Chapter 758 (1/2)
Xiao Chen could only sit there and drink tea. About ten weeks later, Xiao Chen and his three people saw that his fourth aunt was pushing an old man in a wheelchair.
The old man was in his eighties and looked as thin as a log.
Who is this old man?
Xiao Chen certainly didn't know him, but he probably saw something from the old man's face.
Chen Qian is not familiar with her fourth aunt, so she doesn't know who the old man is.
”Dr. Xiao, I'm sorry to keep you waiting.” The fourth aunt speaks Mandarin very well. She belongs to the very fluent kind and can communicate well.
”Fourth aunt, don't you know this is your father?”
”Did you see it?”
The fourth aunt was so surprised that the young man guessed that the old man she was pushing was her father.
”I know how to look.”
Soon after the fourth aunt pushed the old man, Xiao Chen knew why the fourth aunt wanted him to come. There was really a reason.
The old man, nearly 80 years old, is the father of the fourth aunt. Before his selection, her father was a member of Haojiang district. It was when her father dealt with the gambling king that he realized the fourth aunt.
Now the fourth aunt has brought her father here too early. She must have no worries about food and clothing.
However, when people get old, they begin to suffer more.
Even if the fourth aunt is too rich to invite many famous doctors, money may not be able to let these famous doctors cure her father.
Her father developed left trigeminal neuralgia ten years ago, that is, when he was nearly 70 years old. After treatment, he improved and appeared once in the next two years.
Now a week ago, there was no obvious inducement for left facial pain. After seeing other doctors, it had no effect. Now it's just for the family's health care doctor to watch.
When Aunt Si went to the hospital to see her husband today, she learned that her husband had acupuncture twice only under the treatment of Dr. Xiao. The effect was so obvious. She met Xiao Chen and Chen Qian at lunch and just invited Xiao Chen to come over.
When Xiao Chen examined his fourth aunt's father, now the old man has a persistent attack of pain on his left face, lasting for tens of minutes each time. He has poor sleep and poor appetite.
After Xiao Chen checked the old man's condition, Xiao Chen also learned that the old man had 30 years of coronary heart disease, so according to his condition, according to the just check and TCM dialectics, this belongs to facial wind pain.
It belongs to hyperactivity of liver Yang and disturbance of wind heat.
In traditional Chinese medicine, the so-called facial wind pain is caused by wind cold, wind heat and other evils invading the facial meridians, or yin deficiency and internal heat of the body, stagnation of blood stasis and phlegm, compression of meridians and so on.
In western medicine, this is called trigeminal neuralgia.
Trigeminal neuralgia is the most common neuropathy. The main causes of recurrent severe paroxysmal pain are the recurrent facial paralysis in the facial trigeminal region. The incidence rate is 52.2 / 100 thousand in China, and slightly more than that in men. The incidence rate of this disease can increase with age.
Trigeminal neuralgia mostly occurs in the middle-aged and elderly, more on the right than on the left.
The disease is characterized by sudden onset, sudden stop, lightning like, knife like, burning like, intractable and intolerable severe pain in the distribution area of the head and face trigeminal nerve.
Talking, washing your face, brushing your teeth, or even walking can lead to paroxysmal severe pain. The pain lasts for several seconds or minutes, and the pain occurs periodically. The intermittent period is the same as that of normal people.
The old man is not young, and his physical fitness is declining rapidly in all aspects, so the wind cold evil poison outside is easy to invade his body.
The old man's situation has been repeated for ten years and has not been cured. This is a difficult and complicated disease to treat.
When Xiao Chen finished reading it for her father and her face didn't change, the fourth aunt hurriedly asked, ”Dr. Xiao, don't you know my father's situation?”
