The patient opened his mouth, and Qin Fan pressed the patient's tongue with a cotton swab.
Under the light, the patient's right gums were red and swollen, the tongue was red with purple, and the tongue coating was white and thick.
When Qin Fan observed, Xuanyuan Lin also took a look.
This is typical gum inflammation and tooth pain caused by stomach fire.
"I'll give you a pulse." Qin Fan said, "First the left hand and then the right hand."
The patient placed his wrist on the pulse pillow, and Qin Fan put his fingers on it skillfully.
The other party's pulse was very rapid, at least six times between each exhalation and each inhalation.
Qin Fan asked: "How has your bowel movement been in the past few days?"
"Dry, like sheep shit."
"Okay, I understand." Qin Fan nodded.
He turned around and said to Xuanyuan Lin: "Xiao Lin, check this gentleman's pulse and think about how to prescribe medicine."
Then, he took up a pen to record the other person's name, age, etc.
"Sir, what's your surname?" Qin Fan asked.
"My name is Tang Yong, I am 42 years old, Han nationality."
Qin Fan quickly filled these out.
"Mr. Qin, is there any simple and easy way to relieve my pain?"
Tang Yong added: "Because I often travel on business, spicy and inflammatory food is unavoidable."
"Over time, it seemed to become a recurring glitch."
Qin Fan immediately laughed.
It seems that Tang Yong is also troubled by this little problem.
In fact, this kind of stomach-fire type toothache is mainly due to the strong stomach fire, causing inflammation of the gastric meridian.
It is often accompanied by symptoms such as gum swelling and pain, bad breath, and constipation.
"There must be some, but you still need to cooperate with medicine for treatment." Qin Fan said.
"Most of your situation is caused by your eating habits. As long as you regulate the function of your gastrointestinal tract and eat more light food, you can fundamentally solve the problem."
"Well, that's for sure. I often go out of town and some of the medicines I bought can't solve the problem at all."
"Mr. Qin, please teach me a few tricks."
At this time, Xuanyuan Lin had completed the pulse diagnosis and was thinking about how to prescribe this medicine.
She first wrote down Tang Yong's four diagnostic conditions on a piece of white paper, such as rapid pulse, thick white tongue coating, red and swollen gums, etc.
Then he wrote a prescription based on these symptoms, repeatedly considered and modified the amount of medicinal materials.
Qin Fan also allowed Xuanyuan Lin to express himself.
He smiled and said to Tang Yong, "Okay, I'll teach you a few acupuncture points, which are very effective for toothache."
"Toothache is closely related to the Hand Yangming Meridian, Foot Yangming Meridian and Kidney Meridian, so the pain relief lies within ourselves."
He walked to Tang Yong and showed him how to do it.
"Put your palms together first."
Tang Yong did as he was told, and Qin Fan pointed to the highest point of the bulging muscle when his thumb and index finger were brought together.
"This is the Hegu point. Use the pad of your thumb to slowly apply force to the periosteum of the second metacarpal bone."
Tang Yong experienced it based on Qin Fan's description.
"Well, that's it. Do you feel any soreness or swelling?"
"Yeah, I feel it." Tang Yong nodded and said.
After Tang Yong became familiar with it, Qin Fan continued: "The second step is to knead the Xiaguan point."
"This acupoint is located on the side of the head, about a finger width in front of the ear."
"Yes, that's the position." Qin Fan corrected Tang Yong's position.
"When you have unbearable toothache, you can use your thumb to align the Xiaguan point on the side of the toothache and press it hard until you feel sore and numb."
Tang Yong gave it a try, and until he mastered the key, Qin Fan continued to demonstrate.
"Finally, there is the Jieche point, which is an important point for toothache."
"The cheekbone point is located on the cheek, in front and above the angle of the mandible, about a finger width below the ear."
"It's the depression in the bulge of the muscle when chewing something."
After a long pause, Qin Fan added: "To press this acupoint, you need to use the pulp of your middle finger to rub it."
"Press and rub clockwise or counterclockwise to drive the subcutaneous tissue to produce a sense of soreness and swelling, so that the soreness and swelling can be transmitted to the root of the tooth."
Tang Yong tried it over and over again until he was completely familiar with the acupuncture points.
He said with some surprise: "Mr. Qin, I do feel it. It seems that the pain is not as bad as it was at the beginning."
Qin Fan smiled.
"If you are on a business trip or don't have time to take medicine, you can use these three acupuncture points to relieve pain and relieve pain."
"This is just a temporary method, but there are three types of toothache that cannot be endured and you must see a doctor in time."
"Oh, which three are they?"
"It hurts when I'm cold, my gums swell and hurt, and it hurts when I eat something."
"These three situations indicate that there is something wrong with the teeth, or there is sensitivity, inflammation, or dental disease, etc."
Tang Yong nodded with satisfaction and gave a thumbs up in praise.
"Mr. Qin, they all say that they will learn a lot of common sense from seeing a doctor from you, and that's true."
Qin Fan smiled and waved his hands.
"It is also the responsibility of our doctors to help you solve your minor ailments."
"Xiao Lin, are you ready?"
"I'm ready, Mr. Qin."
Xuanyuan Lin handed a prescription to Qin Fan.
Xuanyuan Lin figured it out while Qin Fan was teaching him how to press acupuncture points. She was very serious about it and revised it repeatedly.
Of course it is not a formal prescription, Qin Fan just wants to see if Xuanyuan Lin can prescribe it correctly according to the symptoms.
In fact, this type of toothache caused by stomach fire is the most common disease.
Based on the knowledge he learned and the diagnosis results, Xuanyuan Lin prescribed Baihu Decoction.
The prescription is composed of gypsum, anemarrhena, licorice, and japonica rice. Considering the dryness of the stool, angelica, chuanxiong, and forsythia are specially added.
Qin Fan looked at it from beginning to end before nodding.
"Xiao Lin, overall, the prescription is quite satisfactory and there are no major problems."
"But it would be better if the angelica, chuanqiong, and forsythia were replaced by rhubarb, coptis, and skullcap."
"Oh, why, Mr. Qin?"
Qin Fan smiled and said: "Mr. Tang said that his stool was like sheep feces, which means that there is heat accumulation in the stomach and intestines, and the symptoms of constipation are very serious."
"Yes, yes, it's very difficult for me to go to the toilet. It takes me half an hour every time."
Tang Yong on the side quickly added.
Qin Fan continued: "If the stool can be excreted normally but is just dry, there is nothing wrong with using your three-flavored medicine."
"Oh, I understand." Xuanyuan Lin nodded.
Qin Fan neatly filled in the prescription prescribed by Xuanyuan Lin, and adjusted the amount of rhubarb, coptis, and skullcap to 15 grams each.
Then he signed his name and handed it to Tang Yong to grab the medicine.
Xuanyuan Lin carefully recorded his feelings about this disease in his notebook.
Experience is gained step by step in this way, and a good Chinese medicine practitioner grows up slowly in this way.
Time flies very quickly, and it’s noon in a flash.
During the break.
Qin Fan called Xiaowen and Phoenix Girl and handed the Rubik's Cube to them.
After listening to Qin Fan's analysis.
Xiao Wen said: "Sir, I agree with your analysis. Wu Yi may have mailed something to Wu Luo."
"And this thing may involve a secret. Let's try to imagine Wu Yi's mentality."
Phoenix Girl curled her lips, "That bad guy must have thought so. If you let me die, I won't let you feel at ease either."
Qin Fan and Xiao Wen both couldn't help laughing and gave the Phoenix Girl a thumbs up.
"As for whether this Rubik's Cube is a token, it's best to bring it with you." Xiao Wen added.
"It's possible, this bad guy is very cunning." Phoenix Girl said, "Sir, I'd better give it a try. I'm familiar with Miao territory."
Qin Fan thought for a moment.
"Okay, then Yanni has a hard time and please pay attention to safety on the way."
"Well, don't worry, I'll be back as soon as I get it."
After lunch, Phoenix Girl took the Rubik's Cube and headed to Miao territory.
But no one knew that she was not going alone.
The coach also went with him and taught Phoenix Girl martial arts along the way.
Dingli Company in Linhai.
"Mr. Zhou, you go home and have a rest." Huo Tong, assistant to the general manager, advised Zhou Yulan.
Zhou Yulan just went to the bathroom and retched.
Her face looked very ugly, but she just kept insisting.
"It's okay, this little guy is very annoying." Zhou Yulan was also helpless.
I couldn't eat much, and I retched from time to time.
"Do you want to eat an apple? I'll peel one for you." Huo Tong asked.
"Well, choose a smaller one. I can't eat much, but I still want to eat it."
Huo Tong smiled. Every woman's reaction in the early stage of pregnancy is different.
She took an apple from the side, washed it, and then peeled it carefully.
Finally, he handed it to Zhou Yulan and said, "Mr. Zhou, the person who made you so happy must be a boy."
"Hehe, how do you know?"
"When I was pregnant with my daughter, I didn't have such a big reaction. It seemed like it was over in a few days."
"Oh, boys are too naughty, girls are the best." Zhou Yulan said.
"Mr. Zhou, it's not up to you to have the final say."
While the two were talking, the outside phone on Zhou Yulan's desk rang.
Huo Tong helped press the hands-free button.
"Xiao Liu, what's the matter?"
"Oh, Assistant Huo, there are two people who want to see Mr. Zhou, but they don't have an appointment."
"Where are they from?"
"Said he came from the capital."
Capital City? Zhou Yulan stopped chewing the apple and signaled to Huo Tong to ask more carefully.
"Are they boys or girls?" Huo Tong asked.
"Two men, one middle-aged and one old man." Xiao Liu at the front desk said.
"ah!"
Zhou Yulan was startled and thought to herself: "Could it be dad and grandpa here?"
