School clinic.
Inside the outpatient department of Traditional Chinese Medicine.
Su Zhengnan turned to a new page of the medical record, and while picking up his pen, asked the girl in front of him:
"Name?"
"Wu Shishi!"
"age?"
Twenty-one!
Tell me where you feel unwell? What symptoms are you experiencing?
"I don't feel unwell anywhere, but I have a lot of pimples and acne on my face. Doctor, do you have any traditional Chinese medicine methods to cure this?"
Wu Shishi pointed to the pimples and pimples covering her face with a resentful expression, which looked quite terrifying.
Her face was covered in acne, which prevented her from getting a boyfriend at school.
She's already a senior in college!
She's graduating in the second half of the year, and if she can't get rid of the acne on her face, she's afraid she won't be able to find a job after graduation.
After all, if a person looks too ugly...
It's unlikely any company would hire you, unless you're practically a relative of the boss.
Su Zhengnan stared at the acne covering the other person's face and said, "Give me your hand, let me take your pulse first."
"Okay, sure."
Wu Shishi nodded and stretched out her small wrist as she continued, "I started getting acne in my freshman year of college. I've seen many Western doctors and used many medications over the years, but I just haven't been able to get rid of it. In fact, it's only gotten worse."
In Western medicine, acne is a chronic inflammatory skin disease of the pilosebaceous unit, so it is usually treated with anti-inflammatory drugs.
But in fact, not all acne is inflammation.
Su Zhengnan took the other person's pulse and said, "Come on, open your mouth, let me see your tongue."
"ah....."
Wu Shishi immediately opened her mouth wide and stuck out her tongue.
Su Zhengnan glanced at it and noticed that the other person's tongue coating was yellow and greasy, accompanied by a slight bad breath, which was a typical case of phlegm-dampness stagnation type acne.
It is important to know that, in the diagnosis and treatment of traditional Chinese medicine, there are three types of acne.
One type is the lung meridian wind-heat type!
Another type is the damp-heat accumulation type!
The last type is the phlegm-dampness stagnation type!
Acne caused by phlegm and dampness accumulation is generally due to eating too much oily food, which leads to stagnation of qi, blood stasis, liver stasis, etc. in the body, and is not an inflammation as described in Western medicine.
In fact, skin diseases like acne are generally not diagnosed by pulse diagnosis.
Most acne cases can be diagnosed simply through visual examination and questioning.
However, the girl's symptoms were so severe that they had completely affected her appearance, which is why she was so anxious.
After thinking for a moment, Su Zhengnan picked up his pen and wrote his diagnosis in the medical record book, while asking Wu Shishi:
Do you usually like to eat greasy food? And do you have a big appetite? But you never gain weight no matter how much you eat?
"Wow, doctor, how did you know? You're amazing!"
Wu Shishi's eyes widened in disbelief as she stared at Su Zhengnan, experiencing for the first time the terrifying power of traditional Chinese medicine.
I only took her pulse and looked at her tongue.
They even noticed her eating habits and her constitution that prevents her from gaining weight easily?
I haven't even said anything yet!
Su Zhengnan couldn't help but smile slightly and said, "It's nothing, just basic Chinese medicine. Your acne isn't a big problem. I'll prescribe a formula for you to try. In your daily life, try to eat less oily food and more vegetables and fruits."
"Especially foods that have the functions of strengthening the spleen and removing dampness, resolving phlegm and eliminating phlegm, such as radishes, water chestnuts, seaweed, onions, lentils, Job's tears, red beans, cabbage, etc."
"Okay, I understand, thank you, doctor."
Wu Shishi nodded repeatedly and thanked them.
For acne of the phlegm-dampness type, it can generally be treated with Er Chen Tang or Wen Dan Tang as the main formulas, with modifications.
Su Zhengnan directly prescribed a warm gallbladder soup for the other party.
Wendan Decoction has the effects of regulating qi and resolving phlegm, harmonizing the stomach and promoting bile secretion. It has a good effect on gallbladder stagnation and phlegm disturbance, timidity and easy fright, dizziness and palpitations, restlessness and insomnia, qi stagnation and blood stasis.
Soon, Su Zhengnan finished writing the prescription and said to Wu Shishi:
"Take this prescription to the nurse in front to pay, and then come back to me to pick up your medicine."
"Okay, thank you, doctor."
Wu Shishi took the form and turned to go to pay the nurse, Zhou Zixuan.
When Wu Shishi returned after paying the money.
Su Zhengnan had already prepared the medicine and handed it to her, instructing her, "One dose a day, twice a day, taken in the morning and evening."
"I understand, thank you, doctor."
Wu Shishi nodded and thanked them again, then took the medicine and left the infirmary.
[Ding! Congratulations on completing today's daily task: Consulting 5 students. You will receive a reward of 'Traditional Chinese Medicine Typhoid Fever Differentiation Theory' (Expert Level).]
"Expert-level TCM theory of typhoid fever diagnosis?"
Su Zhengnan's eyes lit up immediately, and a faint smile appeared on his lips.
With a whoosh!
Immediately afterwards, a whole host of knowledge related to the differentiation of typhoid fever in traditional Chinese medicine was stuffed into his mind by the system.
Su Zhengnan instantly felt as if he had studied the traditional Chinese medicine text "Treatise on Febrile Diseases" for decades.
The traditional Chinese medicine theory of typhoid fever, which I had not understood before, suddenly became clear, and my understanding of pulse diagnosis, pulse differentiation, pulse equalization, and various typhoid fever cases has been greatly improved!
It should be noted that this comes from the theory of syndrome differentiation of typhoid fever in the Treatise on Cold Damage.
As a masterpiece passed down by Zhang Zhongjing, the Sage of Medicine, the Treatise on Febrile Diseases summarizes the best principles of treating various exogenous febrile diseases and is a collection of clinical treatment experiences accumulated from countless cases.
The Treatise on Febrile Diseases not only clarifies the principle of "differentiation of syndromes and treatment" in traditional Chinese medicine, but also establishes the basic principles of clinical practice in traditional Chinese medicine.
Soon, Su Zhengnan had digested the traditional Chinese medicine knowledge he had acquired.
It has to be said.
This system cheat code that's linked to the Beijing Film Academy's school doctor is pretty awesome.
At least in the field of traditional Chinese medicine, he is absolutely amazing. What others need to spend more than ten years to learn is something he can learn by simply completing a daily task.
This is far more powerful than any medical saint or god!
Even figures as accomplished as Zhang Zhongjing and Hua Tuo wouldn't dare claim that their disciples could reach the same level as them.
However, Su Zhengnan's system cheat code can do this.
Even Su Zhengnan himself firmly believed this.
Compared to making money.
Learning skills to heal the sick and save lives, as well as the ability to maintain health and prolong life, is far more valuable than becoming the world's richest person.
This is one of the reasons why Su Zhengnan stayed on as the school doctor.
