Chapter 266 Can Traditional Chinese Medicine Perform Surgery?
"I arrived at Hangzhou Hospital and looked for a twelve-year-old boy named Zhu Yinglong.
After finding the person, he took this pill to save his life, and then quickly brought him to Kyoto for treatment.
The child has a chance to save his life, otherwise."
Xu Lin sighed, "Otherwise, you will never see your grandson again."
"What? I have a grandson?" The old man stood up excitedly, clenching his hands into fists.
"Is my grandson's life still in danger?"
"Yes, that child is your son's fate. If the child cannot survive,
Your son will be depressed and die of grief within two years."
Xu Lin pushed the medicine in her hand again and urged, "You'd better use your connections and rush over as quickly as possible."
The old man's eyes turned red as he looked at the medicine. His son had been lost in the war and they had not seen him for thirty years.
If it is really as Mr. Xu said, then he!
The old man swayed for a moment, but quickly calmed himself down and without caring about treating himself, he immediately called the guards.
Soon the guard hurried away with the medicine.
After watching the guards leave, the old man still couldn't rest easy. He looked at Xu Lin and asked hesitantly, "Is there really a chance to save the child?"
"There is a glimmer of hope." Xu Lin looked at the old man, "That glimmer of hope should be with you, so if you send someone in time, saving your life will not be a problem."
The old man rubbed his face vigorously several times, trying to calm himself down. Xu Lin sat beside him drinking tea, not in any hurry to treat the illness.
After a long while, the old man calmed down and said solemnly:
"Whether I can save the child or not, I owe you a big favor."
"The old man is seriously ill. It is my honor to serve you." Xu Lin put down the cup.
"Now that you have calmed down, let's start the treatment."
"No rush. Could I trouble you to go to Hangzhou?" the old man asked.
Xu Lin shook her head and said, "It won't be a problem for the people you send to save their lives with the pills.
The child is seriously injured, and the medical equipment at Hangzhou Hospital is not adequate, so he has to be transferred to Kyoto."
Xu Lin did not continue to say the rest. The old man understood that the children had to come to Kyoto anyway, so Xu Lin really did not need to go.
Furthermore, Xu Lin was involved in Qin Fang's and their case, and had to stay in Kyoto to cooperate, so she really couldn't leave.
The old man understood in his heart, but it was not good to let Xu Lin go to Hangzhou anymore, so he could only say:
"Then please help me take a look, sir."
Xu Lin smiled and nodded. She came here to treat the old man, so how could she disobey?
The old man thanked us again and said that he would cooperate with the treatment.
Soon they went to the medical room next door. The old man's attending physician stood by and watched Xu Lin's every move with a serious expression.
When I saw Xu Lin using the rejuvenation needle technique, I couldn't help but ask, "Is this the rejuvenation needle technique?"
"Yes, have you seen it before?" Xu Lin asked.
Doctor Tang shook his head, "I have never seen a rejuvenation injection. I studied Western medicine and don't know much about Chinese medicine."
Oh, Xu Lin raised her eyebrows, feeling that Dr. Tang was much more cultured than Tao Chunxiu.
Tao Chunxiu is good at Western medicine, but she looks down on Chinese medicine. She seems to deserve a beating.
"Whether it's Western medicine or Chinese medicine, as long as it can cure the disease, it's a good doctor." The old man said while lying on the bed.
Xu Lin and Doctor Tang both smiled and said yes. Doctor Tang watched Xu Lin giving the acupuncture with a flash of surprise in his eyes.
It would take at least several decades of practice to master this medical skill. How did Xu Lin do it at such a young age?
Is there really such a big difference between genius and ordinary people?
It's quite discouraging.
While performing the acupuncture, Xu Lin secretly transferred some wood-related supernatural powers. The old man's health was very poor and he could not undergo surgery in his current condition.
You have to get your body in shape before you can do the surgery.
The wood-type ability quietly improved the old man's physical condition. He closed his eyes and fell asleep soon after feeling comfortable.
Unlike his previous sleep patterns where he would frown, the old man now looked particularly peaceful when he was sleeping.
Doctor Tang was amazed and couldn't help but say, "I thought Chinese medicine would take a long time to work, but I didn't expect it to be so fast."
"How quickly the treatment works depends on the situation and the level of medical skills. Not every Chinese medicine practitioner can achieve this speed."
As Xu Lin spoke, she walked to the table next to her and started writing a prescription.
Doctor Tang went over to take a look. He knew the name of the medicine, but didn't know its specific efficacy, so he asked, "What does this prescription treat?"
"The prescription is mainly to regulate Mr. Lu's body and restore his body to a state where he can undergo surgery."
"Can Chinese medicine practitioners also perform surgery?" Dr. Tang asked in surprise.
"Yes," Xu Lin looked at Doctor Tang in surprise and couldn't help asking, "Doctor Tang, have you ever heard the story of Hua Tuo wanting to open Cao Cao's brain?"
"Isn't that a story?" Doctor Tang asked curiously, "Can Chinese medicine really open the skull?"
"Of course I can."
Xu Lin put the prescription aside. Seeing that it was still early and there were people waiting, she decided to have a good chat with Dr. Tang.
There are too many misunderstandings about traditional Chinese medicine. How can people think that traditional Chinese medicine does not include surgery?
In ancient times, there were also amputations and heart dissections.
As Xu Lin continued to speak, Dr. Tang felt that he was overwhelmed by what he had seen. He had never expected that Chinese medicine was so amazing.
After hearing this, he wanted to learn Chinese medicine.
However, thinking about the current status of traditional Chinese medicine, Dr. Tang suppressed this idea. He felt that it was safer to learn Western medicine.
At least it won’t be criticized as superstitious or feudal!
Xu Lin knew that to be able to serve as the attending physician to the elderly, his medical skills must be very advanced, so she wanted to communicate with him.
What followed was a back-and-forth exchange between the two. For the same case, Xu Lin talked about the Chinese medicine treatment method, and Dr. Tang talked about the Western medicine treatment method.
As the communication deepened, Dr. Tang realized that Western medicine treats where the pain is, while Chinese medicine treats the foot for a headache and the waist for a foot pain.
In general, Chinese medicine looks for the cause of the disease, while Western medicine looks for the symptoms, and treats wherever the discomfort is.
The reason why traditional Chinese medicine is slow to take effect is that it treats the source of the disease instead of directly eliminating the disease, which would eradicate it completely.
After understanding it, Dr. Tang felt that there is a reason for going slow, and that slow work produces fine results, which is really true.
The two of them talked without prejudice, and they became happier and happier as they talked, and soon they became close friends regardless of age difference.
When the old man woke up, he saw the two of them, an old man and a young boy, who could talk about anything.
There was a live-in doctor who took care of the old man's health, so it had nothing to do with Xu Lin. So she gave him some instructions and left.
After leaving the high-end neighborhood, Xu Lin thought that she had a batch of meat to deal with, so she went to the black market.
I first went to the former black market, only to find that it was deserted and there was no trace of the black market.
Xu Lin was not disappointed and rode her bicycle around the streets.
As a result, she saw an acquaintance before she found the black market.
Xu Kun walked behind several young men with his back hunched, neck shrunk and head lowered. The fat on his face from eating too much had disappeared, and his square face had become long.
