Great Chinese Doctor

Chapter 138 Doctor Wang?

"Heat and toxins accumulate inside, and moisture gathers on the surface. The local skin is red, swollen, hot and painful. The rash is red and itchy, and the surface is covered with a layer of silvery-white scales. The body is hot and cold, and you feel depressed and thirsty. You can't sleep at night, accompanied by constipation and small urine volume... Your disease will develop into nephritis from psoriasis in a while."

“Psoriasis, is it serious?”

The man gasped and asked quickly.

He just knew that he felt unwell, so he went to the hospital for a check-up, but all they found was that he had excessive heat and toxins in his body. He took a lot of Western medicine, but ended up suffering from insomnia and constipation, and was in great pain.

There are two reasons why he came today, one is to see a doctor, and the other is to get the Yangshen Pill.

So he never thought that he could really get sick, and it was a disease that he had never heard of.

"Psoriasis is a term in traditional Chinese medicine. It also has a Western medical name you should know, which is psoriasis. This type of psoriasis is a chronic skin disease with unknown etiology and easy recurrence. Although there are few cases of secondary nephritis, it does not mean that there are none, and yours just meets all the conditions."

"The cause of psoriasis may be related to autoimmune impairment, which belongs to the category of 'psoriasis' in medicine. It is believed that wind-heat is the main cause of the disease. If patients suffer from psoriasis for a long time, the wind-heat evil will gather on the surface of the skin, which will cause the circulation of qi and blood to be blocked. If the stagnation lasts for a long time, the blood will be hot. If the dampness and poison are external, the heat and poison in the blood will spread to the blood and disturb the liver, which will cause this disease."

"As stated in Lei Zheng Zhi Cai: All the essence of the liver is transferred to the kidney, and it is constantly moving in the fire. When the fire moves, the kidney's storage is not solid. This means that the dampness and toxins are disturbing the body, the blood is boiling, the kidneys are affected, and the kidneys are stored and drained, so the urine test is abnormal. The kidney governs water, and the regulation of qi and transformation is not functioning properly, so the eyelids and bare feet are swollen. The waist is the external organ of the kidney, and the kidney meridian is damaged, so the waist is sore and heavy."

Although he understood, the man still asked anxiously, "How to treat it? Is it enough to just take medicine, or do I need acupuncture, or something else?"

"Don't worry."

Qin Qing also comforted him, "Fortunately you came early. Although you took some random medicines that put a little strain on your body, I can prescribe some medicine for you, and you will be able to get rid of this trouble soon."

She pulled out an A4 paper from the drawer and quickly wrote a prescription on it: "First, diagnose and treat heat toxins, promote diuresis and dissipate blood stasis, use honeysuckle, ground cloves, phellodendron, beehive, centipede, belly peel, wax gourd peel, oriental water chestnut, tuckahoe peel, chuan magnolia bark, angelica, red peony root, chuan army, pangolin, white smilax, etc. - this medicine needs to be decocted in water, and a total of 12 doses should be taken."

She drew a dividing line at the bottom and said, "The following is the second visit, which is also a follow-up visit. If you have time, I can make a conclusion based on the situation at that time."

"Of course, as long as the edema is basically gone, the bowel movements are smooth, the local scales are reduced, and the itching is reduced during the second visit, then the treatment will be to clear away heat and detoxify, and to invigorate qi and activate blood circulation."

"It needs to be used with honeysuckle, ground cactus, dandelion, wild chrysanthemum, beehive, phellodendron, isatis root, cicada shell, raw earth, red peony root, white fresh bark, wild yam, centipede, raw astragalus, fried malt, etc., decocted in water and taken for 15 consecutive doses."

"After that, you should start to slowly recuperate to consolidate the therapeutic effect and avoid recurrence of the disease. You can appropriately increase some foods that are beneficial to the body, such as fresh vegetables, fruits, whole grains, etc. At the same time, maintain good work and rest habits, avoid staying up late and overwork. In addition, proper physical exercise and strengthening the physical fitness can also help improve the body's resistance.

If you feel any discomfort during the treatment, please contact me immediately. I will adjust the treatment plan in time according to your condition. At the same time, you should maintain a positive and optimistic attitude and believe that you will be able to overcome the disease and recover your health.

Finally, I would like to emphasize again that the treatment of psoriasis requires a long-term process and cannot be rushed. Please be sure to follow the doctor's advice, take the medicine on time, and do not stop or change the medicine on your own. Only by persisting in treatment can you achieve the best effect.

Qin Qing also finished writing and handed the prescription to the man. "Are you going to buy the medicine here in our clinic or go to another clinic? Don't worry, the quality of the medicine in our clinic is guaranteed. It will not affect the efficacy of the medicine, and there is no such thing as fake medicine."

"Of course, you can buy it at other clinics. In addition, this prescription is specially prescribed by me based on your personal situation. Remember not to change the prescription at will. Otherwise, the effect of the medicine may be small, but if the effects of the medicine conflict, it will be a big deal."

The man said, "Doctor Qin, I trust you. Please prescribe some medicine for me. Otherwise, I will have to go out and find a Chinese medicine clinic, which is a waste of time."

Qin Qing nodded slightly, stood up, and walked steadily towards the medicine cabinet. She said "OK" lightly, and began to carefully select the herbs.

Her operation was very fast. She almost took it out as soon as she put it in. The key point was that the weight of each medicinal ingredient was controlled just right, which showed how precise her skill was.

"Take it back and drink it according to the instructions given to you."

The man picked up the waterproof and oil-proof paper bag containing the medicine, paid the money and left.

Qin Qing also sat back in front of the examination table and looked at the woman opposite him. "Are you feeling unwell? Let me take your pulse first."

She placed her finger on the pulse and checked it carefully. After a moment, she said, "You have irregular menstruation and premenstrual tension syndrome. Do you feel shortness of breath, chest tightness, backache, leg weakness, and even vomiting every time before your period?"

The woman nodded slightly, with a look of pain in her eyes, "Yes, Dr. Qin, I have this every time before my period, and it has been like this for a while. It makes me very painful. What should I do?"

Qin Qing retracted her fingers, smiled slightly, and comforted her, "Don't worry, this is a manifestation of irregular menstruation. I'll prescribe some medicine for you. If you take good care of yourself, you will see improvement soon."

She picked up a pen and quickly wrote down the prescription on the paper. "This is three doses of medicine, one dose per day, decocted and taken. Come back after your period is over. I will adjust the prescription according to your condition."

The woman took the prescription, her eyes sparkling with gratitude, "Thank you, Dr. Qin, I will. Um, take my medicine here too!"

After Qin Qing prescribed medicine for her, it was the third person's turn.

This is an old man who is in his fifties and looks energetic. He sat down on a chair and put his wrist on the pulse pillow. "Doctor Qin, please help me see what's wrong with me?"

Qin Qing also raised his eyebrows and looked at him. A hint of dark light flashed in his eyes. He didn't have time to think too much. He took his pulse with his fingers, and after a moment he took it back and said, "Hmm! There is paroxysmal colic when pressing on the right upper abdomen, which radiates to the right shoulder. You are also afraid of colds and fever, and have night sweats... If I'm not wrong, your disease is about to develop into gallstones."

"Hmm? Gallstones? I can't——"

The old man took the patient's pulse reflexively. He took the patient's pulse for a long time, over and over again, but there was no answer.

"Little girl, how did you figure that out? Why can't I feel it?
