After asking a few questions, Yun Heng released the old man's wrist and checked his tongue coating. When checking the tongue coating, Yun Heng could smell that the old man had a strong breath and the tongue coating was thick and white.
"How's the diet?"
"Before coming to the hospital, I had a very good appetite and ate a lot. But recently, I have lost my appetite and have eaten less. I haven't eaten well in the past few days."
"Squad leader, do you suspect it's a case of food poisoning?" Wang Jibo asked.
"It's not simply a case of food damage. It's a long-term diet that's biased towards meat and fish, poor nutrition, and a lack of exercise, which has led to the congestion of hot phlegm. This condition isn't short-term, but long-term, and it's only gradually worsening from mild to severe. Before the cough and wheezing occur, the patient should have walked a little more and breathed a little more, right?"
While talking about Yun Heng, he asked Li Yongxue.
"Yes, aren't all fat people like this?" Li Yongxue nodded and said with a smile.
"Uncle should exercise more. If he is too fat, there will be many problems." Feng Xingping said.
"Dad, did you hear that?"
Li Yongxue said to the old man with a wry smile.
The old man said nothing.
"Doctor Yun, is there any solution?"
Li Yongxue asked his father, and then said to Yun Heng: "My dad can't even sleep well at this rate, let alone exercise."
"have!"
Yun Heng pondered for a moment and said, "Half a pound of rhubarb, divided into several doses."
"Rhubarb, half a pound?"
Before Li Yongxue could say anything, Feng Xingping was frightened.
Rhubarb, another half pound?
Two hundred and fifty grams?
"rhubarb?"
Li Yongxue didn't quite understand and asked, "It looks like a laxative, right?"
"Rhubarb can purge heat and toxins, break up stagnation, promote blood circulation, and clear the interior and exterior, thus having the effect of clearing away obstructions and removing filth."
Feng Xingping explained to Li Yongxue.
"oh!"
Li Yongxue nodded. He only knew a little about this medicine, not much, and had no idea about 500 grams.
Sometimes the more of an amateur you are, the better it is, because you don’t understand anything, so you don’t know whether it is good or bad, bad or not, or whether there will be any consequences. Instead, you appear to be very calm.
Instead, Feng Xingping, the expert, was frightened.
Rhubarb is very cold, non-toxic, bitter and sweet in taste, and can purge heat and toxins, break up stagnation, promote blood circulation, and promote bowel movements. It has the effect of dredging blockages and clearing away filth, and its medicinal effects are very strong. It is called the general medicine in traditional Chinese medicine.
Among the several prescriptions Feng Xingping had written before, one of them actually contained rhubarb, but the dosage was only 13 grams. Yun Heng suggested using rhubarb, and Feng Xingping also thought it made sense, but only half a pound?
This dosage is a bit too scary. What if the patient suffers from diarrhea?
Seeing that Li Yongxue didn't react, Feng Xingping hurriedly said to Yun Heng, "Doctor Yun, how about this, let's go outside and discuss it again?"
"Alright!"
Yun Heng nodded.
"Mr. Li, Dr. Yun and I will discuss this further and let you know when we've reached an agreement."
"Okay, thank you for your help, Director Feng." Li Yongxue nodded. He had no objection. He still trusted Feng Xingping's character.
After walking out of the special care ward and a little further away, Feng Xingping said to Yun Heng, "Doctor Yun, isn't half a pound of rhubarb a bit too much?"
"If the dosage is insufficient, there will be no effect."
Yun Heng explained, "The patient's chest tightness and wheezing didn't develop overnight. It's like a range hood. Over time, more and more grease accumulates inside the pipes, almost clogging them. At this point, the range hood will definitely not be able to vent air properly, and cleaning it will require a lot of effort."
"The same applies to patients. The dosage must be large. If it's insufficient, it's like flushing with water, with no effect. Only a large dose can be effective immediately and completely expel all the accumulated grease, dirt, and filth. Only then can the patient feel refreshed."
"Squad leader, your words are so vivid."
Wang Jibo looked at Yun Heng with admiration in his eyes.
The squad leader is worthy of being the squad leader. During the training class, Yun Heng saved the day many times. He was able to take on a group of them alone and was much better than Director Feng.
"What Doctor Yun said does make sense, but..."
Feng Xingping was at a loss for words to refute.
After listening to Yun Heng's explanation, Feng Xingping felt that what Yun Heng said made sense. However, Feng Xingping had never used such a large dose of rhubarb, let alone heard of it, so he couldn't help feeling a little uneasy.
"Director Feng!"
Wang Jiebo reached out and pulled Feng Xingping, and the two of them walked a few steps away.
"Director Feng, if you hesitate to make a decision, you will suffer the consequences. Yun Heng is very capable and has Mr. Qu and Mr. Ji behind him. What are you afraid of? If you fail to take responsibility at this time, you will miss the opportunity." Wang Jibo reminded in a low voice.
"You kid."
Feng Xingping smiled bitterly: "I didn't expect that I didn't see it as clearly as you do. Fine, then use it."
