Chinese medicine: from rural hospitals to top three hospitals in Kyoto

"I do not understand?"

Chen Yang asked Jiang Dongfei with a smile.

"Ah."

Jiang Dongfei said: "Ephedra soup?"

Yes, the prescription prescribed by Chen Yang is Ephedra Decoction, which only contains four herbs: ephedra, almond, cinnamon twig and licorice.

Jiang Dongfei may not recognize it in other recipes, but Jiang Dongfei can still recognize it in Ephedra Tang.

Chen Yang prescribed ephedra soup, which made Jiang Dongfei very puzzled.

"Then tell me." Chen Yang said.

"Ah..." Jiang Dongfei was stunned.

"Say it." Chen Yang encouraged.

"Then I'll say it."

Jiang Dongfei just didn't know whether it was appropriate to say it in front of the patient's family. Since Chen Yang asked him to say it, he would say it.

"Ephedra decoction is used to treat exogenous wind and cold. It is used to treat headaches and body aches. The patient has no aversion to cold, fever, cough, edema, or rubella. How can he use ephedra decoction?" Jiang Dongfei asked doubtfully.

"Ephedra decoction contains cinnamon twigs, almonds and licorice. It can relieve sweating and relieve lung qi. It is suitable for treating typhoid fever without sweating."

Chen Yang said: "You are right. The symptoms of Ephedra Decoction are exactly as you said, but you have to look at the patient's condition."

Chen Yang said, "The patient has a floating pulse and no sweating. What should I do?"

"All symptoms should be explained first. If they are on the skin, they are caused by sweating."

Jiang Dongfei said subconsciously.

After finishing speaking, Jiang Dongfei was stunned.

If this statement is followed, then Chen Yang is very correct in using Ephedra Decoction to relieve sweating.

"But, but..."

Jiang Dongfei was a little confused for a while, but could dialectics still be used like this?

Can ephedra soup still be used in this way?

When he was in class at the Medical University a few days ago, Chen Yang said that even if you are proficient in one or two prescriptions, you can actually treat many diseases. The most typical ones are Mahuang Decoction and Xiaobuihu Decoction.

But Jiang Dongfei didn't expect that today, Jin Hui's mother's illness could be treated with ephedra soup?

This.......

Such a disease is considered very difficult in Western medicine.

Depression can be said to be a disease that is very difficult to treat nowadays. As the saying goes, a heart disease needs a heart medicine. In fact, most of the causes of depression are that you can't figure it out, or you can't figure it out, so the treatment is not easy.

Jin Hui's mother had been treated by Chinese medicine doctors before, but for such a disease, Chen Yang used such a simple prescription.

"Floating pulse is the location of Yang superficial disease..."

Chen Yang said: "The floating pulse controls the surface, and the patient does not sweat, so he needs to relieve the surface and cause sweating. If he relieves the surface and causes sweating, he can use Ephedra Decoction."

As he spoke, Chen Yang paused and continued: "In addition to relieving symptoms and causing sweating, Ephedra Decoction can also relieve the lungs. The "Huangdi Neijing" says that all stagnant Qi belongs to the lungs."

"The lung qi is released, and the turbid qi can be exhaled; the lung qi is suppressed, and the clean qi can be inhaled."

Chen Yang explained: "For patients with depression, the lungs are like a door or a window."

"In a dull room, with the door closed and the windows closed, it will naturally give people a dull feeling. If you are in a bad mood, you will become more bored and depressed."

"If you open the windows and doors at this time and let the air circulate, people's depression will be swept away. Seeing the sunshine outside and breathing the air outside will make your mood better."

Listening to Chen Yang's explanation, Jiang Dongfei even felt like he was enlightened.

He has studied medicine for so many years, five years as an undergraduate, three years as a master's student, and two years as a PhD student.

Jiang Dongfei has been studying medicine for ten years. He went to college at the age of 19 and is now 29, which means he is already 30 years old.

After studying for so many years, Jiang Dongfei's basics are actually pretty good. He has analyzed some medical records and seen a lot of them, but following Chen Yang, Jiang Dongfei's eyes were really opened.

Clinical practice is really completely different from what is described in books. Various medicines can be used in this way, and dialectics can be used in this way?

"Mr. Jin, let the old lady take this prescription first. If there is no effect after three doses, come back for a follow-up consultation. If it is effective, continue taking it for a course of treatment."

Chen Yang handed Jin Hui the prescription, which he prescribed for seven doses.

"Thank you, Dr. Chen."

Jin Hui took the prescription and thanked him repeatedly.

Jin Hui was listening to the conversation between Chen Yang and Jiang Dongfei just now, and what he heard was true.

Although Chen Yang was explaining to Jiang Dongfei, he was actually giving Jin Hui confidence.

According to what Jin Hui said at that time, Jin Hui did not let the old lady use the prescription that Lin Yuanping prescribed. In other words, Jin Hui did not trust the prescription after seeing it.

Although Chen Yang's prescription has never been prescribed by a medical practitioner, on the surface, this ephedra decoction does not seem to be very symptomatic. If an incompetent doctor saw it, he might say "nonsense."

Chen Yang was also worried that after he left, Jin Hui would find someone to confirm the recipe. This kind of thing can be said to be a high probability event.

The richer the person, the more well-connected they are, and sometimes the more cautious they are. Just like Wang Yiping last time, on the surface he did not stop Chen Yang from taking medicine, but he consulted He Wenliang.

If Jin Hui asks someone to find out, it's okay if the other person's skills are good enough, but if he is a half-hearted dilettante with no professional title and reputation, this recipe may be lost.

"Mr. Jin, you're welcome."

Chen Yang smiled and didn't stay any longer. He stood up and said, "Then we'll leave first."

"I'll send Doctor Chen off."

Jin Hui hurriedly got up and personally escorted Chen Yang and the three of them off. As they left, Jin Hui stuffed an envelope into Chen Yang: "Doctor Chen, go slowly."

"Mr. Jin, please stay."

Chen Yang did not refuse and put it directly in his pocket to collect the consultation fee. This was a normal thing, but the consultation fee given by Jin Hui was obviously quite large. After Chen Yang felt it, it should be almost [-] yuan.

In fact, the last time Lin Yuanping came over, Jin Hui's consultation fee was only [-]. During this period, some doctors came and did not treat the patient, and Jin Hui's consultation fee was [-].

But Jin Hui clearly neglected Chen Yang last time, and he wanted to make up for it this time, so he gave him [-] yuan.

The consultation fee of [-] yuan is already as high as that of the chief physicians of some tertiary hospitals. Even some chief doctors can hardly afford such high consultation fees. Some surgeons charge [-] yuan for flying surgery. The knife fees and consultation fees of [-] yuan are the pillars or chiefs of each hospital.

"Thank you, Doctor Chen."

After walking out of the villa, Zhou Yang also thanked Chen Yang.

"Dr. Zhou is too polite." Chen Yang said with a smile: "Actually, it's just two more trips."

Zhou Yang smiled and said nothing more, but he kept the favor in his heart. This time Chen Yang really gave him face.

If it weren't for Chen Yang, it would be really difficult for Zhou Yang to save face in front of his old classmates this time.
