Ma Baoku slapped his thigh, his face full of bitterness:

"Alas, who wouldn't be! Doctor Chen, to be honest, Eda (my father) has three brothers in this generation, and he is the second oldest. My eldest uncle became a monk before he even got married; my youngest uncle had six daughters, who is his youngest son. So, Eda is the only one in our family who carried on the family line and gave birth to me. I was married to my uncle for seven years before we had Xiaobao, our only child. I have spoiled him since he was a child. I was afraid that he would melt if I held him in my mouth, and I was afraid that he would fall if I held him in my hands."

Qingshan sighed in his heart as he listened. The idea of ​​favoring boys over girls is still deeply rooted in the minds of traditional Chinese people. Just because they want a boy, how many female fetuses are aborted in black clinics every year, and how many baby girls are abandoned by their biological parents. Such human tragedies may only be eliminated through the efforts of several generations.

"Who knew the unexpected would happen? When Xiaobao was three years old, he was playing in the yard when he suddenly started foaming at the mouth, fell to the ground and convulsed. He then passed out. Terrified, Eda rushed Xiaobao to the county hospital. After emergency treatment, the child woke up, but the doctor said Xiaobao had epilepsy, which was very difficult to treat, so he told us to take him to a larger hospital."

"Since then, my family and I have neglected our work and taken Xiaobao to seek medical treatment everywhere. In the past four years, we have visited almost every top-tier hospital in China, but no hospital has been able to cure Xiaobao's illness. Four years ago, Xiaobao only had an attack once a month, but now he takes a lot of epilepsy medicine, but he has an attack almost every day. Don't you think that the treatment is getting worse?"

Qingshan looked at Ma Xiaobao's skinny, pale face and sighed inwardly:

No wonder the child's development was so poor; it turned out he had epilepsy, and judging by the severity of the condition, it was already a severe case. In her previous life, Qingshan had never heard Ma Baoku and his wife mention their child, so they must have died young. With her around in this life, she was determined to save the child's life!

Qingshan reached out to feel Ma Xiaobao's pulse, then looked at his tongue coating and the whites of his eyes, then picked up his pen and began to write a medical record.

Epilepsy was recorded as early as in the "Yellow Emperor's Internal Classic" more than 2,000 years ago. Traditional Chinese medicine believes that the occurrence of epilepsy is caused by wind, fire, phlegm, and blood stasis, which lead to imbalance of qi in the heart, liver, spleen, and kidneys, and liver and kidney yin deficiency. Yin deficiency leads to hyperactivity of yang, and hyperactivity of yang leads to internal liver wind, and wind and fire help to cause problems. Dingxian Xifeng has become a common method for treating epilepsy.

Qingshan planned to treat Xiaobao with acupuncture combined with wind-clearing and sweat-inducing drugs.

Qingshan asked Ma Baoku to carry Xiaobao to the chaise longue, take off his clothes and lie down. She washed her hands, took out nine needles and started to give Xiaobao acupuncture.

Qingshan selected four acupuncture points: Dazhui, Yaoqi, Shuigou, and Houxi, and then inserted the needles in that order: Baihui, Taodao, Jiuwei, Neiguan, Shenmen, Fenglong, Jinsuo, and Taichong. Because the child was young and his underlying condition was so poor, Qingshan used a little spiritual energy to help him recover. By the time all the acupuncture points were completed, Xiaobao was covered in a light layer of cold sweat.

Throughout the acupuncture treatment, Ma Baoku and his wife didn't dare breathe, fearing to disturb Dr. Chen. Only when they saw a faint smile on their son's face did they breathe a sigh of relief. Liu Chunhua, tears welling in her eyes, quickly found a clean piece of clothing in her bag for Xiaobao to wear.

Qingshan put away the needle, returned to the table and began to write a prescription.

Centipede Star Wind Powder is mainly used to treat tetanus, but Xuan Huizi left behind an improved version of Centipede Star Wind Powder, which can promote blood circulation, remove blood stasis, calm wind and calm epilepsy, and is very effective for childhood epilepsy. However, the medicine must be made with the golden-headed centipede from Shu, otherwise the efficacy will be greatly reduced.

Qingshan picked up a pen, wrote down the prescription, and handed it to Ma Baoku.

"Brother Ma, give the prescription to my apprentice to boil the medicine. Drink it once a day. I promise that Xiaobao will not get sick again during the period of taking the medicine."

"Oh, you're such a master!"
