Chapter 138 A Miraculous Method to Relieve Deep-Seated Bone and Joint Pain
The toxins are deeply hidden, requiring a roundabout approach to treatment.
I. Chronic bone diseases hinder one's health
A gentle breeze wafts through the tranquil courtyard of the medical clinic, where the surrounding plants and trees are serene and peaceful. Aerial photography slowly captures the scenery inside and outside the entire residence.
Lu Maoshan frowned slightly, looked at the patient sitting beside him, and sighed softly.
"This person has suffered from rheumatism and bone disease for several years, and it has been recurring and difficult to cure."
The sick man had a slightly hunched back, stiff and curled limbs, and a haggard appearance.
"I suffer from constant muscle and bone pain and a feeling of coldness that penetrates to the bone. I have sought medical treatment from many doctors, but I have been unable to eradicate the root cause of the disease."
Zhou Deshan took a slow half-step forward, carefully examining the patient's physique with a solemn and calm expression.
"When cold and dampness have been invading the meridians and muscles for a long time, they accumulate and linger in the bones and muscles, turning into a chronic illness."
Xu Jingming slightly tightened his fingers, his gaze falling on the patient's numb limbs.
"Common herbs can only temporarily relieve pain and cannot fundamentally resolve the deep-seated cold and toxic stagnation."
Lu Maoshan raised his hand and gently stroked his beard, a hint of helplessness on his face.
"I travel the world specializing in treating all kinds of bone and joint diseases, and I have just carefully examined the patient's condition."
"According to my usual prescription for clearing the meridians and removing dampness, it can only temporarily relieve the pain."
"Deep-seated, stagnant toxins are firmly locked between the bones, and I have no way to break them."
He practiced medicine for decades, specializing in musculoskeletal pain and treating countless patients.
However, most chronic illnesses that have been present for a long time and are caused by cold and dampness that have seeped into the bones are beyond cure.
The man slowly lowered his head, his brows filled with loneliness and helplessness.
"I have visited countless grassroots doctors along the way, but each treatment only addresses the symptoms and not the root cause."
The cold, damp energy erodes the blood vessels throughout the body day after day, causing unbearable muscle and bone pain on rainy days.
Suffering from illness for many years, both physically and mentally tormented, they gradually lost confidence in recuperation.
Before calmly taking his seat to examine the patient, Chen Shanhe gazed at the patient with a peaceful look in his eyes and spoke in a gentle and calm voice.
"Your body is out of balance of Yin and Yang, and cold pathogens are lingering inside, causing long-term stagnation of Qi and blood, making it difficult for them to circulate."
Poems as proof:
Cold pathogens penetrate deep into the bones and stagnate for a long time.
For years, he has been plagued by a chronic illness.
Common remedies are ineffective in curing the root cause of the problem.
When will all this suffering end?
II. Differentiating Yin and Yang from Deficiency and Excess, and Evil
Chen Shanhe raised his hand and placed the pulse pillow flat, his fingertips gently resting on the patient's wrist pulse, his expression solemn.
"Let me first determine the balance of Yin and Yang in your body, and distinguish the depth and severity of cold and dampness."
The patient slowly relaxed his arms, his body relaxed slightly, and he responded in a low voice.
"I am exhausted and tormented by illness, doctor. Please take my pulse carefully. I am already physically and mentally exhausted."
Lu Maoshan stood intently to the side, his eyes fixed on the entire diagnosis process, filled with curiosity.
"Those who have always treated bone diseases simply look at the blockage of the meridians, without distinguishing between yin and yang."
Zhou Deshan stood quietly to one side, his expression solemn and dignified, observing the patient's diagnostic approach.
"All things in the world are divided into yin and yang, and the five internal organs, muscles, bones, and blood vessels are all subject to the laws of creation."
Xu Jingming's eyes were clear and bright as he carefully observed every subtle diagnostic technique his master used.
"Only by taking the principles of Yin and Yang in the I Ching as our foundation can we see through the root causes of illness."
Chen Shanhe slowly felt the pulse rising and falling with his fingertips, and his lips curled slightly into a faint smile.
"This person has an excess of yin energy and a gradual decline in yang energy, with internal and external cold and heat intertwined and intertwined."
"On the surface, there is only numbness and soreness in the meridians, but deep in the bones, there is a buildup of cold and turbid toxins."
Simply focusing on dispelling wind and dampness will only deplete the body's vital energy, causing the symptoms to worsen repeatedly.
Lu Maoshan paused slightly, his pupils contracted slightly, and a sudden realization dawned on him.
Throughout his life, he only knew how to remove surface dampness when treating illnesses, and never distinguished between the superficial and the deep, the weak and the strong.
Blindly applying fixed, ancestral prescriptions without considering whether the medicine is hot or cold, or whether the yin and yang are strong or weak, is ineffective.
If medication is used haphazardly and without proper consideration, many stubborn diseases will naturally never be cured in the long run.
The entire medical clinic courtyard was quiet and still, with a gentle breeze rustling the leaves under the eaves, and a distant aerial view unfolding.
Outdated and rigid medical thinking has limited the vision of generations of grassroots doctors.
Chen Shanhe slowly withdrew his fingertips, his gaze calm and resolute, and continued speaking.
"The biggest problem that bone diseases are difficult to cure is that one does not understand the differentiation of Yin and Yang and the internal and external aspects."
Poems as proof:
The Yin and Yang, deficiency and excess, conceal the source of illness.
The intertwining of cold and heat penetrates to the very core.
Incompetent doctors do not understand the principles of nature.
Blindly administering medicine is a waste of kindness.
III. Using indirect methods to break through obstacles
Chen Shanhe's gaze was calm and resolute, and his words subtly revealed the strategies of a military strategist for self-cultivation and worldly affairs.
"To dissolve long-standing bone stagnation, one should not use strong medicine or forceful methods, but rather a roundabout approach."
Upon hearing this, Lü Maoshan leaned forward slightly, his face full of surprise.
"The treatment of diseases and injuries has always prioritized attacking the pathogens; I have never heard of a roundabout way of regulating the body."
Xu Jingming's eyebrows relaxed, and he nodded knowingly, already familiar with his master's unique medical philosophy.
"Military strategists believe in dealing with a fortified enemy while taking a slow and methodical approach, dismantling the enemy layer by layer, which is exactly the same principle as healing an illness."
Zhou Deshan slowly and softly revealed the inner secrets, his mind clear, calm and composed.
"The stubborn poison is firmly rooted deep inside; a rash attack will only damage the body's vital energy and blood."
Chen Shanhe raised his hand and slowly gestured the flow of blood throughout his body, his expression clear and organized.
"First, use mild medicinal herbs to clear the superficial meridians and slowly expel the stagnant moisture from the surface."
"It penetrates inward step by step, slowly breaking down the layers of old, accumulated toxins in the bone crevices."
"Dissolve the problem step by step from the outside in, and carefully control the strength and intensity of the medicine in offense, defense, advance, and retreat."
He created his own unique military strategy of "large-scale detour treatment," specifically designed to address all chronic and intractable diseases.
The prescriptions can be flexibly modified and combined at will, without adhering to single prescriptions or ancient formulas, or being bound by old routines.
Rigidly passed-down ancestral remedies can only treat superficial and temporary ailments.
As worldly affairs and human relationships constantly change, and people's physical constitutions change year by year, prescriptions naturally need to be adapted.
Lu Maoshan quietly and intently observed each step of the treatment plan, his mind constantly being shaken.
Decades of deeply ingrained medical beliefs are gradually and completely collapsing and changing at this moment.
His former arrogant and conceited nature has gradually begun to subside and fade.
The disdain and prejudice I felt when we first met have now largely dissipated.
Blindly sticking to the old ways and stagnating, relying solely on one's own approach to medicine, is far too narrow-minded.
Compared to the insightful and far-sighted vision of the young doctor before him, the difference in their abilities is immediately apparent.
Poems as proof:
The military strategy is circuitous, breaking through the silt and mud.
It can gradually unblock the meridians and relieve stagnation.
The prescription should be adjusted according to the symptoms.
It transcends the mundane and conventional ways of the world.
IV. Witnessing the wondrous Dharma shakes one's original mind
The patient slowly stretched out his stiff arm, and upon hearing the treatment plan, a glimmer of hope appeared in his eyes.
"This gradual and gentle method of recuperation must be absolutely safe and secure."
Chen Shanhe nodded slightly, his expression compassionate, always mindful of a doctor's benevolence, and spoke softly to comfort him.
"By gradually strengthening the body's foundation and supporting its Yang energy, and by harmonizing the disordered Qi and blood throughout the body, the illness can be eradicated."
Lu Maoshan stood there silently for a long time, his mind churning with countless thoughts.
Watching the entire diagnostic and treatment process from beginning to end was incredibly moving.
Having spent the last half of his life practicing medicine, he only focused on the immediate illnesses and pains, resulting in a narrow perspective and limited, shallow thinking.
They only mechanically dispense medicine and prepare soup, never delving into the hidden causes of the patient's illness.
In contrast, Chen Shanhe, despite his young age, has mastered the philosophy of the I Ching and the principles of military strategy.
He treats both the body and mind, addressing both the symptoms and the underlying issues, demonstrating a far superior approach and perspective in his medical practice compared to many veteran doctors.
My own unique folk remedy for bone disease, which I had relied on for half my life, suddenly seemed insignificant.
The ingrained medical philosophy that one stubbornly adheres to throughout one's life is entirely one-sided and superficial.
There are always people more capable than you, and there is always something beyond your understanding. This young man's extraordinary medical skills are no exaggeration.
In the past, I looked down on younger generations based on my experience and seniority, which was truly a sign of my shortsightedness.
His arrogance gradually subsided, replaced by genuine admiration in his eyes.
He silently marveled at the vast and profound nature of the medical profession, realizing that his own knowledge was but a drop in the ocean.
Aerial photography slowly enveloped the entire courtyard, and the wind rustled the grass and trees in front of the courtyard, cleansing away the dust and grime.
Witnessing firsthand the amazing treatment methods completely changed Lü Maoshan's future path in medicine.
He quietly planted the seed of yearning for the Great Way in his heart, and his desire to comprehend higher medical principles grew ever stronger.
I will patiently wait for the right opportunity to arise, and then willingly set aside my pride and humbly seek your guidance.
Poems as proof:
Once you witness the mystery of the apricot forest,
I suddenly realized that all my learning in my life was biased.
Arrogance vanished, replaced by reverence.
From this point on, I understand the karmic connections of the world.
