Chinese medicine: from rural hospitals to top three hospitals in Kyoto

The first patient was a little boy, who was accompanied by the child's mother.

The little boy's face was pale and he looked a little chubby.

The mother and son entered the consulting room. Chen Yang asked the child to sit down and asked, "What's wrong with the child?"

"My child always sweats easily and often catches colds," the child's mother said.

"Does your child always like to push on the quilt when sleeping at night?" Chen Yang asked.

"Dr. Liu, how did you know?" The child's mother was stunned.

The child's mother actually came here for Liu Xi, but he didn't know Liu Xi. When he entered the consulting room, he didn't know who Dr. Liu was between Chen Yang and Liu Xi.

So the child's mother mistook Chen Yang for Liu Xi.

Liu Xi is only four years older than Chen Yang. He is thirty-three this year. Judging from their appearance, the age gap between the two is not very big.

"Besides kicking under the quilt, don't you like eating very much and have a bad appetite?" Chen Yang continued to ask without explaining.

"Ah, what do you know about Dr. Liu?" The child's mother was surprised again.

Liu Xi looked at Chen Yang and narrowed his eyes.

In fact, Liu Xi and Chen Yang had already noticed it when the little boy entered the clinic. At that time, for traditional Chinese medicine doctors, consultation had already begun.

Traditional Chinese medicine looks, smells, asks and understands, and inspection ranks first, precisely because inspection comes first among the four diagnoses.

Therefore, when looking at whether a doctor is qualified, you should also pay attention to the attitude of the TCM doctor.

Generally, a well-behaved TCM doctor and a high-level TCM doctor will observe the patient from the moment he or she enters the door.

Especially when dealing with children, doctors observe more carefully, and pediatrics tests the doctor's eyesight even more.

The reason why Chen Yang could tell that the child had a poor appetite and that the child liked to push on the quilt was precisely because Chen Yang began to observe the child when he entered the door.

Liu Xi is actually the same.

Liu Xi was surprised because he didn't expect Chen Yang to see it too.

Liu Xi, who had been in contact with Chen Yang in the past few days, also knew Chen Yang's level. He was able to answer many of Chen Yang's questions, which surprised Liu Xi.

However, facing this sick child, Chen Yang was able to see the problem. This level was extraordinary, and it was really different from Chen Yang who was simply testing him before.

Chen Yang said with a smile: "Children often have insufficient spleen, which controls the limbs and muscles. The child looks puffy. A puffy child has a spleen deficiency, and a child with a spleen deficiency is prone to colds."

"There is also the child's walking, which is muddy and muddy, often with qi deficiency and dampness, and looks listless. Most of them have insufficient qi. Children with spleen deficiency and insufficient qi are prone to sweating. They like to sweat. They must push the quilt at night."

The child's mother nodded repeatedly after hearing this: "Dr. Liu, you are simply amazing. Now that you have said this, it seems that I understand my child's condition. You haven't even diagnosed the pulse yet."

For most people, they actually don’t know enough about the four diagnostics of traditional Chinese medicine, which are inspection, smelling, questioning, and incision. Most people actually only pay attention to the incision, and they only pay attention to the incision.

People who think that taking the pulse can identify all diseases tend to ignore the other three diagnoses, so that some laymen even use taking the pulse to make things difficult for traditional Chinese medicine doctors.

That is to say, you don't say anything, and you let the doctor feel your pulse to see what's wrong with you.

The most typical one is the pulse diagnosis and pregnancy test, which allows a Chinese medicine doctor to diagnose a woman's pulse and determine whether she is pregnant, thereby overturning the Chinese medicine pulse test. If the judgment is inaccurate, it means that the Chinese medicine pulse test is fake and deceptive.

This is actually a misunderstanding of Chinese medicine and a partial understanding of Chinese medicine.

Each of the four diagnoses of traditional Chinese medicine is independent, but interdependent. Once you have the skills, you can identify symptoms in each diagnosis. You can see some symptoms just by looking at them.

However, the four diagnostic methods and ginseng can ensure the maximum accuracy of syndrome differentiation without misdiagnosis and mistreatment, because the more information obtained in traditional Chinese medicine syndrome differentiation, the more accurate the syndrome differentiation will be. It is difficult for doctors to rely solely on pulse diagnosis to embarrass doctors in traditional Chinese medicine. It's called "treating patients with poor pulse".

Let’s talk about the happy pulse. The happy pulse is actually a slippery pulse in the pulse pattern. The slippery pulse does not only appear in pregnant women during pregnancy, but also in other patients.

For example, a man who has just recovered from a serious illness and is in the recovery period, and a man with relatively good physical fitness may also experience slippery pulse. Can he be said to be pregnant?

The reason why the Hua Mai is called the Xi Mai is because the pulse of pregnant women during pregnancy must be the Hua Mai. The Hua Mai combined with some pregnancy reactions such as menopause and vomiting can be diagnosed as pregnancy, not the Hua Mai. Pregnancy, there is a difference between the two.

"It is said in the Difficult Classic that if the spleen is damaged, the diet will not benefit the skin. That is to say, after the spleen and stomach are damaged, dietary nutrients cannot be fully transformed into qi and blood, and the skin and body tissues will not be supported by qi and blood. It will be full of holes, and evil winds can easily get in, and body fluids will not be able to withstand it and will easily escape, making it easy to sweat."

Chen Yang smiled and continued: "So the child doesn't like to eat, sweats a lot, is bloated and lacks energy, all because of a weak spleen and stomach."

"Oh."

The child's mother was surprised and said: "No wonder my mother-in-law asked me to take my child to see a Chinese medicine doctor. Our Chinese medicine doctors are so good. During this period, I took my child to see a lot of Western doctors, but they couldn't find any problems. I just prescribed medicine when I had a cold." Even after the cold is cured, the sweating remains the same, and the child gets sick again a few days later, always over and over again."

"The root cause of the disease has not been found. It only solves the current symptoms, which will definitely recur." Chen Yang said with a smile.

It is said that Western medicine treats the symptoms and Chinese medicine treats the root cause. This is actually the origin. However, this statement is not comprehensive. Chinese medicine not only treats the root cause, but also treats the symptoms and both symptoms and root causes.

To say that TCM treats the root cause is actually to ignore the role of TCM in acute and critical illness. TCM treats the symptoms when it is urgent, the root cause when it is slow, and treats both the symptoms and the symptoms.

While talking, Chen Yang typed up the child's condition on the computer and then wrote a prescription.

Liu Xi watched from the side, and Chen Yang's prescription only consisted of three herbs: Fangfeng, Astragalus and Atractylodes, which were the classic prescriptions from "The Effective Prescriptions of World Medical Doctors", Yupingfeng Powder.

Yupingfeng Powder replenishes qi, strengthens the surface, and stops sweating. It is indeed very symptomatic.

At the same time, Chen Yang also wrote in the doctor's instructions: "Take ginger as a guide."

The prescription Yupingfeng Powder was created by Zhu Danxi, one of the four masters of the Jin and Yuan Dynasties. Astragalus can replenish qi and solidify the surface, strengthen the defense qi, and the defense qi is the defense force. The yingwei in traditional Chinese medicine is actually similar to the human immune system. Wei Zheng It means defense, defense.

Wei Qi is the barrier of human skin, just like the Great Wall.

Enhancing Wei Qi, that is, enhancing the body's immunity, can fundamentally prevent the invasion of evil spirits and prevent children from catching colds in the future. Moreover, ginger can also enhance the efficacy of this prescription.
