Chinese medicine is inferior to western medicine?
"Are you sure you want to personally feel the changes in your leg?" Yang Dequan did not immediately refuse,
He just asked a question in return.
Su Wujie said, "I want to personally feel it,
Although after fainting, I won't feel any pain. Maybe I'll feel better,
But I still don't want to fall asleep. "
Doctors had doctors' considerations. They were afraid that the patient wouldn't be able to withstand this kind of pain,
So they would give anesthetics or knock people out. But as an injured person, especially the left leg, there was a risk of amputation,
Su Wujie still hoped to feel pain. This way, he might be able to truly feel it,
The existence of these two legs.
"In that case,
Then I won't knock you out. But let me put it bluntly. If you're awake,
Even if you can't withstand this kind of pain,
The treatment won't stop once it starts. Do you still want to be awake? "Yang Dequan confirmed again.
Su Wujie said with certainty, "I'm sure. What do I want to do?"
Even if Yang Dequan explained all the stakes clearly,
He still decided to face it soberly.
These two feelings were different,
He would not feel that kind of pain if he was unconscious the entire time,
But compared to the feeling of disappointment,
It could not be compared.
He would rather feel this kind of pain deeply than be unconscious the entire time,
He did not know anything.
This feeling of not being known..,
It was not good either,
So in comparison, it was better to be awake.
At this moment, Yang Dequan had already begun to prepare the things he wanted to treat. It was still silver needles and soju wine.
The disinfection of the silver needles was carried out by Su Xiao. It was still two sets of silver needles, one set for backup.
Su Wujie watched soberly this time. His sister was busy disinfecting the two sets of silver needles for him.
His sister had been busy for so many days because of his matters. He sighed in his heart, "I, Su Wujie, am still happy. Whether it's my family or my partner, they're all busy for my matters."
Yang Dequan began to insert the needles. The needle technique was fast and steady. In less than a second, each needle had already been steadily inserted into the acupoint.
Su Xiao watched seriously and remembered every step.
These were all things she needed to practice in the future. In the future, when she combined Western medicine with Chinese medicine, it would be twice the result with half the effort for her medical career.
Su Wujie was also watching, but he couldn't understand. He only saw the old man's hand quickly inserting the needles, but he couldn't see anything else.
Because Su Wujie did not want to be put into a deep sleep, Yang Dequan did not stimulate his acupuncture point this time.
In order to let Su Wujie deeply feel the changes in his legs and the changes in the pain, he did not use acupuncture on his acupuncture points. Once the needle was inserted into the acupuncture point, he would not feel any pain. It was as if he had been injected with anesthetic. But now, there was no pain in his left leg. If he really used acupuncture to numb the acupoints, he didn't know how much his leg had recovered and whether it had been stimulated back.
Of course, as a doctor, Yang Dequan could still see the recovery through the fine observation of the meridians. However, Su Wujie didn't know that. In order to let him experience the changes himself, he didn't give him the injection.
"Little Su, I'm going to start now. The nerves in your right leg are not necrotic, so you can clearly feel the pain. Last time, because you were in a deep sleep, you didn't even remember the pain. This time, it's different. Don't underestimate the pain. I'll be honest with you. You can't bear it. But after the treatment starts, no matter how much you can't bear it, you have to bear with it. You can't stop halfway. Otherwise, all the previous efforts will be wasted. Do you understand? "Before starting the treatment, Yang Dequan reminded Su Wujie seriously.
Su Wujie nodded. "Don't worry, old man. I'm mentally prepared. I know how painful this treatment will be. "
Not to mention that he was in the middle of treatment, even now, two days had passed, but the pain in his right leg was still very strong. It was easy to imagine how severe the pain would be if they continued to do so.
Seeing that he was ready, Yang Dequan didn't talk nonsense and started his treatment.
The quality of the sorghum wine was better than yesterday's. The old man was very satisfied.
The better the quality of the wine, the more effective it would be for Su Wujie's recovery.
The wine this time was brought by Su Xiao and the others. The Tong Gang bought it from a fellow villager's house. It was made by the fellow villager himself, so it was absolutely pure.
Su Wujie personally experienced the intense pain from the slap this time. If he had to describe it, the pain this time was close to level-12 pain.
He thought that even if it hurt, it wouldn't hurt to this extent. He didn't expect that a man like him, who had experienced so many life and death situations, to be injured on the battlefield was a common occurrence, let alone being injured during training. No matter what kind of pain it was, it couldn't be compared to the pain he was facing now.
He couldn't describe this kind of pain with words.
The external pain on his skin was like a fire burning his skin. It was a burning pain.
Inside, it was his nerves recovering one by one. He felt as if his nerves were being crushed and reassembled.
He couldn't describe this kind of feeling.
Imagine a pregnant woman giving birth to a child. It was the same kind of pain as if her bones were being torn apart. The pain Su Wujie felt now was even more intense than the pain he felt when he was giving birth. Because this was acting on his nerves, the pain from his nerves would be magnified several times. Therefore, it was even more painful than the pain of having his bones torn apart.
However, the pain in his nerves was also a little cold. This kind of contradictory feeling made him even crazier.
Yang Dequan saw his expression and praised him in his heart. Kid Su is really good. He's facing pain so clearly, but he doesn't even frown. He's a real man.
He didn't know how much strength Su Wujie had to use to not scream when he was enduring the pain.
Although his expression was expressionless, no one knew how much he was suffering inside.
Su Xiao was also watching seriously. Every time she watched, she was amazed by the old man's skills. His technique was slightly different every time. Whether it was testing the beating of the nerves or the strength of the slap, there were changes.
The last two times, she saw him slap with the palm of his hand. This time, he actually used the back of his hand.
His palm was thick, so when he slapped, the sound was very loud. However, the pain wasn't as intense because the flesh was blocking it. As for the effect, she still wasn't sure.
This time, the old man changed from the palm to the back of his hand.
The back of his hand had less flesh and more bone. When he slapped, the sound was very soft, but the pain intensified. In terms of the effect, she still didn't know.
Seeing her staring at the back of his hand, the old man knew that she had doubts, so he started to explain. "The strength of the palm and the back of the hand are different. The palm is fleshy, so it doesn't hurt when you slap. You should know this. "
Su Xiao nodded and heard the old man say, "Even if the strength of the palm is the same as the back of the hand, the effect of the slap is different. First, it's pain. The injured person doesn't feel much pain, so they can endure it. Second, because of the flesh on the palm, the strength can't be transmitted, so it often stays on the surface of the skin. Of course, this is for ordinary people. For me, the strength can still be transmitted to the muscles and bones. It's just that the transmission of strength isn't as intense. "
It turned out that when the old man slapped, even for a doctor with internal strength, a part of the strength still stayed on the surface of the skin and couldn't be transmitted to the muscles and bones. For ordinary people, wouldn't ten percent of the strength reach the muscles and bones?
When she thought of this result, Su Xiao was shocked.
Yang Dequan said again, "The back of the hand is different. The back of the hand has less flesh, so when you slap, all the strength can be transmitted to the muscles and bones, so the effect is better and the pain is more intense. "
Su Xiao was slightly shocked, but at the same time, she thought to herself, "Then why didn't you use the strength on the back of the hand from the beginning? Wouldn't that heal faster? "
Yang Dequan seemed to see her doubts and explained, "The first two times, whether it was the muscles or the muscles and bones, they weren't prepared at all. If I transmitted the strength on the back of the hand from the beginning, not only would there be no treatment effect, but it might also hurt his meridians. The loss outweighs the gain. Everything has a process. At the beginning, there needs to be a test. This is also the reason why I didn't use the strength on the back of the hand from the beginning. It's also the reason why I didn't continuously slap Little Su's right leg from the beginning. First, I was afraid that he wouldn't be able to take it. Second, without a process of adaptation, it would hurt his muscles and meridians. "
Su Xiao finally understood that there were so many mysteries behind it.
She had always been studying western medicine. Western medicine was more direct, especially surgeons. During surgery, they must be direct. Whether it was the removal of the bullet, the suturing of the wound, or other situations, they had to be comprehensive.
Chinese medicine emphasized step-by-step. It was a slow process to not hurt the meridians and blood vessels.
Chinese medicine also emphasized the use of Qi. Therefore, real Chinese medicine practitioners practiced Qigong, which was the use of Qi.
When it came to medicine, the combination of Qi and blood was used to the extreme.
If there was little or no Qi in the blood, it was easy to cause anemia. If there was too much Qi or waste gas in the blood, it was easy to cause blood stasis.
Chinese medicine emphasized balance. The internal organs and meridians of the body were interacting. As long as there was a small problem, it could lead to other diseases.
Take Su Wujie's legs for example. His left leg was already necrotic. If these necrotic meridians were not awakened and treated, it would affect his right leg, which was not necrotic yet. It might even spread to his waist, and then cause harm to his internal organs.
This was also the reason why Dr. He said that amputation was necessary.
Now, the old man had switched to using the back of his hand for two reasons. First, Su Wujie's legs had already adapted to the patting two days ago. Second, Su Wujie wanted to speed up, so he switched to using the back of his hand.
According to his plan, it would take at least five days to test with the palm and then change to the back of the hand. Since the patient was so anxious and he had already tested the results, he changed the treatment method today.
First, he would use the palm lightly, then the back of the hand heavily. The strength gradually increased from light to heavy.
They were talking over there, so they did not notice Su Wujie's expression.
At this moment, Su Wujie was really in unbearable pain.
If the old man had used the palm at the beginning, he could still endure the pain. But now that the old man had changed to the back of the hand, he really could not bear it.
But he still gritted his teeth and endured it.
Because of the tension in his bones, the old man noticed his movements and said, "Little Su, relax, relax your muscles. If you really can't take it, I'll put you to sleep for a while, or I'll give you a needle. How about that? "
Su Wujie gritted his teeth and said, "No, Old Man, I can bear it."
The old man smiled and said, "Okay then, bear with it. I haven't really started yet. I'm just giving you an appetizer."
Su Wujie was shocked. It's so painful, and it hasn't really started yet? It's just an appetizer?
Then, he finally understood the difference between the appetizer and the real beginning. He only had one thought in his mind. It really f * cking hurts!
…
Dr. He waited anxiously outside the door.
With this kind of torment, she finally understood why some patients' family members were irritable.
The feeling of waiting was not good.
She believed in the old man's treatment.
Although she did not examine Su Wujie's legs in the past three days, she could see with her doctor's eyes that Second Brother Su's legs were changing. This was a kind of change that went from bad to good.
Father Su and the others were also sighing. Father Su had experienced this feeling of waiting during treatment before.
It was the process of being sent to the hospital after his comrade was injured by the enemy. He had experienced that kind of pain. He did not expect to experience it again on his son.
He even wondered in his heart whether it was right or wrong for him to send his son to the army.
Time slowly passed while they waited.
At this moment, a few specialist doctors came over. "Dr. He, when can Comrade Su's amputation surgery be performed?"
Father Su and Mother Su, who were sitting on the bench in the corridor, jumped out in shock when they heard the specialist doctor say "amputation". Father Su asked, "What amputation?"
The specialist doctor asked, "You are …?"
"I'm Su Wujie's father. What amputation were you talking about just now? "
The specialist doctor did not see Dr. He's meaningful glance and said, "Oh, it's like this. One of Comrade Su's legs is completely necrotic and can only be amputated. Otherwise, it will affect the good leg and even the vital organs and six lungs. Therefore, our specialist doctor's diagnosis is amputation. "
Mother Su almost could not stand this conclusion. "How can it be so serious? Isn't it just a leg injury? "
Father Su was still calm. Even though he was overwhelmed with emotions, he still supported Mother Su and comforted her. But in his heart, he thought, 'No wonder Lanzi was so anxious to find Quan Shu. No wonder Vivi, the specialist doctor, was so anxious. So, this is the reason. '
"Dr. He …"
Dr. He said, "We won't perform the amputation surgery for now." Who would want to perform an amputation when there was a cure?
The specialist doctor still wanted to persuade him, but suddenly, they heard a scream of pain from the ward. "Ah —"
The ward had a certain level of soundproofing, so when Grandpa Quan hit the door, the sound of "pa pa" could not be heard. However, Su Wujie's scream clearly traveled outside and into everyone's ears.
This sound made everyone's heart pound. Their first reaction was, 'What's going on inside? What happened? '
The specialist doctor was stunned at first. Then, he wanted to barge in, but Dr. He was already blocking the door. Her eyes were very cold. "If anyone dares to take a step forward, don't blame me for being rude!"
"Dr. He, what are you doing?"
Dr. He did not say anything. She just looked at them coldly, not allowing them to do anything.
At this moment, Father Su said, "Doctors, please wait. My son is receiving treatment inside. Don't disturb him."
"Who is receiving treatment inside?"
"An old Chinese doctor," Father Su replied.
Someone in the specialist doctor's group said angrily, "Isn't this nonsense? None of us can do anything. What can an old Chinese doctor do? In a situation where Western medicine can't do anything, what's the use of Chinese medicine? You're trying to make Comrade Su's injury worse. What nonsense! "
As he spoke, he wanted to barge into the ward. However, Dr. He blocked the door and no one could enter.
Father Su said, "Your Western medicine is so good. Why can't it cure him? Chinese medicine is something our ancestors left behind. Why is it inferior to Western medicine? As long as there's a chance to help my son stand up again, whether it's Chinese medicine or Western medicine, I'm willing to try. Since the worst case scenario is amputation, even if it's not cured, the outcome will still be amputation. Why don't we try? "
Father Su had already recovered from the shock of hearing the word "amputation". He spoke bluntly.
He did not understand Western medicine, nor did he understand Chinese medicine. However, he only knew one outcome. As long as it could help his son's leg injury, he was willing to give it a try. No matter what method it was, he was willing to try.
However, someone in the specialist doctor's group said, "Nonsense, this is nonsense!" However, there was nothing else they could do. The door was blocked by Dr. He, and Father Su was glaring at them from the side.
In the end, they were so angry that they left.
Dr. He breathed a sigh of relief. Many of these specialists were her teachers. She did not dare to argue with them. The only thing she could do was to block the door.
Fortunately, Father Su retorted. Otherwise, if they really barged in, the consequences would be unimaginable.
After that, no other sound came from inside.
Who would have thought that the scream came from Su Wujie's mouth?
At this moment, Su Wujie's face was covered in sweat. This was because he was in pain.
He did not expect that after Grandpa Su said that this was just an appetizer, the additional force at the end would cause him such pain.
Even if he did the surgery without anesthetics, he could still endure this kind of pain. However, just now, he could not endure it no matter what.
At this moment, a piece of gauze was stuffed into his mouth to block his tongue. He was afraid that he would bite his tongue while screaming.
As Yang Dequan treated him, he said, "Little Su, is this kind of pain unbearable?"
Su Wujie was already in so much pain that he did not have the strength to answer. He could only nod helplessly.
More sweat dripped down his face. The feeling of enduring pain was really uncomfortable.
He had a feeling that this kind of pain was better than letting Grandpa Su give him a needle and letting him pass out.
However, this kind of pain reminded him again and again that he had been injured before. It also told him that he had to stand up. He did not want to endure this kind of pain in the future.
It was better to have a short period of pain than a long period of pain. If he could stand up again in exchange for a short period of pain, then he was willing to endure this kind of pain.
Su Xiao wiped the sweat on her second brother's face. "Brother, bear with it a little more. If you really can't endure it, we'll use the old method next time and give you a few needles."
Su Wujie did not say anything. He only shook his head.
At this moment, the treatment on his right leg had finished.
Su Xiao looked over. Second Brother Su's right leg was already densely covered in black spots. It was as if a layer of ink had been smeared on it. It was so black that it shone.
How much poison was in it? How could it be so black?
"Little Su, not bad." As Yang Dequan put down his hand, he praised Su Wujie from the bottom of his heart.
Most people would not be able to endure this kind of pain.
This kind of pain was not only on the surface of the skin, but also on the inside when the tendons and veins were recovering.
The sensitivity of the nerves was high to begin with. This force was added to the nerves, so the pain would be infinitely magnified.
Yang Dequan used alcohol to test his hand. Then, he dipped his hand into the burnt bowl of sorghum wine.
Although the alcohol in the wine had been burned out, there were still other substances in it. It was best to use it to dip his hand.
This was also his habit. Every time he used up the sorghum wine, he would not waste it. The substance of the wine would enter his palm and then seep into the pores that he opened after patting. This was an extremely nourishing substance. How could he waste it?
Su Wujie had already spat out the gauze in his mouth. He said, "I will never forget today's experience for the rest of my life."
Yang Dequan smiled. "Everything that happened today will repeat itself every day. Don't tell me you don't want to face it with a clear mind?"
Su Wujie said word by word, "No, for the following treatment, I want to watch it with a clear mind. I won't fall asleep and not know anything."
Yang Dequan rested for a while, then poured out the sorghum wine and lit it up.
"Little Su, next I will start treating your left leg. You are awake now, so you should properly feel the changes in your left leg. If there are any changes, remember to tell me. "
Su Wujie said, "Old Master, please don't worry. I will use my heart to feel it."
His left leg was the most important. Right now, he could not feel it at all. If he could feel the slightest change, then it meant that his leg could not be healed again.
Yang Dequan began the treatment. This time, he increased the strength of his treatment. However, Su Wujie still could not feel the slightest bit of pain. He did not even feel the slightest change.
"Brother, it's only been three days. It can't be that fast."
Su Wujie said, "I know. This leg is already completely necrotic. If I can feel the changes in three days, then it's too fast."
…
The door of the ward was opened again. It was already four hours later.
This time, it took even longer than the first time. Thinking of Su Wujie's screams, Dr. He was the first to enter the ward. She ran over and asked him, "Wujie, how are you?"
Su Wujie smiled at her. "I'm fine. I'm fine."
Dr. He looked at his exposed legs again and was shocked by the terrible condition. The situation today was even worse than two days ago. His entire leg was like charcoal, and it looked a little scary.
"It's okay, Vivi. I can feel a warm current flowing in my right leg. Although I can't feel my left leg, I believe that this leg will recover. "
Yang Dequan said, "Today's situation is better than yesterday. This leg is recovering better than I expected."
"Really, Old Master?" Dr. He's eyes lit up.
Su Xiao and the others also looked at him and listened carefully.
Yang Dequan said, "That's right. Although Su Wujie's left leg doesn't seem to have any reaction, I can still feel the subtle changes during the treatment process. Only I can sense these changes. Don't worry. This leg of his will be able to sense the changes in less than ten days. "
This news was undoubtedly good news.
Yang Dequan was about to pack his things and go back when he saw the members of the specialist team who had left come back.
When they saw that everyone was gathered in the ward, someone said, "Why are there so many people gathered here? The patient needs to rest. Dr. He, as a doctor, don't you understand this principle? Do you still need us to teach you? "
Dr. He's expression froze. They had been too worried at that time and had indeed rushed into the ward. This was not good for the patient's recovery.
Some of them first looked at the others in the ward and then looked at Yang Dequan. "You're the old Chinese doctor who treated the patient?"
Yang Dequan had already placed the silver needles back into his pocket. Then, he took out a bottle of the soju wine that had already been used. It was shameful to waste things. Some things could be used again. He had come from a difficult life. It was his style to not waste a single drop.
When he heard someone ask, he looked over and saw that it was the specialist doctor of the hospital. He said, "That's right. It's this old man."
"Nonsense! Who told you to swindle people here? "
Su Xiao couldn't help but say, "Doctor Dong, please watch your words! What do you mean by swindle people? "
"Doctor Su, I know that you and Dr. He are worried about Comrade Su's injury and thought of Chinese medicine. If Chinese medicine was useful, the specialists in the hospital would have thought of a way, but they also can't do anything. I don't know where you found this old Chinese doctor. Do you know that this is nonsense? "
Su Xiao was so angry that her chest heaved up and down.
