He was wronging Tian Cai in this regard. She changed the sheets of the examination bed frequently. These sheets were originally bought from Du Chunyan. They were sold as defective cloth because they were stained with other colors.
I kept the ones without color bleeding for my own use. I felt that there was no need to put too good ones on the examination bed, so I used the dyed ones here. I would change them in time after a patient lay on them.
After Old Mrs. Huang sat down, she was about to chase out her son and grandson who had followed her.
"No need," Tian Cai waved his hand, signaling Huang Zhengguang to roll up the old lady's sleeves and trouser legs. "The acupuncture points to be pierced are all on her arms and legs. No need to take off her clothes."
Huang Zhengguang's eyes moved when he heard this, and he felt even more confused. He was very sure that when Hong Siqing gave acupuncture to his old lady before, he also gave acupuncture to her body. Even the half-baked old Chinese doctor he found a while ago also gave acupuncture to her body. It was just that the old lady felt that he was far inferior to Doctor Hong, so she only used him to prescribe medicine.
Tian Cai took out the needle bag from the medicine cabinet, disinfected each needle with alcohol, and asked the old lady to lie on the bed before starting to give the injection.
Tian Cai, holding the needle, seemed like a different person. His face was calm and his hands moved quickly, which made the people watching him inexplicably trust him.
Tian Cai inserted the needles without any hesitation. The whole set of movements was smooth and flowing. Before the old lady even felt it, four needles had been inserted.
Huang Zhengguang stared at Tian Cai's movements closely, and only then did he breathe a sigh of relief. This doctor should be more powerful than he imagined.
Tian Cai inserted needles into the old lady's Neiguan, Xuehai, Shenmen, Shaohai, Quze and other acupuncture points one by one. This acupuncture method is very particular about the depth of needle insertion. If Tian Cai's acupuncture skills had not been improved, she would not dare to use this acupuncture method at all.
Even then, she hesitated for the last shot.
After the needles were inserted, she reminded the Huang family father and son of the points they needed to pay attention to in the care of the old lady. In fact, the two of them had heard these things from countless doctors, such as not to make the elderly angry, to pay attention to a light diet, and to get enough rest. These were all old sayings, and not only the listeners, but also the people who said them found them boring.
"The old lady occasionally has trouble breathing. You can get an oxygen device at home and use it immediately if you feel unwell."
Huang Zhengguang and Huang Mao were both stunned. The father and son looked at each other and saw regret in each other's eyes. Yes, why didn't they think of it?
Tian Cai glanced at the father and son and didn't want to express his opinion.
Before, the old lady was looked after by Hong Siqing, and the right medicine was always available. If she felt unwell, she could go to the health center and he would help her with acupuncture and conditioning in time. It was not certain that the medicine would be needed. Tian Cai even suspected that the old lady's condition was not as serious as it is now. During this period, he did not know whether it was because of procrastination or something else, it showed signs of worsening.
"And considering the old lady's condition, you should also be careful with the food you feed her and use less salt." She thought about it in her mind and felt that there was nothing else to remind them. She then taught the father and son two simple cardiopulmonary resuscitation techniques, and time was almost up.
Tian Cai pulled out all the needles from the old lady and asked gently, "How do you feel?"
Old Mrs. Huang took two deep breaths and felt that she was indeed much better than before. She was very happy and said, "It seems that my old bones can still live for a few more years!"
"Your illness can't be cured with simple acupuncture," Tian Cai said sternly after sterilizing each needle and replacing them. "I'm not trying to scare you. I'll have to prescribe some herbal remedies for you to take. Come back every two days for acupuncture treatment. This will last at least half a month, and then we'll see how things go."
"Take the medicine?" Old Mrs. Huang was a little reluctant. The medicine tasted so bitter that she felt like vomiting before she even drank it.
Tian Cai nodded with certainty, "You must eat it, and you must eat it every day!"
The old lady looked back at her son and saw the rare determination in his eyes, then she lowered her head unhappily.
Tian Cai took advantage of this opportunity to wink at Huang Mao. Huang Mao was stunned for a moment, but quickly reacted. He glanced at his father again, stepped forward to support Mrs. Huang and said, "Grandma, we finally came to the village. Let Doctor Tian prescribe medicine for you. I'll take you out for a walk."
Old Mrs. Huang also felt that the scenery here was much better than in the city. She forced herself to cheer up and went out holding her grandson's arm.
Huang Zhengguang received his son's look, moved his feet, and sat back in his original position. "You guys go ahead. I'll wait here to get the medicine."
After Huang Mao and the old lady left, Tian Cai spoke straight to the point. "Although the old lady has a congenital heart disease, it wasn't serious before. It's just that her heart function has declined more severely than others as she's gotten older. Her current condition isn't very good. Normally, heart patients will feel chest tightness and pain, but difficulty breathing is a problem. This is usually related to pulmonary congestion. Did you have your lungs checked during your previous hospital checkup?"
Huang Zhengguang was a little confused, but he understood what Tian Cai said. He shook his head and said, "I haven't checked."
In fact, the most appropriate thing to do in this situation is a cardiac ultrasound, but at that time, it was not known whether such a thing existed, and she really did not understand the development history of some medical facilities.
"What if there is really blood clot in the lungs?" Huang Zhengguang swallowed and asked fearfully.
"Then you need to use cardiotonic, diuretic, and vasodilator drugs to enhance myocardial contractility, reduce the burden on the heart, and improve heart function. Plus, pay attention to rest, a light diet, and control your emotions, and you'll gradually get better."
When she took the old lady's pulse, she couldn't tell if there was any blood stasis. She didn't know if the old lady's condition was not that serious or if her skills were not good enough.
"Take my prescription for a while first, and then adjust it if it doesn't work." Tian Cai thought of the emergency medicine for heart patients in the future. Even in the future, prescriptions are kept secret, but there are prescriptions with similar emergency effects in the Cai family's medical books that can be borrowed. "I'll make you another kind of pill. It's very effective as an emergency treatment."
"good!"
At this moment, Huang Zhengguang became more and more convinced of Tian Cai. The old lady's complexion had obviously improved after the acupuncture, and some extravagant hopes rose in his heart.
Huang Zhengguang hesitated for a moment, knowing it was impossible, but he still asked, "Doctor Tian, do you think my mother's illness can be cured?"
"It is impossible to cure unless the heart is replaced." Tian Cai said without hesitation. He didn't know if there was any heart transplant surgery in the country, but the only way for patients with congenital heart disease to recover was a heart transplant. This kind of congenital disease, even if you use dew to nourish it every day, will make the patient look like an ordinary person on the surface, but the internal problem will still be there.
Dew can adjust your body to its original state, but it cannot replenish what you don't have at once. If that were the case, it would no longer be dew but a magic technique.
Huang Zhengguang couldn't say he was disappointed. He knew it in his heart, but he still didn't give up hope.
