He said he was lying on the examination bed, but in fact the old man was kneeling on the examination bed. His waist could not be straightened at all, so he could only lie on the examination bed in a kneeling position.

After a physical examination, Zhang Yan was shocked. How much hardship would he have to endure to bend his waist so tired.

The patient's lumbar spine has been severely forward-flexed and deformed. Under Zhang Yan's palpation, the patient's lumbar spine is twisted like a twist.

Lumbar disc herniation compresses nerves, which in turn causes pain in the lower limbs and edema.

This disease is not accumulated over a year or two, but must be a disease that has been bent over many years, ten years or even longer.

Not only lumbar disc herniation, but also lumbar bone hyperplasia, accompanied by lumbar muscle strain.

I really don’t know how much pain I suffered before. It was not until my lower limbs were swollen and I couldn’t walk anymore, so I had to see a doctor.

"My uncle, what job is it?"

"I am a shoemaker. I have been an apprentice since I was eleven or twelve years old and have made shoes for my whole life." The old man was quite optimistic and talkative.

Yes.

The shoemaker needs to sit and work all the time, and to make it easier to work, he has to lean forward.

"You need hospitalization for this disease."

"This, that... Doctor, I heard that there is such painkiller injection. Just give me one injection." The old man said hesitantly.

Zhang Yan simply looked at the family members who accompanied the old man.

The old man's situation is very obvious, he just feels sorry for money.

"Dad, just listen to the doctor!

Doctor, we are hospitalized for treatment.

Can my dad be cured?” the old man’s son said.

"You should know that your father's illness is not something that can be caused by one or two years.

It is difficult to cure it.

Through treatment, you can eliminate the pressure on your lower limbs and take care of yourself." Zhang Yan thought for a while, but did not dare to make a promise, and said conservatively.

"Doctor, you just said that it is difficult to cure it, but it means that it can be cured, right?

Doctor, please, I must cure my dad.

He suffered a lifetime of hardship and raised me brother and sister.

No matter how much it costs, as long as my dad’s illness can be cured.

We will treat it if we sell the pot and sell it hard!" The old man's son heard what Zhang Yan meant, and excitedly grabbed Zhang Yan's hand and begged.

"No! I'm half-tied, why are I spending that money?

Doctor, just give me a painkiller injection." The old man yelled at him and was about to struggle to get out of bed.

"Uncle, pain relief is not effective for your disease.

In this way, I will give you a massage first to relieve your pain. Then you will discuss with your son whether to treat it." Zhang Yan quickly supported the old man and persuaded him.

"Okay! Doctor, listen to you!" When the old man heard that he could relieve the pain through massage, he no longer struggled to get out of bed.

Zhang Yan asked the old man to hang out and started giving him a waist massage.

Zhang Yan's current massage is to relax the sacral spine muscles and lumbar major muscles on both sides of the lumbar spine through massage. Due to the deformation of the lumbar spine, the muscles on both sides of the lumbar spine always remain tight and tightly wrap the lumbar spine.

This further aggravates the compression of the nerves by the lumbar spine.

While massaged, Zhang Yan turned to Lu Jun and ordered: "Please give the patient a physical therapy fee!"

He was embarrassed to let the Army follow him again, so he simply massaged the patient while asking the Army to issue a order and the patient's family to pay the money.

"Okay, doctor! Let's go and pay the money right away!" the old man's son said quickly.

Zhang Yan nodded, said nothing, and continued to give the old man a waist massage.

The old man's son was very filial. He trotted all the way and returned to the clinic with the documents.

It was at this moment that Zhang Yan raised his hand, took a step back, and smiled and said, "Okay, uncle, get up and try it. Is it much easier?"

"Really, it's much easier and it doesn't hurt that much!" The old man got off the bed by himself, shook his body, and said with a happy smile.

"Uncle, you are just temporarily relieved. If you want to treat, you have to be hospitalized." Zhang Yan persuaded again.

"Doctor, can you tell me how to treat it?"

"Through massage, traction and plaster, it can relieve the compression of the muscles on both sides of the lumbar spine and relieve muscle fatigue.

Then the bone hyperplasia is treated with drugs.

After a period of treatment, the deformation of the lumbar vertebrae joints is corrected through traditional Chinese medicine bone correction techniques.

The entire treatment takes about three to five months." Zhang Yan roughly explained his treatment plan.

In fact, there is another faster way to stop, which is traditional Chinese medicine massage and surgical treatment.

The muscles are unpacked by massage and then surgical correction is performed.

Unfortunately, lumbar surgery is at least a third-level surgery, and he won’t.

Only traditional Chinese medicine can be used to treat conservatively.

The reason why it takes so long is that the elderly not only have lumbar disc herniation, but also have bone hyperplasia and lumbar muscle strain. Even due to long-term compression of nerves and blood vessels, varicose veins in the lower limbs.

So, this is not a disease that can be treated quickly.

"That doctor, there is nothing else to do except this method?"

The old man's son looked at the old man in a little embarrassed manner. He would definitely not agree if he had spent so much treatment for such a long time.

"Through two weeks of massage and traction and plaster treatment, it can be relieved, and at least half a year to a year of pain will not be painful." Zhang Yan thought for a while and said.

"Doctor, please be hospitalized first!

How to treat it, let’s discuss it with my brothers.” The old man’s son finally chose to be hospitalized first.

The hospitalization slip was issued and the old man's son was asked to go to the hospital.

Watching the father and son leave, Zhang Yan shook his head.

This old man is really not easy for his whole life.

In the past, when describing how tired a person was, he often said that his waist was tired and bent.

This is a living example of bending your waist tightly.

Fortunately, it is quite filial to the old man's son's performance.

"Brother Zhang, that old man just now was so pitiful." Qian Hongying sighed.

“Life is not easy.

You feel that old man just now is pitiful, but he doesn't feel pitiful at all.

On the contrary, you didn’t see that there was a strong sense of pride and pride on the face of the old man.”

"Why?"

"Because he feeds the family through his own hands and helps his children get married and start a business.

He felt that his efforts were worth it.”

Zhang Yan said, lowered his head and wrote two prescriptions.

"Doctor Lu, do we have a master in our hospital who knows how to prepare Chinese medicine?"

"Should be there?" Army said unsure.

"In this way, please take these two prescriptions and find Director Zhao or Director Chu.

Let’s see if our hospital can make it happen.” Zhang Yan handed over the prescription to the Army.

"Okay, Dr. Zhang, please wait. I'll go to Director Zhao now." Lu Jun ran to Zhao Pengcheng with the prescription.

The Army is not very brave enough to find Chu Yunlong directly.

The two prescriptions written by Zhang Yan are specially prepared for the elderly, one is a plaster that relieves muscles and unclogs the meridians, and the other is a package that promotes blood circulation and removes blood stasis.

Needless to mention the effect of the plaster, the medicine bag is used for fumigation. Through fumigation, the medicine force can penetrate into the lesions from the outside to the inside.

At this time, Zhang Yan couldn't wait to hurry up and complete the first brush of "Yellow Emperor's Internal Classic. Lingshu".

In that case, he would have another treatment method.

At this time, another patient came into the outside.

This is a middle-aged man in his thirties. He covered his waist and said to Zhang Yan: "Doctor, please help me see, my waist hurts so much!"

"How does it hurt?"

"It just hurts while standing, and it's better to sit, but when you stand up, it hurts so much. If you can't straighten your waist, you have to wait for a while before you can straighten it."

"Okay! You sit down first, I'll take your pulse." Zhang Yan looked up and down at the middle-aged man and said gently.

"Doctor, I have a back pain, and I still need to take my pulse?"
