The place where the pulse is cut is no more than a square inch, so the pulse is also called the Cunkou pulse, which has three parts: Fencun, Guan and Chi."
"For adults, use three fingers to locate the pulse. First, use the middle finger to press high and diagonally at the same level. Use the pads of your fingers to touch the pulse. Pay attention to the spacing of the three fingers. Make appropriate adjustments according to the height of the patient."
"In children, the cunkou pulse area is narrow and cannot accommodate three fingers. You can use the "one finger (thumb) method to determine the pulse" without subdividing into three parts;"
"Children under three years old are almost unable to take pulses, so fingerprints are used instead of taking pulses."
"And the use of finger power can be divided into three types."
"Start with gentle force and touch the skin to float, which is called "lifting";
"Then press with moderate force until the muscles are reached, which is called "finding";
"Press again and again until the muscles and bones sink, which is called "pressing".
"According to the needs of the disease, you can lift, search, press or touch repeatedly in the opposite order to slowly experience it."
Mr. Qin talked about three different fingering methods for people of different age groups and three different ways of exerting force. Hearing this, Sun Hao felt dizzy. Oh my God, the preparations before the official diagnosis was started. Just the use of one finger and
There are so many things to pay attention to when it comes to strength. I can’t help but sigh. It is often said that Chinese medicine is profound and profound. These four words describe it very aptly!
"Boy, are you dizzy?" Mr. Qin joked when he saw Sun Hao's appearance.
Sun Hao chewed on the pen holder and nodded cutely.
Mr. Qin smiled and continued: "This pulse cut should be done on both hands completely. Do you know why?"
Sun Hao still shook his head cutely: "Master, it seems that you didn't cut both hands?"
"Yes, did you notice that I always cut on the same side?" Mr. Qin continued to ask.
"That's not true, there is left and right." Sun Hao's observation was still careful.
"Well, that's good, because I have accumulated some experience. As soon as the patient comes in, I have a rough judgment on the patient's condition through other methods. Normally, there is no need to cut both hands. However, if you want to learn, you must understand
, the difference between taking pulses with the left and right hands." Mr. Qin explained.
The more Sun Hao listened, the more interesting he became, and he kept nodding.
Mr. Qin continued: "Although the pulse is very short, as I just said, it has three parts: Cun, Guan and Chi, and each part has three periods of floating, middle and sinking, which are called three parts and nine periods."
Ah, such a small place and so finely divided, Sun Hao couldn't help but open his eyes wide.
"The three parts of Cun, Guan and Chi correspond to different internal organs respectively. In the left hand, Cun corresponds to the heart, Guan corresponds to the liver, and Chi corresponds to the kidneys (kidney water); in the left hand, the heart, liver and kidneys;"
"In the right hand, cun corresponds to the lungs, guan corresponds to the spleen, and chi corresponds to the kidney (vital door) of the right hand."
Mr. Qin knew that this part of the content was very cumbersome, so he spoke very slowly word for word. When he was speaking, in order to prevent Sun Hao from being confused, he walked around him and hit him from time to time. After each section, he would not stop talking.
Forgot to ask Sun Hao how he felt.
In this way, the two masters and apprentices, in this relaxed atmosphere, one poured, the other sucked, the other taught, and the other learned, bit by bit, slowly engraved what was in Mr. Qin's mind into Sun Hao's mind.
Fortunately, Sun Hao has the ability to remember what he hears. He has memorized all the traditional Chinese medicine knowledge that would make ordinary people confused after listening to Mr. Qin's lecture once.
However, remembering is not the key, more is practice!
"Okay, I'll stop here today. You can read the book and implement the details one by one. In this way, I believe you can reach a higher level when you touch the patient's pulse tomorrow." Mr. Qin ended today's lecture and arranged
road.
Today is the first time that Mr. Qin teaches orthodox traditional Chinese medicine knowledge. It is different from the Sun family's medical skills. It is more detailed, more sophisticated, and relatively boring. However, as an 80-year-old man, Mr. Qin remembers this professional knowledge very clearly.
, which made Sun Hao admire him very much.
"Master, you are truly worthy of your reputation as a master of traditional Chinese medicine!" Sun Hao admired him from the bottom of his heart. He stood up and bowed deeply to Mr. Qin: "Thank you, master, for your teachings, which allowed me to truly experience the magic and profoundness of traditional Chinese medicine!"
Mr. Qin smiled slightly and said, "Okay, I'll take a rest and you can read quietly by yourself. Tomorrow, we will go back to the Traditional Chinese Medicine Department of the hospital for a consultation." After saying that, Mr. Qin sat on the Taishi chair, closed his eyes and rested his mind.
Sun Hao followed his instructions, sat in a bright place by the window, opened "Pulse Study", and quietly began to study it carefully.
After introducing the origin and method of pulse-taking in "Pulseology", it begins to introduce the clinical application of pulse-taking.
First, the doctor must understand the normal pulse condition.
A normal pulse is called "Ping pulse" or "Constant pulse". It beats about 70-80 times per minute, has a regular rhythm, and is neither thick nor thin, neither floating nor sinking, neither strong nor weak.
However, it should be noted that even normal pulse conditions often vary with seasons, age, gender, physical constitution, etc. If you do not pay attention to these differences, you may be misdiagnosed.
For example, in spring, summer, and autumn, the pulse is mostly floating and has strong pulse; in winter, the pulse is mostly deep and deep. The younger the age, the faster the pulse, the pulse of young adults is strong and powerful, and the pulse of the elderly is weak; tall people have
Depending on how long your connections are, a short person will have shorter connections, a thin person will have more floating connections, and a fat person will have more sinking connections;
...
If opposite pulse patterns are found, such as floating pulses in winter, floating pulses in fat people, and sinking pulses in thin people, etc., it indicates abnormal pulse conditions. Common abnormal pulse conditions include the following:
The floating pulse is a superficial pulse at the location where the pulse appears. It can be felt easily when pressed lightly, but becomes weaker when pressed harder. Generally speaking, it indicates that the disease is superficial. A floating and strong pulse indicates superficial excess, and a floating but weak pulse indicates superficial deficiency.
.
The Shen pulse is a type of pulse that is deep in the area where the pulse appears. It cannot be picked up lightly, but can only be seen by pressing it hard. Generally, it is a symptom of internal syndrome. If it is heavy and strong, it is a syndrome of internal syndrome. If it is heavy and weak, it is a syndrome of internal deficiency.
Late pulse means the pulse is slow, less than 60 times per minute. It is mostly caused by cold syndrome, because cold can slow down the blood flow. A slow and strong pulse is a syndrome of cold accumulation, and a slow and weak pulse is a syndrome of yang deficiency.
Count the pulse. The pulse comes quickly, more than 90 times per minute, and comes and goes quickly. Most of the pulses are caused by heat syndrome, because heat can accelerate the blood flow. If the pulse is frequent and strong, it is excess heat syndrome, and if it is frequent and weak, it is deficiency heat syndrome.
Deficient pulse means that all three pulses are weak when pressed and move faintly under the fingers. It is a general term for all weak pulses. It is a symptom of deficiency syndrome, mainly due to qi deficiency or qi and blood deficiency syndrome.
The strong pulse means that all three pulses are strong when pressed, and the pulse is strong and solid. It is the general term for all powerful pulses. It is a sign of solid pulse, indicating that evil qi is strong but righteous qi is not deficient.
...
Finally, the article concludes by quoting the words of Sun Simiao, a famous doctor in the Tang Dynasty: "The great cause of medicine is to understand the pulse of the husband. If you don't understand the way deeply, how can you be a doctor?"
This shows that pulse condition plays an important role in the diagnosis process of traditional Chinese medicine.
Sun Hao was sitting by the window. The sunlight came in and shone on his body and the profile of his face while he was reading quietly. He looked exceptionally handsome and calm. He was completely immersed in the description of pulse knowledge in the book.
, before I knew it, the sun had set, and the afternoon passed quietly.
