Great Chinese Doctor

Chapter 135 Cirrhosis of the Liver

The person who gave the most tips was an old Chinese medicine practitioner, and there were also some other Chinese medicine practitioners who wanted to acquire knowledge. They didn't ask too many questions, after all, they all knew that this was someone else's trump card for making a living.

Of course the most important thing is that Qin Qing doesn’t have time either.

She was now waiting for the third friend, and she didn't know if she could get through this time. So she said to everyone, "Okay, five minutes have passed. Let's get through to the third friend. If she still can't get through this time, I'll choose the next one."

She sent an invitation to "Hui Hui-ed", and this time it went smoothly and I got to meet her in person.

"I'm sorry, I was called away just now and didn't have time to tell you. I won't do it again next time."

Opposite me was a man in his thirties. His face was pale and he looked a little depressed.

But he seemed to be a very polite person, and his eyes were full of sincerity when he said that apology.

Seeing him like this, Qin Qing said helplessly, "It's okay. Shuiyou, you don't look well, why don't you go to the hospital..."

《Hui Hui-ed》 She smiled bitterly and shook her head, "To be honest, I have no money. I have already owed a lot of debts for my medical treatment. I don't know if I will live long enough to pay it back."

Qin Qing was not a person who gave up on himself. Hearing his tone, he felt a little reluctant, "Friend Shui, can you let me see clearly and remember his face?"

"Okay. Sorry to trouble you."

《慧慧-ed》Nodding, she took out her phone and took a careful photo of her face...

"I see that you have a dark complexion, jaundice on your skin, spider nevi on your face and neck, and symptoms of liver palms, ascites, weight loss, and fatigue. Liver disease affects the spleen. If the spleen is not functioning properly, you will have abdominal distension and loose stools."

"At the same time, the symptoms of nausea and vomiting are caused by the decline of the digestive system. There is also a tendency to bleed, and it is due to bleeding in the liver. By the way, spider nevi are not only on the face and neck, but also on the upper chest, shoulders, etc. The blood vessels dilate and form spider-like hemangiomas. So-"

"So you have...early-stage liver cirrhosis!" Fortunately, there's still time.

"Liver cirrhosis is a term used in Western medicine. In traditional Chinese medicine theory, liver cirrhosis is often referred to as 'liver and spleen accumulation' or 'liver accumulation'."

"Traditional Chinese medicine believes that this condition is caused by a variety of factors, such as liver qi stagnation, spleen and stomach weakness, internal dampness and heat, which in turn affect the liver and spleen functions, leading to poor blood circulation and accumulation of qi and blood."

"TCM treatment of liver cirrhosis focuses on overall regulation, and uses traditional Chinese medicine, acupuncture, massage and other methods to achieve the therapeutic goals of soothing the liver and regulating qi, strengthening the spleen and stomach, and promoting blood circulation and removing blood stasis."

Although he didn't understand what the host said, he understood the word "cirrhosis of the liver".

"Yes. My disease is indeed cirrhosis of the liver." [Hui Hui-ed] He covered his forehead to prevent people from seeing the moisture in his eyes. The aura around him gradually became suppressed, making it difficult for him to breathe.

"Doctor Qin, can my disease be cured? No need to cure it, just let me live a few more years..."

His children are still young. If something unexpected happens to him during this illness, he dare not imagine what his children’s future will be like. He only knows that it will definitely be very difficult.

"In fact, although cirrhosis is a serious liver disease, if it is not treated promptly and appropriately, it may lead to liver failure, which in turn may cause a series of complications."

"These complications include ascites, hepatic encephalopathy, esophageal varicose vein bleeding, etc. These complications may be life-threatening. The mortality rate of patients with cirrhosis is relatively high when their liver function is severely damaged."

"However, cirrhosis is not incurable. Through comprehensive treatment measures such as drug therapy, lifestyle adjustments, nutritional support, avoidance of alcohol and harmful substances, and possible liver transplantation, patients' prognosis and quality of life can be significantly improved."

"Of course, my Chinese medicine is still a little bit successful in this regard."

"And the prognosis for cirrhosis depends on many factors, including the cause, the severity of the disease, the presence of complications, the patient's overall health, and whether they receive appropriate treatment."

"Therefore, early diagnosis, timely treatment and good medical management are crucial to improve the prognosis of patients with cirrhosis."

"But your case isn't serious."

"I believe that many doctors, when they learn that it is liver cirrhosis, should not use supplements purely due to deficiency of the body's energy, otherwise the phlegm and blood stasis will become worse. They should not attack too much due to excess of evil, as doing so will only damage the Qi and have no effect at all."

"You can't make a hasty decision, you can only take your time."

"Well, I'll prescribe some medicine for you first, and you write it down."

"Dangshen, stir-fried Atractylodes macrocephala ... costusroot, Artemisia capillaris, Chinese angelica, white peony root, Cyperus rotundus, bergamot, hawthorn, Zedoariae rhizome, raw oyster, Vaccaria segetalis..."

"After drinking it for a while, the prescription can be changed. Bupleurum can soothe the liver, regulate qi and relieve stagnation; Huangling is bitter and cold, clears heat and promotes bile secretion, and is good at relieving liver and gallbladder heat when combined with Bupleurum; cicada shells, bombyx batryticatus, turmeric, coptis chinensis and other drugs can be used to treat liver and gallbladder heat stagnation, heat toxicity and blood stasis. At the same time, raw rehmannia, moutan bark, red peony root and other drugs can be added to clear heat and cool blood, and salvia miltiorrhiza, chuanxiong, safflower, peach kernel and other drugs can be added to promote blood circulation and remove blood stasis. These drugs can help improve the symptoms of patients with cirrhosis and promote the recovery of liver function.

"Please note that Chinese medicine treatment of liver cirrhosis requires long-term persistence, and the prescription needs to be adjusted according to changes in your condition. At the same time, you also need to pay attention to the adjustment of diet and lifestyle habits, maintain a good work and rest schedule, and avoid overwork."

"You must remember that Chinese medicine treatment of liver cirrhosis is a long-term process. You cannot rush for results. You must be patient and I believe you will gradually get better."

"Hui Hui-ed" was so excited that she couldn't help herself: "That's great..."

"Thank you, Dr. Qin. I will follow your instructions for treatment." He nodded firmly, with a glimmer of hope in his eyes.

Qin Qing also nodded and asked, "Do you have anything else to ask?"

"Well...it's okay." Hui Hui-ed thought about it, but ultimately didn't ask.

Qin Qingye also saw that he was hesitant to speak, but she did not ask further questions. Since the other party was hesitant about whether to speak, she respected his choice. After all, everyone's privacy and concerns are different. As a doctor, Qin Qingye should respect the privacy of patients.

"Okay, that's it. If you have any questions, feel free to contact me. Remember, treating cirrhosis is a long process that requires patience and persistence. Maintaining a positive attitude will be of great help to your recovery." Qin Qing also reminded again.

After the other party's live broadcast connection is disconnected, the netizens will start to have fun.

[Oh oh oh oh hurry up, I want to buy some pills...]

[I called all my aunts and uncles to help me draw, but I don’t believe that I won’t get any. ]

[Hehe, I am the captain of the professional security team. Now they are all drawing lots for me. I must buy the Qiyang Shen Dan. I want to be a hero.]

[Pfft——You are all weirdos. If you want to buy medicine, just go to the pharmacy that Qin Yi cooperates with. It’s not like they don’t sell it! ]

[You don't know this, right? Doctor Qin said that the ones sold in pharmacies and hospitals are not as effective as the ones she made herself.]

[Tsk, men~]
