"Doctor Wen, I know you are very famous in Dongqu. I would like to ask your opinion. Do you agree with Professor Wang's method? I heard that the prescription you prescribe is actually milder than Professor Wang's."
Although the Warm Disease School advocates clearing fire and heat, the medicines it uses are relatively mild and do not use strong drugs.
You said that this patient is about to develop obstruction. Will it really be useful to give him more tonic? As Western doctors worry, is there a miracle tonic?
No wonder the Warm Disease School is so famous. It may be that they discovered early on from clinical practice that only replenishing the body without reducing heat is ineffective.
As a modern Chinese doctor, Wen Jinsheng was even more frank, telling the patient's family: "I personally think that it is not okay to force-feed patients now."
Originally, patients with intestinal obstruction should fast preventively. Otherwise, Western medicine would not dare to use laxatives.
Taking laxatives may promote intestinal peristalsis while pushing food to the obstruction, making the patient's condition worse.
When the other family members heard this, they said: Oh, that makes sense.
The Western doctors continued to remain silent: let’s wait and see what happens after the quarrel between the Chinese doctors.
...
...
Professor Wang quickly clarified: "Of course, we should try a small amount first."
If a small amount of medicine is used, will it be effective for such a weak patient?
This time, almost all the staff had deep doubts about Professor Wang's statement.
Seeing that the situation was not right, Professor Wang turned to ask Wen Jinsheng directly: "What method do you want to use?"
"This is why I invited her here." Wen Jinsheng mentioned his cousin.
"You invited her, not her teacher." Professor Wang seized on his words and raised another suspicion, "Or did you and her teacher invite her together?"
The family members and Western doctors all felt very puzzled as to why Professor Wang seemed to be targeting Dr. Wen Zihan.
"I'm not targeting her personally. I just find it strange. I heard that her teacher asked her to stop seeing patients after she returned to China." Professor Wang explained the reason.
Being forbidden from seeing patients by the teacher, what "bad things" did Dr. Wen Zihan do? A large group of people's eyes flashed with surprise.
At this point, Wen Jinsheng simply revealed everything: "Her teacher, Professor Mo, does not approve of her going abroad for further studies."
Going further, we have to talk about what Dr. Wen Zihan did that shocked the world in the traditional Chinese medicine circle.
Under such circumstances, when even Wen Jinsheng was worried about whether to speak out for his cousin, Wen Zihan suddenly spoke up himself: "The conflict between me and my teacher is that I raised academic doubts about the Yellow Emperor's Classic of Internal Medicine."
The problem with not covering up is that covering up during clinical practice will only make the patient's family members distrust the doctor.
As a doctor, my cousin made the right decision. Wen Jinsheng sighed. His cousin was indeed very courageous in her studies.
Huangdi Neijing is like the Bible in the TCM community. Throughout the history of ancient TCM, most academic viewpoints were based on Huangdi Neijing.
However, it goes without saying that some of the medical academic views in this book have been falsified by modern science.
Some people in traditional Chinese medicine say that since modern science has not researched it, it cannot be said to be wrong.
In fact, it is certainly not possible to make such an excuse.
First of all, we must have a correct attitude and decide whether it is a medical work. If it is a medical work, it must constantly be tested and revised by new scientific discoveries.
Western medicine has developed in this way and never claims that ancient Western medicine is correct. If Chinese medicine is science and not religion, it certainly cannot say this either.
