I can hear the voice of Chinese medicine

Chapter 159: A prescription to “wash away” chronic herpes zoster

"Is the Dr. Xiao Lu you are talking about the one who treats patients at Qiushi Street Health Center?"

Fan Yazhi turned around and asked.

Bao Weiya grinned: "Are you a patient of Dr. Xiao Lu?"

Bao Weiya knew something about Lu Xuan's situation. I heard Director Wu Dingzhong mentioned it. Although Lu Xuan has superb medical skills, his reputation in Liannan Traditional Chinese Medicine Association is not great, or he has no reputation in the first place. People who know him Not much, even none.

Logically speaking, there should be very few patients who come to Liannan Traditional Chinese Medicine Association who know Lu Xuan and would sign up for Lu Xuan.

In addition, Lu Xuan himself is very young and not well-known, so patients will naturally not call him.

This would only be possible unless the patients at the health center knew that Lu Xuan was having a consultation here.

Unexpectedly, Bao Weiya asked confidently, but what she got was Fan Yazhi shaking her head: "No, I just heard a friend mention Dr. Xiao Lu before. I remember that Dr. Xiao Lu has never come to Liannan Traditional Chinese Medicine Association for consultation before. Yes?"

"No."

Bao Weiya explained patiently: "Dr. Xiao Lu only received our invitation last week. To be honest, this is the second time he has come for a consultation. Not many people know him. In addition, Dr. Xiao Lu has previously There was no publicity at the health center, and the patients at the health center didn't know about him, so naturally not many people called him.

If you want to take a look, I suggest you go up and ask first. If Dr. Xiao Lu says it's okay, it will be the same when you come down to register. Anyway, there are no people in the morning, and only in the afternoon will patients register online. "

When Fan Yazhi heard this, she quickly thanked Bao Weiya. After telling the old lady, she trotted up to the second floor alone.

249 Consulting Room.

Lu Xuan came back from Wu Dingzhong's office. After drinking a few cups of black tea, his mental state improved a lot. He didn't sleep much all night. At this time, he had already passed the time of sleepiness. He had nothing to do. Taking advantage of the fact that there were no patients, Lu Xuan simply A man closed the door and read a medical book in the consulting room.

Especially the medical books of the Vulcan Sect, he asked Wu Dingzhong for two copies.

Although Wu Dingzhong is not a doctor of traditional Chinese medicine, or even a doctor, there are a lot of medical books in the office, especially the number of traditional Chinese medicine books. Lu Xuan saw that there were two books, "The True Biography of Medical Principles" and "Yuan Tong" written by Zheng Qin'an. , I suddenly became interested, the fatigue on my body was dispelled, and I was full of energy.

Just when Lu Xuan was studying "The True Biography of Medical Theory" written by Zheng Qin'an seriously, there was a knock on the door suddenly. Lu Xuan said without raising his head: "Please come in."

Fan Yazhi gently pushed the door open and saw a young man sitting inside wearing a white coat and reading a book in his hand. She asked softly: "Is this Dr. Lu?"

Lu Xuan looked up and saw a woman in her 50s standing at the door, so he asked, "Auntie, are you looking for me?"

"Are you Dr. Lu Xuan?"

"Yes, I am Lu Xuan."

Seeing that the young man sitting inside was Lu Xuan, Fan Yazhi immediately walked in with a smile and asked, "Doctor Lu, I have something to ask you first."

"You say."

"My old lady has a lot of blisters on her back and right flank, which is herpes zoster. I would like to ask if you are good at treating this disease. If so, I will go down and register and bring the old lady up."

"Shingles?"

"Yeah, shingles."

"If you can see it, just go and register. By the way, the old lady must be quite old, right?" Lu Xuan glanced at Fan Yazhi. She was about fifty at least. At this age, the old ladies in the family were probably in their seventies or eighties.

Fan Yazhi smiled and said: "More than 80."

"The old lady lives longer than she should!"

Lu Xuan hurriedly congratulated, but the next moment he said: "Why don't you let the old lady come up? Just put in your number, and I'll go down and check the old lady's pulse to see what's going on. This will save her the trouble of climbing up and down." It’s not easy for the elderly.”

Fan Yazhi had always heard Lu Huilan say that Lu Xuan was so kind and treated patients like relatives and friends. Before, she thought Lu Huilan's words were a bit exaggerated. How could any doctor be like this? Even if he was kind, he was not that kind. !
But after seeing it with her own eyes this time, Fan Yazhi knew that what Lu Huilan said was true.

So kind!

Too polite!

She was so polite that she couldn't adapt to it for a while. In the end, she could only shake her head and said: "No, no, I will register my number in a while and bring the old lady up. Although my old lady is a bit older, her body is still strong." It’s okay, her family lives on multiple floors and she has to climb up and down every day, so this floor is nothing to her.”

After Fan Yazhi finished speaking, she ran outside the clinic.

Seeing the other person running like a rabbit, Lu Xuan waved to call him back, but after thinking about it, he put down his hand. There is a registration hall on the first floor and a place to get medicine. There are many people. Plus today is On Saturdays, there are even more people. It’s not an exaggeration to say it’s a sea of ​​people.

When treating the other party on the first floor, it is a trivial matter whether he will be affected or not. The main thing is that the other party is an old lady. You can't let her lift up her clothes in front of so many people, right?
Old ladies also want to save face.

As soon as he thought of this, Lu Xuan turned around and returned to his seat.

Not long after sitting at the table, Fan Yazhi led the old lady to the door of the consulting room.

When the old lady saw a young man sitting in the consulting room, she was stunned: "Yazhi, what's going on?"

Fan Yazhi introduced with a smile: "This is why you didn't want to see Dr. Lu before because you thought he was young and didn't receive an invitation from the Liannan Traditional Chinese Medicine Association. Now he has come to the Liannan Traditional Chinese Medicine Association for a consultation. This always meets your requirements. Alright?"

The old lady didn't react at first, but when she came to her senses, her face suddenly turned red, and she said angrily: "You kid, how could you ever embarrass your mother like this? Let's just talk about these things ourselves. Well, you’re still saying that even though Dr. Lu is here, aren’t you trying to embarrass me on purpose?”

Fan Yazhi also knew the old lady's temper. Most likely she wasn't really angry at this time, but it was a bit shameful to say this in front of the person involved.

Lu Xuan also heard the meaning of Fan Yazhi's words at this time. The two of them had called him before, just because he was attending a consultation in the health center, and because he was young, the old lady naturally didn't want to believe it. She didn't expect him to come. Liannan Traditional Chinese Medicine Association, he still looked at it, and he felt a little embarrassed.

Seeing the embarrassment on the old lady's face, Lu Xuan interrupted: "Old lady, it doesn't matter. We are young, so you will naturally have doubts. This is human nature, but since you are here, let me show you Look, if you really can’t help it, how about you find another way?"

Lu Xuan's words gave the old lady a step down. The old lady was also a human being. How could she not hear it? She quickly said: "Dr. Lu, we are all proud of him."

"I'm sorry, Doctor Xiao Lu."

The old lady apologized and walked into the consulting room. After sitting down, she didn't forget to glare at Fan Yazhi who was standing behind her.

Fan Yazhi smiled indifferently. It was not easy to make the old lady angry even once. Usually, the juniors like them were so angry that they couldn't laugh or cry. They couldn't say anything. After all, the old lady was already so old, and some children had normal tempers. Moreover, with such an old lady here, who wouldn’t treat her like a treasure?
No one would be angry because of the old lady's childish temper. It's just that sometimes, when she doesn't understand the old lady's behavior, she will always make some jokes, and in the end everyone will laugh bitterly.As soon as the old lady sat down, Lu Xuan asked about her situation.

She had heard Fan Yazhi mention it just now, but he had to see it with his own eyes to see how it developed.

The old lady was also uncooperative. She got up and turned around, showing Lu Xuan the condition on her back and the blisters on her right flank.

Lu Xuan took a look and nodded gently: "I'll take your pulse first, and then look at your tongue."

"Old lady, how old are you this year?"

"87."

"You are so lucky for your advanced age. With your mental state, you will have no problem living to be a hundred years old."

Lu Xuan chatted with the old lady while observing her condition.

"How can I live to be a hundred years old? This disease has almost cured me of the old lady. I have been undergoing treatment for more than a year, but there is no improvement. It keeps recurring and almost never stops. No matter how bad it is, old lady I can live to be ninety, which is considered good, and I can live to be a hundred years old." The old lady has a good attitude, and she can have a very lively chat with grandchildren like Lu Xuan, and it can be seen that the old lady is very relaxed and chatting with her Lu Xuan just talked about everyday things.

After checking the old lady's pulse, Lu Xuan looked at Fan Yazhi: "Auntie, what kind of medicine did the old lady use when she saw Western medicine before?"

"I have used anti-viral, interferon, analgesic and other methods, but they don't work." Fan Yazhi thought for a while and said.

"The old lady was helpless. She had been treated by Western medicine for a year, but she didn't feel any better, so she came to seek help from Chinese medicine. The old lady's wish was as long as it didn't hurt. If the pain continued like this, she wouldn't want to spend another minute. alive.

We hear that she is dying every day, and we are a bit dumbfounded. You said she is so healthy, let alone live a hundred years. She will definitely live for another three to five years. She has to live or die. She was asked to see a traditional Chinese medicine doctor before. Well, I didn’t want to, so I went to the Liannan Traditional Chinese Medicine Association again this time. "

Lu Xuan expressed his understanding, although Chinese medicine has some natural and inherent flaws.However, as long as we exploit its strengths and avoid weaknesses and make good use of its strengths, it will still be a powerful tool for the benefit of the people, and even in some aspects, it will be stronger than Western medicine.

This is beyond doubt.

After asking about the old lady's physical condition, Lu Xuan then chatted with the old lady while burying his head in writing about the old lady's condition in the medical record:

Upon examination, we saw clusters of blisters on the right hypochondrium and back.There are local erythema and pigmentation, and the pain is very severe and tingling.The patient has a red tongue with yellow and greasy coating, stringy and rapid pulse, dry stool and poor appetite.Considering that the old man is old and lacks righteousness, and the evil poison has been entrenched in the skin for a year, it can be said that it is deep-rooted. The method of internal cleansing and external dispersion should be used in conjunction with the two aspects.

A red tongue with yellow and greasy coating and a rapid pulse are obviously signs of dampness and heat.

Dry and hard stools are caused by the consumption of dampness and heat, which damages the Yin and body fluids and affects the distribution of body fluids.

Loss of appetite is caused by dampness and heat blocking the middle burner, preventing stomach Qi from falling and spleen from rising.According to traditional Chinese medicine, the accumulation of damp, hot and evil poison in the skin is the cause of shingles.Therefore, clearing away heat and removing dampness is the only way to treat it.

"Dr. Lu, is there any good way to relieve the pain for this old lady? She has taken so many Western medicines and applied all the ones that should be applied, but it does not relieve the pain at all. Seeing the old lady like this every day makes us feel sad, but the old lady can't bear it. It's big, and usually it doesn't hurt. It's a little better during the day, but it's terrible at night. The blisters on her back are so painful that the old lady can only sleep on her stomach, but she can't sleep on her stomach. The old lady's pain has really been visible to the naked eye for a year. Weight loss." Fan Yazhi looked worried.

Speaking of pain, the old lady didn't hold back, she nodded and said: "Indeed, I really can't sleep at night. The pain makes me wish I could die early. I don't have to suffer, and we don't ask for a cure. I have been undergoing treatment for so long but it still hasn’t been cured, and it’s unrealistic to want to cure it. As long as we can ensure that it doesn’t hurt, then thank God.”

Hearing this, Lu Xuan knew that the old lady didn't have much confidence in treatment. The reason why she switched from Western medicine to Chinese medicine was probably because the younger members of the family insisted on treating the old lady. Otherwise, given the old lady's temper, she might not be able to treat her. I'll think about it.

Facing the old lady's unconfident words, Lu Xuan smiled and comforted him: "Old lady, don't say anything discouraging, we must cure it if we want to. Pain relief alone is useless, and you also said that after eating so much Many painkillers are useless, and the pain keeps recurring, proving that pain relief alone only treats the symptoms, and in the end even the symptoms cannot be treated.

I think you have heard that Western medicine treats the symptoms, and Chinese medicine treats the symptoms. Now that we are here, we have to believe in the things passed down by our ancestors, the wisdom that has been passed down to this day after thousands of years. If you don’t even have this ability , then you underestimate Chinese medicine too much. "

"Can it really be cured?" The old lady obviously didn't believe it.

"In this way, I will prescribe a medicine for you. You can drink it when you go back. You will know if it has any effect after drinking it for a few days." Lu Xuan said with a smile.

The old lady was doubtful and said: "Okay, I'll go back and give it a try. If it's really cured, I'll send you a banner as soon as possible."

Lu Xuan smiled and said nothing, immersed himself in writing the prescription:

Gentian 15g, Gardenia jasmine 30g, Scutellaria 15g, Bupleurum 15g, Plantain 30g, Alisma 30g, Akebia 15g, Rehmannia glutinosa 30g, Angelica sinensis 15g, Red peony root 30g , 15 grams of Chuanxiong, 15 grams of Schizonepeta, 15 grams of Fangfeng, 15 grams of Ashwagandha, 15 grams of Angelica dahurica, 3 grams of Asarum, 15 grams of mint, 10 grams of licorice, decoction in water.

After writing it down, Lu Xuan had no choice but to register it into the system by himself because he had no assistant.

Then he returned the medical insurance card to Fan Yazhi: "The medicine has been prescribed. You go down and pay, and just wait to get the medicine. You can also boil the medicine here, but you have to mention it to the staff when paying, otherwise it will be defaulted It doesn’t take the place of decoction.”

"Thank you Dr. Lu, I understand."

Fan Yazhi quickly thanked her, and then led the old lady down from the second floor to the first floor to pay for the medicine.

Lu Xuan, on the other hand, was lost in thought while looking at the prescription he prescribed on the computer screen.

Those who understand Chinese medicine can probably guess what prescription Lu Xuan just made additions and subtractions from when they saw the first medicine.

In fact, if you read any textbook on traditional Chinese medicine dermatology, you will find that for herpes zoster, the first oral prescription that traditional Chinese medicine thinks of is Longdan Xiegan Decoction.

Gendan Xiegan Decoction is a compatibility in the "Collection of Medical Prescriptions". The original prescription consists of gentian, skullcap, gardenia, Alisma, Akebia, angelica, rehmannia, Bupleurum, raw licorice, and plantain.

Its function is to clear away heat and dampness, nourish yin and blood.Among them, gentian clears away dampness and heat, scutellaria baicalensis and gardenia clear away heat and dampness, Alisma, Plantain and Akebia dilute water, making it possible for heat evils to be retreated, and Rehmannia glutinosa and angelica nourish yin and blood, preventing the products that clear away dampness and heat from damaging yin.Bupleurum and scutellaria baicalensis soothes the liver and promotes gallbladder.

However, on this basis, Lu Xuan used another method.

This method is to disperse the evil poison.

In the prescription prescribed by Lu Xuan, the remaining herbs, namely red peony root, Ligusticum chuanxiong, Schizonepeta, parsnips, Qianghuo, Angelica dahurica, asarum, and mint, were actually made from Chuanxiong tea with some additions and subtractions.

Ligusticum chuanxiong tea powder can dispel wind and relieve pain.In the prescription, there are many medicines for dispersing, relieving superficial symptoms, and dispelling wind and dehumidification.

The medicinal properties of this type of medicine are all directed outward.

This means that the damp, hot and turbid poisons accumulated in the skin are drawn out and released to achieve the effect of attracting the evil spirits to go out.In this way, it can clear away heat and dampness on the inside, and lure evil spirits out on the outside. When the two are combined into one, it can achieve an extraordinary effect.

One prescription to "wash away" chronic shingles.

From this point of view, it can also reflect the advantages of traditional Chinese medicine in treating such diseases, which is also difficult to achieve with Western medicine.
