Chapter 835: Treating Kidney Stone

Chapter 834 - Treating Kidney Stone

When Sun Changle, Su Tao, and Yue Zun came out, they saw that Sun Changle’s friend was sitting on the ground in pain as he held his abdomen.

Seeing this scene, Sun Changle was shocked as Su Tao had just mentioned that something would happen to his friend, and it had come true in just a blink of an eye.

That person’s name was Fei Mingyang, and he was a famous figure in Beijing, who built his wealth through real estate. He was a generous person, and he was also fond of doing charity. He had a habit of participating in charity, which was how Sun Changle got to know him. Their relationship wasn’t deep, but from how he came over to greet mentioned that he was a good person.

“Physician Su, you have to help out in this one. I’ll owe you one for that!”

In the past, Sun Changle had treated Su Tao as a junior. Due to the fact that he was a Neurologist with western medicine background, he did not have too much faith in TCM. He was completely different from Yue Zun, who believed in TCM.

The reason why he was so polite to Su Tao was all because of Yue Zun, and he didn’t think much about TCM in the past. Although they were pretty skilled when it came to healthcare, he did not think that TCM was better than western medicine when it came to emergency treatment.

The reason why he suggested for Su Tao to take a look at his friend was just a joke. Although it wasn’t obvious, Su Tao could sense it clearly, and he did not feel great about it.

However, Sun Changle still gave Su Tao a good impression. His prejudice for TCM was because he studied western medicine, and Sun Changle wasn’t targeting him personally.

“Let out a way everyone!” Su Tao called the audience to move back to give some space to the patient.

When Sun Changle saw that Su Tao was willing to help, he was still feeling doubtful that Su Tao could resolve this matter.

The friends who were eating together with Fei Mingyang had already called for an ambulance, and they did not pay much attention to Su Tao. They had no idea that Su Tao, Yue Zun, and Sun Changle were National Healers.

Yue Zun then started getting the crowd to move back. He wasn’t the same as Sun Changle as he had personally witnessed Su Tao’s medical skills. The patient seemed to be in pain, and if Su Tao was willing to help, that meant that Su Tao was confident in treating the patient.

After the crowd was dispersed, Su Tao got Fei Mingyang to lay flat on the ground. Although Fei Mingyang still had some consciousness, he was already sweating from the pain as he held onto his stomach and groaned in pain.

“Relax!” Su Tao placed his medical box on the ground as he retrieved his silver needles and inserted them into Fei Mingyang’s acupoints.

In a split second, Fei Mingyang could feel a warm current flowing from his abdomen.

The Huiyang Acupoint was often used in the Taiyin Kidney Meridian of the Foot. It was located beneath the protruding spot of the second lumbar vertebra, roughly 1.5 inch to the sides. It’s often used to treat kidney inflammation, kidney pain, sexual functions, irregular menses, and waist soft tissue injuries.

The reason why Su Tao persuaded Sun Changle not to force Fei Mingyang to drink anymore was mainly because Su Tao could tell that Fei Mingyang had kidney stones through his observation diagnosis.

Logically speaking, doctors would advise patients with kidney stones to drink more water, because water would dilute the urine and prevent the kidney stone from forming. At the same time, it could slow down the speed that the kidney stone was growing. At the same time, large quantities of water could aid small kidney stones to be easily discharged, and it was a commonly used method to discharge the kidney stones in our bodies.

But if the kidney stone was at a certain size, it would be advisable not to drink too much water.

When the kidney stone exceeds 1 centimeter, it could no longer be discharged through urine, and drinking water wouldn’t help the patient. On the contrary, drinking too much water could increase the difficulty of the treatment, increase the water content in the kidney and worsen the condition.

Fei Mingyang’s condition wasn’t precisely that. His kidney stone wasn’t too big in size, but he was born with a narrow ureter and urine obstruction, which resulted in his acute kidney stone condition today.

In TCM books, kidney stones were also called stone strangury. And to treat, acupuncture would have to be performed on the Huiyang, Sanyinjiao, and Jusanli Acupoints to stop main and promote the discharge of kidney stone.

If an ordinary physician were to perform acupuncture on those three acupoints, there wouldn’t be much effect except alleviating the condition. But Su Tao had the Heavenseizing Hands, so it was completely different. Along with a gentle force coursing into Fei Mingyang’s body through the needle, his expression began to ease up as his breathing had also returned to normal.

When the crowd saw this scene, exclamations sounded out as they could tell that Su Tao made use of his acupuncture to alleviate Fei Mingyang’s condition. Thus, everyone began to discuss how lucky Fei Mingyang was to encounter a divine physician.

Su Tao might be young, but his acupuncture skills were simply extraordinary. Everyone in the surrounding were experienced, and in addition to how quick Su Tao’s treatment was, they did not treat Su Tao lightly because of his age.

“What’s wrong with me?” Fei Mingyang’s complexion returned back to normal as the abdomen pain also disappeared.

“Old Fei, you’re pretty lucky that Little Su is around.” Sun Changle rejoiced as he continued, “As for you condition, let him be the one to tell you.”

Sun Changle immediately claimed the credit for Su Tao.

“Mr. Fei’s condition isn’t serious, and you must have been treating it for years. When the ambulance comes, you can just perform a checkup in the hospital. If you trust me, then you can head to the Three Flavour Hall in Beijing tomorrow. We have many professional physicians there, and they can treat your condition easily.” There were many people in the surrounding, so Su Tao did not reveal Fei Mingyang’s condition in public.

As Sun Changle and Yue Zun knew about it, they did not ask about the details.

Roughly ten minutes later when the ambulance arrived, Fei Mingyang still got on the stretcher even though his condition had recovered. He was heading to the hospital for a detailed checkup.

After returning back to the room, Sun Changle ultimately couldn’t hold back his curiosity and asked, “What is Fei Mingyang suffering from?”

“Nothing much, it’s just kidney stones.” Su Tao smiled.

“I see! No wonder you told me not to let him drink anymore!” Sun Changle smiled bitterly. He might be a specialist in Neurology, he did not have much knowledge about common illnesses. However, he still knew about common knowledge such as the ureter would clog up if the kidney stone got too big.

If it wasn’t for Su Tao stopping him, Fei Mingyang’s condition would be more serious after three cups. Since Sun Changle was the one who wanted Fei Mingyang to drink, he naturally had to take on the responsibility.

But thinking about it again, this was also interesting, and who knows if he would become a story in the medical industry.

They’d heard of people becoming ill upon drinking wine, but becoming ill upon drinking tea was simply bizarre and unheard of.

Raising his thumbs towards Su Tao, Sun Changle praised, “Little Su, your medical skills are truly superb. No wonder Old Yue has been constantly praising you.”

“It’s useless to just talk about it. Su Tao is a candidate in this year’s Ten Best National Healers, so you have to give him your support.” Yue Zun smiled as he took advantage of this moment to promote.

“That’s for certain!” Sun Changle patted on his chest, “I will definitely help out, just like how Little Su helped me earlier.”

Sun Changle was a righteous person, and Su Tao had just resolved his issue, preventing him from feeling awkward and treating his friend. He had already owed Su Tao a favor, and it was natural for him to repay them.

After all, personal favors were the hardest to repay.

Yue Zun sighed inwardly. He initially wanted to introduce Su Tao and Sun Changle to each other to close up their distance to make preparation for the Ten Best National Healers. However, he still wasn’t confident if Sun Changle would help, and he had predicted that he would need some time persuading the latter.

However, he never expected that Su Tao would get a vote for himself so easily.

Sun Changle wasn’t just holding onto one vote. Otherwise, Sun Changle wouldn’t be able to become the candidate for the National Healer Team’s leader.

With Sun Changle’s support, Su Tao would have a higher chance in the Ten Best National Healers.

However, Su Tao’s thoughts weren’t so complicated as he only helped because Sun Changle had treated him and Yue Zun to a meal.

The General Alley, Wang Family’s Pharmacy.

The courtyard was filled with dead leaves lying on the ground. Normally, those leaves would be swept, but the entire Wang Family was filled with sorrow right now. As for the servants, they were all busy serving the guests who came with their condolences.

After knowing that his grandson committed suicide, Wang Xi was filled with pain as he laid on the bed for days. Even now, he still couldn’t not get down from his bed. If it wasn’t his son, Wang Ru’s medical stills, he might just follow right behind Wang Guofeng.

Holding onto a medicine bowl, Wang Ru fed his father and spoke out, “Dad, you have to take good care of yourself. I will definitely be at loss if any mishaps come to you!”

“It’s all my fault!” Wang Xi’s eyes turned red as he continued in a hoarse voice, “If I hadn’t forced him to stop practicing medicine, he wouldn’t have taken this step.”

Truth be told, Wang Ru had actually held grudges to his father for making the decision back then. However, he could only comfort his father right now, “I know that you have your own reason for making the decision back then. It was Wang Guofeng who failed you, and he wouldn’t grow up without any pressure.”

“Yeah, you need medical ethics as a physician. He has a good foundation in his medical skill, but he needs some tempering to know what is medical ethics.” Wang Xi smiled bitterly. “But I never expected that he would be so weak and chose to commit suicide.”

“Dad, it’s all because of Su Tao! I will definitely not let him off!” Wang Ru’s eyes flared with flames as it was the most tragic thing in the world to watch your children die before your eyes.

“This has nothing to do with Su Tao.” Wang Ru replied. “He’s only Wang Guofeng’s whetstone, but Guofeng’s heart is too weak. He wasn’t able to get back up from his failure.”

“I will definitely not let this matter rest!” Wang Ru snorted as he gritted his teeth.

Wang Xi knew about his son’s thoughts, but he knew that this wasn’t the time to persuade. At the same time, he was weak, and he felt sleepy when the medicine kicked in. As he shook his head helplessly, he began to fall asleep.

Watching his father falling asleep, Wang Ru came out of the living room and saw his wife sobbing. He shook his head helplessly. He only had one son, Wang Guofeng. Although he still had a daughter, the lineage of the family still had to be passed on through men.

He and his wife were already nearly in their sixties, and it was impossible for them to bear another child. That also meant that the lineage of the Wang Family had come to an end.

Although Wang Guofeng had committed suicide, his death note was filled with his hatred for Su Tao. Thus, Wang Ru wanted to take revenge for his son so that his son could rest in peace.
