Chapter 119: Look at the excitement and take a non-white
Dong Xinglin seems to have a big tail behind him.
Shake itβ
Akira-
It's about to go to heaven!
"Ahem." She coughed deliberately twice, glancing at the patient's other leg that had fainted in pain: "Swollen leg? β
Master Yuankong gave a look, and a bhikshuni took the futon.
Master Yuan Kong knelt on top of the futon and opened a wrapped cloth bag in the medical box.
As soon as the cloth bag was pushed away, her eyes lit up.
"Silver needle?"
Master Yuankong bowed slightly, and then took out a silver needle, and at the same time, the bhikshuni had already lit the moxa.
"He is worthy of being a master of Yuankong, and he has learned the art of acupuncture!" Dong Xinglin stared and opened his mouth, eager to stick it up and take a closer look.
Moxibustion is used on one side and acupuncture is applied on the other.
Cooperate with each other's treatments.
In other words, acupuncture refers to acupuncture + moxibustion.
Acupuncture is a method that uses a variety of special needles to stimulate the patient's meridian acupoints to achieve the purpose of curing diseases.
Moxibustion is mainly the use of moxa and other substances to scorch the meridian acupuncture points to achieve the effect of curing diseases.
However, in the beginning, the needles used by doctors to treat diseases were not the long silver needles that are common on television.
It is said that in the earliest days, a stone was ground into a pointed or flaked shape to massage the acupuncture points of the patient and soothe the symptoms, so as to achieve the therapeutic effect.
Eh...... Is it "***"?
How was the silver needle invented?
It is said that it is related to Bian Que.
The story is that Bian Que saw a woman sewing clothes with small silver things, and he thought it was very special, and if it was used to perform stitches, it would definitely be effective.
As a result, metal needles replaced things such as stones and bone needles.
Then again, Bian Que has never seen a needle sewing clothes?
Shake oneβs head.
That's about it anyway.
In the Tang Dynasty, moxibustion was more popular, but why was acupuncture lower?
Don't say that it is the first time she has seen someone to perform acupuncture, judging from Dong Xinglin's surprised expression, it shows that acupuncture is still relatively rare at this time.
There are naturally very few people who know how to acupuncture.
Later, Dong Xinglin specially analyzed it for her.
Take, for example, the country's highest-level territory.
Chang'an, two places related to "medical care".
"One is the Tai Yi Department under the Taichang Temple, and the other is the Provincial Medicine Bureau in the palace."
"Don't talk about the Shang Pharmacy, it's a place dedicated to serving the Son of Heaven, and the entire Imperial Doctor Department, maybe three hundred people."
"How many people are there inside and outside Chang'an City?"
"What is the top of 300 people?"
I'm sorry - the Imperial Doctor's Department is not a place for medical treatment.
The Department of Medicine is an administrative + educational institution.
Literally, it means what kind of medical policy is promulgated, and the training of medical talents, etc.
There are about 300 administrative staff, teaching teachers and students in the Taiyi Department, while there are hundreds of thousands of people in Chang'an when there is a small number and millions of people in a large number.
Excuse me, how many people does a doctor have to treat?
Which of the following people can go to the Department of Medical Counsel?
A. Aristocrats
B. Officers
C. Eunuch of the court
D. Retired Officer
There is no E option, ordinary people please go out and turn left and right, go to the pharmacy in the east and west markets, and if it doesn't work, go to the "black clinic", or try your luck to find a barefoot doctor.
The people who see a doctor in the Imperial Medical Department are mainly those who eat public food, retirees, yes, they have to be more than five grades, in addition, the palace maids and eunuchs can also go to a place called "Patient Fang" under the Imperial Medical Department to practice their hands.
This is the case in Chang'an, let alone other places?
In fact, the Tang Dynasty has worked hard to train medical students, and many prefectures have set up special medical points to invite medical doctors and teaching assistants to train students, but the number of doctors is still very small.
One of the difficulties is that medical knowledge cannot be popularized.
Are books expensive?
Is it affordable for everyone?
Another question, where are the herbs? Can ordinary people afford it?
I once heard a woman in Hongjia Village say that her relatives in a certain place finally went bankrupt in order to treat a fever and cold.
People and money are empty.
So, there is such a phenomenon.
The official ordered people to engrave prescriptions on the walls, roadsides, stone faces, and places where words could be left, so that the people could "cure a disease".
I couldn't help but think of one of the industries she wanted to develop.
Paper.
Movable type printing.
Wire-bound books.
When he came back to his senses, he was "sighing" when he happened to see Master Yuankong receive the needle.
A few people left the house.
Dong Xinglin looked like he wanted to speak and stopped.
Master Yuan Kong asked, "If there is anything inappropriate in the previous application of the needle, please ask Doctor Dong for advice." β
"Don't dare, don't dare, where is there any advice, Master Yuankong's acupuncture is exquisite, which makes us embarrassed, and contemptible ......" Dong Xinglin blushed, and said quickly: "Contemptible people want to ask Master Yuankong to teach him!" β
"Stitching?"
"I ...... I really can't, please allow me to stay in the hospital and see if I can help. β
"You and I know each other is fate, and Dr. Dong is willing to stay, which is the luck of Tiankui Temple."
"You agreed? Haha, great! Dong Xinglin clapped his hands and continued: "I just have a question. β
Master Yuankong was going to see the other patients, and motioned for him to ask as he walked.
And she who followed behind the two seemed to be transparent.
Transparency is transparency.
She just wanted to be with her for a while β to enjoy the view and see if there were any business opportunities.
I didn't expect the opportunity to come very quickly.
Enter another room.
VIP room.
There is a patient inside, the situation is similar to just now, but not on the legs, but on the arms, and the skin is not as rotten as the former, but the situation should get worse and worse.
The patient's face is flushed.
And it seems to be in a state of sleep.
The bhikshuni lifted the thin blanket covering the man's body, and the rotten arms were immediately revealed, not explicit, but larger.
The first part of the injury was a slap-long wound.
"What's going on?"
"Incense ash."
Dong Xinglin said at this time: "The plant ash can stop bleeding at the beginning, and it is not appropriate to use this thing in the later stage!" β
The bhikshuni who replied to the "incense ash" had a bad face and asked rhetorically, "What medicine do you think should be used?" β
"Of course it's the best gold sore medicine!"
She couldn't hold back a "poof".
The bhikshuni was silent, and Dong Xinglin exhaled angrily, "What do you think?" β
She hurriedly waved her hand.
Master Yuankong knelt down and sat down to carefully examine the wound, and Dong Xinglin asked on the side: "Master, why is the muscle so deteriorating?" β
Master Yuankong was the main speaker, and Dong Xinglin was in charge of asking questions, and he listened dizzily for a long time, in what poisonous evil was deep and cold and condensation.
The brain was racing for a while.
Finally found the entry point.
"I'm a little ...... Humble opinion? β
The three men in the room looked at her.
He cleared his throat and pointed to the patient's festering arm: "Is this situation similar to a carbuncle?" β
Carbuncles were one of the strongest killers in ancient times.
Translated, it seems to be purulent inflammation of the skin.
Fortunately, she had heard of the word - carbuncle.
But what exactly should I say?
Raising her eyebrows, she said: "At first, he was injured by a knife wound, because the wound was too large, the healing ability was low, and his own resistance decreased rapidly, and the skin and muscle were inflamed, bacterial infection, and if he did not heal for a long time, it would naturally be ulcerated. β
