I Can Hear the Heart's Voice of Traditional Chinese Medicine-Chapter 166 - 78: Really Treating Dr. Lu Like Family Now (2/3)

This is a good thing.

Kills several birds with one stone.

Especially for the patients, although they still have to pay some "flying knife" fees, it's really nothing compared to expensive medical fees.

A few days in the ICU will cost more than that, and if some expensive equipment is used, it could far exceed the cost of the flying knife.

The patients benefit from it.

The Ninth Hospital can also free up some wards and gain a good reputation.

As for Lu Xuan himself, he can earn a decent income, and gain fame. More hospitals might seek his "flying knife" services, naturally boosting his reputation.

Of course, there's one more thing Wu Liguo doesn't know, that is, he's also honing his medical skills.

Otherwise, Lu Xuan wouldn't think about treating a few more people before going back, isn't it just to accumulate more experience and learn more about acupuncture from a group of teachers?

Otherwise, back at the Health Center, it would be hard to find so many stroke patients.

Even if there are some, not many.

Most of the time, people who have a stroke won't go to the Health Center. They will go to big hospitals, or if someone has a stroke, ambulances will take the patients to big hospitals, having nothing to do with the Health Center.

Wu Liguo briefly explained the situation in the obstetrics department to Ye Xiang, and Ye Xiang immediately understood, "Old Wu, you're trying to ask if Dr. Lu has any solutions, right?"

"You got it, Old Ye! You really know me inside out!" Wu Liguo laughed.

"Come on, you're the one who's inside!"

Ye Xiang retorted, "When it comes to obstetrics, finding me is useless, but since you called me, besides asking Dr. Lu, I can't think of anyone else."

"Since you guessed, quickly ask Dr. Lu. The situation here is urgent, if nothing works, we'll have to try to persuade the patient."

"That young girl is really difficult. If you have time, you can give it a try. She's almost got me to tears, she won't budge at all!" Wu Liguo couldn't help complaining.

Ye Xiang shrugged, "Forget it, if your mouth couldn't persuade her, I'm not going to seek trouble, but I'll go ask Dr. Lu now. I think he's about done here, and we really have to thank you today, Dr. Lu's acupuncture skills are really impressive."

"Hurry up then."

With Wu Liguo's urging, Ye Xiang went to the ward, and at that moment, Lu Xuan was packing his acupuncture kit. Ye Xiang, delighted, pulled Lu Xuan out of the ward, "Dr. Lu, there's something Old Wu wants to ask your advice on."

"Go ahead, Director Ye." Lu Xuan was curious why Ye Xiang suddenly pulled him out.

Ye Xiang quickly described the situation Wu Liguo mentioned and couldn't help saying, "That young girl is very frail, with weak uterine contractions, unable to deliver, and unwilling to let Director Song and the others use forceps. Several people have tried to persuade her for a long time but to no avail. Old Wu thought of you being here, and wanted to see if you know if there's any good Chinese medicine method for this situation."

Upon hearing this, Lu Xuan immediately frowned.

In fact, traditional Chinese medicine isn't particularly skilled in childbirth. In ancient times, midwives usually delivered babies, and Chinese medicine involvement in childbirth was rare, with not much literature on it.

They didn't teach this in school either, so Lu Xuan was a bit at a loss.

He wanted to shake his head, but seeing Ye Xiang's expectant expression, he didn't quite know what to do at the moment.

However, while Lu Xuan was lost in thought, the Heart's Voice echoing in his ears caught his attention:

[Weak contractions, isn't that what traditional Chinese medicine calls dystocia?]

[Dystocia, in the concept of traditional Chinese medicine, can actually be seen as a qi stagnation and blood stasis syndrome, although slightly different, the treatment should focus on promoting qi and regulating the uterus to induce labor. Drinking medicine certainly won't do, but well, traditional Chinese medicine isn't just about prescriptions, when medicine can't reach, there's always acupuncture!]

...

Lu Xuan didn't know who was speaking, but these words were like unblocking his meridians, making his eyes shine.

Dystocia, isn't it indeed treatable as qi stagnation and blood stasis in the concept of traditional Chinese medicine?

Although slightly different, the essence is almost the same, this would work.

The more he engaged, the more Lu Xuan developed a deep appreciation, the wonders of traditional Chinese medicine often lie in these aspects. Where there seems to be no path, predecessors have already laid a road for successors, and just following that highway will lead to the solution.

Upon hearing this, Lu Xuan quickly looked up and nodded at Ye Xiang, "Worth a try."

Try?

Ye Xiang didn't see it that way. If it were before, he'd doubt if Lu Xuan really had the skill, but now, he was truly astounded by Lu Xuan's acupuncture expertise, completely awed by it.

Lu Xuan saying it's worth a try, Ye Xiang felt, meant Lu Xuan must be quite confident; otherwise, he wouldn't agree.

With this thought, Ye Xiang directly took Lu Xuan by the arm, "Let's go, the obstetrics building is next door, I'll go with you."

After saying this, he waved to Li Haoguo, "Old Li, take care of things here first, I'm taking Dr. Lu to the obstetrics department, there's something urgent that needs Dr. Lu."

Li Haoguo was stunned, obstetrics?

Watching Ye Xiang and Lu Xuan's backs disappear into the elevator, Li Haoguo smiled bitterly, you really don't treat Dr. Lu as an outsider, moving him wherever there's a problem.
