Chapter 17 Benefiting the Lungs

Bai Yi returned home and thought about the condition that Dr. Chen said, pulmonary edema, whether it is ancient or modern pulmonary edema, is very dangerous. Pulmonary edema can easily cause dyspnea, decrease blood oxygen concentration, lead to acidosis and multi-organ damage, and in severe cases, it is life-threatening. Complications include CO2 retention, mixed acidosis, circulatory collapse, etc. The curative prognosis is poor, and timely rescue is required to save the patient's life. Pulmonary edema is generally caused by lung mutation for a long time, and compared with lung cancer, pulmonary edema is more dangerous when it erupts at any time, regardless of whether the rescue is timely or not, there is a certain life-threatening situation. It's basically impossible to heal, so it's better to prevent than to cure. Statistics show that people who live in places with good air quality are many times less likely to suffer from lung disease than those who work with poor air quality, and those who work with more dust and serious air pollution are many times more likely to suffer from lung disease than other occupations.

The probability of lung disease that smokes is many times greater than that of non-smoking, and some people may refute it here, some people smoke and live to be more than 90 years old, and some people live to be 60 years old without smoking, so we can look at the probability of smoking to live to 90 years old or not to smoke to live to 90 years old! To generalize, a little benefit can be infinitely magnified, a lot of crooked reasoning, many benefits can be infinitely reduced, and a little bad will be chased after relentlessly.

It's a phenomenon that you see everywhere in life! In short, it is easy to hurt the lungs and spleen at the turn of summer and autumn, so try to nourish the lungs and spleen in summer and autumn. Pears, figs, peanuts, jujubes, walnuts, cherries, white radish, and many fruits and vegetables are good for strengthening the lungs and spleen. After reading it, you can summarize eating more fruits and vegetables! However, no matter what kind of fruits and vegetables, you should not eat too much. Bai Yi thought about pulmonary edema, looked through the ancient medical books to see if there were any acupuncture points on it that were beneficial to the lungs, and saw if there was a prescription for pulmonary edema.

Combining ancient medical books and modern medical books, it is found that they are all some inhibitory drugs. There is no feasible plan that can ensure a cure, and even if the surgery is successful, the probability of later cure is relatively low, and the prognosis is poor! In the end, Bai Yi thought that it is always more difficult to cure the disease than to prevent it, and looked at some of the acupuncture points that benefit the lungs, and the main acupuncture points of the lung meridian are Zhongfu, Yunmen, Tianfu, Xia Bai, Qi Ze, Kong Shi, Lieqi, Jingqu, Taiyuan, Yuji, Shaoshang 11 acupoints, Yuji acupoint, the effect of asthma is particularly good.

For massage, simply use the kneading technique. The Yuji acupoint is located on the side of the thumb of the palm, the edge of the bulging muscles, massaging this acupoint can regulate qi, clear the lungs, and improve the pharynx, and treat the symptoms caused by lung heat. The Taiyuan acupoint is located in the anterior wrist area, between the radial styloid process and the scaphoid bone, and in the ulnar depression of the abductor pollicis longus tendon, it is not yet known to stretch out the palm and touch it from the top of the thumb, so that the wrist is obviously concave. It has an excellent effect on chest tightness and shortness of breath, and it can be used to treat saliva and blood with the Shenmen acupoint! Zhongfu acupoint, located on the chest, horizontal 1st intercostal space, lateral to the subclavian fossa, 6 inches next to the anterior midline.

At the pectoralis major and pectoralis minor muscles, the medial deep layer is the first intercostal medial and external muscles, the upper lateral side has axillary arteries and veins, the thoracoacromial arteries and veins, and there are intermediate branches of the supraclavicular nerve, anterior thoracic nerve branches and the lateral cutaneous branches of the first intercostal nerve. The main treatment is coughing, wheezing, chest pain, deep breathing chest pain, and the intention is to give acupoints to treat chest choking, that is, I feel that there is something in my throat and I can't swallow chest tightness.

Tianfu acupoint is located in the anterior arm area, 3 inches below the head of the anterior axillary striae, and the radial edge of the biceps brachii is mainly used to treat asthma, epistaxis, arm pain, and gall. Cooperate with the Zhenhui acupoint and Qishe acupoint to treat gall and pharyngeal swelling.

The Yunmen point is located on the chest, in the depression of the subclavian fossa, on the inner edge of the coracoid process of the scapula, and 6 inches next to the anterior midline. It is mainly used for coughing, wheezing, chest pain, shoulder and back pain. Cooperate with Bingfeng acupoint to treat shoulder pain and can't lift, frozen shoulder, and it hurts to raise your arm!

Bai Yi looked at so many acupuncture points that are good for the lungs, tried them one by one on himself, and combined with deep breathing, and finally Bai Yi often smiled and opened his mouth, showing his teeth is good for the spleen and lungs, and often taking deep breaths is good for the lungs. But don't overdo it, because too much will be easy to be happy and sad. In the end, I found a magic prescription of golden balm, which can almost prevent all diseases, eat more fruits and vegetables, drink more water, exercise regularly, and do more aerobic exercise, which basically has a good preventive effect on any disease.

It's a pity that there are a lot of jobs in life that exchange physical health for money, and life needs, you and I are struggling to survive in it! Looking at my lung-benefiting acupuncture points, Bai Yi sighed deeply. Close the book and get up and go out only to find that the sun has been low in the west, only half a head is left, see the east but there is a gorgeous sunset, white clothes back to the door to the crude drug drying area, the small free area is now full of medicinal materials, white clothes can only sigh while quickly sorting all the crude drugs to clean up, many of these crude drugs need time to dry, but unfortunately it will rain tomorrow, can only be taken back home to hang up in the shade to prevent them from moldy loss of efficacy, and even affect the efficacy of the drug to play a counter-effect, good medicine into poison.

Baiyi can only use fine nylon thread to hang a little higher at home to prevent accidentally scratching themselves, hang all the crude drugs one by one and separate, Baiyi then remembered that Panax notoginseng and raspberries have not been made, wash Panax notoginseng, dry it or use it raw to grind fine powder, you can separate the size of Panax notoginseng, pour water, moisten and soften, cut extremely thin slices, and dry this is Panax notoginseng tablets. Panax notoginseng powder, wash and mash, separate the size pieces, fry it with cooking oil until the surface is brown and yellow, scoop it up, and grind it into a fine powder. Put it in a glass bottle in a cool, dry place to prevent sun exposure and moldy insects. Thinking that he didn't know how many days it would rain, Bai Yi first hung up Panax notoginseng to dry it, and if it rained for a long time, it could only be used to make Panax notoginseng powder.

Bai Yi finally looked at the raspberries, there were more than two handfuls, and he had to find a way to concoct them, otherwise it would all be wasted. There are several ways to treat raspberries, the simplest is to directly remove impurities, sieve off the ash and dry it, as for salt raspberries, mix the clean raspberries with salt water, cover them with a lid until the salt water is absorbed, put them in the steamer to steam thoroughly, and take them out to dry. 500g per raspberry, 10g with salt.

Wine raspberries, mix the clean raspberries with the wine, cover until the wine is completely absorbed, put them in a pot and fry them over low heat until the water is collected, pour them out and let them cool. 500g per raspberry, 300g with rice wine. Bai Yi hung a small part of it up and dried it in the shade, and the rest was used to make salt raspberries, cleaned up the raspberries, put them in the basin and sprinkled them with salt and stirred them directly, and when they were done, they covered the lid, Bai Yi washed his hands and sat there to rest and began to prepare dinner, and at night Bai Yi made some tomato and egg soup, Bai Yi preferred to drink soup, and if conditions permitted, Bai Yi felt happy to be able to drink a bowl of soup. When cooking, white clothes can empty their whole body, the whole body is relaxed, many people just want to have a little time after work, even if they squat where to rest for a while and do nothing, or sit there alone and drink a bottle of wine, or lie on the bed to listen to a song, watch a movie, how much time in a day belongs to you and me? (The author said that disease lies in prevention and control, and prevention and control is in the front and control in the back, so it is more beneficial to prevent illness than to control the disease, eat more fruits and vegetables, drink more warm water, exercise more, do more deep breathing and do more aerobic exercise.) Finally, once again correct the name of the little brother who said to drink more boiled water! )
