"Your husband's current condition is not bad. His tongue is red, the coating is slightly yellow, and his body is relatively hot."
"The pulse is heavy and stringy and slightly slippery, indicating that the disease is progressing."
"Emotional depression causes the liver to lose its coordination function."
"This is not something that can be solved by nourishing and strengthening yang. Some of these diseases have little to do with the kidneys themselves."
"Your husband's problem is an emotional one. He should soothe the liver and relieve depression."
Jiang Fei stopped writing and handed a complete copy of the prescription to his young wife.
The young wife hurriedly took it and looked at the medicine prescribed above.
She couldn't understand it anyway, so she knew that there were Bupleurum, peony, etc., as well as Sichuan wood, Cyperus rotunda, Albizia julibrissin, gentian, green onion tube, licorice, etc.
She knew what these medicines were treating. They were treating that thing.
"It will be open for ten days first. After ten days, come and see me for the second consultation. If I don't come for the second consultation, you can go to the office of the Chinese Medicine Emergency Team on the west side of the first floor to find me."
Jiang Fei gave a few instructions but said nothing more.
The young couple also knew that it was time to leave after taking the medicine. This was not the place to chat with the doctor.
"Thank you, Director Jiang. Let's go back and take medicine for treatment first."
The young wife is very outgoing, but the husband is a little reserved.
After thanking her, she took her husband outside.
After the couple opened the door and walked out, a thin middle-aged man immediately got in.
Jiang Fei's clinic was almost seamless, leaving no time for Jiang Fei to rest for a while.
But Jiang Fei only likes this situation.
Traditional Chinese medicine practitioners should sit in clinical practice, be able to sit firmly, and have a steady stream of patients believe in traditional Chinese medicine. Only then can we talk about the renaissance of traditional Chinese medicine.
Otherwise, it can only be nonsense.
"Hello, please sit down."
Jiang Fei saw this middle-aged, thin man coming in and pointed toward the medical chair.
He didn't even have time to summarize the medical case of the previous young husband, and now he immediately devoted himself to the next patient.
"Give me your hand, I'll check your pulse, then open your mouth and check the tongue coating."
The diagnosis and treatment of TCM is actually relatively simple. It is nothing more than the four diagnostic methods combined with ginseng, and pulse diagnosis and tongue diagnosis are suitable for 90% of TCM doctors.
If you want to increase the difficulty, you need to increase the number of inquiries and auscultations, especially the auscultation is the most difficult to defend.
No more than 10% of Chinese medicine practitioners have such ability.
If you don’t believe me, go to a private clinic and take a look. Most of the Chinese medicine doctors who do consultations only do pulse diagnosis and occasionally do tongue diagnosis.
"Director Jiang, I am the director of Jiang County Building."
The middle-aged, thin man was the first to reveal his identity after sitting on the chair.
Jiang Fei didn't have any reaction when he heard this. He hummed and said, "I'll check the pulse first."
As he spoke, he placed his fingers on the pulse area.
When Xu Weiping saw that Jiang Fei didn't care about his identity at all, he wasn't angry. He just felt that Jiang Fei deserved to be famous in Jiang County and was really different.
"I had a chest X-ray done at a regional hospital before, and it was found to be chronic bronchitis with left upper lobe emphysema."
"I took Western medicine and Chinese medicine in the past two years, but I often made mistakes."
"I would like to ask Director Jiang to take a look and adjust it for me."
Xu Weiping opened his mouth to introduce his situation. He knew that some traditional Chinese medicine doctors did not like patients to take the initiative to speak when diagnosing pulses.
But what he introduced is necessary. Otherwise, if the doctor is not clear about it, he will easily prescribe the wrong medicine.
Jiang Fei is young, so he is worried that Jiang Fei will have this kind of problem.
To put it bluntly, in his heart, he still had reservations about trusting Jiang Fei.
It’s just that the hospital in his area has looked at it, so many famous experts have looked at it, and I’ve tried both Chinese and Western medicine, as well as Chinese patent medicines, but it still doesn’t make any sense.
He didn't want to endure such torture. His body was getting thinner and thinner, and he would cough when he moved even slightly. He couldn't stand it.
If Jiang Fei could cure him, or even just get better, he would be grateful to Jiang Fei.
Jiang Fei ignored him and just continued to feel his pulse.
"Look at the coating on your tongue."
Jiang Fei heard what Xu Weiping said, but he didn't care. Whatever Western medicine diagnoses and treats, that's all Western medicine's business.
I will look at problems and diseases from the perspective of traditional Chinese medicine.
Traditional Chinese medicine looks at the whole person. Since a person is a whole, any problem in any place is the cause of the problem as a whole.
Western medicine looks at individual cases and treats the specific disease. They do not consider whether there is blood stasis, blood blockage, or qi stagnation.
Only treat the obvious symptoms, not the underlying causes.
Of course, we cannot say that the methods of Western medicine are wrong, we can only say that we have different ideas.
"Are you short of breath and coughing?"
Jiang Fei felt for his pulse and checked the tongue coating, then continued to ask Xu Weiping.
Xu Weiping nodded and replied: "I have coughing, shortness of breath, and difficulty breathing. Especially in winter, coughing will occur when encountering air conditioning."
"I've had this disease for many years, and it just keeps getting worse."
"I can even remember the prescriptions prescribed by experts from local hospitals, such as Xiao Qinglong Decoction and Dingchuan Decoction. Some of them are indeed effective, but they are only temporary and cannot remove the root cause at all."
"My cough has become more severe recently when the weather has been getting colder and hotter."
"The Chinese New Year is coming soon, and the workload is very heavy, but I feel like things are not going well these days, so I took advantage of my day off to take a look."
"Yes, I know." Jiang Fei nodded towards him after hearing this.
Jiang Fei would not stop others from saying these things that they should know, and then pretend to be a fool himself.
To practice medicine, you must be bold and careful, and you must not take personal risks, let alone take risks yourself.
"How is the sputum cough? What does the sputum smell like?"
Jiang Fei's next question was a little disgusting, but it was actually necessary.
Many things can be distinguished from sputum, and a diagnosis can even be made.
"The sputum that is coughed up is white with some bubbles, and is very sticky. In addition, the sputum has a salty taste." Xu Weiping did not hide anything and answered as soon as he asked.
Jiang Fei continued to ask him: "How was your sleep at night? Will your legs feel cold?"
"I couldn't sleep well. I tossed and turned and couldn't fall asleep. It was difficult to fall asleep. My feet were really cold."
"Well, you have liver and kidney deficiency, which causes internal accumulation of phlegm and dampness, coupled with external cold, which causes cough and asthma."
"There are both internal and external factors, so it's so serious."
"If your conditions permit, go to a hospital. Of course, you don't need to be hospitalized if you are busy with work."
Jiang Fei had analyzed and explained to him according to the written evidence. As for whether the other party could understand it, Jiang Fei had tried to be as civilian as possible.
"I'd better not be hospitalized anymore. I don't have time." Xu Weiping smiled bitterly and shook his head and waved his hands.
Where does he find the time to stop and rest now? If he rests for half a month, his position will be gone when he returns...
"Okay, if you don't want to be hospitalized, I'll prescribe you medicine for ten days first, and come back to me for a follow-up consultation after ten days."
Jiang Fei has no objection. As long as the patient is not life-threatening, he can go back on his own.
"The treatment method is to dry dampness and resolve phlegm, nourish the kidneys and absorb qi, relieve cough and asthma."
Jiang Fei didn't say anything specifically to Xu Weiping, he lowered his head and continued writing.
The new medicine prescribed by Jiang Fei is very simple, with only eight ingredients, but none of these eight ingredients is indispensable.
They are 1 qian for ephedra, 3 qian for almond, 1 qian for licorice, 3 qian for pinellia, and 4 qian for tangerine peel and poria.
