"However, it's getting cold, and ginger can help ward off the cold. Drinking ginger water during the day and adding some ginger when stir-frying dishes is also a good idea."
"you do not say."
Aunt Liu put down her basket and sat down in front of Yun Duoduo.
"Auntie, come here, let me take your pulse."
"Oh my, I'm so lucky! Today, the little clinic is personally taking my pulse."
Since Huichuntang opened, news of Yun Duoduo's superb medical skills quickly spread. Everyone was saying that the cute-looking but mature-speaking young doctor was very accurate in her diagnosis.
Unfortunately, the junior physician isn't at the clinic every day. If you happen to run into him when you go to the clinic, that would be a wonderful thing!
Upon hearing Yun Duoduo say that she needed to take the pulse, Aunt Liu stopped talking.
Knowing that talking might affect her pulse, she placed her right hand on the cushion. After a moment, Yun Duoduo gestured for her to switch to her other hand, and Aunt Liu placed her other hand on the cushion.
Yun Duoduo would sometimes raise a few fingers, sometimes lower a few fingers, and sometimes ask Aunt Liu to open her mouth so she could see her tongue.
"Yes, Aunt Liu, you have excessive liver fire and dampness in your body."
Aunt Liu was clearly an impatient person, and her tongue had a thick coating.
"I'll prescribe some herbal medicine for you. Please take it twice a day as prescribed."
"Try to relax, exercise more to sweat, and then soak your feet in hot water."
This is the only way to expel some of the dampness from the body.
"good."
Aunt Liu kept repeating Yun Duoduo's instructions.
"Young physician, how serious is the old lady's illness?"
Aunt Liu looked at Yun Duoduo with great concern.
"Aunt Liu, this situation isn't that serious. Out of ten people, eight of them have excessive dampness in their bodies."
"However, this person has a lot of liver fire and is easily angered. Aunt Liu, we need to regulate this."
Yun Duoduo recalled that in her past life, she saw many patients who were very healthy, but because they were easily angered, they developed serious health problems.
"Look, you have a lot of spots around your eyes, which are caused by excessive liver fire. Eat more leafy green vegetables."
"well."
Aunt Liu touched her face, silently remembering what Yun Duoduo had said.
"Xiaoying, go and get the medicine according to this prescription: two qian of Job's tears, two qian of red beans, and two qian of immature bitter orange bran..."
"yes."
"Thank you, I appreciate your help."
Xiaoying went to get her medicine, and Aunt Liu stood up and waited at the door, making room for the next patient.
"Little physician, my stomach hurts terribly, please prescribe some medicine for me."
A chubby middle-aged man walked into the clinic, hunched over, clutching his stomach with a pained expression on his face.
"Sit down quickly."
"Come on, let me see."
Yun Duoduo examined him carefully and said after a consultation, "Young man, you have indigestion. I will examine you and prescribe some medicine. You should be fine after taking it once or twice. Next time, don't eat so much."
"Okay, thank you for your trouble."
"That's what the fat guy said weakly."
With A Xiang's help, Yun Duoduo took out the silver needles, sterilized them with fire, and then inserted them into the fat man's acupoints such as Tianshu and Zhongwan. Seeing that the fat man's complexion had eased slightly, she pulled out the silver needles.
"Avoid spicy food for the next few days and eat a light diet."
"I'll prescribe you a medicine: astragalus, stir-fried atractylodes macrocephala, stir-fried hawthorn..."
Yun Duoduo threw down her pen after writing just a few words, saying, "Aunt Xiang, you write it."
Her handwriting was so incredibly ugly that even she couldn't stand it...
As Yun Duoduo spoke, A Xiang wrote down the prescription according to Yun Duoduo's instructions.
Xiaoying stood next to the medicine cabinet. After weighing out the medicinal herbs, she wrapped them in paper and handed them to the chubby man.
After seeing off the chubby guy, a tall and strong man sat down on the stool, leaning his upper body towards Yun Duoduo and taking up most of the table.
"Cough cough..."
The man coughed recklessly, without even covering his mouth with his hand.
Yun Duoduo frowned, quickly put on her homemade mask, and took out a few from the medicine box and handed them to A Xiang, Xiao Ying and Aunt Sheng.
The group looked at the object strangely, but seeing Yun Duoduo's determined eyes and anxious tone, they quickly put on masks as she instructed, without asking any further questions.
"Aunt Sheng, hurry and go to Wanwu Market to buy some face masks, oh no, I mean, buy some face veils!"
Aunt Sheng quickly took her money pouch from the counter and went to Wanwufang to buy a veil.
"Open your mouth, ah..."
Yun Duoduo gestured for the man to open his mouth so she could check for inflammation or swelling.
"ah……"
The man looked strong and healthy, but his throat and tongue were congested and had an unusually foul odor.
Do you sneeze often?
After saying that, Yun Duoduo cursed herself for being stupid; he had been coughing like that just now.
Sigh, this muscle memory.
"Yes, I sneeze, and sometimes I cough, and my chest hurts from coughing."
The man touched his ribs.
Yun Duoduo took out a thermometer, dripped a temperature reading on the man's head, glanced at the temperature, and quickly hid the thermometer back in the medicine box.
[38.5 degrees Celsius, that's a fever...]
Yun Duoduo inwardly cried out in alarm.
Oh no, winter is the season when large-scale flu outbreaks are most likely to occur.
The man didn't see what Yun Duoduo was holding clearly; he just thought something had flashed in front of his eyes.
Looking at Yun Duoduo's expression, he asked fearfully, "Is...is there no cure?"
"Ah, no, it can be cured."
"Xiaoying, get this man a bottle of cold medicine."
