I tell a magical story about Chinese herbal medicine. The story took place in the 1970s. My father-in-law had a toothache for several days, and he didn't think about tea and rice. An old man near his home has a prescription of herbal powder for toothache. Because my father-in-law and he don't answer questions, it's inconvenient and they dare not ask him for medicine. My father-in-law made a subtotal and asked me to go out and ask him for medicine. I ran to the old man to ask him for medicine, saying that my father had a toothache and asked him to prescribe some medicine. He said with a smile, I said it was true, and then he went into the room and took out a small bag of powder, about 3 to 5 grams, which was turquoise powder. I said thank you to him, and he didn't take any money. When I returned to my father-in-law's house and gave him the medicine, he immediately flooded his teeth with a small amount of powder, and his toothache stopped in less than ten minutes. In the folk, many are not doctors, but herbs that have been tested by ancestors or in person. There are unilateral and compound herbs with unique curative effects. No one can deny it if they want to. Unfortunately, the old man didn't say the name of the herb until his death, and it was lost. Therefore, I think it is very necessary to attach importance to and carry forward folk Chinese medicine for the benefit of the people.

In fact, there are many stories about Chinese medicine.

My cousin, who was about twenty years old at that time, was not married.

Two lumps inexplicably grew on both sides of the first joint of her right index finger. She didn't take it seriously at first. Later, it became red, swollen, hot and painful, and the skin began to turn black. In desperation, go to the county hospital for examination.

The doctor in the county hospital said that the disease needed amputation. Cousin was frightened. She doesn't want to be disabled. Cry when you get home. I'm, uh, menstruating. It's urgent. Later, I sought treatment from my uncle.

My uncle is just a folk herb farmer. He knows how to treat some diseases. He is illiterate. Diligent and honest. When he was young, he went out to farm early one day and suddenly went blind. I told my dad in a panic to find his uncle at once. My father was a child then. When he arrived at his uncle's house, he happened to be out. He fell asleep on the sofa. Don't tell my uncle until he comes back. After dinner, my uncle quickly picked herbs and told me how to use them. It was my uncle's treatment that made my uncle's eyes better. Perhaps this thing made my uncle interested in Chinese medicine. Use your spare time to study.

My uncle has been silent since he looked at my cousin's finger. Let it wait at home. He went to collect medicine alone. Take the medicine, pound it into residue, and apply it on your fingers. After a period of treatment. It doesn't matter.

My dad's uncle is also a legend. what can I say?

He died in the early 1970s. The year of birth should be after 1900. When he was young, he liked Chinese medicine and spent all his money learning from his teachers. He didn't get married until he was forty-five. I have a daughter, but unfortunately I have no son. He treats diseases well, but his thoughts are feudal and conservative. Before he died, he appointed his family to burn all his medical books in front of him. When my uncle arrived, everything turned to ashes. I am very sorry.

A friend of my dad's has a boil under his navel. I saw a white tendon deep in the center, and I cried when I touched it. The surrounding muscle ulcers are red, and the pus that flows out smells bad. Long-term treatment will not heal. Later, my uncle used several kinds of medicine, and I didn't know there was calomel. After a whole month of medication, I finally recovered.

Sometimes some strange diseases can be cured by Chinese medicine.

I also watched a video about a girl who got a strange and inexplicable disease. She couldn't walk well and suddenly curled up on the ground like a snake. The locals said she was a baby snake. This worries my parents. Take her to the hospital for diagnosis, saying that it is caused by psychological problems and there is no cure. Said he was going to do psychotherapy [covering his face].

At that time, it was made into a movie, hoping that someone could save the child. A Chinese doctor came to Heilongjiang and said that he would treat his children himself. He said it would not work in three days, so he took it back to Heilongjiang for treatment. After his acupuncture and Chinese medicine treatment, he slowly recovered.

This is a real case.

Usually, I always see some Chinese medicine practitioners saying that Chinese medicine is unscientific. I'm surprised. Treating diseases in traditional Chinese medicine is to pay attention to curative effect. Can cure diseases, both Chinese and western medicine are good.

The basic theory of traditional Chinese medicine is particularly important. Many people and even some TCM clinicians do not attach importance to this basic theory. The basic theory of traditional Chinese medicine is a powerful weapon to guide doctors to treat strange diseases.

How can you understand without studying? People who are always clamoring for science and unscientific can learn to understand first. Shut up if you don't understand.

Experience the magic of traditional Chinese medicine personally

1989, I work in a book guide as the director of the advertising department. Because the advertising work was not satisfactory, I was severely criticized by the president, saying that I only wanted to publish my own stone-appreciating prose "Strange Stone and Appreciation", which delayed my work.

Because my book was written at night and I didn't use my working hours, I felt very wronged. At that time, I was proofreading the publication edited by the newspaper in Zhijiang county printing plant, and suddenly I fell ill, and a big bud grew at the root of my thigh. I have a fever all day, lying in the bed of the hostel, taking medicine is ineffective, and injections are ineffective.

Later, I returned to Wuhan and went to Wuhan Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine to see Chief Physician Lin Zhengguo. I once published an exclusive interview about his medical skills in Changjiang Daily. Dr. Lin warmed my pulse and asked me if I had encountered anything unpleasant. I told my grievances and worries, and he comforted me by saying that if you are happy, you will get better. He prescribed me several pairs of Chinese medicines. After only one day, my fever went down, and the bag at the root of my thigh disappeared. I think Chinese medicine is really amazing.

During my medical work in Cameroon, the magical four silver needles cupping combined with moxibustion cured the back and leg pain of Muslim elders. On June 6th, 2004, National Day, there was a domestic holiday. We had to make rounds as usual and go to the emergency department for foreign aid. The head nurse of the hospital came to my doctor's office. He told me that the Muslim elder in Jide city was ill and invited many doctors at home and abroad to treat him, but it didn't work. I want you to treat them. This is a political task. I immediately asked the medical team leader and agreed to drive to his residence. The elder lives next to the Muslim mosque in Jide. There are two yards. There are doormen and many Muslim old people at the door, greeting each other. The head nurse took us into the elder's bedroom. This room is very big. There is a kind old man who is nearly 80 years old lying in bed with a painful face. It is difficult for his lower limbs to move high. His groin and front thigh pain is unbearable. It has been more than 20 days since the onset. After examination, the initial diagnosis was ① sacroiliac ligament injury and ② piriformis injury. For ordinary patients, we should treat them well. Because the elderly are older and thinner, a set of treatment schemes with little pain and easy acceptance must be adopted. I chose acupuncture, massage, cupping and moxibustion for him. When cupping, he kept asking what this jar was for. Does it hurt? I explained to him that this was China's medical method, and the igniter lit him. I tried to pull one out of my leg and told him not to be afraid. It's not very comfortable to burn. I put a needle in his waist, hip and sacroiliac joint, and then I left the needle. Cupping on the needle is also called acupuncture and cupping. This method has been used until now. 10 minutes later, I pulled out moxibustion and the effect was particularly obvious. The pain completely disappeared and the old man fell asleep quietly. The old people around our elders treated us with traditional Chinese medicine. The next day, we went to the old man's home again until the old man could sit by the bed. When he saw us, he thanked us again and again. He always said it was great. Therefore, he was treated for 3 days according to his condition, and his symptoms basically recovered. Finally, there is a requirement that he only uses cupping instead of acupuncture. I agreed to use 8 cans and did a gentle local rehabilitation massage. After the treatment, the old man had to get out of bed to say goodbye. I helped the old man sit down and said goodbye. Our work in foreign aid shows that a doctor from China has contributed to the friendship between the Chinese and Cameroonian peoples, and he is indescribable happy. Before we entered the house, many Muslim elders sent their thanks. It was Dr. China who cured the old man. We successfully completed the task and continued to complete the new task to see the mayor's wife.

It's true. On the eve of the Spring Festival, I went to Hainan to visit my relatives. My relatives are all self-taught Chinese medicine practitioners and are well-known in the local area. (I am good at treating intractable diseases, such as advanced hepatic ascites, which I saw with my own eyes.) I went to his house that day and heard that just the day before yesterday, a friend who came back from Wuhan wore a mask.
