The illness of this female student from Xiangzhou University of Traditional Chinese Medicine was not serious, so Yun Heng also wanted to use this illness as an opportunity to teach the students.
A person's mentality is always changing with status, position, knowledge and other aspects. Sometimes the person himself may not even feel it, and it is a subtle influence.
Yun Heng's original personality was actually the kind of person who didn't care about anything that didn't concern him. He also acted independently. He read books alone and went to the library alone. Except for a few people with whom he had a particularly good relationship, Yun Heng was too lazy to socialize with others.
But as he has been in West Asia Hospital for such a long time and his level has been constantly improving, Yun Heng's sense of responsibility and mission has gradually increased a lot.
Especially those around Yun Heng, such as Ji Fengwen, Qu Tongwen, Ma Tiequan, Liang Wanming and others, are all people with great sense of justice. In such an environment, Yun Heng's change is naturally inevitable.
This time, as the team leader, he brought a group of younger classmates with him. Although there were students from other schools nearby, Yun Heng still subconsciously felt that this was a good opportunity.
After all, in the hospital, Yun Heng has become accustomed to testing and teaching other doctors.
"May I have your name?"
Yun Heng asked the male classmates from Sichuan and Shu.
"Doctor Yun, my name is Zhang Mingfei, and I'm from Sichuan University of Traditional Chinese Medicine."
The male student was instantly excited.
In the eyes of this group of classmates, Yun Heng is an idol. When Yun Heng asked for their names, few people could remain calm.
"Just now, Zhang Xueyan..."
Yun Heng paused and said, "Zhang Xueyan is from our Zhongzhou University of Traditional Chinese Medicine, and this classmate Zhang Mingfei is from Sichuan University of Traditional Chinese Medicine. They both analyzed vertigo from the perspectives of Western medicine and Traditional Chinese Medicine respectively."
"Although modern medicine considers vertigo to be a symptom of multiple diseases with complex etiologies, in Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), vertigo is recognized and treated as a disease. There are significant differences between TCM and modern medicine in many aspects, including the classification of symptoms."
Zhang Xueyan lowered her head slightly. She already knew what mistake she had just made.
In modern medicine, vertigo is just one of the symptoms of many diseases. It can be said that there is no such disease as vertigo. Dizziness and vertigo are just symptoms. However, in traditional Chinese medicine, there is a classification of vertigo as a disease.
Yun Heng continued, "In Traditional Chinese Medicine, vertigo is understood and treated as a symptom, which has led to a unique diagnosis and treatment model. For example, the Yellow Emperor's Classic of Internal Medicine states that 'all wind-induced vertigo and dizziness are related to the liver' and 'insufficient marrow will cause brain spinning and tinnitus.'"
"Student Zhang Mingfei just said very little. The causes and pathogenesis of vertigo are nothing more than deficiency and excess. Deficiency syndromes are often caused by yin deficiency, internal liver wind, essence deficiency, and insufficient marrow. This insufficient marrow sea corresponds to the statement in the Yellow Emperor's Classic of Internal Medicine that 'insufficient marrow sea causes brain spinning and tinnitus.'"
"We are all students of the College of Traditional Chinese Medicine. What we are learning now is theoretical, but in actual diagnosis and treatment, we must understand the relationship between textbooks and clinical practice."
Yun Heng's tone rose considerably as he spoke: "I want to warn all my classmates here: beginners, especially in the early stages of medical studies, must keep their minds focused. They can't be too ambitious, nor can they learn too many things. If you are interested in Western medicine, then focus on studying Western medicine. If you are interested in Traditional Chinese Medicine, then focus on studying Traditional Chinese Medicine. It is a big taboo for beginners to study both Traditional Chinese Medicine and Western medicine..."
"Because medicine is a very complex field, even some experienced doctors sometimes find it difficult to distinguish between traditional Chinese medicine and Western medicine. For beginners, it is even more difficult. We often learn a little here and a little there, and often we ourselves get confused."
As a graduate of a traditional Chinese medicine university, and a graduate of a specialty of integrated Chinese and Western medicine, Yun Heng now has to admit that this specialty is a very deceptive one.
The reason why Yun Heng applied for this specialty was because the admission score was relatively low, and he didn't feel much difference when he was in school. But after entering the hospital and having a panel, and with a deeper understanding of traditional Chinese medicine, Yun Heng became more aware of the pitfalls of this specialty.
This specialty teaches both Chinese and Western medicine. For beginners, especially medical students who are new to medicine, what they learn in school is actually very important.
If medical students can enter a hospital after graduation, it can be said that this is the most suitable career for their major. They study medicine and then go to the hospital for further study, and what they learned in school before can be used.
Most people should have the feeling that what they learned in school is often deeply remembered. Even if they didn’t study very well, they can often remember it as long as they come into contact with it after graduation. Some things are deep in their memory, and the more they are used, the deeper the memory.
For medical students, when they first start to learn about medicine in college, some people are initially very interested in this major due to curiosity and other reasons, and they will also learn some things. These things are the students' first impression of medicine.
It's like a blank piece of paper that is suddenly exposed to these things, and then these things are printed on the blank paper. When you go to the hospital, these basic cognitions may be deeply rooted.
Whether you are studying traditional Chinese medicine or Western medicine, the theoretical knowledge you learn initially is very important.
However, when students come into contact with these things, one is Chinese medicine and the other is Western medicine, which are completely different. Students do not have a deep understanding of them and just memorize them hastily. When they go to the hospital, they are often confused when using them.
The biggest impact of medical schools on traditional Chinese medicine now is that most medical schools have Western medicine teachers, and some students majoring in traditional Chinese medicine will also choose to study Western medicine considering their employment after graduation. After graduation, their thinking will be more inclined towards Western medicine, after all, Western medicine is easier to understand.
Yun Heng continued, "The syndrome differentiation and classification of diseases listed in textbooks only list some representative symptoms, not all symptoms. However, in actual clinical practice, we encounter all kinds of symptoms. What is the first problem we encounter when we first start clinical practice?"
Yun Heng looked at the crowd and said, "The first problem we discovered is that there are some differences between the symptoms encountered in clinical practice and those in textbooks. This difference is objective and unavoidable. At this time, we can't just apply the formulas completely like we would do math problems. This is the biggest difference between textbooks and clinical practice."
"At this point, we need to carefully distinguish the primary and secondary issues, the differences, and then conduct dialectical analysis."
Everyone listened quietly. For a moment, the whole room was silent, with only Yun Heng's voice.
