This doctor is not short of money

Chapter 419
"You should be able to keep your feet, but you have to be mentally prepared that you won't be able to keep them."

Du Heng looked at Wu Shengnan's nervous appearance, and said softly, "Your foot is quite serious, now it depends on how fast you recover.

If the recovery is fast, your foot can still be saved. If the recovery is slow, the necrotic part has no possibility of recovery and can only be cut off.

But according to my prediction, at most it is cut in half. "

Cut in half?
Wu Shengnan was in a gloomy mood.

According to the current medical level, cutting in half may not affect my normal life, but I will definitely quit my current work department.

But Du Heng went on to say, "But it's also possible that only a few toes need to be cut off."

Wu Shengnan suddenly looked at Du Heng, his eyes brightened, "How many toes? How many?"

Du Heng smiled, "Maybe one, maybe five, it depends on your recovery, you have to cooperate well with my treatment."

This sentence is the real prediction in Du Heng's heart.

According to what I saw just now, although Wu Shengnan's soles did not improve, they did not continue to deteriorate.Du Heng felt that it was basically no problem to keep the soles of his feet, but it was a bit hard to say how many toes he could keep.

At the very least, that thumb is now like a dead branch, and there is a high probability that it will not be able to keep it.

When Wu Shengnan heard Du Heng say this, his mood was like a roller coaster.

But with the previous comparison, she could fully accept the loss of a few toes. Dang even simply nodded and promised Du Heng that he would definitely cooperate with the treatment.

With Mr. Wu Zhong by his side, Du Heng didn't say much, but started to help the nurse change the dressing again.

Although he also saw Wu Shengnan's expression of wanting to continue chatting with him, he turned his head and walked out of the ward after changing the medicine.

Outside the ward, he was stopped by Wu Shengnan's father and mother again, and asked about Wu Shengnan's situation carefully.

As a last resort, Du Heng told the two of them again what he said in the ward just now.

After getting away, Du Heng had just returned to the office, and Li Jianwei asked happily, "Xiao Du, it seems that your thinking and medication are correct."

Then he smiled softly, with a trace of complacency mixed in the smile, "You didn't see the expression on Director Chen's face after he left the house, it's so wonderful."

Du Heng smiled and said nothing, but when he was in the ward, seeing Director Chen's appearance, he felt very happy.

Li Jianwei smiled twice, stopped his smile, and asked Du Heng, "Xiao Du, according to the situation just now, the speed of medication seems to be unable to improve the condition of the patient's feet. Could it be that the feet really cannot be kept?"

"It's definitely too late to just use medicine, and at most it's going to save half of the feet."

Li Jianwei looked serious.

In fact, keeping the calf is already a success, but if the soles of the feet cannot be kept, according to the current situation, it is still a bit regrettable, "Then how do you think about it?"

Du Heng also became serious, found a stool and sat down and said, "Continue to use the plaster to improve the condition of Wu Shengnan's calf and feet today. Wait until tomorrow, I plan to use acupuncture to strengthen the stimulation, so that the blood supply to the legs can be restored faster .”

Li Jianwei leaned on the chair and meditated.

Since yesterday, his thinking has always been one step behind Du Heng.

At the beginning, when he considered taking it internally, he didn't take into account the topical ointment.

Especially when he saw Wu Shengnan's leg ulcers, he didn't even think about applying ointment externally.His concerns are similar to those of other western medicine doctors, he is afraid that the external application of ointment will directly act on the ulcer, which will increase the chance of infection.

But yesterday, after reading Du Heng's prescription for 'All God's Ointment', he came to his senses when he saw that it contained anti-inflammatory and muscle-promoting ingredients.

It's not that he doesn't know, but because he has formed a certain thinking inertia due to long-term internal medicine diagnosis and treatment, and has been influenced by Western medicine's treatment philosophy for so many years, he has never thought of applying external plaster at all.

Now I heard that acupuncture and moxibustion are also included, and the reason is almost the same.

In his long course of treatment, he has never used acupuncture.

Acupuncture and moxibustion is no longer an essential skill for treating diseases in traditional Chinese medicine, but is completely separated from decoction.

Doctors who come to see a doctor can prescribe decoctions, but very few of them know acupuncture.

Those who know how to treat diseases with acupuncture and moxibustion, and few can prescribe decoctions that cooperate with each other.

As far as he is concerned, let alone know how to use acupuncture, even in his daily life, he has no concept of using acupuncture at all.

Now that I think about it, it's really funny.

It has long been recorded in medical books that Chinese medicine has three treasures: a bowl of soup, a needle, and a stick of moxa.For all diseases, medicine is not enough, acupuncture is not enough, and moxibustion is necessary.

But now, as the director of the Department of Traditional Chinese Medicine and a professor of the University of Traditional Chinese Medicine, I don't have the idea of ​​three treasures to cooperate. I can imagine what the students I handed over will be like.

Sighing slightly, Li Jianwei felt very ashamed.

Because even if I want to understand this concept now, I am still powerless to change all this.

School education now separates dialectics, prescriptions, and acupuncture from teaching. Although I am a professor now, I can be regarded as a rolling pin for acupuncture and moxibustion—I don’t know anything about it.

I know acupuncture points and acupuncture methods, but I don’t know how to use them, I don’t know when to use them, and I don’t even have the consciousness to use them. This is the most powerless.

In the past, traditional Chinese medicine paid attention to one specialty and many abilities.One of the three treasures is a strength, and the other two can be used together even if you are not proficient.

But today's Chinese medicine, from the beginning of learning to the end of working, has become a specialty, but multi-functional can not be found.

Hey, in fact, look at those people who were selected as the national famous Chinese medicine practitioners, which one was elected because they only know the same thing?All of them are proficient in the same, and people who know both of the other two.

I should have known it a long time ago, but I deceived myself and others, never got to the bottom of it, and didn't want to go to the bottom of it.

The original simple question and answer between the two suddenly turned into Li Jianwei's self-reflection, which made Li Jianwei a little depressed.

After clearing up his mood, he asked Du Heng, "Are you sure?"

Du Heng nodded very firmly, "Yes, I thought about it all night last night. I have seriously thought about which acupuncture points to use, what is the sequence, and what methods are used.

So starting from tomorrow with acupuncture and moxibustion, I will try my best to restore the blood circulation in Wu Shengnan's feet within three days, otherwise it will be too late. "

Du Heng also leaned back on the chair, with a very firm tone, "In my plan, Wu Shengnan not only wants to keep his calf, but also the soles of his feet, and lose one or two toes at most.

If in the end, the foot is not saved or disabled, then for me, it is still a failure. "

Hearing Du Heng's words full of strong confidence, Li Jianwei didn't ask any more questions.

What he has to do now is to do all the logistical work for Du Heng and provide the most comprehensive support.

At this moment, his mood is particularly urgent.

He wished he could notify the school to go to work now, and help Du Heng go through all the admission procedures immediately. He was really afraid that something unexpected would happen and Du Heng would not be able to become his student.

After controlling his emotions, Li Jianwei asked, "Does the patient have any special arrangements today?"

Du Heng shook his head, "No, the externally applied ointment has been reapplied, just continue to take the decoction. After I come tomorrow morning, I will start acupuncture treatment."
