Chapter 032: Set fire to the mountain
"Dean Xiong, what do you mean?" Niu Dabao was born in Western medicine, or he couldn't keep up with Xiong Changlong, a big bull who practiced both Chinese and Western medicine.
"Use Chinese medicine and acupuncture to solve the problem!" Xiong Changlong replied.
"TCM acupuncture?" Niu Dabao frowned, "Can TCM acupuncture treat juvenile idiopathic arthritis? I haven't heard of similar cases!" As he spoke, he looked at Li Xiaoxin, the director of the TCM Department who was sitting diagonally across from him, "Director Xiaoxin, have you ever had a similar case in the TCM Department?"
Li Xiaoxin, a middle-aged doctor with a relatively small height, listened to Niu Dabao ask him, thought about it carefully, shook his head slightly, and said: "Our TCM department mainly treats middle-aged and elderly patients, and young patients are extremely rare, and patients with special diseases such as juvenile idiopathic arthritis have never been treated, so I have no say in this issue!"
"Director Xiaoxin, I just criticized Niu Dabao for not being able to eat books, but I didn't expect you, the director of traditional Chinese medicine, to be strong enough to go there!" Xiong Changlong shook his head with a sigh and asked: "What was the original name of the disease of juvenile idiopathic arthritis, Director Xiaoxin, do you remember?"
Li Xiaoxin shook his head awkwardly, he didn't study the topic in this direction, and he couldn't talk about paying attention to it, so he couldn't answer Xiong Changlong's question.
Fang Shengxue sat at the end of the table, lightly touched Ren Jiangchi's arm with her elbow, and asked him, "Jiang Chi, do you know what the original name was?"
"Originally called a sharp name?" Ren Jiangchi shrugged his shoulders and said, "Class leader, you students don't know about the question, come and ask me this scumbag, do you think you can get the answer?"
"The so-called heir of the Hongcheng Ren clan is nothing more than that!" Fang Shengxue snorted and ignored Ren Jiangchi no more.
At that time, Niu Dabao, who was sitting next to Xiong Changlong, answered this answer, "Dean Xiong, I remember that it should have been called juvenile rheumatoid arthritis before, and then the expert group of the Pediatric Standing Committee of the International Union of Rheumatology renamed this disease as juvenile idiopathic arthritis. ”
"Yes, you're right, this condition was originally called juvenile rheumatoid arthritis," Xiong Changlong nodded and said, "Dabao, have you ever heard of TCM acupuncture for the treatment of juvenile idiopathic arthritis, but you have always heard of TCM acupuncture for the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis, right?"
Speaking of this, Xiong Changlong turned his head to look at Li Xiaoxin again, "Not only Dabao, Director Xiaoxin, you should have heard of it, and even treated patients with rheumatoid arthritis with traditional Chinese medicine and acupuncture, right?"
"I have indeed treated many patients with rheumatoid arthritis, and the results are quite satisfactory!" Li Xiaoxin nodded and admitted.
"Isn't this it!" Xiong Changlong slapped his face, "The pathogenesis of juvenile rheumatoid arthritis is the same as that of ordinary rheumatoid arthritis, and the difference lies in the age of the patients. Since TCM acupuncture is effective for adult patients with rheumatoid arthritis, it should be equally effective for children with juvenile rheumatoid arthritis. ”
"There's still a difference, right?" Niu Dabao questioned, "Compared with adult patients, children's bodies are still developing, and their bones, joints, and connective tissues are more sensitive and fragile, and they are more susceptible to rheumatoid factor and antinuclear antibodies!"
"Rheumatoid factor and antinuclear antibodies are the terms of Western medicine," Xiong Changlong interrupted Niu Dabao and said: "In traditional Chinese medicine, it is more customary to call it the patient's body deficiency and cold, so whether it is juvenile idiopathic arthritis or rheumatoid arthritis, it can be attributed to the deficiency of cold caused by deficiency cold syndrome." ”
"Of course, Dabao, what you said is right, there is still a difference between adults and children suffering from the same deficiency and cold pain, so there should also be a difference when taking TCM acupuncture treatment techniques. ”
"If you are an adult patient with rheumatoid arthritis, as long as you take ordinary acupuncture techniques such as twisting, turning, lifting and inserting to screen the cold in the body, you can achieve good results. Director Li Xiaoxin should have a deep understanding of this!"
"What Dean Xiong said is right, when I treat patients with rheumatoid arthritis, I basically use the technique of twisting and turning to strengthen the bones and drive away the cold, and help the patients gradually recover. Li Xiaoxin replied.
Xiong Changlong nodded at Li Xiaoxin, thanking him for standing up in support of his views. Then he continued, "But for children with juvenile idiopathic arthritis, that is, juvenile rheumatoid arthritis, it is not possible to use ordinary twisting and lifting acupuncture techniques to strengthen bones and drive away cold, because the effect is too slow, and in many cases, the cold in the child's disease link has not been removed, and the child's other joints are also affected by the cold and begin to develop the disease." ”
"Therefore, for children with juvenile idiopathic arthritis, more radical acupuncture methods must be adopted, and I generally take ......" Speaking of this, Xiong Changlong looked around, and his eyes finally fell on Zhou Rujun's body, "Director Zhou, this acupuncture method I used sounds a bit of a crime, called arson to the mountain!"
"Set fire to the mountain?" Zhou Rujun paused, obviously he had never heard of such acupuncture and moxibustion acupuncture, and it sounded so cruel and sharp.
Ren Jiangchi saw Fang Shengxue turn his head to look at him again, so he hurriedly waved his hand and replied first: "Don't look at me, I have never heard of this sharp ghost setting fire to the mountain!"
Fang Shengxue turned her head again and looked at Xiong Changlong, expecting him to give an answer.
"Set fire to the mountain?" Li Xiaoxin slapped the table excitedly, "Dean Xiong, is this arson of the mountain you are talking about is the acupuncture method of burning the mountain?"
"That's right!" Xiong Changlong nodded and replied with a smile: "It was born from the Mountain Fire Needle Method, but I improved it, and the effect came more quickly." ”
"Lao Li, what is a mountain fire?" Qian Fangzhao saw that Zhou Rujun wanted to know the answer, so he asked Li Xiaoxin just right.
"Dean Qian," Li Xiaoxin replied excitedly, "Burning mountain fires is one of the ancient techniques of acupuncture and moxibustion in traditional Chinese medicine, and it was first discussed in detail in the chapter "Su Wen Acupuncture Solution". It is mainly used for the treatment of various cold syndromes, and is the most representative hot supplement acupuncture method in Chinese medicine acupuncture. ”
"It's just that this kind of acupuncture is easy to learn and difficult to master, and it requires a lot of personal talent, I have studied it for more than 30 years, and now I am only staying at the level of entry!
Speaking of this, he looked at Xiong Changlong with burning eyes, "Dean Xiong, do you still bring on-the-job graduate students now? If you still do, I want to apply for your graduate school and learn the needle method of setting fire to the mountain with you!"
