Practicing business and practicing medicine

Chapter 7 Fighting Fire with Fire



While studying in college, a Western medical proverb left a deep impression on Bian Mu's mind: "Occasionally it cures, often it helps, and it always comforts."

The interpretation of this medical proverb naturally varies widely due to various differences in historical background, personal knowledge, and medical practice.

In Bian Mu's view, when faced with patients with difficult and complicated diseases, especially those who are critically ill, as a doctor, whether they can be completely cured is secondary. First, they should find ways to relieve the huge mental pressure on their hearts.

In a sense, as long as this is done, the patient's condition will be relieved by half.

The girl suddenly knelt down to express her gratitude just now, which was enough to prove how much mental pressure the patient's family of three had endured. Bian Mu's efforts had obviously worked.

The inflammation in the patient's foot wound was difficult to eliminate. The wound could not be cured, and pus and blood slowly overflowed. It would take some time for the girl to buy medicine. Bian Mu used two hemostatic forceps to make a thicker medicinal pad with sterilized gauze, and put it on the patient's face. With the help of his wife, the patient's right foot was placed on the wheelchair support and placed properly.

"Come! I have to feel the pulse." After saying that, Bian Mu motioned to the patient's wife to push the wheelchair to the table.

First with his left hand and then with his right hand, he gently placed the ruler on the scale, slowly and slowly, and then gradually, and he felt more confident in his heart.

"Floating as if empty, Yang Qi wanders and is difficult to gather, and the pulse is weak! The left pulse is floating but the right pulse is deep and calm. It seems that the patient's daily diet should contain special ingredients. He is really lucky! Invisibly, he is also I saved my own life." Thinking of this, Bian Mu took a medical notebook from the side and recorded the patient's peculiar pulse conditions one by one while feeling the pulse.

Compared with his peers, Bian Mu always takes a longer time to take the pulse. Through the pulse, Bian Mu can perceive a lot of special information that is rarely known to others.

For example, the patient in front of me had martial arts training experience before he was 20 years old, and it was for a long time, and there should be no interruption in the middle. In terms of the basic skill of taking pulse, no matter how smart Kuang Yiheng and others are, they may not be able to do it in this life. Can't get this far.

"Aunt! Can your family eat some unusual ingredients for three meals a day, such as wild vegetables, mountain mushrooms, wild yellow rice and the like?" Bian Mu asked with a smile.

"Does this...chervil count?"

"Are you talking about 'Phoenix Phytolacca'?" As he spoke, Bian Mu picked up his phone, pulled out a few pictures from the database and showed them to the patient's wife.

"Yes! This is the thing. The red root ones are poisonous and cannot be eaten. We usually use chervil to make soup and the radish seedlings are eaten as vegetables. What? Can't we eat this thing often?" the patient's wife asked doubtfully.

"On the contrary, thank you for treating it as a home-cooked dish, otherwise, uncle might have to have his leg amputated!" Bian Mu responded with a smile.

Hearing this, the patient and his wife couldn't help but look happy, their eyes filled with endless yearning for new life. That eager expectation immediately moved Bian Mu, and a long-lost sense of accomplishment arose spontaneously.

Bian Mu was deeply proud.

At this moment, the girl came back from buying medicine. The traditional Chinese medicine prescription listed only three kinds of traditional Chinese medicine, D. sanguinea, Xianxianghua, and Lithospermum. The total including the processing fee was only 31.75 yuan.

"Well! The leaf elephant flower is quite fresh, not bad, not bad! Let's give the uncle some medicine first. Since it took a long time, in order to get the effect quickly, I will have to open the wound a little later to drain the fresh blood outward. In this way, the blood root powder can be easily integrated with it. It may be very painful. With your current physical condition, it is not suitable for anesthesia. You have to endure it!" After that, Bian Mu opened another disinfection bag and put it on. A pair of sterile surgical gloves ready to apply medication.

Bian Mu's technique was very skillful and he finished treating the wound in a short time.

The patient, Mr. Ge, looked normal and did not feel much pain.

"I don't usually have many patients here. You two might as well sit there and rest for a while. It will take a while for the medicine to take effect!" After inviting the mother and daughter to sit down, Bian Mu began to prepare the medicine.

According to the doctor's instructions, the Elephant Leaf has been ground into a slurry at the pharmacy and placed in a small plastic medicine bottle. The Lithospermum has also been ground into powder, wrapped into a small medicine bag and placed next to it.

Bian Mu called the girl and explained a few words while preparing the medicine.

"This medicine is called 'Ye Xiang Hua'. It is poisonous. Do not take it orally. You must also follow the doctor's advice for external use. Lithospermum powder can eliminate most of the toxicity of 'Ye Xiang Hua'. To take care of my father's condition, the ratio of the two can be controlled at 1:3. , comfrey powder is 1, and leaf elephant flower is 3. It doesn’t need to be too precise. It should be roughly the same. I will prepare the medicine for you later. If it is inconvenient to come to the hospital to change the medicine in the future, you can follow this method. Your father prepares and changes medicines."

"We'd better come to the hospital to change the dressing! My father is in critical condition, and I don't dare to take action. I can't afford it if something goes wrong!" The girl responded quickly.

"That's fine! Anyway, I usually don't have many patients here. I work all day from Monday to Friday. You can come and change the dressing at any time during working hours." As he spoke, Bian Mu had already prepared the antidote.

It will take some time for the blood root powder to dry. Anyway, no other patients were seen registering for consultation in the clinic, so Bian Mu accompanied Mr. Ge and his family to talk in detail about the precautions for future treatment.

"Mr. Ge practiced traditional martial arts when he was young, right?" Bian Mu asked with a smile.

"It's just a village trick, there's no way to talk about being a master of martial arts." Patient Mr. Ge responded humbly.

"Of course I have a reason for asking like this, uncle! Try your luck and punch my palm a few times later. Let's try our skills." As he spoke, Bian Mu stood up and walked to the wheelchair, holding his right palm With the palm facing outward, place the palm under the right rib.

"Is this... really a fight?" Mr. Ge asked in confusion.

"What a beating! Don't worry, you are seriously injured, your vitality has been damaged, and you are still in a wheelchair. I am so young, no matter how good your skills are, you can't hurt me." Bian Mu responded with a smile.

"Then... let me try." As he spoke, Mr. Ge's eyes were slightly stern, his eyes were focused, and he was calming down, preparing to try a few punches.

In an instant, Mr. Ge's usual melancholy temperament disappeared without a trace, and his calm and composed appearance surprised the mother and daughter who were accompanying him.

Bian Mu has been practicing for several years in Xiao Zheng Jing Ba Bai. He can use palms and airs, and is both offensive and defensive. An expert can make guesses at a glance.

Mr. Ge was obviously an expert. When he saw Bian Mu standing there, he knew that the young and handsome male doctor in front of him was no ordinary person. Since he said that he should feel free to punch, there must be a deep meaning in it. So, taking a deep breath and using his luck, Mr. Ge punched Bian Mu's right palm.

There was a sound of "Bang...", and Bian Mu slightly swayed sideways twice, and all the force on his fist was eliminated without a trace.

During this confrontation, Mr. Ge confirmed that Dr. Bian was also a practicing practitioner.

"Mr. Ge! Your foot injury has deep-rooted external evils and has not healed for a long time. Although there is no need for amputation, it is not easy to cure it, and it is even more difficult to fully recover. It is thanks to your skill that you can release the energy in your body. Come out, future treatment will be more effective with half the effort." Bian Mu explained a few words with a smile.

"Really? Dr. Bian is so smart. I have chosen my life in vain! Our whole family will never forget your great kindness!" As he spoke, Mr. Ge seemed a little excited.

"That's serious! After applying 'Ye Xiang Hua' to the wound, we are taking the approach of fighting poison with poison. You may have an accompanying high fever. When you are recuperating at home, as long as you feel uncomfortable, you can either sit or stand and concentrate. Gather qi, just like before, raise the qi in the Dantian, and slowly spread the qi around the body with fists until the fever subsides. Of course, at that time, it is best for your family to accompany you. In case of an emergency, Just call 120 and come to our hospital for follow-up consultation as soon as possible. Don’t worry, the probability of this happening is extremely low.”

After hearing this, Mr. Ge's family of three felt completely at ease.
