It was already time to turn on the lights, and Li Duanyang's tutoring to Qin Linlin was still going on.
Both the School of Medicine of Jiaotong University and the University of Traditional Chinese Medicine have elective courses in the evening, but Li Duanyang has no need to take them, and Qin Linlin has no intention of taking them.
The lights in the Qin family's living room are bright. Two old people are wearing reading glasses. One is searching for news online and the other is knitting.
It's really novel to wear sweaters these days.
However, Aunt Qin doesn't like to dance in the square, and watching TV is afraid of affecting her granddaughter's study, so she can only wear a sweater.
The two old men were doing their own thing, stopping from time to time to secretly look at Li Duanyang and Qin Linlin.
Li Duanyang flipped through the basic theories of traditional Chinese medicine to highlight the key points for Qin Linlin, wrote relevant labels, and answered Qin Linlin's endless questions.
“Cold is treated with heat, heat is treated with cold, deficiency is supplemented, and excess is purged. This is the general principle of treatment.
However, the specific treatment methods are relatively complex.
For example, in the article "cold causes heat", there are different treatments using heat: pungent and warm to relieve the surface, warming the interior and dispersing cold, warming the liver and dispersing stagnation, replenishing fire and supporting yang, warming yang and diluting water, warming meridians and dredging collaterals, and inducing fire to return to the origin.
, return to Yang and save Ni, etc.
There are many types of "heat causes cold": clearing heat and purging fire, cooling blood and detoxifying, nourishing yin and removing steam, purging heat and laxative, clearing heat and diuresis, clearing away hot phlegm, clearing the heart and resuscitating the mind, cooling the liver and calming wind, etc.
"If it is deficient, make up for it." It is necessary to distinguish between qi deficiency, blood deficiency, yin deficiency and yang deficiency before replenishing them.
"Pursing it down when it is real" is mainly aimed at the symptoms of excessive fire, dry stool, food stagnation, phlegm accumulation, blood stasis, water drinking and other symptoms. It is treated with purgative methods such as purging fire, attacking, digesting, eliminating phlegm, removing blood stasis, and removing water.
.
Before treatment, you must distinguish between the exterior and interior of yin and yang, cold and heat, otherwise the treatment may be ineffective at best, or may aggravate the condition or even lead to irreparable consequences.”
Li Duanyang answered Qin Linlin's questions calmly and gently, without looking at her. He was busy highlighting key points and writing labels for her.
Qin Linlin listened and took notes, feeling herself getting older for the first time.
After taking notes, she reviewed them again, and then muttered: "Xin Wen Jie Biao, Xin Wen Jie Biao..., this Jie Biao means sweating, right?"
“Relieving the exterior is all about treating superficial syndromes, and relieving the exterior for cold syndrome can be divided into relieving the exterior and dispersing cold and sweating to relieve the exterior.
Therefore, you don’t necessarily have to sweat to remove the skin. For example, sometimes you don’t sweat, but after the skin is removed, the cold air can penetrate through the pores of the skin.
Of course, both methods of relieving the surface usually involve sweating. The difference is that the method of sweating to relieve the surface is purely a sweating method, and what is produced is heavy sweating. Relieving the surface and dispersing cold is generally aimed at wind-cold colds, and what is produced is small sweats.
The two above-mentioned methods of relieving the surface are aimed at cold symptoms. In fact, there is a pungent and cool method for relieving the symptoms of wind-heat syndrome, which is used to reduce fever. If you sweat, you will be sweating. "
Qin Linlin took notes again, and then muttered: "Xin Wen Jie Biao, Xin Liang Jie Biao, Xin Wen Jie Biao, Xin Liang Jie Biao... Ah, I discovered a problem, why do they all have a Xin
Where are the words?”
"Why do you think it is?" Li Duanyang smiled.
"Did you use spicy medicine?" Qin Linlin said, blinking her long eyelashes.
"Smart. Indeed, every kind of medicinal soup that relieves symptoms usually contains spicy herbs. Think about it again, why?"
"Is it because the pungent taste irritates your nose?"
"Why does spicy food choke my nose?"
"..." Qin Linlin couldn't think of anything, and then she said angrily, "It's just because it's choking on your nose. How can you ask why it's choking on your nose?"
"Then do you think about the use of this smell that chokes your nose?" Li Duanyang asked from a different angle.
"Hmm..., it seems to have a volatile effect, right?"
Li Duanyang nodded: "Absolutely. In Chinese medicine, the accurate saying is that this pungent taste can disperse and move Qi. Therefore, when pungent medicine is put into the body, it will act like small bombs to disperse and move Qi.
It has the function of harmonizing and promoting blood circulation, and can open up the orifices and meridians, resolve dampness and turbidity, resolve phlegm and fluids, resolve blood stasis, raise yang qi, treat various syndromes of yang qi depression, and enable many medicines to moisturize various parts of the body and moisturize the fine particles.
silent."
Qin Linlin listened silently for a while, as if using her brain to imagine, and then sighed: "It turns out that the taste of the medicine itself is useful, it is a function in itself! What about the bitter, sweet, salty, and sour taste?"
If you can draw inferences from one instance, this girl has a strong learning ability.
Li Duanyang sighed in his heart, it was a teacher's happiness to meet such a student.
“The bitter taste can relieve, dry, and harden, so it has the functions of clearing away fire and heat, releasing and reducing qi, clearing stool, drying dampness, and strengthening yin (reducing fire and preserving yin).
For example, the laxatives and anti-inverse medicines we use are generally bitter medicines.
At the same time, the compatibility of bitterness with other traditional Chinese medicines is also very useful, such as bitterness and pungency, bitterness and pungency, bitterness and sourness, bitterness and heat relief, bitterness and coldness, bitterness and pungency, etc.
Some people like to add sugar when taking bitter medicine, which actually offsets a lot of the effect of bitter medicine. Therefore, it is best not to add sugar when taking bitter medicine. You can hold a piece of sugar in your mouth after taking the medicine.
Sweetness belongs to earth among the five elements, and the spleen also belongs to earth, so sweetness medicine is easiest to enter the spleen. In addition, sweetness is the most pleasant taste among the five flavors. It has the functions of tonifying deficiency, relieving pain, and easing the properties of medicine.
Sweet medicines can help strengthen the body and improve the ability to prevent and resist diseases, but the abuse of sweet tonic medicines can easily lead to yin and yang imbalance, qi and blood disorders and other adverse consequences.
Salty medicine has the effect of laxative, softening and dispersing clumps. At the same time, salty medicine can move blood, and the kidneys are water, so salty medicine can be introduced into the kidneys to enhance the effect of kidney tonifying. Some kidney tonifying medicines often need to be soaked in salt water.
This is the principle of system.
At the same time, salty blood circulation means that water can defeat fire. Some traditional Chinese medicines that clear away heat and detoxify have a salty taste and can enter the blood. Therefore, salty medicines can also enhance the effect of clearing away heat, cooling blood, and detoxifying.
The sour taste of traditional Chinese medicine has the effect of astringing and fixing astringency, so sour medicine is often used to nourish yin and replenish fluids, stabilize the surface and stop sweating, astringe lung qi and relieve cough, astringent intestines to stop diarrhea and dysentery, fix semen and reduce urination, stop metrorrhagia and vaginal discharge in women, etc.
"
Li Duanyang talked about such a long list, and seeing Qin Linlin remembering it quickly, he smiled and said: "You don't need to remember these, they are all in the medical books, you just need to make a simple mark."
"Doesn't it take time to look through the book? It's so clear now." Qin Linlin rolled her eyes and said, "Hey, you can't be wrong, right?"
"Well, I know why you were busy memorizing it. You wanted to see if I remembered it wrong, right? Haha, you can check the book later. If there is an error, I will deduct half of the money!" Li Duanyang said with a smile.
"You said this yourself!" Qin Linlin stopped and looked at Li Duanyang.
"I'm telling you. If I can get these things wrong, how can I be a great doctor?"
"Ha, that's not a bad tone!"
"You will gradually realize that I am really not bragging." Old God Li Duanyang said calmly, "If you don't believe it, find me a few difficult diseases to test the quality of this great doctor?"
"If you make money, share with me the referral fee?"
"Hey, are you short of these introduction fees?"
“If you pay, you will be rewarded!”
"Okay." Li Duanyang nodded, "Hey? Shouldn't you be worried that I can't cure other people's diseases first?"
"Why should I worry about that? It won't cure you, but it will embarrass you, and it won't embarrass me!"
"Cough cough cough!" Li Duanyang coughed a few times, "That's right, you have thought clearly."
Uncle Qin on the side looked worried, thought for a while and said: "Xiao Li, when you treat people, you should start with massage first? If this can't be cured, it won't cause any problems."
He still didn't quite believe how much Li Duanyang really had the ability to treat illnesses. After all, it didn't matter how old he was.
