This lumbar spine disease can be treated conservatively.
Western medicine and Chinese medicine still have many things in common.
For example, in Western medicine, you can rest, reduce long-term sitting, moderate back muscle exercises, hot compresses, and physical therapy massage.
Chinese medicine, of course, can include massage and acupuncture.
Massage and Western medical physiotherapy have almost the same properties.
Acupuncture is a bit more special.
As an old Chinese medicine practitioner.
Zhou Shouming's massage and acupuncture techniques are both very good.
Especially acupuncture.
Zhou Shouming is even more powerful.
Acupuncture.
There are actually two actions. One is acupuncture, which is to insert a filiform needle into a certain acupuncture point on the patient's body. Acupuncture techniques such as twisting and lifting are used to treat diseases.
Moxibustion is to press burning moxa on certain acupoints to burn the skin, and use heat stimulation to treat diseases.
Acupuncture has been successfully applied for world intangible cultural heritage.
It can be said that it is recognized internationally.
"I'll give you some massage and acupuncture first, which can relieve your symptoms." Zhou Shouming said.
"Uh-huh."
Zhou Shouming took Lao Fang to a separate clinic.
According to Zhou Shouming's request, Lao Fang lay face down on the hospital bed with his back exposed.
Massage and acupuncture treat diseases.
But it is a feature of traditional Chinese medicine.
Lu Xiaoke really wanted to record it.
She sought the opinions of Zhou Shouming and the patient Fang.
After getting the consent of both people.
She also entered the consultation room with her camera.
Of course Zhou Sheng followed.
When Zhou Shouming is busy.
Zhou Sheng, who has a certain foundation in traditional Chinese medicine, can also provide popular science to Lu Xiaoke.
Zhou Shouming first used a cotton ball with iodophor to wipe Lao Fang's back.
Disinfect.
Traditional Chinese medicine doctors in the past would definitely not do this.
Today’s traditional Chinese medicine has advanced with the times.
Then he took out an ordinary blue medicine box from the cabinet.
There is a line of big words "Acupuncture Needle" on the medicine box.
After opening the medicine box.
Inside are individually packaged acupuncture needles.
It's very thin and not particularly long.
It looks very much like a disposable medical device from Western medicine.
It's not like the traditional steel needles on TV.
Zhou Shouming was busy, and Lu Xiaoke could only ask Zhou Yisheng beside him: "Why are the needles taken out of the medicine box and packaged? It looks like they are disposable for Western medicine."
Zhou Sheng nodded and said: "You are right, this is a disposable acupuncture needle. Unlike traditional steel needles that are reused, this kind of thing is used once and then lost. It is more in line with modern medical safety. Traditional Chinese medicine, to this day
This era is also progressing.”
Lu Xiaoke learned a lesson.
Zhou Shengsheng continued to explain: "Regular traditional Chinese medicine hospitals now generally use this kind of needle. The needle body is also made of steel, and the needle tip is aluminum, which is thinner. Of course, if you use traditional steel needles, they must be done well.
Disinfection work.”
Lu Xiaoke nodded while taking photos.
This report on medical treatment is not like the entertainment news I reported in the past, which can be reported in any way.
You don't even go out for interviews, just sit in the office and make up some nonsense.
Almost every step Zhou Shouming made was knowledge to Lu Xiaoke.
Lu Xiaoke thought to himself, he must read it well and remember it well.
Zhou Shouming prepared acupuncture equipment.
Next is the process of treatment.
As mentioned before, treating patients with this kind of low back pain.
The best method of traditional Chinese medicine is to massage first and then acupuncture.
Zhou Shouming is old.
Now my strength is not as strong as when I was young.
So now he rarely gives massage to patients.
Usually it is direct acupuncture.
If the patient asks for massage, he will usually ask the patient to go to a traditional Chinese medicine hospital or a place that specializes in massage.
But today is different from the past.
Lu Xiaoke came to interview.
He wanted to show off his skills.
So, today he was going to give Lao Fang a full set of treatment.
Zhou Shouming brought a large white towel and covered Lao Fang's back.
Then use the palm of your hand, starting from Lao Fang's shoulders, along both sides of the spine, and rub from top to bottom.
While rubbing, he also explained: "Mass the bladder meridian of the Foot Taiyang from top to bottom. Do not rub the herniated disc area. Rubbing the herniated area will increase the chance of disc herniation and expand the herniated area..."
Lu Xiaoke asked Zhou Sheng in a low voice: "What is the bladder meridian of Foot Taiyang?"
Zhou Shengsheng explained in a low voice: "It is a general term for some acupuncture points. If you think of acupuncture points as bus stops, the foot-taiyang-bladder meridian is a bus route, a route from head to toe through the back."
Zhou Shengsheng's explanation was easy to understand, and Lu Xiaoke had an epiphany.
Zhou Shouming rubbed it three times from top to bottom.
Another method of "rolling" was used.
Knead with your palms and roll with the back of your hands.
Of course Zhou Shouming also had to explain: "Hold your hands like holding a wine glass, step your feet forward, take the elbow joint as the center, and drive the swing of the wrist joint. The wrist joint should be relaxed so that you can roll smoothly..."
Zhou Shouming was talking and doing.
That posture and aura, regardless of whether you can understand it or not, it is very professional at first glance.
He rolled it on Lao Fang's waist three more times.
This massage is now complete.
On Monday, after many years, I saw my grandpa for massage again.
Just the massage skills of grandpa.
It's not comparable to those massage shops on the street.
Today, I can appreciate it again through the light of Lu Xiaoke.
Lao Fang's waist felt much more comfortable after being rubbed.
He hummed: "Old Zhou, come here a few more times."
Zhou Shouming said: "Too much of anything is harmful to the body. Massage is enough. Next comes acupuncture."
"Yeah! I listen to you."
Zhou Shouming picked up the disposable acupuncture needle.
First find two acupuncture points on the waist.
Pierce slightly at a straight angle, 1.5-2 inches deep.
"Shenshu point."
After pricking, he announced the name of the acupoint.
"How's it going, Lao Fang?"
"My waist is sore and swollen."
"Well, very good."
The soreness and swelling is the desired effect of piercing this acupoint.
Zhou Shouming continued to find the next acupoint.
"Yaoshu point"
"Zhibian Point"
"Huan Tiao Cave"
…
Six acupuncture points were penetrated in succession.
Only then did Zhou Shouming stop.
Now Lao Fang has more than ten filiform needles on his back.
Zhou Shouming's acupoint identification is accurate and his techniques are quick.
This acupuncture time did not take much effort.
During this period, Lu Xiaoke took advantage of Zhou Shouming's operation to randomly interview a few questions.
For example, if you have spinal pain, how often should you undergo acupuncture?
Also, under what circumstances are acupuncture not suitable?
etc.
Zhou Shouming answered them one by one.
Half an hour later, the acupuncture ended.
After Lao Fang got up from the hospital bed.
I tried shaking my waist.
The pain was significantly relieved.
He thanked him repeatedly: "Old Zhou, your hands are so amazing. I will come for acupuncture tomorrow."
Zhou Shouming said: "Acupuncture is not suitable for every day. Come back in a few days and I will check you again. If necessary, do it again. Remember, you just had acupuncture, so don't take a shower tonight."
"Okay! Remember."
Lao Fang's condition improved and he was very happy. He paid the fee and left happily.
