"Let me take a look at my tongue!" Ding Changsheng said with a smile after checking his pulse.
"Hmm! There are ecchymoses on my tongue.
Your diabetes is different from Jason's. His is a deficiency of both yin and yang, while yours is a blood stasis that blocks the meridians.
Do you usually feel numbness and pain in your limbs?" Ding Changsheng glanced at his tongue and then asked with a smile.
"Yes, yes, yes! My arm is numb and often has a tingling sensation.
The hospital said it was a complication of diabetes." Henrik nodded in surprise.
"It's not accurate to say it's a complication. The numbness and tingling in your arm is a superficial symptom. You have blood stasis and blockage of the meridians in your limbs, which will lead to numbness and pain.
Traditional Chinese medicine teaches that the general principle is pain-free, and the general principle is pain-free.
The meridians on your arm are blocked, and the flow of Qi and blood to the arm is blocked, so numbness and pain will naturally occur." Ding Changsheng tried his best to explain in a language that Henryk could understand.
Many people don't want to see Chinese medicine because they don't understand the symptoms and causes that Chinese medicine talks about.
I was so confused that I didn’t know what was wrong with me. I drank two pairs of traditional Chinese medicine and was cured. But what kind of disease did I have? I didn’t know until I recovered.
Therefore, many traditional Chinese medicine doctors now begin to use some words from Western medicine, or try to explain the condition in words that patients can understand.
"Then my disease can be cured?"
"Yes, I will give you some acupuncture to dredge the meridians, and then take a few decoctions to activate blood circulation and unblock meridians. After three doses, you will see the effect." Ding Changsheng said while writing down the prescription.
"Sister Lin Lin, please take three copies of Xuefu Zhuyu Decoction with 15 grams of flavored astragalus, 9 grams of Paoshan Jia, and 5 grams of Scorpion." Ding Changsheng told Zhou Linlin who was standing behind him.
Now, Zhou Linlin, Zhang Xin, and Wang Linlin have implemented a shift system. One person works behind Ding Changsheng as an intern and is responsible for picking up medicines, etc., while the other two cook medicines in the backyard and shoot short videos.
Rotate once a day.
"Why add astragalus?" Zhou Linlin asked Ding Changsheng in Chinese.
“Astragalus is added to replenish qi and blood. If the patient’s qi and blood are blocked, it is natural to add astragalus to achieve the effect of replenishing qi and blood.
When you have nothing to do, think more about the chants of various decoctions. You must read them word for word. Don't rely on memorization as a criterion. A partial understanding is not enough. You must truly understand the meaning of the chants.
In this way, when prescribing medicine, you can know when to add and subtract it and under what circumstances." Ding Changsheng explained to Zhou Linlin in a low voice.
"Do you understand all the prescriptions and formulas thoroughly?" Zhou Linlin asked.
"No, every prescription is ever-changing. If I understood them all, I would become a miracle doctor!" Ding Changsheng said with a grin.
"Mr. Ding, what are you talking about?" Henrik asked curiously as he watched Ding Changsheng and Zhou Linlin communicating in Chinese.
This feeling of watching others talking and not understanding a word of it is very uncomfortable.
"This is the intern Chinese medicine practitioner from our Changsheng Hall. We are exchanging the medicines for your disease." Ding Changsheng explained with a smile.
"Henryk, do you need us to provide you with the decoction service?" Ding Changsheng then asked.
"Decocting medicine? Do you use that kind of machine to decoct medicine?"
"No, we all use the traditional method of decoction!"
"Okay! Then I choose the business of decoction! Traditional Chinese medicine is very magical. Only traditional decoction can ensure the effect of traditional Chinese medicine! Medicine decoctioned by machine has no soul and cannot cure diseases!" Henryk really knows some Chinese medicine and traditional Chinese medicine.
Even better than some Chinese people.
Also know the difference between machine decoction and traditional decoction.
"Henryk, you are like this!" Ding Changsheng gave Henry a thumbs up, "Many Chinese people don't know that machine decoction has no soul."
"When I was in the NBA, I heard from our team's health consultant that he was Chinese and a very powerful traditional Chinese medicine doctor who was very good at treating bruises. Unfortunately, he resigned as a health consultant because of some things.
As for his position, he returned to China." Henrik said with some regret.
"Henryk, let's go to the treatment room and I'll give you acupuncture!" Ding Changsheng said with a smile.
He now knew why Henrik's injuries had left him with a disease that eventually led to diabetes.
It must be that the arm was injured. After Western medicine treatment, although the muscles and bones have healed under X-rays and CT, no meridian obstruction can be detected on X-rays and CT.
After the muscles and bones healed, Henryk often felt numbness and pain due to blockage of his meridians, so he took painkillers or antibiotics for anti-inflammatory and pain relief.
If he takes anti-inflammatory and painkillers for a long time, he will definitely not be able to continue playing basketball. Moreover, due to long-term medication, he will eventually suffer from insulin secretion disorder and eventually develop diabetes.
The condition is relatively mild at first, and you only need 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. It can never be cured. You can only take medicine to maintain it.
At first, it was small pills, hormonal drugs such as hypoglycemic drugs. As time went by, when the small pills and hypoglycemic drugs failed to work, insulin was needed.
After taking insulin for a period of time, various complications begin to occur.
Then various complications are treated and various drugs are used, which eventually leads to the worsening of diabetes.
This is the entire process of treating diabetes with Western medicine.
"Henryk, I'm very sorry, our treatment bed is still too small. You can only make do with it, take off your shirt and lie on the bed." Ding Changsheng explained with a smile.
Henrik, who was just over two meters tall, was lying on the treatment bed with his feet still exposed outside the bed.
"It doesn't matter, this is good!" Henrik was used to this situation.
“Although Henryk’s diabetes mellitus is caused by blood stasis blocking the meridians and qi and blood not flowing smoothly, the disease ultimately lies in the lungs. Therefore, acupuncture treatment should still focus on regulating the movement of the organs, supplemented by dredging the meridians.
Needles should be used at the Feishu, Geshu, Weishu, Yishu, and Pishu acupoints to harmonize the yin and yang of the organs, increase the clear qi and decrease the turbid qi.
Only in this way can we achieve the goal of treating the root cause." Ding Changsheng explained to Zhou Linlin in Chinese while using the needle on Henryk.
In the theory of traditional Chinese medicine, spleen qi is clear qi and needs to rise, while stomach qi is turbid qi and needs to fall.
If the spleen Qi does not rise and the stomach Qi does not fall, the yin and yang will be reversed and diseases will breed.
In Western medicine terms, disorders of the digestive system and endocrine system will naturally lead to various diseases.
Ding Changsheng was also fulfilling his previous promise. As long as Zhou Linlin and others wanted to learn, he would teach it without reservation.
Whether it is acupuncture or four-diagnosis and prescription, Ding Changsheng has no reservations. As for how much he can learn, it depends on the talent and dedication of the three people.
