Chapter 86
The onlookers held their breaths and watched the tiny needle pierce the child's delicate skin and sink into the fingertips little by little.
For some reason, they suddenly felt their scalps tingling.
The people queuing up behind didn't know what happened at the wooden shed, so someone shouted and asked, "What happened?"
"There is a child unconscious, and the young doctor is treating the child."
"Then. Can the doctor cure it? "
" Being in a coma is not a trivial matter. Why don't you show it to Dr. Wu next to
you? "
"..."
The discussion in the crowd behind did not affect it at all. Xu Yi. At this moment, he had already inserted filiform needles into all the Shixuan points.
Wu Guanshan, who was standing next to him, was a little surprised to see how steady his hand was and the needle did not shake in his hand.
To be able to insert an acupuncture so stably would not be possible within a few years.
Xu Yi frowned and observed the child's face while paying attention to the child's breathing.
Suddenly, Xu Yi's slightly drooped eyelids lifted slightly.
Then a weak cry sounded.
The surroundings seemed to be quiet, except for the intermittent cry of the child. He opened his eyes, and when he woke up, he burst into tears and began to be afraid of looking for anyone.
"Wake up." Xu Yi breathed a sigh of relief.
The young couple finally recovered from their confusion, and their child woke up.
His wife had been suppressing her fear just now, but when the child woke up, his whole body was gone, his legs were weak and he fell to the ground.
Her husband wanted to pick her up, but seeing the child crying, he had no choice but to carefully pick up the crying child and comfort her softly over and over again.
On the side, Wu Guanshan, who saw this scene with a smile on his face, said to Xu Yi: "'The evil disease screams, curse and go away, moxibustion hand to remove one point of claw nail on the ten fingers, a ghost town.' Having thought of using acupuncture at Shixuan points in such a short period of time, Doctor Xu seems to be very skilled in "Essential Prescriptions for Emergency Preparations." [Note 1]
Xu Yi stood up and said to him: "Shi Xuan is unconscious." "Xuan Xuan, I just thought of this method out of desperation."
"This acupuncture at Shixuan point is indeed a good way to awaken the unconscious." Wu Guanshan did not deny Xu Yi because of Xu Yi's modesty. Ability to become familiar with acupuncture.
Then, he asked Xu Yi why he had all ten fingers pricked with needles.
Xu Yi said calmly: "Although yin and yang are different and divided into left and right, he is still in a bun. He is too young, and his brain was hit and caused coma, so he cannot be judged by ordinary methods. The purpose of stimulating the ten fingers is to wake the child up as soon as possible. "
He is worried that if a child is in a coma for too long, the damage to his brain will be greater.
If he judged correctly, the child was unconscious due to a brief stroke caused by hitting the back of his head.
Fortunately, the young couple delivered their child in time. If it had been any later, it would have been dangerous.
The matter is not over yet. Although the child has woken up, there is blood on the back of his head and he still needs attention.
Xu Yi looked at the young couple and said to them: "Please come with me."
They returned to the long case with their children in their arms.
After the child cried, his mental state was very poor. He lay down listlessly in his mother's arms. His two little hands nervously grasped the clothes on his mother's chest, unwilling to let go.
His father raised his hand and patted his back gently, with panic and fear still in his eyes.
"If the doctor hadn't taken action, my son would have been in trouble." The child's father bowed deeply to Xu Yi.
Xu Yi said: "It's a fluke. This syncope is dangerous, but you delivered it in time."
The child's mother's eyes were red, and she was deeply grateful to Xu Yi.
"Thank you, doctor, for saving my son..."
Xu Yi told them not to do this. He was the doctor at the free clinic today. No matter who came, he would do his best as long as he could treat the disease.
Seeing that they were all concerned about the children in their arms, Xu Yi didn't say anything more and wrote down a pediatric prescription for promoting blood circulation and removing blood stasis.
Xu Yi recorded the dosage of the medicinal materials used in this prescription in points. Compared with other prescriptions for children, the dosage is smaller.
Not only that, Xu Yi also told the two of them that the medicinal soup should be taken separately after decoction. If it feels bitter, you can take it with sugar beans, but you cannot add honey water to take it together.
After Xu Yi explained the precautions to them one by one, he added: "The wound on the back of the head should not be touched by water for a few days, and do not rub it. It will disappear naturally in a few days."
After hearing this, the parents of the child were very worried . Nodding.
Then, Xu Yi handed the prescription to A Xu, who took the prescription and made a gesture of asking them.
The two of them stood up with their children in their arms, and after saluting Xu Yi again, they followed A Xu in small steps.
A Xu took the prescription and handed it to the schoolboy waiting behind him. The schoolboy was stunned when he saw the amount of medicine written on it.
He asked A Xu doubtfully: "Dr. Xu, did you write correctly?"
A Xu looked at him and said firmly: "Mr. Lang will not write wrong."
The schoolboy: "..." Well, although he already knew that this doctor Xu The doctor is great, but you, a little kid, are not afraid of getting off your tongue when you speak big words.
He cursed in his heart, but did not dare to show it. He took the prescription and ran to Xu Yi to make sure that the amount of medicine used was correct before returning.
He secretly glanced at A Xu next to him and saw that A Xu was also staring at him.
The whole person became even more uncomfortable, so he could only bite the bullet, read the prescription seriously, mix the medicinal ingredients, and hand them to the waiting couple.
As soon as the couple left, the people in the queue at the back looked at each other. After hesitating for a while, someone stood up from the original queue and walked over to Xu Yi.
Gradually, after the first one, there was a second one...
Seeing this, other people also lined up curiously.
At this time, Xing Yuesen, who was busy serving porridge, was distracted and glanced at the free clinic not far from the porridge shed. Seeing that there was no one in front of Xu Yi, there were already several people.
He smiled and continued to concentrate on scooping a spoonful of sticky rice porridge for the people standing in front of him.
The rice porridge prepared by the Xing family is mainly rice, with a little bean sprouts added, so you can smell the aroma of rice and beans.
The people queuing up at the back smelled the rice porridge being cooked in front of them, and the aroma wafted far away. It was a cold day, and the smell became even more tempting.
...
"Doctor, please take a look quickly. I have a tumor. Can it be removed?"
At this time, sitting in front of Xu Yi was an old woman who looked to be in her forties.
The old woman was wearing neat old clothes, with a dark brown narrow-sleeved coat on the outside and a fog-blue bellyband around her waist.
Although she is old, she wears a high dome bun and a red scarf. There are two carved wooden hairpins on the left side and a purple silk flower on the right side.
The tumor grew on her raised temples. If you don't take your hair away, you can't see clearly.
Xu Yi asked the old woman to spread her hair further.
Seeing that the tumor was dark red and rough on the surface, he asked Ah Jin to take out the handkerchief he had brought.
Xu Yi took out a handkerchief, wrapped it around his finger, and then gently pressed the tumor.
With just a light touch, I felt that the tumor was hard and the surface was rougher than it looked. The hard part above is dark red with yellowish-brown scabs.
Xu Yi frowned and asked, "Grandma, did you pick it?"
"..." The old woman who was replaced as Grandma twitched her mouth slightly, but when she thought of the tumor on her forehead, she became upset and agitated, and her chest heaved. , "I went to see the doctor before, and the doctor used wood chips to scrape it off. But it hurt my body so much that I almost died from that smelly old man."
She finished cursing the thing that had caused her pain for several days. Doctor, then she thought sadly, if this young doctor didn't know how to treat, she would go back to Doctor Wu's team.
"Doctor Xu, do you know what this tumor is?" the old woman asked.
Xu Yi said, "Hold out your hand."
The old woman thought for a moment and stretched out her hand in front of Xu Yi.
Xu Yi checked her pulse and asked her to open her mouth. After hearing this, the old woman followed the instructions one by one. She was very familiar with this process. The doctors had treated her in this way every time she had seen her.
But there was something different about this young doctor. After reading this, he asked her many more questions.
"Does this tumor hurt on weekdays?"
"No." "
Does it itch?"
"It doesn't itch. I just want to scratch it occasionally, but it feels uncomfortable if I don't."
"How long has it been there?"
" It's been about a few months, and it seems to have grown out suddenly during the summer harvest. I didn't care about it at all, but it looks extremely unattractive. "
She loves beauty so much that she combs her hair with pear blossom balm every day. , this pear blossom balm was very expensive, she searched elsewhere and saved up to buy it every few months.
If she hadn't used the money to buy pear blossom balm this time, she wouldn't have come to the free clinic to see a doctor.
After Xu Yi asked these questions, he said: "Your coating is thin and white, and your pulse is deep and stringy. This wart is neither painful nor itchy. It is a combination of heat and blood stasis. I will prescribe you a prescription of Taohong Siwu Decoction. After you take it back, take it." Once the warts shrivel and fall off, the medicine can be stopped."
After that, he began to write a prescription for the old woman.
The heat and blood stasis knots he mentioned are common warts in modern terminology.
There are various reasons for the growth of this wart, some of which are contagious, and some of which are malignant. In the dialectical theory of traditional Chinese medicine, this common wart can also be classified into several categories.
For example, the syndrome of dampness-heat and blood stasis, the syndrome of wind-heat and poison accumulation, and the old woman's syndrome of mutual combination of heat and blood stasis.
The Taohong Siwu Decoction prescribed by Xu Yi is one of the key prescriptions for regulating menstruation and comes from "Yizong Jinjian". The prescription is made from Siwu Decoction plus peach kernel and safflower. These two herbs are both for activating blood circulation and removing blood stasis. They are combined with the four medicinal herbs of Siwu Decoction: Angelica sinensis, Chuanxiong rhizome, white peony root and rehmannia glutinosa. It not only activates blood circulation, but also nourishes and replenishes blood. , anti-fatigue. [Note 2]
Therefore, this prescription is also a very good prescription for regulating menstruation.
Furthermore, warts in old women are caused by heat and blood stasis in the body. You can take this soup to promote the elimination of heat and blood stasis.
After Xu Yi wrote out the prescription, he planned to hand it to A Xu who was beside him.
He paused and thought of something to remind him: "Grandma, you should eat less hot food when taking medicine."
"I understand." The old woman nodded in agreement.
Xu Yi thought for a moment and then said: "It may take a month or two for this wart to fall off. You have to be patient and take medicine."
When the old woman heard this, her eyes lit up and she asked happily: "Will it leave scars?"
"Yes. It will leave a few scars." Xu Yi watched her expression change and added, "You can grind black beans into fine powder, add warm water to make a cream, and apply it on the scars,"
this black beans are mung beans . , in Meng Shen's "Dietotherapeutic Materia Medica", it is mentioned that mung beans can be "cooked to drink, quench thirst, remove floating wind, increase strength, and moisturize the skin and flesh." [Note 3]
It not only relieves summer heat and appetizes, but is suitable for all ages. As a beauty supplement, the skin can clear away heat and the meat can detoxify. Eating more mung beans has many benefits.
Xu Yi asked her to cook porridge with black beans and add a little salt.
Now, the old woman was finally relieved.
She stood up happily, said good luck to Xu Yi, and followed A Xu to the back to grab medicine with a smile on her face.
When the people behind saw her leaving, they immediately stepped forward to salute Xu Yi.
Xu Yi asked him to sit down and asked him if he felt uncomfortable.
When asking questions, Xu Yi looked at this man with his eyes, seeing that he was wearing coarse short-brown clothes, but he was about thirty years old, and his hands were covered with thick calluses.
Xu Yi's eyes moved upward and fell on his ordinary face, but with a simple and honest smile, and there was a little more tenderness in his eyes.
Qing Zhuang whispered: "In the past few months, I have had severe pain in my lower back every night. Sometimes I wake up from the pain when I turn over in bed." After
Xu Yi heard what he said, he asked him to stretch out his hand.
In traditional Chinese medicine, "looking", "smelling", "asking" and "cutting" are the most important aspects of treating a doctor. Although "cutting" comes last, it also plays an important part in the process of seeing a doctor.
Only by combining the other three steps can we better diagnose the pathogenesis and use drugs rationally.
Xu Yi took Qingzhuang's pulse and found that his pulse was loose and tight. Then he looked at his tongue and saw that his tongue was dark and fat, with white and greasy coating.
So, Xu Yi asked him to stand up and turn towards him.
Qingzhuang didn't know why, but he still instinctively obeyed the doctor's request.
He stood up and turned his back towards Xu Yi, and a hand was placed on his waist.
Then, Xu Yi's voice sounded: "Do you feel pain here?"
After he said this, he put a little force on his wrist and heard a muffled sound from his bones.
Along with the muffled sound, there was a sudden feeling of pain. The unprepared Qing Zhuang gasped fiercely and shouted "it hurts" uncontrollably. Before his voice could finish, he quickly shouted "ouch" again. Make a sound.
After shouting, Qing Zhuang blushed with embarrassment.
Fortunately, Xu Yi did not continue to make him cry out in pain. He stopped his hand and washed it with water while talking to him: "You have been suffering from cold, evil and dampness for a long time. Have you ever injured your waist in the past?
" Yes." Qingzhuang nodded.
As a tenant with his back to the sky and his face to the ground, his waist is always bent, and it doesn't take long to straighten up.
Xu Yi nodded: "This is a long-term stagnation of qi, which condenses in the waist, legs and Taiyang meridians. It is a Taiyang-Taiyin syndrome."
In traditional Chinese medicine, the Taiyang-Taiyin syndrome is a syndrome of lumbar disc herniation.
Young people who work in one position all year round are more likely to suffer from bruises on their waists.
Xu Yi prescribed Ephedra Decoction and Fuzi Lizhong Decoction for him. This prescription can warm the body and dispel cold. It can relieve the pain first. After the first phase of the medicinal decoction is finished, he can switch to other prescriptions.
For example, there is a common prescription that is very effective, which is Guizhi and Ginseng Decoction.
It's a pity that Xu Yi can privately prescribe him a month's supply of the former prescription, but not the latter prescription.
With the young and strong financial resources, I am afraid that there is no money to cure this sun-taiyin disease.
Not to mention spending money on medical treatment, the young man cannot rest even while taking the medicine. However, the disease is afraid of overwork. Even if the pain is gone after taking the medicine, the remaining symptoms will still relapse if he continues to work like this.
Xu Yi sighed and wrote down two prescriptions for him.
……
at the same time.
On the main street of the county town, Uncle Liu drove an ox cart and took several members of his family to the City God's Temple in great excitement.
Uncle Liu's wife, Mrs. Wang, was sitting on the lower right side of him, looking around the street curiously. Seeing that the county town was so prosperous, she felt a little uncomfortable.
Wang had not been to the city for a long time. Looking at the old women setting up stalls selling food on both sides of the street, and then looking at her, an old woman who knew nothing, she lowered her head uncomfortably.
Next to her, two men of about the same age were sitting.
One is her eldest son and the other is her younger son.
To the left of the eldest son, there was a younger woman sitting, beautiful in appearance, less than thirty years old. This woman is Wang's eldest daughter-in-law, Lin.
This Lin is from the same village. After marrying Uncle Liu's son, she gave birth to three children. This time, there was also a four-year-old child who came with her, whom she gave birth to.
A group of them arrived outside the prosperous City God's Temple.
Looking at the sea of people in front of them, they all looked shocked and confused.
There are too many people!
There are dozens of families in their village, and together they are not as many as the people we saw today.
The eldest son looked at Uncle Liu: "Dad, what should we do now?"
"What should we do?" Uncle Liu puffed his beard and stared at his son, then looked at his wife and the others, then breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Okay, now If the ox cart cannot enter the Chenghuang Temple, please come down and park the ox cart over there."
He pointed to where many vehicles of all kinds had stopped.
Seeing this, Uncle Liu urged them anxiously: "Get off the bus quickly, get off the bus quickly."
If it were later, he didn't know if he would be able to get in line with them.
