Chapter 45 The 54-year-old hunchback
"Shennong's Materia Medica" recorded in the drug is only three or four hundred, to the Ming Dynasty Li Shizhen's "Compendium of Materia Medica" recorded more than 1,900 kinds of drugs, the difference between the two books is 1,500 years, and there are about 1,500 kinds of drugs, almost more than 1 year and 1 drug, so it seems that the history of Chinese medicine is the experimental history of a master of Chinese medicine to study medicine.
Some people in modern times think, what are you kidding, how slow is this, it took 1 year to develop 1 drug, but this is not the case, this is a cumulative effect, the earliest drugs used have been available for more than 1500 years, how many people have to be used to do these experiments to verify the effectiveness of these drugs, modern medicine is only more than 200 years old.
Modern medicine seems to be much more scientific, using animals for experiments, not harming people, and using animal experiments cannot completely target human diseases.
You can look at an example, Croton, as you know, Croton is a laxative, and people eat it to get meat and eight vegetables. What happens if it is used on mice? The rat is very happy to eat and will not diarrhea.
Because the croton is called rat bean in the folk, it is the favorite food of rats, so of course it will not have diarrhea.
Therefore, looking at the mouse experiment may not be effective, at least when used in the drug croton, it is completely useless.
Looking at it this way, the research of traditional Chinese medicine is also quite in-depth, and it has endured a long period of testing, not only do you know how people use it? I also know what symptoms other animals will have when using it, but there are not so many papers to learn from.
Before Li Shizhen tastes the herbs, he will also judge the smell, meridian and efficacy of the herbs, because there was also a complete and meticulous set of experimental methods in ancient times, but some of them have been lost until now.
In modern times, some people ridicule the unscientific nature of traditional Chinese medicine, which is also a pseudo-scientific proposition, and now the judgment of science and unscience should not be the focus of debate.
SARS that occurred a few years ago had the intervention of traditional Chinese medicine in Guangdong, and the mortality rate was 3.8%, while in Hong Kong, where a wall was separated, without the intervention of traditional Chinese medicine, the mortality rate was 17%, which is the best example of Chinese medicine first aid.
……
Zhou Quanlin often thinks about this kind of problem, and has a firm determination to study Chinese medicine first aid.
Because of Zhou Quanlin's excellent performance in the treatment of acute and critical diseases, the county hospital gave him a two-bedroom house in order to reward him, which was just behind the county hospital, about 500 meters away from the county hospital, and the hospital also gave him half a month off.
Zhou Quanlin went home to visit his parents, and when he saw his parents, Zhou Quanlin's tears rang out, and he was busy all day long, and he had no time to take care of his father and mother.
At this time, I met my father's comrades-in-arms to visit, one was the old squad leader Qian Bin, a thin old man, very energetic; The other is machine gunner Hua Chengze, hunched over and very old.
They hadn't seen each other for more than 20 years, and the comrades-in-arms had a deep friendship, sitting together chatting and drinking.
Looking at the memories they were talking about, Zhou Quanlin was very moved.
During the banquet, Hua Chengze sneezed from time to time, and the sound was very loud.
"Lao Hua, what's wrong with you?" Zhou Quanlin's father, Zhou Juncheng, asked his old comrades-in-arms with concern.
"It's okay, it's okay, it's an old problem, it's been more than 30 years, and I've committed allergic rhinitis."
"Oh, it's been incurable!"
"If it is cured, it will not be cured. If you do it in the summer, it's good in the fall, don't worry about it. ”
"That's going to have to be cured!"
"Lao Zhou, you have a way to cure it!"
"I don't have a way, but I have someone."
"Really, my 30-year-old illness can be cured?"
"I don't dare to play the ticket, ready-made doctor, my son Zhou Quanlin, old man, do you dare to use it!"
"Xiao Linzi, can you cure the disease?"
"What's wrong, I still don't believe it."
"It's really healing, show me quickly."
"Uncle Hua, I can't see it well, don't blame me!"
"How old is Uncle Hua, if you can't cure it, you can't cure it, Uncle Hua will leave it all to you, don't worry about it boldly." It seems that Hua Chengze doesn't know Zhou Quanlin, just to save face for his old comrades-in-arms, and he also wants to try Zhou Quanlin's medical skills.
"Come, Uncle Hua, I'll give you the number first."
"Alas, you're a Chinese medicine doctor?"
"That's right, Uncle Hua, I have a pulse, I have a number in my heart, you talk about the condition, okay?"
"Okay!" Hua Chengze is 54 years old this year, and he has never had a good impression of traditional Chinese medicine, and most of them are not curable.
Zhou Quanlin carefully diagnosed the pulse, but the pulse was thin and weak. Looking at Hua Chengze's tongue again, the tongue is light and owes Hua.
"Uncle Hua, do you often pee poorly when you urinate?"
"yes, you know that."
"You are hunchbacked, it has something to do with this, are you not good with Aunt Hua?" Zhou Quanlin didn't say it clearly in front of several old people.
Zhou Juncheng said angrily: "Boy, can this also be asked?" ”
Hua Chengze was very surprised, "Xiaolinzi, give me a good look, you are right, you kid has two hits." ”
Zhou Juncheng said to the old man proudly: "There are two hits! Now Xiaolinzi is a county traditional Chinese medicine department, and he is somewhat famous. ”
"Oh, then Uncle Hua's illness will be handed over to you, and it must be cured! The happiness of the second half of my life depends on you. "The old man loves to joke.
"Uncle Hua, can you tell me about the situation in the past 30 years?"
"Xiao Linzi, I'm sick and annoying, and I've taken a lot of Chinese medicine, it's useless. This year, my body is not as good as before, my waist is like a fold, my breath is short, I don't have a word to your Aunt Hua at home, I don't like to talk. I am afraid of the wind and cold, and I have caught a cold several times, and this cold will clear my nose, like a worm in my nose, and I will keep sneezing. ”
"Uncle Hua, you were originally sick in your lungs, and your long-term illness will affect your kidneys."
"Yes, eldest nephew. I've been here for a few years, and I don't think about it at all, I don't have any ideas. Sometimes your Aunt Hua is unhappy and counts me down. ”
"Lao Hua, let Xiao Linzi prescribe medicine." I could hear that Zhou Juncheng was afraid that this old guy had missed something, so he asked him to stop.
"Uncle Hua, there is a saying that 'all diseases cannot be cured, and it is sought from the kidneys.'" I'll give you a prescription now. ”
"Okay!" Hua Chengze looked at Zhou Quanlin, full of hope.
Zhou Quanlin began to write down the recipe while thinking.
30 grams of aconite, 10 grams of ephedra, fine spice, red ginseng (stewed), 120 grams of kidney four flavors, 10 slices of fresh ginger, 10 jujubes, 3 white onions, 0.3 grams of musk (washed). Add 1500ml of cold water to the whole recipe, pour out the remaining 500ml after simmering, and take it in 2 times a day. A total of 3 doses......
On the other hand, Biyunsan, taken from "Jinjian-Biyunsan", the whole party is: goose does not eat grass, fine xin, Chuanxiong, Xinyi, Qingdai 5 grams each, grinding powder, each time sucking a little powder into the nose, 2 times a day.
A soup and a scatter, an internal and external use, complement each other, this kind of allergic diseases, are the patient's congenital insufficiency, low self-immunity, from the kidney treatment can be described as the root cause, if simply from the benefit of qi and solid surface, evacuation of wind and cold, that is the boot scratching itch, so before Hua Chengze, more than 30 years of traditional Chinese medicine was eaten in vain.
