Su Zhengnan smiled and took the pulse of the security guard in front of him, only to find that the pulse was floating and knotted, hesitant and slow.
This pulse pattern indicates that the patient has obvious deficiency of Qi and blood, and stagnation of Yang Qi.
"Come on, open your mouth, let me take another look at your tongue."
"ah....."
After taking the pulse, Su Zhengnan examined the security guard's tongue. He noticed that the tongue was white and greasy with a thick white coating, which indicated phlegm and fluid retention.
Phlegm and fluid retention refer to the condition in which fluids in a patient's body cannot be transported and transformed, and instead remain or seep into a certain part of the body. This is a broad definition of phlegm and fluid retention, in which phlegm and fluid retention are both distinct and related.
And the phlegm mentioned here does not only refer to the phlegm coughed up.
This also includes scrofula, phlegm nodules, and phlegm stagnating in the internal organs and meridians; this type of phlegm is called "invisible phlegm."
As the saying goes: "The evil of drinking remains in the intestines and stomach."
This condition is usually related to an individual's dietary habits.
After confirming the other person's illness, Su Zhengnan tapped his fingers lightly on his desk. It wasn't that he didn't know how to treat it, but rather that he was thinking about the easiest way to treat the other person.
Of course, Su Zhengnan wasn't thinking of saving money for the security guard in front of him.
Don't underestimate him just because he's a security guard.
But who knows how many mines his family owns if he can work as a security guard in Beijing?
Maybe their family has assets worth over 100 million!
I only became a security guard because I was bored.
Su Zhengnan thought for a moment and said to the security guard in front of him, "Your illness is caused by your dietary habits accumulated over time, so treatment may take a long time. Let me give you acupuncture first!"
"If you find my acupuncture helpful, just come to the school clinic to get a prescription."
"If you feel it's not working, you can go to other hospitals for a checkup."
Su Zhengnan didn't make any definitive statements, after all, this was a free clinic, not the school clinic.
Upon hearing Su Zhengnan say this...
The security guard couldn't help but laugh and said, "Acupuncture? That's great! I've only ever had acupuncture once in my life, when I was a kid and got scared. I've never tried it since!"
"Everyone says that our ancestors' acupuncture is amazing, so today I'm going to try it out and see if it's really that miraculous!"
As he spoke, the security guard took off his coat, revealing his wrinkled skin.
Su Zhengnan was speechless!
However, since the words have already been spoken, acupuncture should still be performed as needed.
Immediately, Su Zhengnan took out the silver needles he carried with him and began to disinfect them before preparing to perform acupuncture on the security guard in front of him.
As soon as Qiu Ruoyu and the others saw that Su Zhengnan was about to perform acupuncture on someone, they immediately surrounded him, afraid of missing this moment.
It should be noted that although these individuals are all students of Elder Gu, they are not his disciples.
The number of students taught by Mr. Gu at the school is countless.
From their freshman to senior year, Qiu Ruoyu and the others only witnessed Professor Gu demonstrating acupuncture once in front of everyone.
Su Zhengnan is currently Gu Lao's last disciple.
What's the difference between his acupuncture practice and that of Master Gu?
Therefore, Qiu Ruoyu and the others were eagerly anticipating Su Zhengnan's acupuncture treatment, and each of them wished they could get a closer look.
Su Zhengnan glanced at them indifferently, then explained while inserting the needles: "Phlegm is a tangible yin evil. Therefore, once phlegm is formed, it has the characteristics of being damp, turbid, sticky, and stagnant. It can not only obstruct the flow of qi, but also affect the circulation of qi and blood in the meridians."
"Therefore, acupuncture should primarily target acupoints such as Fenglong, Tiantu, Taiyuan, and Tanzhong..."
Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!
Su Zhengnan inserted the needles very quickly, and the acupuncture points were extremely precise.
Qiu Ruoyu and the others watched without blinking, afraid of missing anything.
It was only then that they witnessed what real acupuncture was like!
It turns out that there really are people who can use acupuncture to such an extent; no wonder Master Gu accepted them as his last disciple.
Su Zhengnan quickly finished the acupuncture treatment for the security guard.
Qiu Ruoyu and the others were dumbfounded.
Tap tap tap...
It was at this time that...
Sun Huaiwei, wearing high heels, approached from afar and appeared before Su Zhengnan and the others with a gloomy face.
"Hmm? Doctor Sun?"
Su Zhengnan looked at the other person with great surprise, not understanding why the other person was here.
Sun Huaiwei glanced at the silver needles stuck in the security guard's body, her eyes filled with curiosity, and asked, "Is this your traditional Chinese medicine acupuncture? I've seen quite a few before, but it's rare to see it done with just a few silver needles like this. Does it work?"
"The selection of acupoints in traditional Chinese medicine acupuncture emphasizes precision over quantity!"
Su Zhengnan smiled and replied, then fell silent.
Even if you explain it to someone who doesn't understand traditional Chinese medicine from beginning to end, they still won't be able to grasp the underlying principles.
Sun Huaiwei frowned and pondered for a moment before suddenly asking, "By the way, I just heard Sister Zhou say that you organized this free clinic yourself? Did you call these people here to help?"
As she spoke, Sun Huaiwei pointed to Qiu Ruoyu and the others standing to the side.
Su Zhengnan raised an eyebrow, slightly displeased, and said, "That's right, they are all my teacher's students. Is there a problem with me asking them to come and help out?"
Sun Huaiwei also sensed the displeasure in Su Zhengnan's tone and immediately changed her tune, saying, "Your teacher's student means he's a student at Beijing Medical College? Then there's naturally no problem. But didn't you advertise this free clinic beforehand? Who's going to come for treatment?"
Su Zhengnan smiled but didn't reply, his eyes instead fixed on the security guard sitting in front of him.
At this point, about ten minutes had passed since the acupuncture needles were left in place.
The security guard felt warm all over, even more comfortable than going to a sauna.
Immediately, the security guard gave Su Zhengnan a thumbs up and said, "Hey, I didn't expect your acupuncture to actually work! My chest pain suddenly stopped, and I feel a tingling sensation all over my body, like a massage!"
Upon hearing what the security guard said, Sun Huaiwei looked at him.
"Well, it's about time. You can remove the needle now."
Su Zhengnan smiled and nodded, then removed the silver needles from the security guard's body and said, "If you feel it's effective, you can come to the school clinic to get a prescription from me. I guarantee it will cure you."
"Hehe, okay, I'll go after I get off work."
The security guard felt much better after the acupuncture, and immediately believed in Su Zhengnan's medical skills. He decided to go back and get some medicine from him to treat himself.
