Zhang Lan thought for a while and said, "It's hard to say the specifics, but after three courses of treatment, there will be improvement." ”

Looking at Li Yuan's somewhat confused eyes, Zhang Lan continued to explain: "Actually, it's nothing, the main thing is to compress the time for conservative treatment of traditional Chinese medicine, so that the original periosteum can be less damaged, and then regenerate as much as possible." There is no cure. ”

Li Yuan nodded and said, "I'll go and ask, and see if Aunt Peng will come." By the way, what do you say about the cost of acupuncture now, is it such a charge on the wall next to it? 20,000 yuan for 10 days for a course of treatment? ”

"On a case-by-case basis, this is generally the case. Each time there are more parts that require acupuncture, the price may be a little higher. Zhang Lan said.

Li Yuan thought for a while and said, "Then when Aunt Peng brings her grandson here, you don't have to tell him how much money it is, I'll solve everything." ”

"Okay, no problem." Zhang Lan said with a smile.

To Zhang Lan's surprise, in the afternoon of the next day, Li Yuan actually led someone over. Aunt Peng in Li Yuan's mouth looks like she is in her early fifties, her hair is neatly combed, and her smile is very amiable. Pushing a small wheelchair with a little boy sitting on it.

After greeting each other, Zhang Lan asked them to sit on the sofa in the room and wait for a while, there was a patient outside who was doing acupuncture, and he would go over after the acupuncture was over.

After sending the patients who came for acupuncture out of the door after acupuncture, Zhang Lan returned to the house and chatted with a few people. Aunt Peng's full name is Peng Xuemei, her son and daughter-in-law are now in the army, and almost all of the children are taken care of by her and her wife, but the child's grandfather takes care of the daily food and transportation to school, and when she treats the child, she is not as careful as Aunt Peng takes care of it.

The child's name is Xu Min, he is eight years old this year, and he has just entered the second grade. Speaking softly, he is very well-behaved. It may be the cause of the disease, and it looks a little lost.

Zhang Lan chatted with the child for a few words, then stretched out her hand to check the child's pulse, and took the child's film handed over by Li Yuan and watched it. and Peng Xuemei on the side said: "Aunt Peng, I am the godfather of Li Yuan's daughter Ning Ning, and I am not an outsider." I'll be straight to the point. ”

Peng Xuemei, who was on the side, opened her mouth and said: "Zhang Lan, you say, I am mentally prepared, the big hospitals and specialized hospitals in Kyoto have basically run through during this period of time. It's just that now the child is too young, and if there is a way to be an old man, he always wants to try. ”

"Then I'll get straight to the point. Since Aunt Peng has been to a lot of hospitals, I won't say much about it, it's basically the same thing. Now the child's condition is from the middle stage to the end stage, and now the main thing through traditional Chinese medicine and physical therapy is to alleviate the condition, and if you want to cure it, you basically need to replace the joint through surgery. Zhang Lan said.

"No surgery. The doctor said that the child is still young, and if he has surgery, he will have to change it at least three or four times in his life. If you can treat it conservatively, you will treat it conservatively, and if you can't do it, you won't have surgery. Peng Xuemei hurriedly spoke.

Zhang Lan smiled and said: "Aunt Peng, I mainly said that this disease is my acupuncture, that is, the conservative treatment that originally took about two years to control the condition, and shorten the time through acupuncture." Children can return to normal life as soon as possible, but they still need to take medicine. As for whether it can be cured, I can't guarantee this, after all, there are local structural changes in the femoral head, and the hope of a cure is too slim. ”

"If you can shorten the time, the doctors in the hospital now say that if you want to be conservatively treated by physical and traditional Chinese medicine, it will take at least one year to stabilize the condition, and you must also receive frequent hospitalization, so that it is more convenient to observe the development of the disease. Zhang Lan: Does your acupuncture have any effect on the treatment of children now? Peng Xuemei asked.

"There is no impact. Try to come to me every day at a fixed time to receive acupuncture, how to treat and how to continue to receive treatment. The treatment is a 10-day course with a week or 10 days in between. Basically, after two courses of treatment, take a film or do an imaging to see, and then decide the location and duration of acupuncture according to the specific situation. Zhang Lan explained.

Peng Xuemei immediately made a decision and said: "Then let's start today, prick the needle for the child first, and then talk about the rest." ”

Let Xu Min lie on the acupuncture bed in the acupuncture room at the door, Zhang Lan took out the silver needle to disinfect and quickly pricked the needle in Xu Min's waist and crotch.

Peng Xuemei, who had been watching at the door of the acupuncture room, saw Xu Min being held by Zhang Lan and sat down in the acupuncture room, and asked Xu Min in a wheelchair with some excitement: "Xiaomin, how do you feel about your legs when you walked just now?" Is there a little better than before? ”

Xu Min, who was in a wheelchair, thought for a while, gestured to the root of his thigh and said to Peng Xuemei: "Grandma, when Uncle Zhang Lan gave me acupuncture just now, I felt numb in my thighs. ”

Zhang Lan on the side wiped her hands with the wet towels on the table and said, "Even if you can sit on Mumu, try not to move around first, if you really want to walk, Aunt Peng, you'd better find a pair of small crutches for Xu Min to hold first." ”

Peng Xuemei nodded: "The doctor also said that if you can walk, it is best to use crutches, and it is best to sit in a wheelchair less." ”

"Pay more attention to this. After this disease, the main thing is to pay more attention, try to do less strenuous activities, and don't do physical work......" Zhang Lan said with a smile:

"I guess you know this specific precautions, Aunt Peng, what I said in passing is similar to what I said in my hometown. This is mainly to pay attention to rest and calcium supplementation, and do a good job of regular check-ups. ”

After standing at the door to see off Peng Xuemei and her grandson Xu Min, Zhang Lan found that Li Yuan did not get into the car with her, but stayed. asked casually, "Li Yuan, won't you go with them?" ”

Li Yuan said with a smile: "I am just pulling a line today and being a leader." Now that the acupuncture has passed, Aunt Peng will definitely have to talk to his son and daughter-in-law on the phone in the car, and it is not good for me to sit on it, and I will take a taxi by myself for a while. ”

"Let's sit in the house first, it's still early." Zhang Lan opened her mouth to invite.

When they arrived at the tea table in the room, the two sat down. Zhang Lan said while making tea: "I think Aunt Peng should retire early, and now her grandson is like this, even if she receives acupuncture from me, she doesn't have the heart to go to school to work." ”

Li Yuan said with a helpless smile: "I can also see it, but Ning Ning has already signed up now." As long as your acupuncture can control Xu Min's condition as soon as possible, you can return to school as soon as possible. When Ning Ning enrolls in September, she will always have to contribute. ”
