Rebirth 1977 Great Era

Chapter 746: The new official did not start the fire when he took office, but came to the pediatric department (two chapters in one)
After returning home, Fang Yan took out a cloth bag that he had prepared for his second sister. Inside the bag were the things he and his wife had prepared for her.

There was money, tickets, and a Shanghai brand watch in it.

There are also some books, including a health-preserving secret book written by Fangyan specifically for my second sister.

For example, the secret recipe for spring health care.

The core is: nourish the liver and protect yang, and follow the vitality of growth.

There is also this period of time:

Go to bed late and get up early (go to bed at 10pm and get up at 6am).

After getting up in the morning, face east and take a deep breath to absorb the Yang energy.

There are also massage points:

Massage Zusanli acupoint to strengthen the spleen, Yongquan acupoint to nourish the kidney, and Hegu acupoint to regulate qi and blood every day.

At the same time, take into account the health of foot soaking:

That is, soak your feet in warm water for 15-20 minutes every night, add mugwort or ginger to promote blood circulation.

Things like that.

These are actually all based on the "Yellow Emperor's Internal Classic".

For example, the Suwen (Suwen) states: "The third month of spring is called the beginning of the new season. Heaven and earth are both alive, and all things flourish. Sleep at night and get up early, walk around the yard, let your hair down and relax your body, so that your spirit can flourish."

"The third month of summer is called the season of abundance and beauty. The qi of heaven and earth interact, all things blossom and bear fruit. People sleep at night and get up early, never getting tired of the day."

"The third month of autumn is called Rongping. The weather is urgent and the ground is bright. Go to bed early and get up early, and wake up with the rooster."

"The three months of winter are called the closed-door period. The water is frozen and the ground is cracked. Do not disturb the sun. Go to bed early and get up late, and wait for the sun to come out."

it means:
The three months of spring are known as the season of innovation and the budding of life. All things in the world are revived and full of vitality, and all living things are thriving. People should go to bed late and get up early at this time, take a leisurely walk in the courtyard, let their hair down, relax their bodies, and let their emotions flow freely and be full of vitality with the vitality of spring.

The three months of summer are known as the season when everything is prosperous and beautiful. At this time, the yin and yang energy between heaven and earth blend with each other, and everything has blossomed and borne fruit, presenting a lush scene. People should go to bed late and get up early, not be disgusted by the long daytime, and fully adapt to the characteristics of the strong yang energy in summer.

The three months of autumn are called the season of peace. The weather becomes cold and the air becomes clear. People should go to bed early and get up early, and follow the same schedule as chickens, that is, get up when the chickens crow and go to bed after dark.

The three months of winter are the season when everything is hidden. Water will freeze and the ground will crack. At this time, do not disturb the Yang energy in the body easily. People should go to bed early and get up late, and must wait until the sun comes out before getting up to nourish the Yang energy in the body and adapt to the winter climate characteristics.

Work and rest:
In spring, “sleep late and get up early”, in summer, “sleep late and get up early”, in autumn, “sleep early and get up early”, and in winter, “sleep early and get up late”.

Diet:
Nourish the liver in spring, nourish the heart in summer, nourish the lungs in autumn, and nourish the kidneys in winter.

Emotionally:
In spring, avoid anger; in summer, avoid impatience; in autumn, avoid sadness; in winter, avoid fear.

In sports:
In spring, "walk around the courtyard", in summer, "do not get tired of the sun", in autumn, "restrain your spirit", and in winter, "do not disturb the sun".

In addition, Fangyan also prepared some prescriptions and methods for her second sister to deal with acclimatization, after all, she had never been to Shanghai.

If you are not used to the diet, habits and climate, you are likely to suffer from acclimatization.

In addition, Fangyan also gave her the address of Nantong Traditional Chinese Medicine Hospital, which is not far from Shanghai. If there are any problems, she can go directly to see Mr. Zhu.

"Second sister, this is a little gift from my husband and me." Fang Yan handed the thing in his hand to his second sister Fang Ning.

The second sister looked at the bag handed over in surprise and said:
"so much?"

Zhu Lin said:

"Not much, not much. I have compressed it as much as possible."

"It's full of stuff you might need."

"I hope you take care of yourself over there."

"You are so thoughtful." said the second sister with emotion.

Then the younger brother also presented his parting gift, which was a Hero pen.

All my previous income was given to my elder sister. Now I don’t have much money, which is all paid by the Writers Association and the Beijing Film Studio.

So buying a good fountain pen is basically the best thing he can get at the moment.

Of course, this fountain pen is still a relatively valuable gift in this era.

It just seemed a bit shabby compared to the big bag of things that Fangyan and the others had.

But it's all thoughtful.

The second sister still accepted it with a smile, and said to the younger brother:

"Then you should work harder in the future! Write good works!"

After hearing this, the younger brother nodded vigorously and said:
"Of course, I'm almost halfway through writing this book. When you've been in Shanghai for a month or two, you should be able to buy my book on the street."

The second sister saw the little brother being so arrogant and said with a smile:

"Ha...I told you you're fat and you're still panting!"

After saying that, he punched him directly.

"Ouch!" The little brother jumped to the side with his arms folded, causing everyone in the room to burst into laughter.

After a while, the younger brother asked:

"By the way, when does my second sister's train leave tomorrow?"

The second sister said:

"Tomorrow afternoon at 2:30."

"If nothing unexpected happens on the way, we should be able to reach Wuwei within 30 hours."

The younger brother said:

"That's still quite a long time..."

The second sister smiled and said:

"It's a cadre berth. It's okay."

The younger brother said:

"Even if it's from there to Shanghai, it'll probably take even longer."

Fangyan took over the conversation and said:

"I asked the station and they said the regular train would take about 40 hours, while the direct train would take 29 hours."

The younger brother said:

"Then it will be hard to get from Gansu to Shanghai."

The second sister waved her hand and said nonchalantly:
"It doesn't matter. I'm not some spoiled little girl. It's not like I haven't taken a train for dozens of hours before."

"It's much more comfortable than going to the ground. I can also read a book or something in the car."

"There should be other college students on the road. Anyway, don't think too much of it. It's not a big problem."

My second sister's attitude made the family feel a lot more at ease.

After all, the most important thing is to have a good attitude.

After that, Fangyan didn't read his book anymore. Instead, he stayed in the main hall with his second sister and his family to watch a movie on TV all night.

Time quickly came to the second day.

Early in the morning, my mother, elder sister and Zhu Lin were busy in the kitchen.

My second sister is leaving today, so the whole family started making dumplings by hand early in the morning.

Later, my second sister got up and joined in.

This is a very common custom here. Before traveling, everyone makes dumplings together and then sits around to eat them, symbolizing reunion.

Even if you are about to separate, you can still feel the warmth and affection of your family before departure, leaving good memories for your family members and those who are leaving, and deepening the affection between family members.

After breakfast in the morning, the lunch is the main meal.

After eating, my second sister will go to suffer.

So for lunch, Fangyan planned to come back early to cook.

But this is just today's plan, and it depends on whether everything goes well in the hospital.

After all, there are still many people coming to see the doctor these days.

After breakfast early in the morning, Fangyan went to work.

Generally speaking, a new official has to make three big moves when he takes office.

This saying has existed for a long time and its origin is related to historical allusions.

It is also well known to everyone that during the Three Kingdoms period, Zhuge Liang served as Liu Bei's military advisor and launched fire attacks on Cao Cao three times in a short period of time.

The first fire was at Bowangpo, the second was at Xinye, and the third was at Chibi.

At that time, people called these three fires "the three fires that Zhuge Liang started when he took office."

Later on, it became the commonly said "a new official starts with three things".

It is used to illustrate that newly appointed cadres should have a new look and new achievements, and should first come up with measures and actions to establish their prestige and break new ground.

This also means that new leaders need to take some decisive measures or actions in the initial stage to demonstrate their ability and determination and attract people's attention and recognition.

Once the “three fires” are burned out, this leader will basically have taken root here.

But the dialect is different.

Before he had even started his third fire, it had already taken root.

In fact, long before he even had the title of honorary director, he had already established his irreplaceable prestige.

In order to treat so many people, two buildings were built for Union Hospital.

We also recruited top Western medicine experts from abroad to learn about the diseases that they were unable to treat.

This has not only been recognized by overseas Chinese businessmen and patients, but also by foreign Western medicine, and has even been described as some kind of crisis.

In addition, many of the people here were brought here by him, and almost the entire department is supported by him.

Moreover, everyone has benefited from him. During the time he has been working here, not to mention anything else, the income of all the medical staff in the Department of Traditional Chinese Medicine is so high that they themselves can't believe it.

So Fangyan doesn't need to start any fire. If anyone dares to go against him, these people can burn the troublemaker with just one fire.

"So, that Qi Yong is really a piece of shit!"

"Yes! He has a corrupt character and is simply a scum!"

"If it were me, this guy should be punished."

After Fang Yan sent his wife to the department, he went to the inpatient building.

At this moment, Yang Jingxiang was chatting about yesterday's gossip with Zhang Yanchang, Fan Changting and Peng Bo.

After hearing yesterday's story, several people were filled with indignation.

When they saw Fangyan coming, Yang Jingxiang and the others hurried to greet Fangyan.

Then Bloomberg came up and asked Fang Yan:

"Brother Fang, when are you going to go see the senior? I'll go and show my support."

"What old senior?" The dialect was incomprehensible.

"Brother Fang, have you forgotten? The four great pediatric experts who are as famous as your grandfather!"

The dialect says:

"Oh, there's no rush for that. It depends on when the four of us are free. I'll make the arrangements myself then."

"I also want to join in the fun." Lao Fan said to Fangyan.

Fang Yan said to Lao Fan:

"Okay, okay, I'll definitely go with you then."

"But not today. My second sister has to leave today."

"I have to go see her off."

Lao Fan nodded:
"This is natural."

Then Fangyan invited them to go to the ward for rounds. The first person to do the rounds was of course President Li. He was getting better and better now. His family's big wave Huang Anli had recovered directly now. The retrograde menstruation was gone and she was alive and kicking again.

Then after checking all the way, we found that everyone was moving in a good direction.

The last one, Fangyan found out about my eldest cousin’s ward. Yesterday I heard that he went home and dug deep into the ground.

Fangyan is looking forward to him presenting his results now.

In fact, Fangyan was not disappointed and he actually found two books.

They are not medical records, but the thirty books of annotations used to provide medical enlightenment to future generations.

Considering that the old man liked to bury Easter eggs in it, Fangyan didn't hesitate at all and paid the money directly.

Pay the money in one hand and deliver the goods in one hand.

After receiving two hundred US dollars, my cousin and his wife became very excited.

This business is really doable.

I just went back and worked hard for a few hours, and I got several months' salary from others.

Is there any better job than this?

Then the tongue said to them:
"If you have more at home in the future, just keep giving it to me."

The eldest cousin nodded and said:

"Of course, of course. Don't worry about that. I will never let any of the books fall into the hands of other people."

"I searched through boxes and drawers for several hours yesterday to find these two books."

"My waist is almost broken from fatigue."

Fangyan thought of Chen Lie in their family and knew that he was not lying.

Just moving all that stuff around was a chore.

But Fang Yan still smiled and reminded him:

"I suggest you look in the attic beams and the cracks in the floor and walls. There might be treasures hidden there."

Hearing Fangyan's suggestion, the cousin's eyes lit up, nodded and said:
"Okay, I'll look for it this afternoon."

"Then you have worked hard." Fangyan replied to his cousin.

"It's my duty, it's my duty." The cousin shook the money in his hand and felt full of strength again.

Next, Fangyan checked on their child's condition again. Now the child's various symptoms are subsiding and have returned to normal. Fangyan asked them to stay in the hospital for another day. If everything goes well, they can be discharged tomorrow.

My cousin and his family expressed their gratitude for the dialect again and again.

Fangyan's method of treating illnesses is truly perfect. Their child's condition improves every hour and it is visibly recovering to normal very quickly.

After Fangyan left, the eldest cousin said to his wife:

"My brother's medical skills are incredible. No wonder he can earn so much US dollars from overseas Chinese businessmen."

His wife said:

"Oh, if I had known this book was so valuable, I shouldn't have let my dad give it away."

"I calculated that he gave away quite a few books."

“It hurts me to think about it now.”

"Me too..." The cousin rubbed his sore arm. If it weren't for this guy Qi Yong, would he be so busy now?

His wife said:

"The main reason is that Qi Yong is such a jerk. He bribed our dad with a few small favors."

The eldest cousin sighed, shook his sore arms and said:
"Now I have no choice but to search the house over and over again. Yesterday I searched through all the boxes and cabinets in the house. If I still want to find it, I can only look for it in the beams, roof, floor tiles and wall cracks."

……

On the other side, Fangyan took the book and opened it to take a look inside.

After confirming its integrity, he temporarily put the book inside his coat.

Then I took the person to the outpatient clinic.

You need to read grandpa's book slowly. There are some prescriptions that cannot be blessed, and you can only find the clues in them by reading carefully.

When he wrote the book, he put a lot of thought into it.

I don't know why he enjoys doing this so much.

Around 9:30 in the morning, the patient finally arrived.

I don’t know if the dean knew that I had received my grandfather He Xiu’s medical records.

Anyway, there are quite a lot of people visiting the pediatric department today, and the first patient is a little girl.

I am 7 years old this year and my last name is Na.

Five days ago, I sprained my left ankle while jumping rope, and it was a little swollen and painful. After wiping it with medicinal wine soaked by my grandfather at home, it got slightly better, but I started to have a fever that night.

On the morning of the second day, in addition to swelling and pain in both ankle joints, both wrist joints and lumbar sacral area also began to swell and ache.

The parents took the child to the emergency department of the hospital for testing and the blood sedimentation rate was 32mm/1h.

Therefore, the diagnosis was acute rheumatoid arthritis.

By 7 o'clock that evening, the pain became more severe and developed rapidly, and I started receiving intravenous drips in the hospital.

At the same time, the parents turned to the dean for help.

I want to find a dialect.

I lost a few days but there was no improvement. Today, I finally got it.

When Fangyan saw the child, the little girl had a painful expression, her brows were furrowed, and her face looked unhealthy.

There was swelling in both external joints, both ankle joints, and lumbar sacral region.

And Fangyan touched the child lightly, causing him to cry out in pain.

The movement of these joints of her whole body is restricted.

And accompanied by a low fever, Fangyan felt her pulse and found it was slippery and rapid.

Ask the little girl to open her mouth and see her tongue.

The little girl was in great pain, unresponsive and unable to communicate.

In this situation, the dialect cannot be forced, and we can only start dialectical analysis based on the current known situation.

Based on the current actual situation, it should be after strenuous exercise that the heat in the body becomes vigorous, as if the blood is boiling. When the body sweats, it is attacked by wind evil. The wind and heat evil in the body encourage and incite each other, wandering between the joints, hindering and blocking the normal operation of the blood, thus forming the disease of heat arthralgia.

In traditional Chinese medicine theory, heat arthralgia is a limb arthralgia disease characterized by redness, swelling, heat and pain in the joints, caused by internal accumulation of wind, cold and dampness that turns into heat, or by direct invasion of rheumatic heat into the meridians and joints, leading to obstruction of qi and blood.

The key points for diagnosis of heat bi are sudden onset, redness, swelling, heat and pain in the joints, fever, and slippery and rapid pulse.

On the surface, the girl's current condition was caused by a sprained ankle while skipping rope, but in fact, it was because jumping activities accelerated the circulation of Qi and blood, and the Yang Qi became hyperactive, causing sweat to leak out of the body. At this time, the skin's pores (the texture of the skin and muscles and the tissue between the skin and muscles) lost their normal sealing function, and the wind evil took advantage of this weak opportunity to invade the body, and along with the moisture discharged from the sweat, it also entered.

Wind evil and dampness interact with the original yang heat evil in the body, forming a situation where the three evils of wind, dampness and heat are combined together. They block the blood vessels, thus leading to the disease of heat arthralgia.

Wang Kentang said: "Pain is caused by fire, swelling is caused by dampness, and it is caused by wind and cold."

It means: the symptoms of pain are caused by the presence of fire evil in the body, and the symptoms of swelling are caused by the presence of damp evil in the body. This disease is caused by the invasion of both wind evil and cold evil at the same time.

Zhang Jingyue said: "Bi means blockage, which is caused by the blockage of blood and qi by evil, and the inability to circulate freely leads to illness."

This means that the so-called "bi" is obstruction. This is because the body's qi and blood are blocked by pathogenic factors and cannot flow smoothly, thus causing the disease.

Therefore, treatment requires the use of medicines that can clear away heat and wind, and promote blood circulation and unblock collaterals.

But the child is only 7 years old. It is impossible to treat him with the same medication as for adults or just use any traditional Chinese medicine.

Moreover, it has been 5 days since the little girl fell ill, and she has also received treatment in other hospitals. Her body is now very weak. She has not recovered after 5 days of infusion and has repeated fever. Her qi and blood have been depleted.

Although the pathogenesis of "heat arthralgia" in children and adults is similar (damp-heat blocking the meridians), there are significant differences in treatment methods and precautions due to different physical constitutions, physiological characteristics and drug tolerance. Therefore, it is necessary to be particularly cautious when prescribing medication.

It is necessary to choose herbs with milder medicinal properties to avoid those that are too bitter and cold and may damage the spleen and stomach.

For example, Phellodendron chinense, Gentiana scabra, Gypsum, etc. are too cold and will damage the spleen and stomach, so these medicines must not be used.

Things like Baihu Jia Guizhi Decoction and Simiao Pills are directly excluded.

In addition, avoid using bitter and cold medicines such as gentian and rhubarb to prevent diarrhea and poor appetite;
Avoid excessive sweating (such as ephedra), which can cause "excessive sweating and loss of yang" in children;
Fangyan thought about it and finally decided to rely on his grandfather's experience.

After thinking for a while, he wrote out a prescription for a child's dose.

Then, to make it easier for the apprentice to understand, he wrote down his own ideas about the prescription.

His prescription is as follows:
Forsythia suspensa 6g (clears heat and detoxifies, clears away pathogens)

Honeysuckle 6g (clears away heat and detoxifies, penetrates the surface without hurting the body)
Gentiana macrophylla 5g (removes rheumatism, clears dampness and heat, dredges meridians and relieves pain)

Red peony root 5g (cools blood, promotes blood circulation, relieves blood stasis and relieves pain)

Talc 6g (dispelling dampness and clearing heat, discharged through urination)

Honeysuckle vine 6g (clears heat and dredges meridians, better than vines that can move around the limbs)

10g raw coix seed (strengthens the spleen and eliminates dampness, protects the spleen and stomach)

Saposhnikovia 4g (to dispel wind and dampness, and prevent the invasion of external pathogens)
Danshen 5g (to activate blood circulation and nourish blood, prevent chronic diseases from entering the meridians)

3g raw licorice root (to harmonize the various medicines and protect the stomach)
Decoction method:
Take 1 dose daily, decoct in water 2 times, and take warm in 3 doses.

After the fever and swelling subside, reduce the amount of Forsythia suspensa and Talcum powder, and add 6g of Poria cocos to strengthen the spleen.

In addition, the dialect also incorporates the method of external application of traditional Chinese medicine. Although Huangbo cannot be used for internal administration, it can still be used for external application.

The external application prescription he prescribed was:

There are four herbs: 10g of Phellodendron chinense, 10g of Atractylodes lancea, 15g of Lonicera japonica vine, and 10g of Paeonia lactiflora.

Boil water to extract juice, apply cool compress to swollen and painful joints, soak gauze in the liquid, apply for 15 minutes each time, twice a day.

After Fangyan prescribed the medicine, he asked the medical staff to boil it directly, and asked them to apply it externally to the child first, and then feed her the internal medicine after it was boiled.

Then the parents were asked to take the baby away and send him to the ward for hospitalization.

In fact, Fangyan originally wanted to try He’s recipe, but this could only be done without the presence of the parents, so he had to give up.

Then the next patient came in, a little boy. When he came in, he was even more exaggerated than the girl just now.

The girl only had swollen joints, but this guy's entire body was swollen, and his eyes were so swollen that he couldn't open them at all.

The whole person appeared in a translucent state.

It gave several people in the room a fright.

Fangyan didn't even sit down, and asked the parents to carry the child to the examination table and let him lie flat on it.

Then ask the child's parents what is going on.

The parents said to the dialect:

"He had scarlet fever a month before the Chinese New Year and recovered after treatment in the hospital. But a while ago, we found that his face was swollen again, starting from the area around his eyes and gradually spreading to his entire body. At that time, we thought that something was wrong with what he ate during the Chinese New Year, so we sent him to the hospital. The Western doctor diagnosed him with something called... Oh, yes, scarlet fever followed by nephritis!"

Fangyan immediately had a bad feeling when he heard the name.

At this time, the patient's family continued:
"In Jianyang Hospital, my child was treated for about a week, but there was no improvement. The doctors at the hospital started using cardiotonic and diuretic injections. We found that the child could not urinate at all."

"For this reason, we discussed and decided to refuse their treatment. Then we contacted Union Hospital, hoping that you, Doctor Fang, could treat our child."

Fangyan narrowed his eyes. He just heard about scarlet fever. This thing is called erysipelas in traditional Chinese medicine. When erysipelas occurs on the head and face, traditional Chinese medicine calls it "Baotou Huodan". If it occurs in the lower limbs, traditional Chinese medicine calls it "Liuhuo". If it occurs in the buttocks, abdomen, limbs and other parts, traditional Chinese medicine calls it "Chiyoudan".

If erysipelas develops from the head to the whole body, it is still considered a manifestation of the progression and worsening of the "head-holding fire erysipelas" disease in the scope of traditional Chinese medicine, and is classified as a syndrome of "raging fire poison".

At this time, various organs begin to have problems, and when the disease progresses to this point, it has entered a dangerous situation.

"How many days has the child not urinated?" Fangyan asked them.

The child’s parents responded:
"A little over three days so far."

PS: The 6000-word basic chapter has been updated.

There will be more later.
