Chapter 403 Longed for



Tian Cai stayed in the Military General Hospital for a month.

She said she was here to exchange and learn, and she really was here to exchange and learn. After repeatedly confirming that Tian Cai was not joking, Chang Qingyun finally placed her in the Traditional Chinese Medicine Department.

The Department of Traditional Chinese Medicine of the PLA General Hospital is one of the earliest established departments of Traditional Chinese Medicine and is a comprehensive department that combines traditional Chinese and Western medicine.

In addition to its own outpatient clinic, it also has independent wards and specializes in acupuncture, massage, internal and external use of Chinese medicine and other treatments.

Tian Cai personally witnessed how Doctor Zhang Wenshan treated the old general who suffered from the sequelae of stroke. Hu Xiaohong's stroke in Kaoshan Village was not serious. He only had a crooked mouth, squinting eyes and mild hemiplegia, but the old general's condition was much more serious.

It is said that the old general had already suffered from impaired consciousness when he was admitted to the hospital and was in danger of life at any time. He was saved by Doctor Zhang. When Tian Cai came, he had been in the hospital for almost a month. After this period of treatment, the old general was in much better health except for some slurred speech.

Doctor Zhang said that I would have to continue with the acupuncture for a while, but I didn't need to stay in the hospital every day. I just had to come on time.

Zhang Wenshan was very happy to see Tian Cai coming.

The wound medicine and hemostatic powder contributed by Tian Cai all passed through his hands, and he even saw the decoctions and acupuncture methods for conditioning the body. Although he had never met him, he had been "fascinated for a long time" by this young doctor from Liaoning Province.

She even paid special attention to Tian Cai's various deeds, and from these things it can be seen that she is good at acupuncture.

"I have a patient with a rather unusual condition. I had been planning to transfer her to your care once her condition stabilized," Zhang Wenshan sighed. "Although my ancestors have been practicing medicine, they're not particularly skilled in acupuncture. They're neither good nor bad. But my current condition clearly doesn't meet the standards of this patient."

"Don't mention inviting me or not. Just tell me directly if you have anything to ask." Tian Cai said very sincerely. She has always respected people with real abilities, not to mention that Zhang Wenshan is a truly compassionate doctor.

Zhang Wenshan said with a smile, "It can't be called an order, it's just asking you, little girl, to help me."

The patient was a military dependent from Jinshi. Her husband died in the line of duty. After the news was passed back, the patient was so emotionally agitated that she jumped off the building. She was discovered by her neighbors and rushed to the hospital. However, the local hospital's medical level was inadequate, and after a week of treatment, the patient's life was barely saved.

Later, her husband's comrades learned about this and found a way to transfer him to the Military General Hospital. Initially, they treated his physical injuries. The patient had jumped from a building and had multiple fractures of varying degrees, so in the early stages of hospitalization, many parts of his body were splinted.

Her internal organs were also ruptured to varying degrees. It was a blessing that she didn't die on the spot. Also, the doctor who treated her before was very capable.

But Doctor Zhang said that the patient's most serious condition was not the fractures and damaged internal organs, but his head.

The brain is a very delicate place, and there is no way to determine what impact this injury will have on the patient. In the past six months, he has really used all his life's knowledge on this patient and devoted a lot of effort to her condition.

He waited until the patient's body had basically recovered before trying to wake him up. He tried all kinds of methods, even bringing his own grandfather who was over 80 years old, but it still had no effect.

But it can be felt that the patient's condition is indeed improving day by day. At least some parts of her body can respond, such as slight tremors in her fingers and twitching eyelids.

This situation lasted for more than two months.

After much thought, Zhang Wenshan felt that he needed a doctor who was good at acupuncture to stimulate the patient's brain, increase the activity of the cerebral cortex, and allow the patient to wake up as soon as possible.

Somehow, the first person that came to Zhang Wenshan's mind was Tian Cai, the young doctor he had only heard of but never met.

When he decided to call Tian Cai to discuss the situation in advance, he heard from the logistics director that the young doctor was coming over for exchange and learning.

When people came, he was even more willing to ask questions and didn't think there was anything wrong with asking the little girl Tian Cai for advice.

The ancestors of the Zhang family were also imperial physicians. Later, when the emperor showed his intention to reject traditional Chinese medicine, the ancestors of the Zhang family resigned in a very formal manner.

It's just right that I don't have to deal with the intrigues of officialdom, and I can use my time to improve my medical skills.

After the founding of the People's Republic of China, Mr. Zhang was specially hired as a full-time doctor for several senior leaders.

He has been getting older in recent years. Although his eyesight and hearing are not blurry, the health of his leaders cannot tolerate any mistakes, so he often has to make the decisions and let others do the work.

This year I finally retired and am enjoying my retirement at home.

The old man has been busy all his life and can't stand being idle all of a sudden, so he simply registered at the Military General Hospital and came here to hang out whenever he had time, to check out the difficult and complicated diseases in the hospital and to guide the students behind him.

Old Master Zhang had said before that there was nothing secretive about the things passed down by the Zhang family's ancestors. He would teach anyone who asked for advice without reservation. If anyone was able to learn a few tricks, becoming a grassroots doctor would not be a problem.

Therefore, many doctors who specialize in traditional Chinese medicine like to go to the Zhang family. It is a great benefit for them to receive some advice from Mr. Zhang. However, Mr. Zhang no longer receives guests since he became the leader's side.

In terms of acupuncture, Mr. Zhang is slightly better than Zhang Wenshan, but not much. In his own words, the Zhang family's ancestors may not have the genes in this area.

It’s not that the Zhang family’s acupuncture method is bad, but they are used to being cautious and only use conservative methods according to their ancestors. They mainly rely on internal adjustments with decoctions and medicines. There are naturally people who are good at acupuncture in the imperial medical team, but it is not easy to find the descendants of that family in this world.

Zhang Wenshan took Tian Cai to the ward to see the patient who had been in a coma, and asked her to personally diagnose and feel the patient's pulse. This was the habit of every doctor, and they would never prescribe acupuncture or medicine based solely on someone else's diagnosis.

He also showed Tian Cai several acupuncture techniques he had used.

Tian Cai was a person who had seen many good things. When she got the needlework, she understood its value as soon as she saw it. However, she did not expect that the Zhang family would give it to her without reservation.

Since the owner didn't mind, Tian Cai looked at it without hesitation.

For the next two days, Tian Cai stayed in the patient's ward. Zhang Wenshan would come over occasionally, but unlike Tian Cai, he had a lot of other work to do.

Tian Cai took out the acupuncture techniques that he had not yet fully studied, and called Mr. Tan in Yunnan Province. After obtaining his consent, he also took out part of the acupuncture techniques that he had learned from him.

Tian Cai felt that these acupuncture methods should be able to be used in combination, but she had not figured out the reason.

She borrowed a mannequin and simulated needlework on it.

When Mr. Zhang, with gray hair and wrinkles on his face, came over, he couldn't walk when he saw Tian Cai's technique. Although he was old, his eyes were fine. He stood quietly behind Tian Cai and observed for a long time.
