanyuan Lin and Terry Giles also understood what the so-called medicine guide was.
That is a happy mood.
Qin Fan turned to Xuanyuan Lin and asked, "Xiao Lin, do you know why happiness is used as a medicine guide?"
Xuanyuan Lin smiled sweetly.
"Mr. Qin, my understanding is that when people grow old, they become relatives across generations. I heard that I am going to be a grandfather."
"The old man will definitely be very happy. He has accepted the reality from a psychological level and will agree to the marriage."
"His mood will also change from anger to joy, and with the help of medication, he will recover easily."
Qin Fan nodded approvingly.
"Yes, in fact, this is a disease caused by emotions. We often say that opening the knot in the heart can only be opened by a grandson."
Terry Giles nodded thoughtfully and gave a thumbs up in admiration.
"Mr. Qin, Chinese medicine is really interesting. Every treatment is almost a story."
Qin Fan smiled and said, "Mr. Xia Tian, is there something you don't understand again?"
"Oh, it's here..."
Terry Giles quickly asked Qin Fan for advice.
Then, Qin Fan gave the other party some guidance.
Just finished explaining it to Terry Giles.
Xiaowen walked into the office and said, "Sir, a guest is here."
"Oh, who is it?"
"It's Director Lei Hongjun, Director Cheng Peng and Dean Qian."
"Oh~"
Qin Fan quickly stood up and walked to the conference room.
He was a little strange and didn't know why these people came here.
When I opened the door, I saw Director Lei Hongjun, Director Cheng Peng, and the two deans Qian Guangqi and Chen Jun.
"Leiting Hall, Director Cheng, and the two deans, you are so far away from us!"
"Mr. Qin, we came uninvited." Lei Hongjun said with a smile.
Several people stood up and shook hands with Qin Fan.
"Please sit down quickly!"
Qin Fan made an invitation gesture to several people.
After a few people sat down.
Lei Hongjun was the first to ask: "Mr. Qin, how are the five trainees doing?"
"Yes, they are all smart, have strong receptivity, and get started quickly."
"Given time and practice, you will become the backbone."
Lei Hongjun nodded, "It's a pity that there are too few such seedlings."
"This time of exceptional recruitment, many people wrote anonymous letters to complain to Director Cheng Peng and to me."
"Oh~"
Qin Fan glanced at Qian Guangqi and Chen Jun, both of whom were a little embarrassed.
But if you think about it, you can imagine that this will indeed make many people dissatisfied.
"Haha, the two deans must be under a lot of pressure." Qin Fan said.
Lei Hongjun laughed.
"If the sky falls, there will still be tall people holding it up. No matter how much pressure they put on them, there will still be Director Cheng Peng and me."
"But because this traditional Chinese medicine hospital is a public hospital and a long-established hospital, the relationship inside is very complicated."
"Many doctors have old ideas and only care about personal gains and losses."
"There are even a small number of people who have poor medical skills, bad tempers, and a bad reputation."
When Qin Fan heard this, he nodded in agreement.
This trend exists not only in traditional Chinese medicine hospitals, but also in Western medicine hospitals, and the water in it is very deep.
Director Lei Hongjun changed the subject.
"The country has attached great importance to the cause of traditional Chinese medicine in recent years, and we have also increased our efforts, but we still lack a fire."
"This fire needs your help now, Mr. Qin."
Qin Fan was confused and didn't know what Lei Hongjun meant.
