Chapter 225 Kidney Stones
"Any other requests?" Qin Qing also glanced at the time. This was the longest live broadcast she had ever had.
"No, that's not right. Um, Doctor Qin, can I buy medicine from you? I heard from netizens that the medicines here are very effective..." "The Very Fat Very Fat Very Fat Panda" asked embarrassedly, scratching his head.
"Of course, what medicine do you want to buy?"
"Just the kind of medicine that strengthens the body, and..."
The girl looked around and realized that no one was eavesdropping, so she quickly said in a low voice, "Qi Yang Shen Dan, my eldest brother is in this condition now... I'm worried about him, so it's safer to buy one. I don't know when they will give me a little nephew or niece."
Qin Qing also looked at her with amusement. This girl was very clever and had revealed all the secrets of her brother without realizing it.
"It's better to let them take good care of themselves for a while. Getting pregnant too early will make the child weak."
"Got it. Thank you, Dr. Qin. I'm fine now. I'll transfer the money to the backstage." "The Very Fat Very Fat Very Fat Panda" hung up the live broadcast contentedly.
Qin Qing also exhaled and looked towards the live broadcast room. "Next, we will connect with our second fan, Xu Shihan."
The connection was quickly connected. The person on the other end was a slightly plump man in his thirties with a round and gentle face. His forehead was broad with slight wrinkles, showing the traces of time.
"Hello, Dr. Qin, my name is Xu Shihan. I have watched your live broadcast and know that you are a very good Chinese medicine practitioner. Could you please help me..."
He did not directly say what disease he had, but wanted to test whether Qin Qing had the ability to diagnose diseases.
Qin Qing also saw what he was thinking, and she didn't mind. This was human nature, and she understood it, so she didn't beat around the bush and said directly, "Shuiyou's eyes are dark as ink, his eyes are waxy yellow, his brows are tightly furrowed, and he is shrouded in sorrow. His face is pale and dull, and beads of sweat are oozing from his forehead. His tongue is thick and greasy with a yellowish coating, and his voice is hoarse when he speaks, revealing that he has been exhausted both physically and mentally recently, and his qi and blood are not flowing smoothly."
"If I'm not wrong, the water friend should have kidney stones."
"As a kidney stone moves through the kidney or ureter, it may cause sudden, stabbing pain. This pain is usually located in the lower back or flank, and sometimes radiates to the lower abdomen, perineum, or inner thigh. The pain may range from mild discomfort to extreme pain that makes it difficult for the patient to stand or walk."
"Along with the pain, patients may also experience nausea and vomiting, gastrointestinal reactions caused by the pain. Or blood in the urine, which may be pink or red. Frequent or urgent urination, but the amount of urine is small. Symptoms of urinary tract infection, such as fever and painful urination."
"The intensity and duration of this pain vary from person to person, depending on the size and location of the stone and whether it causes urinary tract obstruction. However, there are three major pains that are unbearable for ordinary people: toothache, childbirth, and kidney stones. I'm afraid that the stone in your case has reached the end of the ureter and is almost entering the urethra. It will come out after taking medicine for a period of time."
"No, Doctor Qin, I've been holding out for more than a week. I'm really scared of the pain. Is there any medicine that works immediately? I really can't stand it anymore."
Looking at the distressed request from a man in his thirties, Qin Qing kindly told him his treatment plan.
"Drink more water and jump more."
"I have a stone-removing soup here. Please write down the prescription. You can boil it yourself later. I guarantee that you will have the stones removed within two days."
"Saltpeter, Linderae strychnifolia, Corydalis yanhusuo, Safflower, Drynaria fortunei, Paeonia lactiflora, Ginkgo biloba, Prunus persica, Cinnamon bark, Lysimachia chinensis, Lygodium japonicus, Alisma orientalis, Pyrrosia dahurica... This is a prescription for clearing dampness and heat, and relieving stranguria and expelling stones. Take one dose in the morning and evening. Soak the medicine in water for 30 minutes and then boil it. Take 250 ml each time. Boil it twice in total and take it in the morning and evening."
"In this prescription, saltpeter is caused by damp-heat accumulation, which is formed by boiling urine. When sand and stone block the blood vessels, the waist pain will be severe and unbearable. Saltpeter is used in the prescription, which is bitter and slightly salty, and can soften and disperse lumps. According to the Shennong's Herbal Classic, it can dissolve 72 kinds of stones, so it is used. Linderae odoratum and Corydalis yanhusuo can regulate qi and relieve pain; safflower and peach kernel can promote blood circulation, dissolve blood stasis and break up lumps; Centella asiatica, Ligusticum wallichii, Alisma orientalis, Pyrrosia dahurica and Neijin can promote diuresis, relieve stranguria and expel stones, and cinnamon can be used to dissolve qi and promote water circulation, and bone-breaking can be added to strengthen the kidneys and waist to help expel stones."
"Well, just listen to this. I'm just briefly explaining the effects of this prescription."
After listening to it, Xu Shihan showed a look of gratitude on his face. He did not expect that Dr. Qin not only had an accurate diagnosis, but also could give such a detailed prescription and explanation. He quickly took out a pen and paper and carefully wrote down the prescription, fearing that he would miss any details.
"Dr. Qin, thank you so much."
There was a slight tremor in Xu Shihan's voice. There was nothing he could do. The kidney stones were really painful when they attacked. It hurt so much that he wanted to bang his head against the wall.
"I'll go buy some medicine right now. Also, 'Drink more water and jump more.'" Even if he can't walk upright, he still tries to jump.
Qin Qing also smiled and explained: "Drinking more water can increase urine volume, which helps flush stones and reduce the deposition of stones in the urinary tract. And 'jumping more' is to use appropriate amount of exercise, especially jumping exercise, which can help stones move downward, and sometimes help stones fall off from the ureter and be excreted from the body."
Xu Shihan nodded to show his understanding: "I understand, Dr. Qin. I will try to drink more water and do some proper exercise. But, can this prescription really take effect within two days?"
Qin Qing also answered firmly: "This prescription is formulated based on the theory and experience of traditional Chinese medicine, and it has a certain effect on expelling stones. However, each person's constitution and condition are different, so the effect will vary. The minimum is within two days, and there are also people with special constitutions who see immediate results after taking the medicine. I don't know which one you are."
"Thank you, Dr. Qin. I'll go get the medicine right away." Xu Shihan nodded gratefully.
[By the way, I also had kidney stones. It was really painful and I just wanted to pop my eyeballs. ]
[Can't the stones be broken up with laser? My uncle had it broken up with laser, and after taking some medicine, he recovered in no time.]
[Generally speaking, kidney stones with a diameter of less than 10-20 mm can be treated with laser lithotripsy. If the stone is too large, other treatments may be required first.]
[Oh my god, when I think about having such a big stone in my kidney, my soul hurts.]
[If you have kidney stones, can you still use your kidneys? In that aspect...]
[What is that about? What does it have to do with the kidneys?]
【Well...】
Xu Shihan, who was originally in a hurry to log off, saw this sentence and his mind moved. He immediately thought of himself and coughed awkwardly.
"Doctor Qin, I want to buy some medicine, the Qiyang Shen Pill, and the one that girls use to lose weight. Give me one too!"
His wife has been clamoring to lose weight, but she just can't control her mouth and move her legs. Now that there are weight-loss pills, she's afraid she'll have to buy nice clothes again. Although he feels a little sorry for the money, he only has this one wife, so he can't not spoil anyone.
