Chapter 718: One injection, immediate effect
In fact, the young man's situation is not complicated, and Mo Xinzhi next to him can see it clearly. However, Li Haofei is young after all. At the age of twenty-five or twenty-six, he can reach this level, which is really amazing.
Even Mo Xinzhi rarely sees such an outstanding young doctor.
"Doctor, you are amazing."
The young people's expressions became much more serious and they used honorifics when addressing others.
"I have had a sore throat for several days. It hurts even when I eat. I have been taking medicine for a few days but it has not been effective."
The young man asked, "You can tell just by feeling my pulse?"
"Your pulse is obviously double pulse rushing upwards, fire is called flaming up." Li Haofei said with a smile: "It's clear at a glance."
As he spoke, Li Haofei took out a needle bag from the side and took out a three-silver needle from it.
"I'll give you an injection and I guarantee you'll be well soon." Li Haofei said with a smile.
"Right away?"
The young man smiled and said, "Doctor, don't lie to me."
Li Haofei looks only one or two years older than the young man, and the young man really doesn't believe that Li Haofei has this level.
Li Haofei didn't explain, but smiled and said, "Give me your hand."
The young man stretched out his hand, and Li Haofei used a silver needle to prick the Shaoshang point on the young man's thumb, then squeezed it hard, squeezing out several drops of blood the size of millet grains.
Li Haofei waited until the blood turned bright red and clear before asking, "How do you feel now?"
"what."
The young man suddenly exclaimed in surprise, and said in disbelief, "I really feel much better."
The young man felt uncomfortable in his throat just now, and when he swallowed his saliva, he clearly felt that something was stuck there. To use an idiom, it was like a lump in the throat.
But at this moment, the young man felt as if someone had helped him remove the blockage in his throat, and swallowing saliva was obviously not so uncomfortable anymore.
"Is this true?" Someone nearby said in disbelief.
"Auntie, would I lie to you?"
The young man said: "Really, I really feel much better, it's amazing."
As he spoke, the young man looked at the place on his thumb where Li Haofei had inserted the needle just now, puzzled: "This is really strange, I clearly have a sore throat, why does the needle in this place have an effect?"
If Li Haofei had stabbed him somewhere in the throat just now, although the young man also didn't understand the principle, he still felt that he could understand it. After all, they were close, right?
But the throat and thumb?
To the young man, this seems completely unrelated, so why can it have such an immediate effect?
The young man felt that this could not be explained by science.
"Doctor, what's the principle behind this?" the young man asked in confusion.
"This Shaoshang acupoint is the last acupoint of the lung meridian of the human body and belongs to the hand Taiyin lung meridian."
Li Haofei explained with a smile: "Our throat is the gateway to the lungs. When the lungs are hot, it is like the gateway is on fire, which will naturally cause sore throat. Shaoshang acupoint is like a small exit on the large channel of the lung meridian. By acupuncture and bloodletting here, the stagnant heat in the lung meridian can be vented, just like opening a window in a stuffy house, giving the heat a place to escape, and the sore throat will naturally be relieved."
Some people watching on the sidelines suddenly understood what was said. Although they didn't understand it very well, after hearing what Li Haofei said, they felt as if they understood something.
An old man asked loudly: "Doctor, why do you have to prick the Shaoshang acupoint? There are so many acupuncture points on our hands, why does this one have this effect?"
Li Haofei continued patiently, "Uncle, Shaoshang acupoint belongs to the element of wood in the five elements, and has a strong effect of dredging, unblocking, and opening. Moreover, it is located at the end of the finger, where the blood circulation is relatively weak, just like the end of a river. Once there is a blockage here, it is easy to cause various discomforts. Stimulating Shaoshang acupoint is like clearing the blockage at the end of the river, allowing the blood to flow smoothly again. Not only that, it is also related to the large intestine meridian, and the large intestine meridian and the lung meridian are interconnected. In this way, stimulating Shaoshang acupoint can achieve the effect of killing two birds with one stone, which can not only clear away lung heat, but also regulate the blood and qi of the meridians associated with it, and the therapeutic effect on diseases such as sore throat is even more significant."
"Great, we have met a master."
Some elderly people couldn't help but sigh.
Some older people really know the power of traditional Chinese medicine. Although they do not understand the theoretical basis of traditional Chinese medicine, many elderly people still remember some songs or proverbs passed down from generation to generation.
There are few good Chinese medicine practitioners nowadays, but Li Haofei's simple injection really made some elderly people recall some Chinese medicine practitioners they met in the past when they were backward and poor.
Liu Xi looked back at Li Haofei and actually let Li Haofei make the first move.
When it comes to "showing off the mountain gate", for Li Haofei and Liu Xi, it depends on the timing. They have to be confident and meet the right patients before they can show their prowess in front of others.
Especially for a treatment as effective as Li Haofei's, it is not something that can be applied to every patient.
"Doctor, do I still need to take medicine for my illness?" the young man asked Li Haofei.
Li Haofei smiled and replied, "Your condition is mainly caused by the recent heat in your body, and possibly irregular diet or work and rest. After you go back, you should pay attention to eating a lighter diet, eat less spicy and greasy food, drink more water, and get enough sleep. You can also massage the Shaoshang acupoint more often to play a preventive and health-care role. As long as you develop good living habits and take appropriate measures, the possibility of recurrence will be much smaller."
Li Haofei wrote a prescription: "I'll prescribe you three more doses of medicine. You go back and take them for three days to consolidate the effect and clear the remaining heat."
Chen Yang watched from a distance, smiled and nodded.
Traditional Chinese medicine treatment is one aspect, and popular science is another aspect. While improving the level of traditional Chinese medicine practitioners themselves, traditional Chinese medicine also needs to enhance the public's understanding of traditional Chinese medicine. Only by allowing more people to understand traditional Chinese medicine can traditional Chinese medicine avoid being misunderstood by some people.
Traditional Chinese medicine is currently in decline. Apart from the problem of the level of traditional Chinese medicine practitioners themselves, there is also the public’s lack of understanding of traditional Chinese medicine. It is precisely because of this lack of understanding that various misunderstandings are easily generated.
Li Haofei was brought up by Chen Yang. Although Chen Yang left Jialin County later, Li Haofei's rapid growth was due to his own efforts on the one hand and the help given to Li Haofei by Chen Yang on the other.
But at first, Li Haofei learned from Chen Yang, so Li Haofei also learned Chen Yang's habits. He was willing to patiently explain to the patients, explain the reasons, and even make some metaphors to make the situation as clear as possible to the patients, which is very good.
"How about it?"
Mo Xinzhi asked his son softly.
"Not bad, very good, with a solid foundation."
Mo Taihong said softly: "It can be seen that he should be a descendant of a famous family. I just don't know which famous doctor in Shanzhou Province he is the apprentice or descendant of."
Obviously, Mo Xinzhi and his son had some misunderstanding. They thought that Li Haofei had been exposed to traditional Chinese medicine since he was a child and must be the descendant of a famous master.
