Chapter 67 Healing People and Curing Diseases
Although Xu Yourong was somewhat unconvinced, she couldn't find a reason to refute Li Yi.
Actually, upon closer reflection, what Wang Tao said earlier wasn't wrong.
Although this misdiagnosis was due to Song Yaqing concealing the fact that she was an alcoholic.
But even as a gynecologist, I can't make accurate judgments about patients' conditions without the machines.
It's clearly my own lack of skill that's to blame the patient.
Today, I first witnessed Li Yi's miraculous healing skills, effortlessly helping Ma Dongmei remove the blood stasis in her knee. Then, I watched as he, true to his word, accurately diagnosed Song Yaqing's illness.
At this moment, Xu Yourong was filled with countless emotions.
"Little Li...does traditional Chinese medicine cure every disease?"
Hearing Xu Yourong's sudden remark, Li Yi shook his head with a wry smile. "Sister Xu, what are you joking about? I'm just a traditional Chinese medicine practitioner, not a god. How could I possibly cure all diseases?"
"No! What I mean is, you can treat all types of illnesses. Doesn't traditional Chinese medicine have different specialties?"
Hearing this, Li Yi finally understood what Xu Yourong wanted to ask. "Sister Xu, traditional Chinese medicine emphasizes viewing the human body as an organic whole, stressing the improvement of an individual's overall condition by regulating qi and blood and balancing yin and yang, rather than just targeting local lesions."
Therefore, there is a saying: Traditional Chinese medicine treats the person, while Western medicine treats the disease.
"Healing people...curing diseases..."
Xu Yourong muttered to herself, a bitter look gradually appearing on her face, "What a fine way to treat people and illnesses! Compared to this, Western medicine really is inferior to traditional Chinese medicine."
Although Li Yi himself is a practitioner of traditional Chinese medicine, he has never looked down on Western medicine. "Sister Xu, you can't say that. Traditional Chinese medicine and Western medicine each have their strengths, and neither is necessarily better than the other."
Xu Yourong shook her head, her face full of bitterness, and said, "Alright, Xiao Li, stop trying to comfort me. I'm a gynecologist, and I can't even diagnose breast hyperplasia. I almost caused someone to have a mastectomy. I'm just a quack."
Seeing her looking so heartbroken, Wang Tao realized that what she had said earlier was a bit too serious. "Oh dear, Sister Xu, I'm just an amateur and don't know anything. I was just saying it casually."
You're an expert at the Central Hospital, how could you possibly be a quack?
"It's precisely because you're an outsider that you see things more clearly. Whether a doctor's skills are good or bad depends not on their title as an expert, but on the patients' word of mouth."
Seeing Xu Yourong becoming increasingly discouraged, Wang Tao didn't know how to persuade her.
Left with no other choice, she could only give Li Yi a wink.
Li Yi instantly understood. "Sister Xu, I'm not just trying to comfort you, but traditional Chinese medicine and Western medicine do have their strengths. Think about it, if traditional Chinese medicine were really that powerful, why do so many people think it's a scam?"
"This..." Xu Yourong was stunned upon hearing this.
She thought about it carefully before speaking, "It's probably because traditional Chinese medicine is quite difficult, and many people are not skilled enough, which leads to many misunderstandings."
"That's right!"
Li Yi nodded, a hint of helplessness on his face. "Traditional Chinese medicine is profound and requires a lot of experience to improve one's medical skills."
In reality, young people like me who have just graduated lack sufficient medical skills, so no patients are willing to trust us. Without access to patients, we cannot improve our medical skills. This creates a vicious cycle.
Western medicine is different. Even a recent college graduate, with some basic theoretical knowledge and sophisticated equipment, can accurately diagnose a patient's condition and then prescribe appropriate treatment.
As Li Yi spoke, he sincerely remarked, "It's really too difficult to cultivate an excellent TCM doctor."
But there are so many patients in the world, how long would it take to treat them all if we relied solely on traditional Chinese medicine? Therefore, Sister Xu, excellent Western medicine doctors like you are absolutely indispensable for ordinary people.
"Xiao Li, what you said is absolutely right!"
Li Yi's heartfelt words stirred Wang Tao's blood.
Upon hearing this, Xu Yourong's frustration gradually disappeared. "But if traditional Chinese medicine is so difficult, why are your medical skills so amazing, Xiao Li?"
"Oh dear, Sister Xu, Xiao Li is a genius, why do you insist on comparing yourself to him?"
Wang Tao's words stung Xu Yourong's heart once again.
"Cough cough! What genius or what, I'm just lucky."
Li Yi knew perfectly well that if it weren't for the system, all his skills would probably still be at level 1.
With such limited skills, let alone treating breast hyperplasia, I'm afraid I could only recover from a simple cold or fever faster than someone else recovers on their own.
Therefore, he is now increasingly grateful that he met Wang Tao and became a proud male technician.
Wang Tao added, "Sister Xu, from now on you will be responsible for treating the general public. If you encounter any difficult or complicated cases, then come to Xiao Li."
This time, Xu Yourong didn't refute. "Xiao Li, then if I encounter any patients I can't cure in the future, I'll come to you."
Li Yi nodded and readily agreed, "No problem, let's discuss and learn from each other."
On the massage bed, Song Yaqing lay quietly, having heard the entire conversation between the group.
The phrase "For all kinds of difficult and complicated diseases, find a technician" sounds rather strange.
......
After half an hour.
Li Yi removed the last acupuncture needle.
"Alright, Sister Song, your condition has basically stabilized. I'll prescribe another medicine for you later. If you take it for a few more days, you'll be completely cured."
"My idol's done already? Let me see!"
Seeing this, Wang Tao immediately stretched out her dragon claw hand and examined it herself. "Huh? The lump does seem to be gone. Xiao Li, you can feel it too."
"Peach, what nonsense are you spouting!"
Having Xu Yourong give me a massage was a last resort to treat my illness, but now that the treatment is over, how can I let others examine me so casually!
Song Yaqing, who was lying obediently on the massage bed, was so startled that she suddenly sat up in bed.
In an instant, the earth shook and the mountains trembled.
Excuse!
This person really doesn't treat themselves like an outsider at all.
After witnessing this scene, Li Yi quickly coughed, "Ahem, I'll go out and get the prescription filled. Sister Song, remember to put your clothes back on!"
Only after being reminded did Song Yaqing realize her current state.
She was stunned for a moment, then quickly grabbed the bathrobe on the bed and covered her chest, her pretty face turning as red as if it could bleed.
"Pah! You damned peach, look what you've done!"
Wang Tao smiled awkwardly, "Oh, idol, don't take it to heart. Xiao Li isn't that kind of lecherous person. Besides, he already saw what he needed to see during the treatment."
Is watching it while lying down the same as watching it while sitting?
Song Yaqing blushed, feeling both ashamed and angry.
However, since things had come to this point, there was nothing she could do about Wang Tao.
Fortunately, what Wang Tao said made a lot of sense. In that situation just now, Li Yi was able to remind himself and even turned around and left without looking back.
It seems that the other party is indeed not a lecherous person.
"Idol, how are you feeling now?"
Hearing Wang Tao's voice, Song Yaqing finally snapped out of her embarrassment and anger.
She carefully examined herself and found that the stinging pain in her chest had completely disappeared without a trace.
Moreover, I felt a warm, cozy sensation all over my body, which was incredibly comfortable.
