In the bedroom, the fat patient Zhou Changzhi was lying on the bed, sleeping like a pig.
A group of relatives gathered around the house, and everyone looked helpless.
Zheng Yan looked at Li Duanyang with hopeful eyes, while the others looked at each other. What does such a young doctor know?
But it’s hard for everyone to say anything. After all, due to their superficial understanding of traditional Chinese medicine, everyone only thinks that the patient should have Yang deficiency, and they don’t know anything else.
However, I still know a little more about Western medicine. I feel that the patient really has cerebral arteriosclerosis, coronary heart disease and hypertension, but the hospital just can't cure it, so it's useless no matter how correct it is.
Regardless of Chinese medicine or Western medicine, only a good doctor can cure the disease.
The patient is lying there, not listening to you talking about medical pathology. What he needs is for you to cure him.
Li Duanyang looked at Zhou Changzhi for a while, then asked Qin Linlin to take Zhou Changzhi's pulse while he went to the bathroom to wash his hands.
This caused everyone to look at each other in confusion.
Can you still care about taking on an apprentice at this time?
Qin Linlin didn't care what others looked at her, and obediently began to perform pulse diagnosis on Zhou Chang.
Naturally, farts cannot be diagnosed. We can only feel the strength and speed of the pulse a little.
But she solemnly followed the pulse diagnosis method taught to her by Li Duanyang, whether it was deep or shallow, or with three fingers or one finger.
Li Duanyang said that anyone who starts diagnosing the pulse is just pretending, but by pretending, he really feels it.
After Li Duanyang returned from the bathroom, he began to perform pulse diagnosis on Zhou Chang.
Qin Linlin took out her mobile phone and started recording.
She is now starting to learn how to write Chinese medicine medical records, um, it is called recording medical records in Western medicine.
First write the patient's name, age and date of first diagnosis, and then briefly state the patient's medical history and current condition.
(Some of the patient’s conditions have been discussed at the end of Chapter 33 and will not be repeated here.)
The patient has a fat body, a frivolous face, listlessness, lethargy, and a slight buzzing sound.
She could only write so much for the time being, and then wait to record the results of Li Duanyang's tongue diagnosis and pulse diagnosis.
Li Duanyang's pulse diagnosis took a long time this time.
Taking advantage of this time, Qin Linlin looked at the sleeping Zhou Changzhi and thought, does this person have heat syndrome or cold syndrome?
According to Li Duanyang, the heat-suppression syndrome is coma with hot body, red face and rapid pulse; the cold-suppression syndrome is coma with cold body, blue face and slow pulse.
After thinking about it, she felt that Zhou Changzhi should be suffering from heat syndrome, right?
Ah, no, she shook her head again in her mind. Zhou Changzhi should be just sleeping now, not comatose, right? Does that count as closure?
Qin Linlin thought this, and the more she thought about it, the more confused she became.
Well, if she were to suffer from this disease, she would just cry.
At this time, after Li Duanyang finished checking the pulse, he clamped the patient's cheeks with two fingers and opened the mouth slightly, looked at the tongue, and then said gently: "The pulse is weak, the tip of the tongue is red, and the coating is slightly yellow."
While Qin Linlin was recording Li Duanyang's words on her mobile phone, she thought quickly. Xu pulse is a general term for weak pulse conditions, indicating that the patient is deficient in qi and blood. Counting the pulse indicates heat. A slightly yellow coating also indicates heat, especially if the tip of the tongue is red. It should be
Are you angry?
However, since the patient is deficient in qi and blood, the heart fire can only be due to deficient fire?
As she was thinking this, she heard Li Duanyang say again: "The patient is mentally exhausted, lacks Qi and blood, and the latent heat in the body takes advantage of the deficiency to invade, so the Qingqiao is obscured.
The soul is tired and blinded, naturally lethargic; and the divine light is blocked, making it impossible to see.
As for sleepwalking, it is caused by the wind."
(Chapter 33 mentioned that the patient had sleepwalking)
While Qin Linlin was recording, she secretly wondered, how could the wind cause sleepwalking?
Is it just because the wind likes to move?
This is a bit too metaphysical.
If combined with Western medicine, sleepwalking should be due to the fact that the cerebral cortex is in a state of inhibition during sleep. However, if some of the cells that control the motor nerves are still relatively excited, symptoms of sleepwalking may occur.
So it means that the wind stimulates the cells that control the motor nerves?
It seems more logical to think about it this way.
However, in fact, Western medicine’s explanation of sleepwalking is somewhat far-fetched.
Regarding sleepwalking, Western medicine actually has many different opinions, such as the central nervous system theory, the humoral theory, the circadian cycle theory, the genetic theory, etc., and no one is convinced.
Now that I think about it, it seems that sleepwalking is really quite mysterious.
Because it is metaphysical in nature, no one can explain it clearly?
"Water (kidney) does not contain wood (liver), so liver wind arises, and the wind disturbs the gods, causing sleepwalking." Seeing Qin Linlin's confused look, Li Duanyang explained more.
Okay, this explanation is more direct and crude, and it will directly disturb the gods, so there is no need to consider other reasons such as whether there are brain cells or not.
Qin Linlin felt ashamed in her heart.
Well, the key to learning Chinese medicine is that this idea cannot be turned around, and there are many things in it that you cannot believe.
But if you don’t believe it, you can’t learn Chinese medicine...
Well, everything depends on the curative effect, and we can’t care about anything else. Anyway, the patient is lying here regardless of your medical theory or pathology. He only wants you, the doctor, to cure him.
"The treatment is suitable for replenishing qi and nourishing the heart, calming the liver and calming wind, rejuvenating the mind, clearing the heart and improving eyesight." Li Duanyang said calmly and gently.
A group of people around looked at each other in shock. The young doctor seemed to be speaking in Chinese, but they couldn't understand him at all.
Okay, we don't care what you talk about, it just depends on whether you can cure the patient.
"Let's wake the patient up first. It's not enough to just lie down like this." Li Duanyang said again.
Everyone understood this sentence and nodded in unison. Now it’s time to see what your little doctor can do.
Then everyone saw Li Duanyang starting to massage acupoints on Zhou Changzhi's body.
While he was massaging the acupuncture points, he also told Qin Linlin on the side the names and functions of the acupoints, and why he clicked these acupoints.
Don’t teach this disciple too diligently!
"This Shuigou point is also called Renzhong point, also known as ghost palace and ghost living room. It is the intersection point of the Yangming meridian and Du meridian of the hands and feet. It is the main point for awakening the brain and resuscitation. It is often used clinically to rescue comatose patients.
It can mobilize the yang energy of the Du Vessel to awaken the brain and clear the orifices. The brain energy stimulates the movement of qi in the kidneys, thereby restoring the body's life activities.
This Sanyinjiao point, as the name suggests, is where the three yin meridians of Foot Taiyin, Shaoyin and Jueyin meet.
Clicking this point can dredge the three yin meridians, lead the floating yang that has floated to the upper burner back to its original position, and can also lead the hyperactive yang to return to yin to nourish the three yin of the liver, kidney, spleen, and make the yin calm and yang secret. This can also treat mental problems.
.
Of course, acupuncture has the fastest effect, but now the patient is only slightly comatose and does not need acupuncture..."
As Li Duanyang said this, his hand movements were not slow at all, and he rubbed the patient Zhou Changzhi's Baihui, Renzhong, Fengchi, Sanyinjiao, Neiguan, and Weizhong acupoints in sequence.
It only took about three to five minutes for Zhou Changzhi to wake up with a weird moaning sound, which made Li Duanyang's skin crawl.
Is this sound a habit made by my wife?
