TCM in New York

Chapter 215
After everyone else left the treatment room, Ding Changsheng took out the acupuncture bag, lit the alcohol lamp, first roasted the acupuncture needles on the alcohol lamp, and then wiped it again with alcohol cotton.

Many people here in Laomei suspect that reusable acupuncture needles are unhygienic, so now many Chinese medicine clinics start to use disposable acupuncture needles for acupuncture.

However, Ding Changsheng didn't like to use that kind of acupuncture needles. He felt that those disposable acupuncture needles had no soul.

After sterilizing the acupuncture needles, Ding Changsheng quickly inserted the needles into Tumen's body.

"Mr. Ding, I can't feel my legs anymore!" Tumen shouted in a panic.

"This is a normal situation. The needles I just gave you are acupuncture anesthesia. I use acupuncture points to temporarily block the nerves, so I can't feel your left leg naturally.

Do not worry!There will not be any side effects, and it is safer than half-body anesthesia with anesthetics.

After I reposition your ankle, let your left leg regain feeling. Ding Changsheng explained with a smile.

After Ding Changsheng explained, he reached out and crushed the plaster cast on Tumen's ankle, and then untied the straps inside.

When it was opened and snapped, Ding Changsheng almost couldn't help cursing out loud.

Because the bone reset that Tumen had done before was done in a Western medicine hospital.

Doctor trained in Western medicine performs bone reduction, all is to cut subcutaneous tissue, muscle, periosteum tissue, and then carries out bone reduction.

They don't know how to reset directly.

Grandma's, the key is that you have cut them all, and the reset can't be perfect, which is a bit rubbish.

Ding Changsheng washed his hands, then reached out and gently touched Tumen's ankle.

Not wearing gloves, wearing gloves, affects his perception.

After sensing the condition of the ankle bone with his hands, Ding Changsheng used his fingers to crush the original injured part of Tumen's ankle bone, including the part that had just been reset and had not had time to heal, and crushed it again.

Let the entire ankle bone be broken evenly. If you take a picture at this time, you can see that Tumen's ankle bone is simply a comminuted fracture.

If it is replaced by Western medicine, it is directly hopeless, and a large number of doctors will recommend amputation.

After crushing the ankle bone evenly, Ding Changsheng touched the ankle bone lightly again, felt it for a while, and then began to reset the ankle bone bone by hand.

Ding Changsheng's hands seemed to have magical powers. Under Ding Changsheng's fingers, those shattered bones were pieced together one by one, and finally became a complete ankle bone.

If you use X-rays or CT to monitor Tumen's ankle bones, you will feel like watching a movie. Tumen's ankle bones seem to come alive, like a well-disciplined army, and they will automatically come to where he should be piece by piece. There is no deviation in the position where it appears.

It seemed very simple, Ding Changsheng's hand was on Tumen's foot, touching it lightly, his fingers trembling slightly, nothing else.

However, if you turn your head to look at Ding Changsheng's face again, you will find that it is not easy at all. Ding Changsheng's face is very serious, and after a while, sweat is already visible on Ding Changsheng's forehead.

It took more than an hour for Ding Changsheng to complete the restoration of Tumen's bones.

After wiping off his sweat, Ding Changsheng went to wash his hands again, and then began to apply ointment on Tumen's ankle, then gently wrapped the ankle with a bandage, and took four wooden boards to fix the entire ankle.

Western medicine now generally likes to use plaster for fixation. This is relatively simple and the fixation is also stable.

In fact, TCM orthopedics is now using plaster for fixation.

Fixing with wooden boards is also a science, and it is a very technical fixation method. Now only some old orthopedic doctors know how to fix with wooden boards.

Fixing with small boards is more stable than fixing with plaster.

Wood fixing has many advantages over gypsum fixing. For example, wood fixing has better air permeability, while plaster fixing is airtight. When the plaster is removed, the smell is stronger than the smell of durian in a microwave oven.

Another one is that the wooden board is fixed and easy to disassemble, which is more suitable for the situation where the dressing needs to be changed every day.

After Ding Changsheng fixed Tumen, he took out the silver needle for him.

"I can feel my legs!" Tumen exclaimed in surprise.

"Well, Mr. Tumen, for the last week, you must not get your feet wet, you must not touch it, and no matter what others say, don't untie the board.

Because the wooden board is fixed with a specific method, it cannot be restored by outsiders if it is untied.

This point has been clearly stated in the letter of commitment. If an outsider unlocks the plank, then you will be in breach of the contract.

Therefore, any problems that arise are entirely your responsibility.

Not only do you have to pay liquidated damages, but I will also refuse to continue treating you! Ding Changsheng reminded seriously.

"I understand, Mr. Ding, I won't listen to other words, let alone untie the board and let them check!" Tumen promised earnestly.

Although Tumen is an NBA player with well-developed limbs, he is not a fool.

He naturally understood that Ma Sen's enthusiastic follow-up seemed to be watching Ding Changsheng's dispensing process, so there must be other plans.

"Huh? Mr. Ding, why don't my feet feel pain? It's cool, it doesn't hurt like before."

"In the ointment I prepared for you, in addition to the drug that promotes bone growth, there is also a pain-relieving drug. That's why you don't feel as much pain as before.

Just a little pain. "

"Yes, yes! It's just a little pain. If you don't pay attention, you won't feel it at all." Tumen nodded repeatedly.

"I'll also prescribe some decoctions for you to take internally, which also promote bone healing and strengthen muscles and bones." Ding Changsheng wrote down the condition, treatment plan, and prescription in the medical record while talking.

"Thank you Mr. Ding!"

"I provide traditional Chinese medicine for decoction and reset, and you can arrange someone to come over to get the liquid medicine in the afternoon." Ding Changsheng explained again.

"Okay! I'll arrange someone to come over in the afternoon." Tumen nodded.

When Ding Changsheng went out, he called Tumen's assistant in, helped him put on clothes for Tumen, and put Tumen on the wheelchair.

"Mr. Ding, this is 200 million!

If I can really heal my ankle and let me play again, I will donate another sum of money to the Changshengtang Charity Foundation. " Tumen handed a check of 200 million to Ding Changsheng, and solemnly promised.

"Then I would like to thank Mr. Tumen for his donation first!" Ding Changsheng was not polite, he took the check directly and said with a smile.

"You're welcome, I have great confidence in Mr. Ding's medical skills!
Thank you Brad, if it weren't for you, I might say goodbye to the NBA forever! Tumen sincerely thanked Bernardo Brad.

"Haha! Tumen, I can understand your feelings. I have felt that kind of despair, and I don't want the NBA to lose a very talented athlete."
