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

"What's the difference between that and anesthetics?" Xue Jiajun said, with a slight smile in his tone.

Xue Jiajun does not dislike Chinese medicine, but he feels that Chen Yang and Liu Xi praise Chinese medicine too much and criticize Western medicine instead.

Any sedative is not good. It is also anesthesia, so what is Sleeping Powder?

So many patients undergo surgeries, and the anesthesia is so good, local anesthesia, general anesthesia, everything. At this moment, they are still trying to come up with a Sleeping Powder.

"There is still a difference."

Chen Yang smiled and said: "The commonly used local anesthesia are lidocaine, procaine, chloroprocaine, ropivacaine, bupivacaine, etc., mainly esters and amides, with esters What is connected by bond is ester anesthetic, and what is connected by amide bond is amide anesthetic..."

“General anesthesia was originally composed of ether, ammoflurane, sevoflurane, isoflurane, desflurane, nitrous oxide and other main ingredients, which inhibit the brain center and cause the body to lose pain, consciousness, reflexes, etc., thus causing to the effects of general anesthesia.”

"These drugs all have side effects. Lidocaine is clinically allergic, as are other anesthetics. Sleeping Powder is relatively safer and has almost no impact on patients."

Chen Yang said: "This time it's just acupuncture, not surgery. The effect of current anesthetics in surgery cannot be ignored. Treatment and rescue must be different for each person. Different situations require different drugs. Traditional Chinese medicine has the advantages of traditional Chinese medicine, and Western medicine has the advantages of Western medicine." Advantage."

Relatively speaking, Chen Yang's emotional intelligence and eyesight are actually not bad, so Chen Yang can really see what Xue Jiajun means.

As a modern young man who grew up with modern education, Chen Yang himself does not dislike Western medicine, nor does he criticize Western medicine. In fact, the doctors Chen Yang saw most since he was a child were Western doctors, and he had relatively little exposure to Chinese medicine.

When he gets sick or whatever, he takes Western medicine. As he grows up, Chen Yang does not think that Western medicine is bad just because he has learned Chinese medicine.

Traditional Chinese medicine has the advantages of traditional Chinese medicine, and modern medicine also has the advantages of modern medicine. They both treat diseases and save people, and they can complement each other.

Traditional Chinese medicine goes from the micro to the macro. To be precise, it takes a cross-section, starting from some subtle things, and then infers the overall situation, and first understands the overall situation clearly.

Western medicine, on the other hand, focuses on breaking points and targeting wherever there is a problem.

From this aspect, traditional Chinese medicine will definitely have shortcomings. For some problems, it may not be able to directly reach the focus of the disease, and it may be subject to certain limitations, etc.

Western medicine, on the other hand, is deficient in the overall picture. It is easy to ignore the overall connectivity and balance when looking at point-to-point.

So the two can be combined.

But the combination is only a combination of methods. You do this, I do that, and everyone has a clear division of labor.

It's like a project. If you are good at this part, you do what you are good at. I am good at this part, so I will do what I am good at, and then together we can complete the project.

However, the actual combination is a theoretical combination. It combines some concepts of traditional Chinese medicine with those of western medicine. The result of the combination is actually that western medicine guides traditional Chinese medicine. This means that western medicine absorbs some of the benefits of traditional Chinese medicine and integrates them. In the end, A half-Chinese but not Western-looking image.

Traditional Chinese medicine has lost its dialectic in clinical practice. The drugs are used according to the methods of Western medicine, and the theory of traditional Chinese medicine is abandoned. Traditional Chinese medicine doctors are gradually moving closer to new ideas.

This is also the reason why many famous traditional Chinese medicine experts are opposed to the integration of traditional Chinese and Western medicine.

Combination is possible, but it must be done objectively and scientifically, rather than done casually.

In fact, in clinical practice, there are many cases of combining traditional Chinese and Western medicine to treat diseases. Famous Chinese and Western medicine experts have participated, using both Chinese and Western medicine, and many difficult and complicated diseases have been cured.

But in the mainstream, Western medicine still dominates, while Chinese medicine is divided and medicine is separated.

"That's what you said."

Xue Jiajun smiled and said without wasting any more words with Chen Yang, "When will the treatment start?"

Now Xue Jiajun is looking forward to the treatment effect.

No matter how good it is, it still depends on the effect of the treatment.

"A session of moxibustion lasts about ten minutes, and a session of 50 sessions lasts eight or nine hours."

Chen Yang said: "And there are two acupuncture points, so the patient can eat first and then start treatment. Dr. Liu and I can take turns giving moxibustion to the patient."

It takes about fifteen minutes for a conventional moxa stick to burn out, but it usually doesn't burn out during moxibustion, and it takes about ten minutes.

Fifty strong, two acupuncture points, almost a whole day.

"I'll also shake someone from the department. It takes a long time for two acupuncture points. Both of us can't hold it." Liu Xidao.

"Then let's go eat first."

Xue Jiajun said to the patient and the patient’s mother.

It was already past ten o'clock in the morning, and it was almost eleven o'clock.

The man, mother and son went to eat, and Chen Yang and the four of them also went to have lunch together first.

When I came back after dinner, Chen Yangpei's Sleeping Powder was also ready.

After taking the medicine, he quickly fell asleep.

Xue Jiajun and Yi Tonghe checked on the side. Yi Tonghe called the patient several times and pulled the patient twice, but the patient showed no response and was completely asleep.

"Tsk, is this medicine so effective?"

Yi Tonghe asked Chen Yang with a smile: "Is this the ingredient in the old Mongolian sweat medicine?"

"I really don't know this." Chen Yang said with a smile.

Mongolian sweat medicine is mentioned in "Water Margin" and is also something found in many martial arts novels. Whether it actually exists or not is hard to say.

However, Chen Yang estimated that when Shi Naian, who wrote "Water Margin", wrote about Mongolian sweat medicine, he probably borrowed Ma Fei San or Shui Sheng San, that is, he changed the names of the original Ma Fei San and Shui Sheng San. In the past, the effect was essentially the same.

"But it should be something similar." Chen Yang smiled.

"However, the Mongolian sweat medicine is colorless and odorless, and the Sleeping Saint Powder can still be seen. There should be interpretations and changes in the novel."

The Mongolian sweat medicine in the novel is colorless and odorless, so it is difficult for people to detect it, but Shuisheng Powder and Ma Fei Powder are traditional Chinese medicine decoctions, which are easy to distinguish.

As he spoke, Chen Yang was ready to start moxibustion. There were moxibustion sticks nearby. Chen Yang lit the moxa sticks first, and then started moxibustion, starting with the Juque point.

After Chen Yang performed moxibustion on Sanzhuang, Liu Xi continued the moxibustion.

Moxibustion looks easy, but in fact it is not easy at all. You need to aim at the acupuncture points, and at the same time, you must be careful not to go too far or get close to the skin to burn the patient.

So Liu Xi said that he would shake someone else, otherwise he and Chen Yang would be unable to hold on.

You can imagine the difficulty of just holding a certain degree for a long time. It is like holding a pen and doing nothing, just maintaining that posture. It will be very painful for a long time.
