Chapter 538 You are quite capable. So you are Dean Li
Li Quan walked up to the old man and looked at the remaining silver needles and medicine.
"Do you have a complete set of silver needles? I need a six-inch long needle." The longest silver needle in the needle holder was only four inches, two inches shorter than what Li Quan wanted.
The length is not enough to achieve the effect of penetrating the acupuncture points.
"You, can you use a six-inch long needle?" Bu Jingshui asked in horror.
The layman watches the excitement, while the expert watches the details.
Having practiced acupuncture for many years, Bu Jingshui knows that acupuncture is difficult to master. For every half inch of silver needle length, the difficulty of acupuncture increases by at least twice.
He has practiced acupuncture for many years, but the best he can do is use a five-inch silver needle.
And the failure rate is quite high.
Out of responsibility to his patients, Bu Jingshui's needle bag never contained needles longer than four inches.
This is done to prevent oneself from getting itchy hands and encountering situations that require the use of a five-inch long needle, and then being unable to resist and taking the risk of acupuncture.
From this point we can also see that Bu Jingshui is a very principled person.
Perhaps it was the medical accident seven years ago that taught him a profound lesson, so he always puts himself in shackles when treating patients.
"I need a six-inch needle, so of course I can use it. If you have one, please get it quickly. It's getting late. I estimate that it will take about an hour to treat this old man."
Li Quan exuded a hint of arrogance.
What is a six-inch long needle?
With his current level of acupuncture, he can even use a seven-inch long needle.
"Jinghuo, go get a complete set of silver needles." Bu Jingshui said to Bu Jinghuo.
He was obviously a little worried and wanted to stay here to keep an eye on Li Quan.
"Wait! Let me feel the old man's pulse first to see what medicines are needed for moxibustion. You can get them all when the time comes."
As Li Quan spoke, he squatted down and put his hand on the old man's wrist.
Press three fingers on the three positions of Cun, Guan and Chi, without any error.
His movements are skillful and sophisticated, with the style of a master.
"Hey, I said, aren't you here to see a doctor?" Bu Jingshui is an orthopedic surgeon with a high level of Chinese medicine proficiency. When he saw Li Quan's skillful movements of taking the old man's pulse, he immediately realized that this young man was probably no simple man.
"Boy, did you come to our Bu's clinic on purpose to challenge us? Let me tell you, you've come to the wrong place." When Bu Jinghuo saw that Li Quan was also a doctor, he immediately became fierce.
Li Quan did not answer immediately, but frowned and concentrated on taking the old man's pulse.
The old man's condition was not complicated, it was just rheumatic inflammation of the knee joint.
Moreover, only the left leg is affected, while the right leg is in a relatively healthy condition.
This is easy to cure.
It takes an hour to treat both legs, and half an hour should be enough to treat one leg.
"Do you think that if I really want to challenge you, I can come in calmly?" Li Quan stood up slowly and looked calmly at Bu Jinghuo who rolled up his sleeves and wanted to fight.
"Jinghuo, don't be impulsive. I don't think this young man has any bad intentions. Let's see what he can do first."
Bu Jingshui should be the eldest brother, he seems much calmer.
"Can you lend me a pen and paper? I'll write down the herbs needed for acupuncture. If you don't have them here, you can only find a way to buy them outside. Or you can ask the old man to go to the hospital where I work for treatment."
Li Quan said indifferently.
"Kid, I knew you had bad intentions. I think you came to our clinic on purpose to poach patients. You look shifty, maybe you're a medical agent from some hospital. You're pretending to be so powerful and trying to trick patients here."
Bu Jinghuo was full of hostility towards Li Quan.
"Haha, if I really want to be a medical agent one day, I think I will be the best one. No matter what kind of patient, I can always get him."
Li Quan took the paper and pen handed to him by Bu Jingshui and quickly wrote down the necessary medicines.
"These drugs are very common and can be purchased at ordinary small clinics and pharmacies."
Bu Jinghuo rudely took the prescription written by Li Quan, glanced at it, and his expression eased a little.
Their clinic can get all these medicinal materials.
"Wait, I'll get the medicine for you now. I hope you won't be a coward who talks big but doesn't talk big." Bu Jinghuo had a dark face and went to the counter to get the medicine.
Soon, the silver needles and medicinal herbs that Li Quan needed were brought.
After a careful examination, Li Quan did not hesitate and began to treat the old man with acupuncture.
"Old man, I just checked your pulse and found that only your left knee joint is inflamed, and your right leg is in good condition. I am going to give you acupuncture treatment now. There may be some swelling and pain, but just bear with it."
Li Quan greeted the patient first.
"Oh, young man, you are really good. You are so right. I only have arthritis in my left leg. My right leg has always been fine." The old man gave Li Quan a thumbs up.
Just now, he saw that Li Quan was very young, and he was somewhat skeptical about Li Quan's medical skills.
But this disease had tormented him for many years, and he had tried both Western and Chinese medicine, but it had never been cured. He thought he would not live for many more years anyway, so he was willing to let Li Quan treat him.
In case the treatment fails, he can withstand the worst consequences.
Li Quan first removed the needles that Bu Jingshui had inserted one by one, and then massaged the old man's acupoints to help him massage his entire left leg.
It’s almost done, now start the acupuncture.
The first needle he took out was a six-inch long needle.
Before the two brothers Bu Jingshui and Huo could react, he had already moved as fast as lightning and pierced the old man's inner thigh with a needle.
The acupuncture point is called Jimen, which is useful in treating leg pain and genital diseases.
After one stitch, only a piece of the needle handle is left outside.
It can be said to be both accurate and precise.
This level of acupuncture skills almost made the two brothers Bu Jinghuo and Bu Jingshui's eyes pop out.
"Hey! It's amazing! My left leg really doesn't hurt as much anymore! The young doctor is really capable." The old man was very excited.
The patient's feelings are the clearest.
Because with one injection, the pain is relieved immediately.
Li Quan smiled indifferently.
Next, the needles are applied continuously.
"It's not impossible to treat arthritis by blocking it like you did. But the end result is that it can only treat the symptoms but not the root cause, which is actually contrary to the treatment principles of traditional Chinese medicine.
As doctors, when we treat patients, we should not just seek immediate good results and then gain the patients' recognition and praise.
Instead, there should be more consideration, and ultimately curing the patient should be the main principle.
This old man has had arthritis for many years, which is a chronic disease. His periosteum must be seriously affected. In addition, he is relatively old and his body functions are aging, so his recovery ability is far inferior to that of young people.
Therefore, while eliminating inflammation, we must also consider helping the elderly repair their periosteum and strengthen their muscles and bones.
Only in this way can we truly achieve a radical cure.
Otherwise, if you continue to treat the old man in the same way, his illness cycle will only get shorter and shorter, and his condition will become more and more serious."
While treating the patient and fumigating his acupuncture points, Li Quan explained the tips for treating arthritis.
"Boy, we two brothers have eaten more salt than you have eaten rice. Why are you pretending to be an old master? When I was studying medicine, you were probably still playing in the mud."
Bu Jinghuo snorted in dissatisfaction.
"Jinghuo, what he said seems to make sense. And the old man's arthritis is indeed getting shorter and shorter. We have treated many similar cases in the past, and the results are similar.
Also, his acupuncture skills are extremely high, far better than mine.
I don't even dare to touch the six-inch silver needle.
But he can hit the acupoints with every needle.
Also, the acupoints he pierced seemed to be fundamentally different from my treatment philosophy.
He can understand my treatment ideas, but I can't understand his.
We must not be arrogant or we will be like a blind man holding a candle to others, but unable to see the light ourselves. "
At this moment, Bu Jingshui changed his opinion of Li Quan.
He even began to admire Li Quan's medical skills.
"Is he, is he really that powerful?" Bu Jinghuo was still a little unconvinced.
"In medicine, those who are knowledgeable are given priority, regardless of age. Jinghuo, we have met a master, and we should learn from him with an open mind." After Bu Jingshui finished speaking, he looked at Li Quan with a respectful smile.
Only then did he realize that he didn't even know Li Quan's name.
Originally, it was almost unimaginable to let a stranger treat your patients.
Because once a medical accident occurs, who will be responsible?
The owners of the clinic, the Bu brothers, will definitely be in trouble.
As long as the patient gave his active consent, all this happened naturally.
"May I ask your name, young man?" Bu Jingshui asked respectfully.
"Li Quan!"
Li Quan was concentrating on twisting the silver needles and fumigating the patient with medicine.
There is one method among the moxibustion methods.
When fumigating the medicine, you need to constantly twist the silver needle at the acupuncture point so that the acupuncture point can better absorb the medicinal effects.
"This name sounds familiar! Doctor Li, if you don't mind, I'd like to be your assistant. I'm capable of doing the fumigation." Bu Jingshui lowered his posture and took the initiative to help Li Quan.
This also means that he is willing to be a student.
"Thank you very much!"
Li Quan handed the fumigation box to the other party, freeing up one hand. He kept twisting the silver needles with one hand, and massaged with the other hand to help the patient achieve better treatment results.
…
As the treatment was coming to an end, another patient came in.
He was helped in by someone.
Bu Jingshui is working as Li Quan's assistant, so only Bu Jinghuo can go to receive them.
"Doctor Bu, my husband was standing on the table to change a light bulb just now. He accidentally fell down and injured his right hand. Now he can't even lift it up. Please help take a look."
The woman is about forty years old.
People of this age have heavy financial burdens on their families and generally prefer to be practical.
The man was about the same age, and he was holding his right hand with his left hand, with a painful expression on his face.
Some of the residents living nearby have received treatment from the Bu brothers, and they have confidence in their medical skills.
In addition, there is no need to queue up to see a doctor at a small clinic, and the cost is much lower than that at a large hospital.
Therefore, many people like to go to small clinics to treat their illnesses.
"Mr. He, don't worry, I'll check you first." Bu Jinghuo obviously knew the middle-aged man who came for treatment.
After a physical examination, Bu Jinghuo frowned slightly.
"It feels like the elbow joint is dislocated or dislocated, and the possibility of fracture cannot be ruled out. Our clinic can do X-ray examinations, which are much cheaper than those in large hospitals, only 60 yuan per time. Do you want to do one?"
Bu Jinghuo asked.
At this moment, Li Quan had just finished treating the old man.
He was very surprised to hear that the Bu brothers' small clinic could perform X-ray examinations.
I didn’t expect that this small clinic has purchased such advanced equipment.
Bu Jinghuo took the middle-aged man into the examination room for an X-ray examination.
For fractures and joint dislocations, X-ray examination is the most commonly used examination method.
It is economical and the inspection results are particularly clear.
After Li Quan removed the needle from the old man, he said, "Old man, you can sit up now. This is only the first treatment, because your disease has been going on for a long time. If you want to cure it, you have to treat it several times. In addition, if you trust me, I can prescribe a Chinese medicine prescription for you. You can boil it and take it according to the doctor's instructions. It will also have a good therapeutic effect on your disease."
Li Quan helped the old man sit up.
At this moment, the old man tried to get out of bed and lift his legs, with a childlike smile on his face.
"Haha, young man, your treatment method is different from other doctors, and the effect is very different. My leg still hurts a little, but when I lift my leg, I feel like I am 20 years younger. This leg finally belongs to me now. Thank you."
The old man was very grateful to Li Quan and thanked him repeatedly.
"Young man, just prescribe medicine for me. I believe you can cure my illness."
Li Quan nodded and looked at Bu Jingshui.
"Doctor Bu, this is a patient from your clinic. If I let the old man get the medicine from our hospital, it would seem a bit dishonest of me. But if I prescribe the medicine in your name, since we have just met, I guess you would not want to take the risk."
The Bu brothers' small clinic makes money by treating patients and selling medicine.
Li Quan took the initiative to show off his skills, and there is nothing wrong with that.
Because only by showing one's true abilities can one convince the Bu brothers.
However, it is a bit against the rules to steal food from other people's bowls.
"Well, I wonder which hospital Doctor Li works for? Also, do you have a practicing Chinese medicine physician certificate?" Bu Jingshui was still cautious about this matter.
Seven years ago, he failed because of prescribing medicine for people.
"I have dual certificates in traditional Chinese medicine and Western medicine. As for the unit where I work, I'm worried that you will be hostile to me if I tell you." Li Quan's eyes flashed.
He obtained a practicing physician's license, and two certificates at that. Now he treats patients with his back held high.
Practice medicine legally.
No more having to borrow someone else's name or serve as someone's 'assistant'.
"Are you a doctor at Pujiang Chinese Medicine Hospital? It's been many years since the incident. I hated the hospital for being so ruthless and indifferent. But now I've let it go. Tell me, I won't be hostile to you."
Bu Jingshui felt somewhat complicated when he talked about what happened back then.
"I'm a doctor at Wheeler Hospital."
Li Quan told his origins.
"Ah...it's you! No wonder, no wonder..." Bu Jingshui suddenly realized after learning about Li Quan's origins.
A man's reputation is like the shadow of a tree.
Li Quan has long been a celebrity in the field of orthopedics.
Only Li Quan could challenge Jiang's Hospital and defeat many doctors there by himself.
"Doctor Li... Oh, it's Dean Li. After witnessing your strength with my own eyes today, I am convinced. Your medical skills are even better than the rumors say. Your reputation is well-deserved."
Bu Jingshui seemed very excited.
