Chapter 31: Etiology and Pathogenesis of Intractable Asthma
Maybe it was the treatment of a pig that brought Li Maoyang some luck, and someone came to Li Maoyang to see a doctor, it was an old Mongolian man named Na Rentai in Qunan Village.
The word "eighty" means "eighty", and the name is clearly intended to be a desire for a long life.
Naren is in her fifties and has had asthma for more than 10 years, and she has been unable to get rid of the root cause when she goes to the hospital to find several doctors for treatment, and she will have an attack every spring.
"I heard Xiaorong say that your medical skills are really good, so I asked you to take a look, I hope the effect can be better." The old man said a little panting.
Yan Xiaorong introduced it?
That guy didn't come for a follow-up visit after taking the medicine, it seems that he was really cured, and this time he even introduced a patient to him? It's kind of hearted.
Li Maoyang thought so in his heart, poured a glass of water for the old man, and began to observe the patient carefully.
The lungs are mainly fur, and people with lung problems will most likely be reflected in this skin.
This old man's face was dark and rough, not the healthy and shiny Mucuna black roughness that was exposed to the wind and sun, but the dull and dull rough Mucuna with a sick appearance.
Li Maoyang has seen a doctor so far, and he can finally distinguish these two complexions clearly.
In addition, this Rentai's nostrils are a little wide, his eyes are bloodshot, and the color between his eyebrows is also a little black.
These are all signs of problems with the lungs.
Listening to the old man's speech, he was wheezing, and there was a faint wheezing sound in his chest, which was more laborious.
"Uncle, what kind of medicine do you usually take to control it?" Li Maoyang began the consultation.
Now he puts the face-to-face diagnosis, smell diagnosis and interview together, and the tongue diagnosis and pulse diagnosis at the end as the final basis for diagnosis.
"Aminophylline and some hormones." Na Ren Tai said.
Li Maoyang sighed in his heart, now this Western medicine and Western medicine are really deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, even the Mongolian old man in this village can casually report the name of Western medicine, and he also knows which drugs he takes are hormone drugs.
However, with the popularization of Western medicine and Western medicine, most of us also know that Western medicine cannot be eaten often, such as this hormone medicine can not be eaten often, and it is easy to get osteoporosis and other problems when eaten often, and most of these Western medicines treat the symptoms but not the root cause.
Therefore, most people who know a little bit of brain use Western medicine to control their condition, and then find Chinese medicine to slowly regulate and cure the root cause.
The luckiest thing in our country is that there are two kinds of medicine to choose from, complementary to each other.
After a series of consultations, Li Maoyang wrote down a series of symptoms in his notebook, the main problems were fatigue and shortness of breath, normal sweating, and extremely susceptible to colds.
Fatigue is physical weakness, there is both blood deficiency and qi deficiency, lack of qi and blood, just like a car lacking oil, naturally no strength.
It is easy to sweat, this is because yang deficiency cannot take yin, and yang energy cannot control the fluid, so it is naturally easy for the fluid to leak into sweat.
Usually easy to catch a cold is also the truth, the human body surface has a layer of guard qi (body surface yang) and camp fluid (body surface fluid), this is a two-layer level to protect the human body, just like the soldiers standing guard on the border, these two levels of checkpoints are not forced, wind and cold and other diseases are easy to invade, people are naturally prone to cold.
One of the more specific reasons is that the health qi is weak and cannot fix the camp liquid, so the intestines (border defense) are wide open, and the disease and evil invade from time to time.
The lungs are mainly fur, and this guard qi is mainly managed by the lungs, and at the same time, the lungs are mainly used to distribute the camp fluid to the body surface by the lung qi, so if the defense troops do not give strength, they are mainly responsible for the lungs.
The relationship between the lungs and the two-layer border checkpoint of the human body surface is so close.
Therefore, it can also be seen from the poor border defense that there is a problem with the lungs.
That's too old man, this is easy to sweat and easy to catch a cold, and the border defense is not strong!
So there must be something wrong with his lungs!
Shortness of breath, isn't that more indicative of a problem with the lungs?
So why is it short of breath?
On the one hand, the lack of yang qi is not enough, and on the other hand, is there a barrier to the circulation of breath in the lungs?
Why is there a barrier to the flow of breath?
Phlegm and dampness block the meridians of the lungs!
Like the old man who has had asthma for more than ten years, there must be old phlegm in the meridians of the lungs!
That kind of extremely viscous, extremely stubborn old phlegm!
These old phlegm is hidden deep in the meridians of the lungs, and when the air flow passes through these meridians, it is like encountering a big stone, and the road is not smooth, so it has to force the meridians of the lungs to bulge, forming an explosive roaring effect!
Those wheezing sounds are the explosive roars that keep coming from the meridians of the lungs!
In spring, it is windy, and the wind invades the lung meridians, so that the air flow in the lung meridians is several times more than ten times that of usual, which makes the lung meridians often expand and explode!
Therefore, in order to cure the root cause, we must dissolve these old phlegm and then clean it up. At the same time, you have to try not to let more phlegm in your body!
The spleen is the source of phlegm, and the lungs are the storage of phlegm, which is to treat the spleen again, let the spleen work healthily, and turn the subtle substances of water ingested by the human body into qi and blood, so that the waste water is less, so that the wastewater will not be wet and gather into drink, and drink into phlegm!
Li Maoyang still understands this large set of medical theories.
The key is how to clean up the old phlegm in the lung meridians, how to strengthen the spleen, there is too much knowledge in this, involving both medical science and pharmacology, complex and subtle, not a beginner can do it!
So it's up to the Qihuang system to help.
After the face-to-face consultation, smell diagnosis and questioning, Li Maoyang began to do a tongue diagnosis for Na Rentai.
"Uncle, stick out your tongue and let me see." Li Maoyang said.
Na Ren Tai cooperated and stuck out her tongue.
Li Maoyang carefully observed and distinguished for a while, combined with the face diagnosis and tongue diagnosis to complete the diagnosis of the visit, and reported to the system: "The conclusion of the visit is that the patient's face is dark and rough, dull and dull, the tongue is fat, the tongue is light, and the tongue coating is thin and white. ”
"The diagnosis conclusion of the host visit is basically correct, and the drug effect will be deduced once!" The mechanical voice of the system, "Combined with the system's prescribing reward obtained by the host for the previous treatment of the pig, does the host want to combine the two rewards into one experience of the etiology and pathogenesis of two symbiotic diseases?" ”
"Hey!" Li Maoyang said without hesitation.
Last time, he experienced the dampness of rheumatoid arthritis, but he has not experienced wind paralysis and cold paralysis.
This is very helpful for him to deeply understand the disease of rheumatoid arthritis, and he must experience it again.
As for the big reward given by the system for experiencing two symbiotic diseases this time, this is probably because the reward for prescribing medicine is a heavyweight reward in itself.
Well, this time I should be able to experience wind paralysis and cold paralysis at once!
As for whether he can get the reward of prescribing medicine on behalf of the system this time and avoid the mistake of prescribing medicine to Na Rentai, it depends on his report below!
