Chapter 153 Mania

"Yes! There is a compartment next to it. You can go in and discuss it. Make a treatment plan for me as soon as possible." Prince Xun pointed to the side hall next to the main hall and said to Xu Qingyi and Bai Yan.

“Mania.”

“Mania.”

After Xu Qingyi and Bai Yan entered the side hall, they looked at each other and spoke at the same time.

“Yes, according to what Prince Xun described, it is mania.

This is a difficult situation. If taking medicine, acupuncture and aromatherapy are ineffective, and there is no Western medicine treatment, what should we do?

Qingyi, do you have any solution?" Bai Yan frowned and asked.

Mania is a mental illness with elevated emotions or irritability as the main clinical phase, accompanied by high energy, increased speech, and increased activity. In severe cases, it is accompanied by psychotic symptoms such as hallucinations, delusions, and tension.

A manic episode lasts for more than a week and generally has an episodic course. After each episode, there is an intermittent remission period with normal mental state. Most patients tend to have repeated episodes.

Judging from Prince Xun's current condition, he was able to suppress his mania by taking medicine before, which was a mild case of mania. Now he can't suppress it anymore and it has become gradually worse.

"I... have a treatment method, but..." Xu Qingyi was embarrassed, with worry between her eyebrows. Although she was a skilled doctor, she felt helpless in the face of this kind of mental illness, especially without the help of Western medicine.

"Just what?" Bai Yan asked.

"Thirteen Ghost Needles Treatment."

"What is this?" Bai Yan asked in confusion.

"The Thirteen Ghost Gate Needles are acupuncture treatments for ghost seals, ghost palaces, ghost caves, ghost fortresses, ghost roads, ghost markets, ghost halls, ghost pillows, ghost hearts, ghost legs, ghost letters, ghost camps, ghost hideaways, and ghost ministers. The thirteen ghost points are selected to treat epilepsy, madness, and epilepsy.

In other words, the Thirteen Ghost Gate Needles can treat mental illnesses such as depression, obsessive-compulsive disorder, schizophrenia, insomnia, etc. This acupuncture method absorbs the essence of various types of acupuncture and moxibustion, and uses the acupuncture mechanism of different acupoints to cure the disease with a needle. It has a unique curative effect and occupies an important position in the history of world medicine. To this day, the "Thirteen Ghost Gate Needles" is regarded as one of the important research topics. "Xu Qingyi slowly talked about the efficacy and acupuncture points of the Thirteen Ghost Gate Needles.

Traditional treatment of mental illness only uses antipsychotic Western drugs, which have serious toxic side effects on organs such as the liver and kidneys. Not only do patients become dependent on them, but they also feel uncomfortable. Once the medication is reduced or stopped, it is very likely to cause a relapse of the disease.

The Thirteen Ghost Gate Needles open up the Heart Meridian, the heart governs the mind, and a disturbed mind leads to confusion; the Governor Meridian is selected to calm the mind; the Spleen Meridian is selected to circulate Qi and blood, and improve the spirit; the Stomach Meridian is selected to govern appetite, strengthen the body, and regulate emotions; the Liver Meridian is selected to vent and express emotions; the Gallbladder Meridian is selected to wake up the brain and treat dizziness; the Kidney Meridian is selected to eliminate insomnia and dreaminess. According to the patient's condition, appropriate acupoints are selected to dredge the meridians, open up the meridians, allow Qi and blood to flow, and control the condition without side effects.

The cure rate is high. Patients with mild insomnia can see results within three days of treatment. Patients with severe insomnia will see significant improvement in about seven days. Symptoms such as headaches and insomnia will basically return to normal within a month.

The reason why Xu Qingyi hesitated before was that the Thirteen Ghost Gate Needles is a special treatment method. If the treatment fails, it may cause the disease to recur or worsen, and may also cause adverse reactions such as pain.

If the treatment fails, the expected effect will not be achieved, the condition will recur, and the condition may be aggravated due to stimulation of the acupoints. If the treatment is not done properly, it may cause severe pain and may also cause local redness, swelling, bleeding, etc.

"Qingyi, you hesitated just now. Is it because it is difficult to perform the Thirteen Ghost Gate Needles, or because there are side effects?" Bai Yan remembered Qingyi's hesitation after talking about the Thirteen Ghost Gate Needles, and she asked with an moved heart.

"It's not difficult for me, it's just..." Later, Xu Qingyi told Bai Yan about the possible consequences after the Thirteen Ghost Gate Needles.

“Maybe we don’t need to use all thirteen ghost gate needles. Let’s just use a few first and see the effect.

At that time, I will give it to Prince Xun with the prescription of Guntan Pills. Although it is impossible to cure Prince Xun's mania immediately, it is still possible to make him sleep well. " Bai Yan said after pondering for a moment.

Guntan Pills, also known as Luanshi Guntan Pills, are expectorants that have the effect of purging fire and expelling phlegm.

It is mainly used to treat symptoms of real heat and old phlegm. It can treat epilepsy, coma, palpitations, insomnia, strange dreams, cough, asthma, thick phlegm, chest tightness, dizziness, tinnitus, constipation, thick and greasy yellow tongue coating, slippery and rapid pulse. It is commonly used in the treatment of stroke, schizophrenia, epilepsy, migraine, neurosis and other symptoms of real fire and stubborn phlegm.

"Okay, let's do it this way for now." Finally, after Xu Qingyi and Bai Yan checked for omissions and formulated a treatment plan for Prince Xun, they left the side hall.

"How did the discussion go?" After seeing Xu Qingyi and Bai Yan coming out of the side hall, Prince Xun glanced at Xu Qingyi and Bai Yan and asked casually.

“It’s acupuncture plus medication.

However, I have to make it clear in advance that the prince's illness is somewhat stubborn and difficult to treat, and the first seven or ten days of treatment may not show any effect.

You need to be patient, Your Majesty, and insist on acupuncture and medicine every day, and don't rush for success." Xu Qingyi made it clear first.

Otherwise, after treating Prince Xun for a few days and seeing no effect, he would go crazy and irritable again, and they would be the ones who would suffer.

Prince Xun heard this and nodded slightly: "I will only wait for ten days. If you still don't see any effect after ten days, you can do whatever you want."

"Then let's start the treatment now." Xu Qingyi nodded and said with a serious expression.

Afterwards, he took out the silver needles and began to give Prince Xun the Thirteen Ghost Gate Needles.

After giving one stitch, Xu Qingyi would not give the next stitch immediately.

Xu Qingyi observed the changes in Prince Xun's complexion. She would only give the next injection after seeing that there were no other adverse reactions. She knew that treating this disease required patience and carefulness, and there could be no carelessness.

After inserting six needles in succession, Xu Qingyi stopped inserting needles.

As time passed, Prince Xun's complexion began to gradually turn rosy, and his breathing became much steadier.

Seeing this, Xu Qingyi couldn't help but feel relieved. She knew that her treatment had begun to show results.

However, she also knew that this was just the beginning. In order to completely cure Prince Xun's illness, she needed to continue to insist on treatment and pay attention to conditioning her body. It was probably difficult to cure this mania in a short period of time.

After the acupuncture, he wrote out a medical prescription and arranged a time for the acupuncture treatment the next day. Then Xu Qingyi, Bai Yan and Shan Zhifu withdrew.
