Pulse diagnosis requires quietly feeling the patient's pulse condition, especially for critical patients like Tong He, even more so.
It's not sothing that can be rushed, nor is it urgent.
"The other hand."
While Lu Xuan was speaking, Tong He extended his left hand.
Lu Xuan's three fingers gently fell on the location of Cun, Guan, and Chi position.
After a while, Lu Xuan finally removed his hand from Tong He's wrist.
Only then did Tong He retract his hand after Lu Xuan's pulse diagnosis ended.
"How is it?"
Seeing the pulse diagnosis conclude, Ji Xiuwen couldn't help but ask.
The probability of esophageal cancer is trendously high, particularly in this country, where the incidence and mortality rates for esophageal cancer have always remained high. He also wanted to know whether his exceptional old classmate had any good thod for esophageal cancer.
Lu Xuan glanced at him: "The tongue is light red, with little coating, the pulse is thin, do you want to try looking at it?"
Ji Xiuwen rolled his eyes dramatically, willing to try for general mild illnesses.
When it cos to diagnosing esophageal cancer, he barely wants to try.
It's not that he doesn't want to; it's purely a waste of ti.
With this disease, not to ntion asking him to try, even so highly skilled old Traditional Chinese dicine doctors seeing it might not co up with a good solution at the mont.
Moreover, he was just an intern Traditional Chinese dicine doctor who hadn't graduated long ago.
As for Lu Xuan, Ji Xiuwen no longer regards this old classmate as a normal person.
No need to compare with a genius; it's purely self-inflicted frustration.
And it's a dinsional reduction attack.
Ji Xiuwen doesn't think he has masochistic tendencies, and naturally wouldn't think about competing with Lu Xuan.
What he thinks more is how to learn more from his old classmate in a shorter ti, and even if he learns just one-tenth of the skills, it would be enough for him to dominate.
"Forget it, I don't have that ability." Ji Xiuwen directly refused.
Lu Xuan didn't ask Su Kenan either. Compared to Ji Xiuwen, Su Kenan is still an undergraduate and knows more.
"You probably don't know much about this aspect, so let first talk about so records of Traditional Chinese dicine regarding esophageal cancer." Lu Xuan said blandly.
Ji Xiuwen imdiately straightened up, looking serious.
Su Kenan also tilted her head, her eyes falling on Lu Xuan.
Lu Xuan took a breath and began to speak: "In Traditional Chinese dicine, esophageal cancer falls under the category of 'strangulation obstruction,' generally occurring due to insufficient functions of the organs and qi and blood, along with external evils, or inner generation of foulness, causing qi stagnation, phlegm obstruction, blood stasis, etc., intertwining in the esophagus, leading to cancer over ti, obstructing the esophagus.
The nature of esophageal cancer is fundantally deficient with an outward excess; the disease location is in the esophagus, under the jurisdiction of stomach qi, closely related to the liver, spleen, and kidneys.
Due to dysfunctional liver, spleen, and kidney functions, causing qi, blood, and phlegm intertwining, leading to dryness and blood deficiency, resulting in esophageal narrowing, and dryness of the esophagus is the basic pathogenesis of 'strangulation obstruction.'
Early-stage esophageal cancer leans towards qi congestion, blood stasis isn't too severe, often showing strong evil while the right isn't dwindling, treatnt mainly focuses on dispelling evil, therapy revolves around regulating qi, resolving phlegm, and alleviating depression; mid-stage involves fluid loss and heat knots, with phlegm-blood blockade, requiring nourishnt of yin, dispersing knots, resolving phlegm, and promoting blood circulation; late-stage involves fluid depletion and blood deficiency, qi deficiency with weak yang, focusing on supporting the right, cautiously using products to dispel evil and break knots, and so forth.
Treating esophageal cancer initially focuses on outward excess, mainly targeting the symptoms, using regulating qi, resolving phlegm, and eliminating stasis as the thod, possibly supplented by products that nourish yin, blood, and moisten dryness.
Later-stage focuses on fundantal deficiencies, mainly supporting the right with thods that nourish yin, blood, and boost qi and warm yang, possibly supplented by dicines to regulate qi, resolve phlegm, and eliminate stasis.
Clinically, attention must be paid to protecting fluids while treating symptoms, avoiding excessive use of dispersing and aromatic products; when treating the root, it's essential to protect stomach qi, avoiding excessive use of cloying products.
It's known that with stomach qi there is life, without stomach qi there is death."
At this point, Lu Xuan emphasized slightly: "Treating this disease, stomach qi is key, this is the fundantal for patients to live."
"With stomach qi there is life, without stomach qi there is death?"
Ji Xiuwen subconsciously frowned.
Lu Xuan patiently explained: "What is terd 'stomach qi' is actually the overall function of the spleen and stomach, and the spleen and stomach are among the most crucial organs in the human body, the source of qi and blood generation.
The human body's growth and developnt, and all nutritional substances necessary for sustaining life, depend on the spleen and stomach.
If the spleen and stomach function weaken, the body's growth, developnt, and tabolism will be severely affected.
Thus, ancient health practitioners particularly emphasized the importance of 'stomach qi.'
The most famous ancient dical practitioner, Hua Tuo, once said, 'The stomach is the fundantal of a person; when the stomach qi is strong, all five organs and six visceras are robust...'
In the book 'Inner Canon,' which you have read, there's a line, 'Without stomach qi, one turns the wrong way, and the wrong way leads to death.'
This shows that for health and longevity, one must preserve stomach qi.
In conclusion, the spleen and stomach are the most important organs, adjusting the spleen and stomach is one of the primary asures for disease prevention, treatnt, health preservation, and longevity."
After saying this, Lu Xuan paused, seeing a few still sowhat perplexed people, continued: "To put it simply, stomach qi is the sensation of hunger. When an infant is hungry, they would cry loudly; when a child is hungry, they would clamor for food; when an adult is hungry, they would actively seek food; when a patient demands food, they are nearing recovery. These situations are all manifestations of hunger.
Therefore, the human body's biggest weakness is its poor digestive absorption capacity, which is also the most susceptible to damage, thus maintaining a strong sense of hunger is a prerequisite for survival.
Preserving a bit of stomach qi grants a portion of life, that's the logic."
The easily understandable explanation made Ji Xiuwen suddenly enlightened, while also gaining a new understanding of his old classmate's profound knowledge.
From the mont he entered the Health Center, his old classmate seed to have completely transford.
