Chapter 499 - Constant Diagnosis
Chapter 499 Constant Diagnosis
After Zhong Yiyang persuaded him for quite a while, the middle-aged man reluctantly agreed to let Fang Qiu treat him.
Even so, as he walked to the consultation table and sat down, the middle-aged man still looked at Fang Qiu with his eyes still full of doubts.
“Hello, how are you doing?” Fang Qiu smiled without embarrassment.
“Em.” The middle-aged man nodded indifferently.
“Excuse me, what ails you?” Fang Qiu asked.
The middle-aged man said, “Nasal obstruction.”
“Are there any other symptoms?”
Fang Qiu continued to ask, “Like sneeze and asthma?”
“I don’t have asthma.” The middle-aged man shook his head and said, “It’s just the nasal obstruction, which causes nasal discharge and sneeze. Sometimes, my throat will be itchy and I cough.”
Fang Qiu asked again, “Do you sweat easily? How’s your physical strength?”
The patient replied, “Recently, it seems that if I exercise a little bit, I will sweat easily. If I exert too much strength, I will feel tired.”
Fang Qiu nodded and said, “All right. Open your mouth and stick your tongue out for me.”
The patient did as he was told.
Fang Qiu took a look.
The patient’s tongue was light red and its coating was light white.
Then Fang Qiu began to feel the pulse.
His pulse was light and feeble.
After feeling the pulse, Fang Qiu smiled slightly and said, “You got allergic rhinitis.”
The middle-aged man was stunned.
Of course, he knew what disease he got, but he didn’t tell Fang Qiu at all. How could Fang Qiu just know it by feeling his pulse and asking a few questions?
“It seems that this boy’s medical skills are really good.” Just when the middle-aged man was thinking to himself, Fang Qiu had already started to write a prescription.
“According to the diagnosis, the patient suffers from allergic rhinitis.”
“Prescription: Notopterygium 10g, Angelica 10g, Saposhnikovia 10g, Cimicifuga Foetida 10g, Astragalus 50g, Atractylodes 12g, Phellodendron 10g, Coptis Chinensis 3g, Codonopsis 10g, Tangerine Peel 10g, Flos Farfarae 12g, Baked Licorice 10g, and Ephedra 10g.”
“If there are yellow nasal discharge or sputum, add 30 grams of the dried wax gourd and 30 grams of Houttuynia Cordata.”
After finishing writing, Fang Qiu handed the prescription to the middle-aged man.
“You should get the medicine according to this prescription. There are a total of seven doses. If the symptoms disappear when you’re on medication, you must not stop taking the medicine. You have to continue to take the medicine to consolidate the effect of the drugs so that you will be cured.”
As he heard that, the middle-aged man took the prescription.
He turned his head and looked at the five doctors of brightness by his side in a daze.
Now he felt that Fang Qiu did have the ability to cure a patient. But he was still too young. Even if he wanted to trust Fang Qiu, he was still a little worried.
He immediately sent Fang Qiu’s prescription to Zhong Yiyang.
After taking over the prescription and taking a glance, Zhong Yiyang handed it to the other four examiners.
As the five of them finished checking, the prescription finally fell into Liu Ye’s hands.
“Do you write the prescription based on the classical prescription of the Earth-replenishing Field?” Liu Ye asked Fang Qiu with the prescription in his hand.
“It’s the Cold-controlling Soup from the Secret Book of Orchid Chamber.”
Fang Qiu answered, “The Cold-controlling Soup can cure a bad cold, nasal obstruction, cough, and asthma.”
Liu Ye nodded and continued to ask, “Okay. How long do you think the prescription you wrote will work?”
Fang Qiu replied, “After three doses, the symptoms will disappear. After seven doses, the patient should no longer suffer from the disease, and then use another seven doses to consolidate the effect of the medicine.”
As they heard that, the five doctors of brightness nodded with satisfaction and signed their names on the prescription one by one.
Then the prescription returned to Zhong Yiyang.
He signed his name and handed the prescription to the patient. Meanwhile, Zhong Yiyang said, “You can go to get the medicine. First, according to the prescription, you should get the seven doses and then get another seven doses when you recover.”
“Err…” After taking the prescription, the middle-aged man glanced at Fang Qiu and asked doubtfully, “Is there really nothing wrong with this prescription?”
“Don’t worry, it’s fine.”
Zhong Yiyang said with a smile, “This is the prescription that the five of us have confirmed together. We have all signed it. There is nothing wrong with it.”
“Okay.” The middle-aged man immediately felt relieved. Then he took the prescription and turned to leave happily.
Soon, the second patient came in.
He was also a middle-aged man in his 40s.
Unlike the last person, after he came in, he first turned to look at the five doctors of brightness and then looked at Fang Qiu.
However, as the middle-aged man saw Fang Qiu, he suddenly became excited.
“You are Fang Qiu? The one in the Young Chinese Medicine Doctor?” the middle-aged man asked excitedly as he ran to the consultation table.
“Yes, I am.” Fang Qiu nodded with a smile.
“Damn!” The middle-aged man immediately said, “I’m so lucky! I just want to be a volunteer here and then I actually meet you.”
Fang Qiu answered with a smile.
“Let me tell you, I’ve watched every episode of the Young Chinese Medicine Doctor. Your performance on the stage is so perfect. You’ll definitely be the champion, won’t you?” the middle-aged man asked.
“The show is not over yet, so is the competition.” Fang Qiu shook his head with a smile.
“You haven’t finished recording it yet?” The middle-aged man said in surprise, “I thought you had finished. I heard that you had cured the rich man—Yang Ningyuan recently. The one he got was a terminal disease. How did you cure him?”
“Well…” Fang Qiu smiled wryly.
“Oh, I’m so lucky.” Before Fang Qiu could answer, the middle-aged man patted his thigh hard and said, “I still didn’t expect to meet you. You’ve just cured Yang Ningyuan, and now you’re here to treat me. It seems that I’ll be treated the same way as the wealthy man.”
The more the middle-aged man talked about it, the more excited he became.
Fang Qiu was also very helpless.
Next to them, the five doctors of brightness couldn’t stand it anymore.
Zhong Yiyang reminded him, “Let’s see the patient first.”
Only then did the middle-aged man realize what he should do.
“Yes, yes, yes. Let’s do it.” While speaking, the middle-aged man put his hand on the desk and said to Fang Qiu, “You have to take a good look at me. I have always worshipped you.”
Fang Qiu smiled wryly as he heard that.
Fang Qiu asked, “Could you tell me what ails you?”
The middle-aged man thought for a moment and said, “Oh. In recent years, I often feel the swelling pain in the thumb joints of my right foot, but I haven’t paid much attention to it. After eating hot pot and drinking some beer yesterday, I suddenly felt that the joints of my thumb and ankle were red and swollen, and it was hot and painful. That’s why I came here.”
Fang Qiu said, “Open your mouth and let me see your tongue.”
The middle-aged man immediately opened his mouth and stuck out his tongue.
Fang Qiu took a closer look and said, “Your tongue is red and your coating is yellow and greasy.”
Then, he began to feel the pulse.
As a result, he found that his taut pulses were quicker.
After doing the Four Methods to Diagnose a Disease, Fang Qiu immediately picked up the pen and wrote a prescription.
“Prescription: Artemisia Capillaris 15g, Sophora Flavescens Ait 12g, Angelica Sinensis 12g, Notopterygium 10g, Common Anemarrhena 15g, Kudzuvine Root 15g, Polyporus 15g, Rhizoma Alismatis 15g, Saposhnikovia 10g, Radix Stephaniae Tetrandrae 20g, Yam Rhizome 30g, Atractylodes 12g, Phellodendron 12g, Scutellaria 10g, Cimicifuga Foetida 10g, and Baked Licorice 10g.”
After he wrote down his prescription, Fang Qiu handed it to the patient.
Because the middle-aged man knew the rules when he came to be a volunteer, he took the prescription, immediately smiled at Fang Qiu, and then walked to the five doctors of brightness.
After reading the prescription, the five examiners began to perform the Four Methods to Diagnose a Disease to the middle-aged man.
After the diagnosis, Liu Ye still took the prescription and asked, “What kind of classical prescription in the Earth-replenishing Field do you refer to when you write this prescription?”
Fang Qiu answered, “According to Angelica Pain-relieving Decoction of the Medical Invention’s Beriberi Theory, this decoction can treat damp-heat, sour joints, heavy shoulders, thoracic disorder, and the pain of the body. All the pain stretches to the feet, so it will be unbearable.”
The five examiners nodded with satisfaction.
As before, after each of them signed on the prescription, they asked the patient to take the prescription to get the medicine.
However, the patient who took the prescription didn’t leave right away. Instead, he ran to Fang Qiu and put the prescription back on Fang Qiu’s desk. He said, “It’s not easy to meet you. Please sign your name for me and I’ll take it home so that I can keep it well.”
Fang Qiu was stunned.
This was a true die-hard fan and also an older one.
Without thinking too much, Fang Qiu picked up the pen and signed his name.
“Thank you.” After picking up the prescription, the middle-aged man smirked and said, “Come on, I believe in you. You will definitely pass this test.”
Then, he turned around and left reluctantly.
Hearing this man’s words, the six people in the room couldn’t help but smile.
After a short while, the third patient came.
As before, Fang Qiu looked neither fast nor slow, but his speed was very fast, and he could see the symptoms very accurately.
His speed of seeing the patients and the precise prescriptions of diagnosis made the five doctors couldn’t help but exclaim secretly.
“This boy is really a monster.”
“He’s so proficient in the Four Methods to Diagnose a Disease and writing the prescription.”
“Is he really a freshman? Why didn’t he make any mistakes?”
Just as the doctors were still in shock, an old man holding a crutch walked leisurely to the door of the clinic’s backyard. He asked one of the guards at the back door, “How’s it going? How far has the examination progressed?”
“It went very smoothly. So far, he hasn’t made any mistakes. Now he has seen the sixth patient.” The guard in front of the door was a young man, who looked to be in his twenties. He usually did some chores in the Chinese Medicine Association. Today, he was transferred to the clinic to prevent Fang Qiu from being disturbed.
The old man’s eyes lit up and he said, “Oh? Then I’ll go in and take a look.”
After that, he was about to walk into the clinic.
However, the young man moved forward and stopped him, saying, “I don’t think it is appropriate. The examination between doctors of brightness and the candidate is private. You…”
The old man rolled his eyes and said, “What’s wrong with that? I am the president of the Chinese Medicine Association. I have someone to participate in the examination in my own territory. Can’t I even take a look?”
The young man smiled wryly.
While looking at the old man, the guard thought to himself, “You are really curious about everything!”
In fact, the old president was not full of curiosity. At least, he had his own plans.
As far as he could see, if Fang Qiu was really capable, maybe he could ask him to help solve a problem that he found it hard to work out.
“Get out of my way.” After rolling his eyes at the young man, the old man took a step forward and entered the clinic.
At this time, Fang Qiu just finished seeing the sixth patient.
Hearing the footsteps, everyone followed the sound and immediately saw the old man.
Zhong Yiyang asked, “What are you doing?”
In fact, not only him but also other doctors and Fang Qiu were very confused.
“Go on. I won’t disturb you. I’ll just sit aside and have a look.” As he said this, the old man walked aside, found a stool, and sat down in the corner.
