The College of Traditional Chinese Medicine naturally has its own pharmacy, so Liu Ye doesn't have to worry about how to prepare and boil the medicine.
Moreover, students can enjoy the subsidized price given by the school when purchasing medicinal materials, which is very, very cheap.
Epilepsy is different from common diseases. It occurs at irregular intervals and is no different from normal people when there is no attack. Therefore, the effect of Tian Cai's acupuncture on willow leaves cannot be seen immediately.
Even if it wasn't obvious, the skill Tian Cai showed in the cafeteria at that time still shocked many people.
Everyone saw how critical Liu Ye's condition was at the time. Tian Cai was able to calmly give her a few injections and control the condition, which deeply shocked many medical students.
It turns out that Traditional Chinese Medicine can also provide first aid!
So the students who were already studying hard worked even harder.
——————
There are also many families living near the College of Traditional Chinese Medicine, and they are all old residents who have lived here for many years.
There is something interesting about the relationship between the students of the College of Traditional Chinese Medicine and these people. Tian Cai heard from an old professor in the college that in the past, when people who lived there got sick, they would not go to the hospital, but would seek treatment from the students of the College of Traditional Chinese Medicine.
Students need cases, and they want cheap prices. It is mutually beneficial for both sides and they have been cooperating very well.
Of course, there are occasional cases where the disease cannot be cured. In that case, most students will ask their teachers for advice, or use the patient as a teaching demonstration. In the end, they spend very little money, or even no money at all, as they have very capable people to treat them.
It can be said to be a very cost-effective deal.
Even the College of Traditional Chinese Medicine and the Institute of Traditional Chinese Medicine have merged in recent years, so it can be said that people living here rarely need to spend money on medical treatment.
Tian Cai had only heard of it but had never seen it with his own eyes until this day.
It happened to be a day off, so she went to the post office to pick up the package sent by Grandpa Tian.
He didn't know that he had changed his address and mailed the things to the Kaoshan Village Sanatorium, or that Yang Zhengping had mailed them to her again.
The package is not big, but it is heavy. I don’t know what is inside. If it is drunken dates again, will it go bad after so many days?
When Tian Cai reached the school gate and was still looking down at his package, he heard a loud female voice.
"Mom, please bear with me for a while. I have to choose a reliable person for you."
The aunt was pushing a wheelchair and wandering around the school gate, her eyes searching the students coming in and out. She looked at several of them without saying a word.
"You said it's hard to find one now, and you can't even look at students based on age. For example, the person I just asked looked to be in his thirties, so I thought he was a teaching assistant. But he turned out to be a first-year student. I don't dare to ask him!"
The old lady had a sallow complexion and had been sitting in a wheelchair. Upon hearing this, she continued to groan, indicating that she was in real pain.
Seeing that the old lady was really upset, the aunt thought that she might as well not be so picky and find someone who looked a little more reliable. She looked around and saw Tian Cai who was looking at her.
"Hey? This girl is so pretty!" The aunt's eyes lit up and she hurriedly pushed the person over.
"Classmate, are you seeing a patient?"
Tian Cai didn't expect that she would come to her. She pointed at her nose in disbelief and asked, "Me?"
"Yes, yes, it's you," the auntie hurriedly pushed the old lady closer to Tian Cai, "You're a pretty girl, and you should be good at treating illnesses too!"
The aunt was about to continue when she suddenly remembered the boy and hesitated, "Are you one of the new students who came in the spring?"
Tian Cai shook his head, "No."
When the aunt heard this, she slapped her thigh with joy and said, "Then I'll find you!"
"Come and take a look at my mother-in-law. She always complains about stomachache. What's the reason?" The aunt stopped the wheelchair in front of Tian Cai and took out a hand-sewn "pulse pillow" from the back very knowledgeably.
Well, the equipment is quite complete.
Tian Cai remembered what the old professor had said before, and immediately understood the identities of the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law. They were most likely here for free medical treatment.
There's still time, so it's okay to take a look.
Several people sat down on the bench nearby, and Tian Cai took their pulse on the spot.
The old lady kept saying "ouch, ouch".
The aunt looked at Tian Cai's fair and tender profile, with her trembling eyelashes.
I sighed in my heart, Oh my God, this little girl looks like the fairy in the painting, so beautiful!
She is not well educated and only knows how to describe someone as "good-looking".
Tian Cai took an unusually long time to take the patient's pulse this time, so long that even the aunt, who had seen many medical students taking their time during their treatments, became a little impatient.
She felt a little regretful, regretting that she shouldn't have chosen such a young girl. If she hadn't met the right person for a long time, she wouldn't have chosen her.
Is this girl a fool?
At this time, Tian Cai withdrew her hand. She had basically understood the old lady's condition and turned to the aunt. "The old lady's stomach condition is not serious. She hasn't gone to the toilet for several days. There is too much feces in her stomach. She just needs to take some laxatives and go to the toilet."
The old lady who had been groaning just now suddenly stopped making any sound. It seemed, it seemed that she really hadn't urinated for several days?
"I've been there several times but I can't figure out what's going on." The old lady, having finally met someone who knew the situation, ignored the embarrassment and hurriedly asked.
"Older people tend to suffer from constipation to some degree. As we age, our metabolism slows down, affecting the normal digestive motility of our gastrointestinal tract, making constipation more likely. And there's another crucial point," Tian Cai pointed to her legs. "Because your legs are not in good condition and you lack physical activity, this has a greater impact on gastrointestinal motility. A normal person can alleviate this by walking around every day, which is why you experience bloating and difficulty defecating."
The old lady suddenly realized that ever since she started using the wheelchair last summer, she has been unable to move her hands and knees, and she is almost suffocating to death.
Seeing that Tian Cai spoke so clearly, the aunt next to her changed her opinion of her a lot. It seemed that she was a person with real ability.
"Then what should my mother do? Is she just going to have to take medicine? Doesn't that mean she'll have to take medicine all the time?"
The aunt asked several questions in a row.
Tian Cai was unhurried. "There are many ways to do this. In addition to taking some medicine to promote defecation, you can also do massage. This requires certain techniques, but it is not difficult. I can teach you. Go back and massage the old lady for more than ten minutes every day."
The aunt swallowed, a little unsure, "Can I do it?"
Tian Cai nodded. "The massage technique is not difficult. It just requires some strength and positioning. You can do it."
When the aunt heard that it only required strength and positioning, she thought it wasn't that difficult. She just practiced slowly according to the instructions. "Okay then!"
"Another method is acupuncture. This requires using acupuncture to stimulate acupuncture points to relax the muscles and tendons, unblock the meridians, and harmonize the qi and blood. You can't do this at home. If you want to insert needles, well—"
Tian Cai thought about it and said, "If the old lady doesn't mind people watching her while she's getting the injection, you can push her to the school for the injection."
