Those who study Chinese medicine do not understand Chinese medicine, and those who understand Chinese medicine do not understand Chinese medicine!

Lu Xuan nodded noncommittally.

There is nothing wrong with this in Western medicine.

Western medicine is not responsible for pharmaceuticals from the beginning, and pharmaceutical is the business of pharmaceutical companies, while Western medicine only needs to prescribe drugs according to the symptoms.

But traditional Chinese medicine is different, since its birth, traditional Chinese medicine has always been inseparable from traditional Chinese medicine, otherwise there would be no Shennong tasting herbs.

In the past, most of the Chinese medicine was picked by oneself and tried the medicine by himself, so he knew the effect of Chinese medicine.

Now, although the TCM physicians who have come out of the University of Chinese Medicine probably know about Chinese medicine, they have little understanding of the pharmacology and medical theory of Chinese medicine.

This is why there is the emergence of the saying that those who study Chinese medicine do not understand Chinese medicine, and those who understand Chinese medicine do not understand Chinese medicine.

The worldview and methods of Chinese medicine are very different from those of Western medicine, learning Western medicine is a logical relationship, while Chinese medicine is completely different, and there is no "optimal" method in Chinese medicine, only the "most appropriate" method.

Lu Xuan has personally seen many miracles of traditional Chinese medicine, and even from the time he gained the ability to hear the voice of traditional Chinese medicine, he used the knowledge he learned and those magical Chinese medicines to pull back many people who had been sentenced to death by Western medicine from the ghost gate.

Moreover, this is not just one or two, but quite a few people.

Since coming into contact with traditional Chinese medicine, Lu Xuan has always felt that traditional Chinese medicine is a business card of our country, and it is not unreasonable.

When talking about Chinese culture with a European or American, the other party may not understand it, or even know much, but when it comes to Chinese medicine, the first thing that comes to mind is Chinese medicine acupuncture.

Because acupuncture is magical, Chinese medicine is popular with many people overseas, which is why Lu Xuan feels that there is no need to be arrogant because of the power of Western medicine.

There is no need to feel that there is no hope of taking back the dominant power from Western medicine.

There is hope, and there is no small hope.

It's just that Lu Xuan also knows that this matter cannot be completed by him alone, but needs to rely on the efforts of thousands of Chinese medicine practitioners and everyone's firm beliefs.

However, Chinese medicine is very good, but everyone's understanding of Chinese medicine is not accurate.

For example, a lot of common sense, "The Yellow Emperor's Neijing" and other ancient Chinese medical classics have been written, but everyone seems to not read the original book, but is more inclined to hearsay on the Internet.

Many people think that Chinese medicine is very easy to learn, for example, some people go to acupuncture once, and they think it is very good and simple, and they turn their heads and ask the Chinese medicine practitioner who gave them acupuncture if they can do it themselves.

It is good to have confidence, but it is also wrong to have this kind of thinking, acupuncture and massage have a whole set of acupuncture point theories, which cannot be learned casually.

Lu Xuan still remembered that before coming to this world, the old man in the family did not have good blood pressure, so he got some notoginseng powder, and the old man thought it was very good, so he blindly worshiped the notoginseng powder and vigorously promoted it to the patients around him.

But in fact, Panax notoginseng powder is not a "panacea" that can cure everything, and different people have different causes and different symptoms, so they cannot be generalized.

Traditional Chinese medicine cannot be eaten casually, it is a three-point poison, and traditional Chinese medicine is no exception.

Moreover, the "separation of medicine" has created a bad place.

That is, people who study Chinese medicine do not understand Chinese medicine, and people who understand Chinese medicine do not understand Chinese medicine.

A person who studies medicine only needs to prescribe medicine, and he does not need to take the medicine himself.

But in fact, even if it is the same medicine, it is divided into north, south, and region, and the efficacy is different.

There is also a saying in the Chinese medicine industry, "The current school cannot produce good doctors".

Students are busy, teachers are busy, busy with papers, busy teaching, busy with exams, and have little time to sit in the clinic and see a doctor.

Zhijiang University of Traditional Chinese Medicine is a very good school, but it is generally seven or eight or even a dozen students around a famous Chinese medicine doctor to see how he takes the pulse, how to prescribe prescriptions, and how to sit for consultation.

There are too few famous Chinese medicine doctors, and there is not much exercise for students.

In addition, the young doctor does not dare to prescribe more than the prescribed dose of medicine, for fear of adverse reactions to patients, he would rather prescribe "safe drugs" than "make mistakes", because patients have adverse reactions to be held responsible.

Of course, this is true, but for some diseases, only overdose medicine is effective, and many old Chinese medicine doctors also do this, but now everyone does not dare.

However, now the state has seen these situations and is paying more and more attention.

These conditions are improving step by step, and the development and growth of Chinese medicine is predictable.

Thinking of these, Lu Xuan smiled slightly: "This is a fact, but you don't have to worry about it, there are some things we can take into account, and the above can also be taken into account, the magic of Chinese medicine is obvious to all, and it is impossible for it to dissipate invisibly because of the rise and suppression of Western medicine, and it will not dissipate."

Not to mention, on the side of the above insurance committee, nine times out of ten are traditional Chinese medicine practitioners, which is enough to explain a lot of problems. ”

"I hope so!" Zhang Guangli just sighed.

Although the current situation is indeed similar to what Lu Xuan said.

However, if he really has to wait until the day of change, the day of the rise of Chinese medicine, he is afraid that it will be difficult for him to see.

Of course, there may be a chance.

Zhang Guangli's gaze fell on Lu Xuan, and a deep meaning flashed in the depths of his eyes.

If...... If it is the words of this young man in front of him, maybe he can lead Chinese medicine to prosperity.

He...... Excellent!

It's so good that you can't even feel a trace of jealousy.

Perhaps seeing the worry in Zhang Guangli's heart, Lu Xuan said again: "Traditional Chinese medicine can be inherited for thousands of years, and even now there is a trend of ZTE, not without reason, the magical effect is one of them, and this is not only that. ”

Speaking of the magic of traditional Chinese medicine, Zhang Guangli thought for a while, and then seemed to think of something, and said: "Speaking of this, it reminds me of an incident more than ten years ago. ”

"What's the matter?" Lu Xuan asked curiously.

Zhang Guangli thought for a while and said: "When I was more than ninety years old, I knew a patient with gouty arthritis, but this patient was special, he was a surgeon in a key hospital......

"How can I say it......"

Speaking of this, Zhang Guangli hesitated for a moment before saying: "He is a Western doctor who once regarded Chinese medicine as an evil thing that he hated to the bone, but it was because of that gouty arthritis that he had a drastic change in Chinese medicine.

At that time, my father was still there, but he didn't sit for a doctor, basically the patients who came were looking at me, and at that time, my medical skills had actually surpassed my father's, so he felt that he didn't need to sit for a consultation. ”

Speaking of this, Zhang Guangli continued to talk about the Western doctor: "After the Western doctor came to us, in fact, I could see that it was a reluctance, but it was brought by a friend, and it was not easy to say anything, after all, even if I didn't want to, I had to take care of my friend's face, so I talked about some of my own situations."

said that seven days ago, for unknown reasons, the left toe was red, swollen, hot and painful, and he didn't dare to touch it, because he was also a doctor, so he did an examination at the doctor, and after laboratory tests, it was found that it was gout.

Since he was a surgeon, I asked, "Why don't you choose Western medicine or surgery?"

I thought he thought that Western medicine was not good, and he could only take Chinese medicine, and he trusted Chinese medicine more, but I didn't expect that he immediately said, don't say it, I don't look down on Chinese medicine at all. ”

Lu Xuan was slightly stunned, some Western doctors don't look down on Chinese medicine, he doesn't think it's strange, this kind of thing is more common in the medical world.

And it's an isolated case, but it's always there.

In fact, the vast majority of Western doctors do not look down on Chinese medicine and feel that Chinese medicine does not conform to modern science.

The same herb, different parts, even the active ingredients are the same, how can the corresponding symptoms be different?

This is not only not understood by Western medicine, but in fact, many Chinese medicine practitioners are half-understood.

However, Lu Xuan didn't say anything, just asked, "What did he say later?" ”

Zhang Guangli said: "He said, Western medicine can obviously solve the problem in a few hours after surgery, why wait longer, the disease may not be cured, but the time to suffer is longer!"

Besides, you see, now that medical devices are so advanced, tumors and cysts that can be detected by machines are not judged by machines in traditional Chinese medicine, so now is the era of modern medicine.

When I heard him say this, I was a little unhappy at the time, but when I thought that the other party was a patient who came to see me, I sighed and asked him: Then why are you here today?

At that time, he said a sentence that I still can't forget: I want to use Chinese medicine to treat my gouty arthritis, but I can't get better with Western medicine.

At that time, I thought it was funny, on the one hand, I looked down on Chinese medicine, and on the other hand, when I encountered a problem that Western medicine could not solve, I wanted to see if there was any good way to do Chinese medicine, how could people be so contradictory? ”

Speaking of this, Zhang Guangli laughed at himself, and then said: "I took a general look at his situation, and saw that his tongue was red and greasy, and his pulse was counted.

Based on the symptoms mentioned by the other party, the waist and knees are sore, and I usually like to eat meat, but recently I found that my appetite has decreased, and I feel bloated.

At that time, he was prescribed a prescription. ”

Lu Xuan wanted to open his mouth to ask what the recipe was, but after thinking about it, more than ten years have passed, and Zhang Guangli may not necessarily remember, but Zhang Guangli seems to see Lu Xuan's thoughts, and said with a smile: "I still remember the recipe, Poria cocos, knotweed, talc, coix seed, earth dragon, white zombie silkworm, turtle insect, whole scorpion, He Shou Wu, Atractylodes." ”

Lu Xuan smiled, but he didn't expect the other party to see what he was thinking.

Zhang Guangli continued: "Doctor Lu guessed what he said after reading the prescription I prescribed? ”

"What?"

He took the prescription and sneered, you really have a lot of tricks, so many medicines won't poison me, right? I was a little angry at the time, and I didn't feel anything if I said it to other patients, but the other party has a special identity, a Western doctor, or a Western doctor who looks down on our Chinese medicine, I thought about not showing him, but I turned my head and thought about it, I have to be cured, and I have to cure the other party, and I have to fundamentally change the other party's view of Chinese medicine. ”

Lu Xuan nodded.

If TCM wants to be widely known, it must not only have the voice of the patient, but also the voice of the opponent.

Zhang Guangli's reason triumphed over impulse.

"You're doing the right thing."

Zhang Guangli smiled: "I went back at the time, saying that if you want to try, you can go back and take it on time." My outpatient clinic is open every day, and I don't dare to joke with the lives of patients. If you have any questions, feel free to come to me.

Three days later, he came for a follow-up visit and said that all the symptoms on his body had disappeared, and he really couldn't think that Chinese medicine was more effective than Western medicine!

I said that the treatment of diseases in traditional Chinese medicine does not depend on whether the medicine is strong or not, but the right medicine is the king.

Moreover, there are more exquisiteness in traditional Chinese medicine, unlike Western medicine, which "treats headaches and heads and feet and hurts feet", a headache in Chinese medicine may have to be treated from head to toe!

Again, he had arthritic pain and was gouty in nature. But the medicine I prescribed was indeed based on strengthening the spleen and tonifying the kidneys, with damp heat poison as the standard, and finally supplemented by turbidity and toxin.

First of all, Atractylodes atractylodes strengthens the spleen and dampness, Dr. Lu, you also know that "the spleen is mainly transported", and the meridians are blocked, which is closely related to the spleen.

Secondly, Polygonum multiflorum benefits the kidneys and replenishes yin, prevents dampness and injures yin, prevents blood activation and injury, and strengthens the function of turbidity.

In addition, Poria cocos and knotweed clear dampness and heat, detoxification is beneficial to joint swelling; Coix seed is damp, can discharge dampness, heat and turbidity in the body, and attract evil spirits to go out.

Finally, add the earth dragon, white zombie silkworm, turtle insect, and the whole scorpion to dispel weathering turbidity and stasis.

After listening to what I said, he said at the time that he had not entered the right industry, that he should have studied Chinese medicine at that time, and that he had only cared about cheating, and that he had made a lot of money, but his soul was lost. This incorrect perception has always misled patients to see and treat patients.

It wasn't until today that I woke up to the fact that Western medicine is not everything right, and it seems that Chinese medicine has declined, often can exert energy that cannot be ignored, and the most important thing is that Chinese medicine is really not as big as the side effects of Western medicine, many Chinese medicines are even medicine and food are homologous, and there are no side effects at all.

And when it comes to treating gout, he said that painkillers are like brainwashing, day after day, labor and money are dead, and there is no soul to cure the disease, but it is so unreasonable!

A healer, without a soul, is like a liar walking in the rivers and lakes, treacherous and cunning.

To tell the truth, Dr. Lu, I really feel quite sad to see the pharmacies on the street today, the former doctors would rather have medicine on the shelves and dust, than people in the world who are disease-free, now go to the pharmacy and walk around, people want you to buy the whole pharmacy medicine.

Sometimes, a small cold, obviously a box of ordinary cold medicine may be fine, but the moment you come out of the pharmacy, you are carrying a big bag of medicine, and a small cold seems to have become a terminal illness. ”

Hearing this, Lu Xuan was silent for a while, two days ago he was still thinking about the matter of Hui'an Pharmacy, and now that Zhang Guangli mentioned these again, he was also a little uncomfortable in his heart, but after thinking about it, he still said: "The top and bottom are changing, and this situation has changed for the better."

Moreover, as doctors, there are some things that we can't change, and we can't change them, so the behavior of the market will be handed over to the market, and what we have to do is to do our best, be optimistic about every patient, and be worthy of our hearts. ”

Zhang Guangli nodded noncommittally: "You are right, just be worthy of your heart!" ”
