Chapter 78 Xuefu Zhuyu Decoction for Diabetes

The pulse is thin and astringent.

"Let me check my tongue!" Ding Changsheng said with a smile after finishing his pulse diagnosis.

"Hmm! Tongue bruises.

Your diabetes is different from Jensen’s. He has both yin and yang deficiency, while yours has blood stasis blocking the collaterals.

Do you usually have numbness and pain in your limbs? Ding Changsheng glanced at his tongue, then asked with a smile.

"Yes, yes, yes! My arms are numb and often tingling.

The hospital said that this is a complication of diabetes. "Henrik nodded in surprise.

"It is inaccurate to say that it is a complication. The numbness and tingling of your arm is a superficial symptom. You have blood stasis, which blocks the meridians of the limbs, which leads to numbness and pain.

Chinese medicine says that if there is generality, there will be no pain, and if generalization will not cause pain.

The meridians on your arm are not smooth, and the flow of Qi and blood to the arm is blocked, and numbness and pain will naturally appear. "Ding Changsheng tried to explain in a language that Henryk could understand.

Many people don't want to see Chinese medicine because they don't understand the diseases and causes of diseases that Chinese medicine talks about.

Confused, I don't know what's wrong with me, I've been cured after drinking two doses of traditional Chinese medicine, but what's wrong with me?Until well, I don't know.

Therefore, many Chinese medicine practitioners now begin to use some words from Western medicine, or try to use words that patients can understand to explain the disease.

"Then my disease can be cured?"

"Yes, I will give you some acupuncture to dredge the meridians, and then take a few decoctions for promoting blood circulation and dredging collaterals. After three doses, you will see the effect." Ding Changsheng wrote down the prescription while talking.

"Sister Lin Lin, please grab three sets of Xuefu Zhuyu Decoction with 15 grams of flavored astragalus, 9 grams of Paoshanjia, and 5 grams of whole scorpion." Ding Changsheng explained to Zhou Linlin who was standing behind him.

Now, Zhou Linlin, Zhang Xin, and Wang Linna have implemented a shift system. One person is practicing behind Ding Changsheng, responsible for dispensing medicine and so on, and the other two are decocting medicine in the backyard to shoot short videos.

Rotate every day.

"Why add astragalus?" Zhou Linlin asked Ding Changsheng in Chinese.

"Adding astragalus is to nourish qi and blood, and because his qi and blood are blocked, it is natural to add astragalus to achieve the effect of nourishing qi and blood.

When you have nothing to do, think about the formulas of various soups and medicines. You must read them word by word.

In this way, when prescribing medicine, when, and under what circumstances, the addition and subtraction can be done well. Ding Changsheng explained to Zhou Linlin in a low voice.

"Have you understood all the formulas of the prescriptions thoroughly?" Zhou Linlin asked back.

"No, every prescription is ever-changing. If I understand everything, then I will become a miracle doctor!" Ding Changsheng grinned.

"Mr. Ding, what are you talking about?" Henrik asked curiously, watching Ding Changsheng and Zhou Linlin communicate in Chinese.

This feeling of watching others speak without understanding a word is very uncomfortable.

"This is our intern Chinese medicine practitioner in Changshengtang. We are exchanging the medicine for your disease." Ding Changsheng explained with a smile.

"Henrik, do you need us to provide decoction service?" Ding Changsheng then asked.

"Decoction substitute? Do you use that kind of decoction machine for your decoction substitute?"

"No, we all use the traditional decoction method to decoct medicine!"

"Okay! Then I choose the decoction business! Chinese medicine is very magical, only traditional decoction can guarantee the effect of traditional Chinese medicine! The medicine decocted by the machine has no soul and cannot cure diseases!" Henryk really knows some Chinese medicine and Chinese medicine, Even better than some Chinese.

Also know the difference between machine decoction and traditional decoction.

"Henrik, you are this!" Ding Changsheng gave Henrik a thumbs-up, "Many Chinese people don't know the truth that machine-made medicine has no soul."

"When I was in the NBA, I heard from our team's health consultant that he is Chinese, a very powerful Chinese medicine doctor, and he is very good at treating bruises. Unfortunately, because of some things, he resigned as a health consultant He went back to China because of his post," Henryk said with some regret.

"Henrik, let's go to the treatment room, I will give you acupuncture!" Ding Changsheng said with a smile.

He now knows why Henrik's injuries left him with a disease that eventually led to diabetes.

It must be, the arm was injured, after Western medicine treatment, although the bones and muscles have healed under the X-ray and CT, the meridian stasis cannot be detected by the X-ray and CT.

After the muscles and bones healed, Henrik often felt numbness and pain due to the stasis of the meridians, and then took painkillers or antibiotics for anti-inflammatory and pain relief.

Taking anti-inflammatory painkillers for a long time, he will definitely not be able to continue playing basketball, and because of long-term medication, he will eventually cause insulin secretion disorders and eventually develop diabetes.

At the beginning, the condition was relatively mild, and it was only necessary to take some drugs to improve insulin secretion and hypoglycemic drugs to stabilize the condition.

However, diabetes is an irreversible disease in the treatment of western medicine.

That is, once you have diabetes, there is no way to treat it, and it will never be cured. You can only take medicine to maintain it.

At the beginning, it was small pills, hormone drugs such as hypoglycemic drugs. As time goes by, after the small pills and hypoglycemic drugs fail to work, insulin needs to be injected.

After taking insulin for a period of time, various complications began to appear.

Then treat various complications, use various drugs, and finally lead to the exacerbation of diabetes.

This is the whole process of western medicine treating diabetes.

"Henrik, I'm very sorry, our treatment bed is still too small, you can only make do with it, take off your shirt and lie down on the bed." Ding Changsheng explained with a smile.

Henrik, who was over two meters tall, was lying on the treatment bed with his feet sticking out of the bed.

"It's okay, it's fine!" Henrik was used to this kind of situation.

"Although Henrik's diabetes is caused by blood stasis blocking the collaterals, the Qi and blood flow is not smooth, but ultimately the disease is in the lungs, so acupuncture and moxibustion should still focus on regulating the operation of the internal organs, supplemented by dredging the meridians.

Acupuncture should be used at Feishu, Geshu, Weishu, Yishu, and Pishu to reconcile the yin and yang of the viscera, so that the clear qi rises and the turbid qi drops.

Only in this way can the goal of curing the root cause be achieved. Ding Changsheng gave Henrik the needle while explaining it to Zhou Linlin in Chinese.

In the theory of traditional Chinese medicine, temper is clear qi, which needs to be raised, and stomach qi is turbid qi, which needs to be lowered.

If the temper does not rise and the stomach qi does not fall, it means that yin and yang are reversed and diseases will breed.

According to Western medicine, disorders of the digestive system and endocrine system will naturally lead to various diseases.

Ding Changsheng is also fulfilling his previous promise, as long as Zhou Linlin and the others want to learn, they will teach without reservation.

Ding Changsheng didn't hold back on acupuncture and moxibustion or prescriptions from the four clinics. As for how much he could learn, it all depended on the talent and hard work of the three people.
