Chapter 219

The pregnant woman said: "She said her body was cold. She didn't feel warm even after sleeping like usual at night. She kept saying she was cold..."

Qi Leyi listened quietly and asked questions from time to time.

It was learned that the patient had muscle pain, shortness of breath, tired heart and heartbeat, and always felt out of breath.

Likes to sit quietly but is unwilling to move, has chest pain, does not want to eat, has delayed menstruation, is light in quantity and is dark in color.

The pregnant woman was very detailed, and she was very afraid that she would make mistakes in some aspects, causing the doctor to make a wrong diagnosis.

She had read a book about this before when she was resting at home, so she had always been very careful.

After the pregnant woman finished speaking, she said, "Doctor Qi, do you think my mother might have bronchitis?"

Qi Leyi said: "Not necessarily. Your mother often catches colds easily. It should be Yang deficiency."

The pregnant woman was stunned and said, "Dr. Qi, what is Yang deficiency?"

Generally speaking, she heard about kidney deficiency the most, but this was the first time she heard about yang deficiency.

Qi Leyi said: "Yang deficiency means that the person's body's Yang Qi is weak and weak. As it is said in "Su Wen", 'Yang deficiency means external cold.'"

"You seem to be afraid of the cold. Lack of warmth in your limbs is the main symptom of yang deficiency."

Qi Leyi said: "This Yang Qi is like the sun..."

The woman suddenly realized, "Dr. Qi, I understand, this is like the difference between summer and winter. In winter, the sun is far away from us and there is not enough Yang energy, so it is very cold."

Seeing her being so polite, Qi Leyi nodded: "That's what you mean."

Yang deficiency is further divided into heart yang deficiency, spleen yang deficiency, kidney yang deficiency, etc.

Heart yang deficiency is prone to insomnia, dreaminess, and restlessness.

Loose stools and loss of appetite are mostly due to spleen yang deficiency.

Deficiency of kidney yang will often cause pain in the waist and legs or cold hands and feet, making it easy to feel tired.

But what the situation is, you still need to go to the hospital.

Qi Leyi continued: "So your mother has Yang deficiency and weak defense. She cannot resist the invasion of wind and cold, so she catches cold easily."

The pregnant woman had a look of understanding in her eyes.

She listened and used her own thinking to understand.

Yang Qi is the city wall. Now that the city wall is not strong, it is easy for bandits to enter the city.

Well, yes, that's it.

The pregnant woman silently gave herself a thumbs up in her heart. Being young means being young and having a bright mind.

Qi Leyi said: "And your mother's cough and shortness of breath are caused by a cold. This is caused by deep cold in the lungs, and external wind and cold enter and attach to it, causing cough and breath."

"So medicines that clear away heat and detoxify cannot cure it, so I won't prescribe it to you."

The pregnant woman nodded, "Dr. Qi, since we have come to see you, we must believe you. We can prescribe whatever you say. We have no objection."

Qi Leyi nodded, then looked at the patient's tongue and then checked for pulse.

The tongue is light red and the coating is yellow and white.

The pulse is tight and thin.

It can be seen that I did not make a wrong diagnosis. It was wind-cold caused by external factors, coming from the sun and entering Shaoyin's wheezing and coughing.

It should be treated by warming the meridians and dispersing cold.

Use Ephedra, Aconite and Asarum Decoction.

Qi Leyi said to the pregnant woman and aunt: "There are ephedra and aconite in the prescription. You don't have to be afraid, and don't change it. Just drink it as usual."

"We have had patients before who lost ephedra and their condition worsened, so I still want to ask you here."

If you pick out ephedra and aconite after taking the medicine back, it will definitely cause the medicine to be incorrect.

The pregnant woman looked at her mother.

The aunt coughed and said, "Dr. Qi, it doesn't matter, you just prescribe it. When I was young, I often took epithelial tablets, and I'm still fine now."

Qi Leyi nodded, and then started to prescribe medicine, and said: "I prescribed two doses in total. For the first dose, use child feces as a dipping agent to drink it, but for the second dose, you don't need it."

The pregnant woman was stunned and asked hurriedly: "Doctor Qi, is child urine what we often call child urine?" Qi Leyi said: "Yes."

The pregnant woman suddenly felt nauseous and said, "Dr. Qi, is this bad?"

Qi Leyi said: "There is nothing wrong with it. In fact, this is also a kind of traditional Chinese medicine. The dosage is not large, just a small cup is enough. When the time comes, you can't drink it when you pour it in."

For people who drink traditional Chinese medicine, it is not only bitter but bitter, even pouring a cup of child urine into it will not help.

Just saying that there will be a grudge in my heart.

Therefore, many people drink traditional Chinese medicine without checking the ingredients and just drink it.

As the saying goes, out of sight is out of mind.

The pregnant woman said: "Dr. Qi, what's the use of this? I've seen before that some people boiled eggs with child urine. They didn't eat the eggs, but drank the soup."

Anyway, if it were her, let alone the soup, she wouldn't even touch the eggs.

Qi Leyi explained: "Generally speaking, it can be taken orally or externally."

"It can be taken orally to nourish yin and reduce fire, and it can be used externally to treat bruises, bruises, and red and swollen eyes."

In fact, children's urine has always been the medicine for blood disorders.

When a boy is under one month old, it is best to urinate first in the morning.

But it’s hard to find children under one month old. Boys under ten years old are everywhere.

The reason why Qi Leyi ordered children's urine to be used as medicine is to make the deficient heat go down.

This was explained in the "Compendium of Materia Medica".

It is cold, tastes salty, and is non-toxic.

Treat cold, heat, headache and warm air.

A boy is less filthy, so he is particularly good.

Qi Leyi said: "Don't worry, I won't prescribe medicine to you randomly, otherwise I wouldn't have so many patients coming to see me."

Everyone is not a fool. You will know whether you can do it or not after one or two treatments.

No one's money comes from the strong wind. If you can't cure it, they will keep looking for you.

Not only wasting money, but also suffering.

When the pregnant woman heard this, she said with a look of embarrassment on her face: "Doctor Qi, how old do you want your child to be?"

Qi Leyi said: "As long as they are under ten years old, it is probably not easy to find those before the full moon."

The pregnant woman raised her eyebrows and asked hurriedly: "Is it okay if there is no full moon?"

Qi Leyi said: "Okay."

The pregnant woman was overjoyed and said, "My sister's baby is only one month old in about a week. I'll ask her when I get back."

Qi Leyi said: "When you take it, remember not to use the front and back parts, just a short section in the middle."

"Only use it on the first dose of medicine, not the second dose."

Qi Leyi was afraid that they had forgotten, so he repeated it again.

The pregnant woman wrote down the prescriptions one by one, and left the clinic with her aunt.

Seeing this, Gu Qiu called for the next patient.

A girl came in. She was in good spirits, walked like the wind, and spoke with great energy.

Qi Leyi didn't see anything on his face, so he asked, "What's wrong with you?"

The girl said: "Dr. Qi, I often suffer from insomnia during this period."

Qi Leyi's eyes narrowed, and when he looked carefully, his expression didn't look like that of someone who often suffers from insomnia.

Qi Leyi said: "Tell me carefully."

The girl said: "I wake up at eight o'clock every morning."

Qi Leyi twitched, "Girl, it's time to wake up at eight o'clock!"
