\"Taichong acupoint is also known as the 'Qi-eliminating acupoint'. It can relieve liver qi and clear liver fire. The Toutian Liangzhen method can guide qi downward and guide the liver fire rushing upward to the lower part of the body.\"

Chen Yang continued to perform acupuncture while explaining: "Combined with Xingjian acupoint (the Ying point of the liver meridian), it can directly reduce liver fire; Sanyinjiao (the intersection point of the liver, spleen and kidney meridians) can nourish blood and yin, and balance yin and yang."

As the acupuncture was performed, Ms. Su's tense shoulders gradually relaxed, her brows relaxed, and she even closed her eyes: "Strange... I felt a cool air rising from the soles of my feet, my chest was not so blocked, and my mind was not so confused..."

There was an exclamation of exclamation from the scene.

\"Doctor Chen,\"

Ms. Su opened her eyes, tears welling up in her eyes: "If I had met a doctor like you earlier, would I not have to suffer for so many years?"

Chen Yang shook his head gently: "Chinese medicine's diagnosis and treatment is like solving math problems. The problems are ever-changing, and the key is to find the most suitable solution. Your disease is not difficult to treat, but you need to break out of the fixed thinking of 'insomnia = yin deficiency'."

As he spoke, Chen Yang looked towards the camera and raised his voice a few notches: "Nowadays, many TCM practitioners are accustomed to using Western medical disease names to fit TCM syndrome differentiation. They prescribe Yin-nourishing drugs for insomnia and liver-soothing drugs for hypertension. This is missing the point. The soul of TCM is syndrome differentiation and treatment, which is 'one key opens one lock', not 'one type of disease uses one type of drug'."

"Well said, this is Chinese medicine..."

“Only true practitioners of traditional Chinese medicine can demonstrate the true level of traditional Chinese medicine…”

Many people are discussing this online.

Today's show really made everyone excited.

Before he knew it, the show was coming to an end. Tang Wenshan looked at the busy medical staff backstage and felt a lot of emotions in his heart.

Today's program not only created a miracle in ratings, but was more like a "battle for the restoration of reputation" of traditional Chinese medicine. Chen Yang used one real case after another to show the audience the unique value of traditional Chinese medicine in treating acute, severe, chronic and difficult diseases.

\"Doctor Chen,\"

The host took the microphone and asked Chen Yang: "Today's program allows us to see the profoundness of Chinese medicine, but some viewers also want to ask: Why do many people now think that Chinese medicine is 'slow', 'difficult', and 'mysterious'? "

Time was running out, and the program team no longer arranged any patients, so the remaining time was given to Chen Yang.

Chen Yang's eyes became deep when he heard this. He looked towards the camera, as if he was staring at the audience in front of the countless screens:

\"Chinese medicine has never been a 'slow doctor', but we have lost the ability to be 'fast'.\"

\"The Mahuang Decoction in the Treatise on Febrile Diseases can make you sweat and reduce high fever; the Tongmai Sini Decoction, if properly boiled and taken, can restore yang and save the patient in half a day. The "slowness" of traditional Chinese medicine is because many traditional Chinese medicine practitioners are afraid to use heavy doses and strong drugs, and are afraid to use them, which makes patients feel that "it is ineffective."\"

\"The difficulty of Chinese medicine lies in the flexibility of syndrome differentiation and treatment, and the deep understanding of human nature, material nature, and natural laws. It is not an assembly line-style "prescribing medicine for the right symptoms", but requires doctors to mix different "colors" according to the "complexion" of each patient, just like painters.\"

\"As for 'mystery', that's because we haven't explained Chinese medicine clearly.\"

Chen Yang raised the silver needle in his hand, "Behind a needle and a handful of grass is the philosophical wisdom of Yin and Yang and the Five Elements, the cognition of life that is the unity of man and nature, and the experience summary of thousands of clinical verifications. These things are not mysterious, but we need someone to explain them in a language that modern people can understand."

At this point, Chen Yang turned to several experts: "Director Sun and Director Zhao, both of whom are TCM practitioners with rich clinical experience, should know best that the biggest crisis facing TCM right now is not its efficacy, but that 'TCM is not like TCM.'"

\"We wear white coats, use Western medical diagnostic terminology, and prescribe Chinese medicine based on the 'active ingredients', but we forget that the soul of Chinese medicine is 'treatment based on syndrome differentiation' and 'people-oriented'.\"

\"Like Ms. Su today, if you only prescribe sleeping pills for 'insomnia' and prescribe yin-nourishing medicine for 'yin deficiency', you will never be able to cure her illness. Only by seeing her professional pressure as a teacher, her worries and anxiety as a mother, and the dynamic pathogenesis of 'liver depression turning into fire' in her body, can we truly solve the problem.\"

Sun Mingde's face flushed red, and he lowered his head and remained silent, remembering that he had just used Western medical names for the disease.

Zhao Hailin raised his head, a gleam of light flashed in his eyes: "Doctor Chen, what you said is exactly the confusion of our generation of Chinese medicine practitioners. We have learned a lot of Western medicine knowledge, but it seems that we have lost the 'roots' of Chinese medicine."

Chen Yang nodded, and his tone softened: "It's not about abandoning Western medicine, but about letting Chinese and Western medicine return to their respective places. Chinese medicine's 'look, smell, ask, and feel' and Western medicine's 'physical and chemical examinations' are like a person's two eyes, neither of which can be missing. But what ultimately determines the treatment plan should be the dialectical thinking of Chinese medicine, not the disease names of Western medicine."

\"As I said before, Chinese medicine must first be 'Chinese'. While innovating, it should not be exclusive or abandon its own characteristics, but should maintain its own characteristics and advantages and absorb the strengths of others. Only in this way can it forge its own path in the tide of modern medicine.\"

After Chen Yang finished speaking, there was silence in the studio for a moment, and then thunderous applause broke out again.

In front of the TV, many traditional Chinese medicine practitioners couldn't help but sigh that Chen Yang said a lot of things they wanted to say in the show today. This young man is amazing.

As he was speaking, the host received a message from Tang Wenshan and said with a smile: "I have good news for the audience and Dr. Chen. Grandma Zhang has taken the medicine and her temperature has dropped. She even said she was hungry and wanted to drink millet porridge!"

This news was like a bomb, instantly igniting the emotions of the entire audience.

\"real?\"

He Huimin exclaimed: "Grandma Zhang, who is in the late stage of pancreatic cancer, actually has an appetite?"

The host smiled and said, "Really, the news is absolutely true."

Several experts were moved. The patient regained his appetite, which was great news, indicating that the medicine was effective.

Three hours, it has only been three hours so far.

"Who dares to say that Chinese medicine practitioners are slow?" the host said with a smile.

Time passed quietly, and before I knew it, it was almost noon.

“Dear audience, this episode is coming to an end. We welcome your support for the program and your love for Chinese medicine…”

This episode also came to an end with the host's voice.

"Thank you, Dr. Chen Yang, and all the TCM experts, for letting us truly feel the charm of TCM. I hope TCM can get better and better, so that patients and friends can have more choices..."

"call!"

Sun Mingde let out a long sigh. This program made Sun Mingde feel as if he had gone through a long psychological process.
