"The muscles in my calves are spasming and throbbing, and the pain wakes me up even when I fall asleep."
"What about the duration?"
"Well, in terms of duration, sometimes it lasts for a few seconds, sometimes it lasts for more than ten minutes. It's really painful. And most of the time, after the cramp, the calf will still be sore for a long time before it subsides."
"Do you also smoke during the day?"
"It happened this morning during the day, just before you guys came here. It hurts so much that I can't even get out of bed and walk."
…
In the room, Ma Dehuai was half leaning on the bed with a grimace on his face. Ye Qingquan was sitting on a willow chair beside the bed, taking his pulse and asking about some usual symptoms. Ma Dehuai answered all of them one by one. And Ye Qingquan was taking his pulse.
and Lanlan, both stood behind Ye Qingquan.
Lan Lan, a little girl, glanced at Ye Qing from the corner of her eye from time to time, feeling both happy and ashamed. She said to her heart, Brother Ye Qing is so handsome. He is my blind date. I wonder if Aunt Sun mentioned it to him? He
Why don't you look at mine? Don't you think... I'm not pretty? Yeah, I see. Brother Ye Qing is a gentleman. He doesn't look sideways. Hehe, so cute.
Wang Lanlan is also a little beauty. When she walks on the street, many people inevitably turn to look at her. At school, there are also various boys who find various excuses to strike up a conversation with her, send flowers, etc. She is studying
Vocational schools include embroidery classes, computer classes, mechanical and electrical maintenance classes, etc. They are classified as training centers.
"Show me the medicines prescribed by the doctor." After checking his pulse, Ye Qingquan thought for a moment, then smiled slightly and said to Ma Dehuai as if he had a plan in mind.
Ma Dehuai is seventy-three years old this year, with gray hair. Like all rural elders, he has dark skin and many wrinkles on his face. His big old hands are skinny and full of calluses. When Ye Qingquan asked, he took out a wooden box from the bedside.
He picked up many small medicine bottles and handed them to Ye Qingquan, saying: "Here, these are the pills, calcium gluconate tablets, calcium gluconate, calcium lactate, etc. The doctor said they are all calcium supplements."
At this time, Ma Dehuai's grandson Ma Zhigao and his grandson's daughter-in-law Ji Hongxia, as well as Shu Liu'er, fat Uncle Hai and other villagers also came over. When he heard this, Ma Zhigao said: "The doctor told my grandpa, in addition to taking medicine,
, we should also eat more fresh foods that are high in calcium and are beneficial to nutritional balance, so we usually buy some milk, dried tofu, dried shrimps, sesame paste, kelp and other foods that can supplement the body's calcium for grandpa to eat
.”
As he said that, he took Ji Hongxia's hand and walked into the bedroom. Shu Liu'er, Uncle Hai and others were standing at the door of the room, mainly because the room was too small to accommodate so many people. Besides, there is a difference between closeness and distance.
It is not convenient for Liu'er and others to enter.
Everyone watched Ye Qingquan's diagnosis quietly, not daring to disturb him. Especially Shu Liu'er, who had bright eyes and seemed to be particularly interested in Chinese medicine.
When Ye Qing heard Ma Zhigao's words, he couldn't help but nodded secretly. He didn't have a good impression of this person at first, but he thought to himself, how dare you look down on me and my dad? Say that we are barefoot doctors, far inferior to those doctors in big hospitals?
It's really funny. If you know that I am the number one in Fuliu, and I don't even pay attention to your so-called doctors at the People's Hospital, then I don't know what expression this kid should make?
However, now that he heard Ma Zhigao's words, Ye Qing felt that although this person looked hateful, he was still a filial grandson.
"Haha, the old man's disease can be said to be complicated or complicated, Qingya, would you like to give it a try?" Ye Qingquan chuckled and looked at his son. There was a sophisticated meaning in his words.
Suddenly, everyone's eyes were focused on Ye Qing.
Mr. Ma Dehuai's eyes lit up. He also wanted to see how capable this young boy that all the villagers praised him was. He immediately cooperated and stretched out his hand to let Ye Qing take his pulse.
Shu Liu'er, Fat Uncle and others are in high spirits. They really want to take a look at the "difficult and complicated diseases" that even the Western medicine experts at the Municipal People's Hospital have not seen. What does our Chinese medicine, to be precise, Xiaoye Chinese medicine, have?
What is the solution?
At the same time, Wang Lanlan also glanced at Ye Qing with her shrewd eyes, full of excitement and confidence. She learned embroidery in Fuliu City and had heard of Ye Qing's name. She knew Ye Qing far better than anyone present.
Qing, this is one of the reasons why she has been attracted to Ye Qingfang at a young age.
Ma Zhigao frowned indignantly and cursed: "Why is this Ye Qingquan like this? He actually used my grandfather as a test subject to let his son practice medical skills? This is simply too much."
I wanted to teach him a lesson, but when I saw that my grandfather was smiling and didn't care, he seemed to be full of praise for the boy in front of him, as if he thought it was very interesting for Ye Qing to treat him, so he held back.
Besides, his wife Ji Hongxia was winking at him.
Ma Zhigao pursed his lips and thought to himself: "If you can't be cured in a while, I won't agree to it. I will say something to you anyway."
"Okay." Ye Qing smiled slightly and took a step forward. Ye Qingquan gave up his position. Then, Ye Qing's fingers were clasped on Ma Dehuai's waist. In fact, he could already tell that this old man Ma didn't even need to check his pulse.
It is not a calcium deficiency, but caused by poor blood return in the lower limbs.
Modern Western medicine research believes that nighttime calf cramps are generally caused by a decrease in the body's serum calcium ion concentration, which increases the excitement of nerves and muscles. Cold stimulation, bending of the lower limbs while sleeping for a long time, sudden leg extension, etc., often induce calf cramps.
external factors.
Many inexperienced doctors will associate leg cramps with calcium deficiency, leading to misdiagnosis. Calcium deficiency is indeed one of the most important causes of leg cramps, but in addition, the elderly have arteriosclerosis and poor blood flow in the legs.
, so that when metabolites accumulate to a certain concentration, they will stimulate muscle contraction and cause painful convulsions.
On the basis of calcium deficiency and atherosclerosis, there are also some predisposing factors, such as insufficient measures to keep warm at night, cold stimulation of the legs; excessive fatigue, excessive contraction of leg muscles, increased local metabolites, and poor sleeping posture.
, long-term pressure on the calf and other factors can cause leg cramps.
"You are Ye Qing, the second son of the Ye family, right? How about it? How can you cure this old man's disease?" Mr. Ma Dehuai looked at Ye Qing and Ye Qingquan next to him with a smile and asked with a smile.
Ye Qing smiled slightly and said: "I will prescribe a small recipe with simple ingredients. If you eat it for seven or eight days in a row, I guarantee you will never have cramps again."
"Oh?" Mr. Ma Dehuai was suddenly full of expectations, and everyone else looked at Ye Qing with eager eyes, wanting to see what kind of folk remedy was so effective?
Ye Qing had long been used to being the center of attention, and there was no pressure at all. He immediately took out a pen and paper from his father's medicine box, and started writing very calmly, "swish, swish, swish".
It is worth mentioning that when Ye Qing was writing the prescription, the little girl Wang Lanlan put her head down to watch, her little head almost touched Ye Qing's handsome face, her silky hair fell down, and she screamed.
The hot air made Ye Qing's ears itch.
Wang Lanlan has a pair of bright crescent-like black eyes, with flowing light, moist and smart. When she looks at Ye Qing's handwriting, she praises it in her heart. The handwriting is so beautiful, fresh, delicate, and elegant. Does the handwriting look like the person she is?
Glancing at Ye Qing's handsome face, he couldn't help but purse his lips. He felt a faint urge to go up and take a bite of his handsome brother.
…
Even though Ye Qing pretended to be serious and had close contact with this little girl in public, he couldn't help but feel a little shaken. However, he already had enough emotional debts. At this time, he didn't want to provoke this little girl, so he just ignored her.
See, immerse yourself in writing
Ye Qingquan looked on and shook his head repeatedly, saying to himself, Lanlan is really a good girl. If she can be the daughter-in-law of my Ye family, I think it will be successful. It's a pity that Qingya has already found someone he likes.
After a while, Ye Qing finished writing the recipe, but it was: 2 taels of brown sugar, 2 taels of black fungus (100 grams). Wash the black fungus, cut it into small pieces, put it in a porcelain bowl, scatter the brown sugar in, and cover it.
First, steam over high heat and water. After the water boils, continue steaming over low heat. Until all the brown sugar melts and the black fungus is soft, take it out and eat.
"Ah, so easy?" Wang Lanlan was the first to shout in surprise.
Ye Qing smiled and said: "No matter whether it is simple or complex, the key is to use it." After saying that, he handed the prescription to old man Ma Dehuai.
Ma Dehuai was illiterate. He immediately smiled and handed it to his grandson Ma Zhigao. Ma Zhigao read it out in front of everyone. After reading it, his face was full of disdain and disbelief, and he said in a slightly sarcastic tone: "I
Ye Qing said, just a little black fungus and a little brown sugar, that'll be all right? Isn't this medicine?"
Shu Liu'er and others also looked puzzled. In their impression, weren't the prescriptions prescribed by Chinese medicine doctors always filled with strange and unheard-of Chinese medicine names?
Ye Qing said: "Everything can be used as medicine. Who said black fungus and brown sugar are not medicine? "Compendium of Materia Medica" records that black fungus has a sweet and flat nature and is mainly used to replenish qi and relieve hunger. Modern medical workers have evaluated the medicinal value of black fungus.
There are new discoveries
, it is believed that black fungus also has the effects of clearing the lungs, moistening body fluids, transporting blood, and removing congestion and regenerating new energy. In addition, black fungus also contains anti-cancer substances and is an anti-cancer medicinal food. Black fungus can also promote blood circulation in the human body.
, treatment of coronary heart disease, etc.
As for brown sugar being used as medicine, its background is even greater. It has long been mentioned in the ancient Chinese medical classic "Nei Jing" that it is said that 'when the liver is suffering from pain and urgency, eat sweet food to relieve it'."
Wang Lanlan thought for a moment, but didn't understand. She immediately asked: "Brother Ye Qing, what does this sentence mean? And what does it have to do with brown sugar?"
Everyone, except Ye Qingquan, also looked over in surprise, obviously they didn't understand.
In fact, not only do they not understand, even many Chinese medicine doctors are confused about the meaning of this nine-character mantra. Although it is very brief, modern Chinese medicine only cares about the pathology in Western medicine. It has some Westernization tendencies and has long forgotten the "
"Nei Jing" is the highest guideline for diagnosis and pathology of traditional Chinese medicine.
Sun Zhigao looked at Ye Qing and couldn't help but pursed his lips and cursed: "I can't stand these traditional Chinese medicine doctors the most. They talk about the "Nei Jing" and "Compendium of Materia Medica" all the time. They make it look like they are very educated. You are a little Barefoot doctor, I’m afraid he hasn’t started practicing yet, what book bag did he drop? Oh, Chinese medicine is really in decline, can you only cling to this little legacy of the ancients?"
With Ye Qing's sharp eyesight, he immediately caught the flash of disdain from Ma Zhigao and his wife Ji Hongxia, but he didn't care about it. Everyone had different opinions and couldn't force it. When he was in Kowloon Walled City, those people The villagers only see Chinese medicine and resist Western medicine. This is completely opposite to Ma Zhigao.
"If the liver is in a hurry, eat sweet food to relieve it," Ye Qing explained with a smile and talked eloquently. "The 'liver is in a hurry' here refers to cramps, because the liver controls tendons, and 'eating sweet' means drinking sugar water." Of course, this sugar water refers to sucrose water, which is brown sugar water. Brown sugar water has many functions. It can 'warm and nourish, warm and clear, and warm and disperse', which is what we commonly call warming. The elderly should eat it in moderation. It can also dissipate blood stasis, activate blood circulation, promote intestinal laxation, soothe the liver and improve eyesight.
Even when diabetic patients drink brown sugar water, it is very helpful to their condition. Even when there is a wound on the foot that cannot be closed, applying brown sugar can both reduce inflammation and relieve pain, and help the wound converge. Even though Western medicine is as advanced as it is today, it does not know that brown sugar has such a function. Efficacy
From the perspective of traditional Chinese medicine theory, it is because we usually eat processed white sugar, and although this sugar tastes sweet, its properties are acidic. Acid can damage tendons, thus causing leg cramps in the middle of the night."
Ye Qing cited scriptures with confidence and calmness, as if every word was a pearl, which immediately attracted the attention of everyone present. At this moment, he was the lecturer, and these people, including Ma Zhigao, were all students.
After talking about Chinese medicine, Ye Qing explained the knowledge of Western medicine again. He has dabbled in both Chinese and Western medicine, and has accumulated a lot of knowledge. When he said it at this time, it was like a Buddha preaching, with lotus tongues glowing, golden lotuses flowing from the ground, and flowers falling from the sky. The charm frightened Shu Liu'er and others into a daze.
"I have said before that Ye Qing is not a simple boy. Every time I hear him talk about Chinese medicine, I benefit a lot. It is better than studying for ten years." Shu Liu'er stroked his whiskers, shook his head, and was impressed by Ye Qing's words. Unabashed appreciation
"Oh, it's better to be famous than to meet. Ye Qing is a good young man. He has extensive references and profound knowledge. I'm afraid he is three points more powerful than Ye Qingquan. I never thought that the common black fungus and brown sugar can have so many effects. Well, I also Let's go back and eat." Uncle Hai nodded frequently, thinking that he would go to Yejia Clinic more often to ask this family for advice. It would be good for health.
The other villagers also had bright eyes, and their admiration for Ye Qing was beyond words.
Ma Zhigao was quite unconvinced, and said to himself: "Can my grandfather's calf cramps be cured with just a black fungus and brown sugar? I don't believe it. I'll see the effect when the time comes. If it's not cured, I'll go to your house to find you. Anyway, you guys A monk can run away but cannot run away from the temple."
Ji Hongxia was a little impressed by Ye Qing, and her heart started to sway, and she thought: "What this little handsome guy said makes perfect sense. It seems that there is some truth in it." Of course, there is no such thing as opposites attracting each other, making it easier for them to have a good impression. , I don’t know
Lan Lan admired her so much, her big bright eyes narrowed into crescent moons, shining brightly: "What a handsome brother. Not only is he good at handwriting, but he is also good at medical skills. He is also so handsome." So he secretly took out his mobile phone , pretending to read the text message, secretly took a picture of Ye Qing's side. Well, it's good to take it out for eye relief when you have nothing to do.
Ye Qingquan was overjoyed. Although he also had several prescriptions for the symptoms, when he saw Ye Qing's folk remedies, the more he looked at them, the more he felt that they were extremely suitable and saved trouble and money. He was immediately overjoyed: "What a good young man!
Sure enough, he has the talent to practice medicine. He is better than his master. Our Ye family has a heir."
In his eyes, although Ye Dadong was also quite proficient in medical skills, he was now far behind Ye Qing. Ye Qing became the heir to the Ye family's mantle.
Ma Dehuai laughed and said: "This recipe is good. I will ask my grandson to help me buy black fungus and brown sugar soon."
Ye Qing pulled the quilt for the old man Ma Dehuai and said with a smile: "As you get older, you can eat it once a day. A pair of black fungus and brown sugar can be eaten in two to three times. In addition, be careful to buy brown sugar instead of coarse sugar."
Refined sugar. You can eat it on an empty stomach in the morning or an hour before going to bed. If you eat it for about seven or eight days in a row, you will basically have no more cramps."
"Zhigao, have you written everything down?" Ma Dehuai said to his grandson Ma Zhigao.
"Remember it, grandpa, don't worry, I'll ride to the town to buy it later." Although Ma Zhigao was dissatisfied with Ye Qing and didn't like traditional Chinese medicine, but grandpa said it, he had no choice but to agree with a smile, thinking, anyway
Eating black fungus and brown sugar won’t harm your health, so I’ll give it a try. I’ll tell you whether it’s good or not.
Then, Ye Qing and his father were about to say goodbye and leave, while Shu Liuer, Fat Uncle and others surrounded them, talking here and there, asking questions, reluctant to let them go.
"Xiaoye, I've been suffering from stiff neck recently. Is there any good way? Just like Uncle Ma, just give me a simple and affordable dietary prescription."
"Qingya, I've been having nightmares and dizziness recently. Can you feel my pulse to see if there's anything wrong with me?"
"Mr. Ye, Traditional Chinese Medicine Doctor, I haven't had a bowel movement in many days. Do you have any tips for defecation?"
…
"Ouch, it hurts."
"Grandpa, what's wrong with you?"
"Grandpa, are your legs cramping again?"
Ye Qing and Ye Qingquan had just walked out of the door of Ma's house and came to the house. They were answering questions from Shu Liu'er and other villagers when they heard the exclamations of Ma Dehuai, Ma Zhigao, Ji Hongxia and their grandchildren coming from inside the house.
"Doctor Ye, Doctor Ye, come and see, my grandpa is sick again?" Ma Zhigao didn't care about traditional Chinese medicine or western medicine. He rushed out and shouted to Ye Qingquan and Ye Qing, with a lot of pleading in his words.
meaning
"Let's go take a look." Ye Qingquan pushed aside the crowd and strode away first. Although he was old, he was a doctor himself and was proficient in health preservation. Although he worked hard all year round and had many wrinkles and gray hair, his body was still strong.
