[Football] In the name of the team doctor

Lin Wei lives next to the National Technology Center, where most of the staff lives except for the coaching team and medical team of the French senior team.

During the day, he would treat Varane in the medical room, and all the supplies including acupuncture and electroacupuncture instruments were brought from Spain by himself.

Lin Wei never thought that he would be recognized by the medical team of the French team. After all, the arrogance of the French is well-known all over the world.He came here only to complete the treatment of Varane, and then retired, and he even booked the plane ticket back to China.

But what he didn't expect was that just the day before he was about to leave Clairefontaine, the French team even offered him an olive branch.

For the team doctors of the French national team, acupuncture and moxibustion is not a particularly rare treatment. In fact, although European and American countries have ambiguous attitudes towards traditional Chinese medicine in recent years, they have consistently affirmed the therapeutic effect of acupuncture and moxibustion.

What really amazed them was the flying needle technique in which the needle tip did not touch the skin at all.His hands were born very beautifully, with slender fingers and well-defined joints. The thumb is pulled back, and the index and middle fingers are pushed forward. When the wrist is stretched out, the hand looks like a bird flying high.

The moment when the thin needle was pierced into the acupoint with the strength of the wrist and rotated through the air, it was very visually impactful, combining rigidity and softness, but also very freehand. The old expert who had served the French team for decades was stunned. Several rehabilitation physiotherapists were even more amazed.

Lin Wei has never been stingy about introducing the traditional medicine of the motherland that he is good at to his colleagues.The origin, development, inheritance, representative figures of the flying needle method, and then to the origin and wide spread area of ​​the whole "Lingnan flying needle" school...

Like those "missionaries" who traveled thousands of miles from Europe to China during the Ming and Qing Dynasties, he brought the treasures of his own country to another land across mountains and seas, and publicized them when he had the opportunity.

He is a pure Western medical student who was born in a family of Chinese medicine. He has heard and seen too many mutual derogation and abuse between the two. Western medicine scolds Chinese medicine for pseudoscience, and Chinese medicine scolds Western medicine for treating the symptoms but not the root cause...

In fact, those who have studied and researched the two to a certain depth will understand that the relationship between traditional medicine and modern medicine is not mutually opposed and mutually exclusive, but should be a relationship of learning from each other and cooperating with each other.

Compared with those old-fashioned university professors, Lin Wei's explanations are not so academic and rigorous, just like telling a story, and occasionally put on suspense to whet the audience's appetite. It is very fascinating, and several physical therapists The teacher still has more to say, so I made an appointment to talk about something else tomorrow.

It only took one morning, and he was praised by the chief doctor of the French national team. Several young physiotherapists also liked him very much, and often discussed with him some related topics about physical therapy and manual therapy.

Dr. Kobayashi is well versed in both Chinese and Western cultures. As long as he is within his professional scope, he has more or less dabbled in even very unpopular knowledge and books. His undergraduate degree is clinical, and he has excellent grades. Can chat for a while.

After a few days of getting along, not only the medical team likes him, but also the group of young players in the French team who are known by the media to be flamboyant and not very obedient to discipline.

Since coming to France, Lin Wei has received a call from someone every night.On the first day, the president was more restrained and concerned about how he felt in Clairefontaine and whether he was used to it.I also set up an fg for him, saying that he has excellent medical skills and is a nice person, and he will not be valued by Deschamps, so he will stay in the French team from now on.

Lin Wei smiled and asked him, "It sounds like you don't really want to see me again next season."

"How? I wish I could see you every day."

The next day, the president told Lin Wei that his good friend Coentran was unable to participate in the European Cup due to injury, and was very frustrated: "You can go to Paris with Rahael, why can't you come to Lisbon with me?"

"Because Rahael needs my help."

Later, the president mentioned the two bookmarks to him: "In Stagra's comments, some fans said that the poem is about the love between two men. Is it true?"

"The two men are right." Lin Wei leaned against the window, looking at the oak forest in the distance, "Love is not guaranteed."

"What is not love?"

"Maybe it's admiration for the monarch?"

"Also say it's not love."

"..."

Every evening, a few players gather in the medical room to watch game tape and get a relaxing massage.Varane is still in the treatment stage, and Lin Wei has been in charge of his massage all the time.

Every time he presses the acupuncture points, Varane can't help but let out some daydream moans, so the people next to him will look at the show, and then notice Lin Wei's unusual massage techniques and only I have heard of "acupuncture" in Kung Fu movies.

Two of the most curious babies are Griezmann and Pogba.Xiaoge has been acquainted with Lin Wei since the first day, and even invited him to stay and fight with them in the European Cup.

Lin Wei did not expect Pogba's enthusiasm and openness.In his impression, this midfielder from Juventus is worth more than [-] million euros. He is currently the hottest and powerful little demon in world football, and he is also the most expensive player in the French team.

This black guy with a height of 192 centimeters and looks even a little "fierce" is very humble and polite in life. He likes music, dancing and changing hairstyles, and invents and creates some games that make Deschamps very popular with his teammates.

There is a ping-pong table in the big castle. Maybe they got tired of the conventional way of playing alone, but a few guys invented a way of running around the table while catching the ball. Who didn’t catch the ball? Who will be punished.

Griezmann only loves to play games, not table tennis, so he didn't participate, and because of this, he escaped the wrath of Didier Deschamps.

Pogba was not so lucky, as he sprained his ankle when he went flying around the table to catch the ball.

The battle is imminent, but the main midfielder sprained his ankle?Deschamps' fury can be imagined, everyone who participated in this dangerous sport was scolded by him all over the place, and all the big men who are all-powerful on the field stood in a row of dingy and low faces when they were scolded. head on.

Under the arrangement of the medical team, Pogba quickly took an MRI film. The strange thing is that the film showed that there were no problems with his bones, muscles, ligaments and fascia, but Pogba himself said that his ankle was very painful. It hurts to walk, let alone run or train.

This made Deschamps very anxious. As the hosts, they will play the opening game against Romania in two days, at the Stade de France.

French President François Hollande will also be present at that time, and they can only win but not lose at home.Deschamps, of course, hopes to present the most perfect lineup in the team for the opening game. After so many days of technical and tactical drills, Pogba actually has a situation at this time?

The cause of the pain could not be found, the medical team was helpless, and the entire coaching staff, especially Deschamps himself, was devastated.

Although the French Football Association did not announce Pogba's injury, news of his injury spread like wildfire.No one knew the truth of the matter. The media had a lot of imagination about his injury, and the matter became more and more confusing. It was even speculated that the German Chamber of Commerce would give up and recruit another midfielder to the national team.

At such a critical moment, the team doctor thought of Lin Wei who was about to leave Clairefontaine the next day.

Varane's muscle strain has healed, Lin Wei was not at ease, and observed his recovery training for two days, and decided to leave after confirming that there was no problem.

He was going to leave for downtown Paris in the afternoon, prepare some small gifts for his family, and fly back home tomorrow night.

When the team doctor found him, Lin Wei had just packed his things, and agreed readily when he heard the other party's intention.After all, he is solving problems for his home team, so why not do it.

But he had to make it clear with Deschamps in advance that it is okay to help, but it may not be curable.

Deschamps has no other choice now. Since the medical director strongly recommends it, he can only be a dead horse as a living horse doctor. Let Lin Wei take a look first.

Lin Wei stared intently at the MRI film for a long time, which made Pogba a little impatient.He is young and energetic, and he is not a young man who can hold his breath, and his psychological quality is very unstable.

After being injured, he was scolded by Deschamps, and he regretted and blamed himself. He was restless all night, but now he didn't even know where he was injured, and the word "more" was added to that restlessness.

Another minute passed, and Lin Wei finally turned his head, asked the person next to him for a marker pen, and then circled a small area on the film, signaling to everyone: "Look here."

"..."

Regardless of whether they understood it or not, in short, everyone looked at a loss, because they didn't find anything unusual in the place circled by him.

The team doctor looked closer, finally frowned, and asked Lin Wei solemnly: "Could it be..."

Lin Wei nodded: "There is a little fascia incarceration in the gap formed behind the talus trochlea and the articular surface of the lateral malleolus, which is very inconspicuous and requires careful observation."

He turned around and came to the treatment bed, lifted Pogba's ankle, and helped him do passive toe extension and toe flexion. The pain was obvious during toe flexion, which confirmed his guess.

"What should I do?" Pogba asked anxiously.

The team doctor also had a hard time: "How can there be muscle incarceration without a fracture?"

Lin Wei shrugged: "I have to ask Aul (Pogba), who knows what his posture was at the moment of the sprain."

"It seems that the only option is surgery."

"That's not necessary." Lin Wei had a confident smile on his face.
