Ancient allusions to epidemic prevention diseases

There were several plagues in the ancient history of China. In this crisis, people always come forward to save the people in from the mire. Their stories are touching to read so far.

The story of Zhang Zhongjing's treatment of epidemic situation

At the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, wars were frequent and the people were miserable. To make matters worse, there were several great plagues during this period, and thousands of people died. Zhang Zhongjing lived in such a background.

Zhang Zhongjing's family is a big family in Nanyang, with more than 200 people at home. Zhang Zhongjing liked reading medical books and books when he was young, and there were many books at home, so he had considerable medical knowledge since he was a child.

At the age of twelve, Zhang Zhongjing's father passed away. Two years later, his mother was infected with the plague and could not recover. At that time, medical conditions were very limited, and many people had to fend for themselves. What's more, divination was popular at that time. Many people are sick and turn to God instead of doctors, so when the plague comes, many people always die.

In Zhang Zhongjing's family, in less than ten years, two-thirds of people died of the plague.

Seeing that relatives fell ill one by one, Zhang Zhongjing couldn't sit still. According to what he learned, he picked a cart of herbs up the mountain and came back to cook a pot of medicinal soup, hoping to help his relatives and neighbors. However, people do not believe Zhang Zhongjing at all.

In order to dispel everyone's doubts, Zhang Zhongjing personally tried the medicine and fed it to his mother. After a few days, Zhang Zhongjing was safe and sound, and his mother's condition gradually improved. At this time, people believed that Zhang Zhongjing's decoction could really cure diseases, so they took it one after another. This experience of treating the epidemic made Zhang Zhongjing unforgettable all his life, and also prompted him to devote himself to the cause of treating the epidemic.

Zhang Zhongjing visited famous doctors, familiarized himself with medical classics, and combined with his own practical experience, finally wrote an epoch-making masterpiece of clinical medicine, Treatise on Febrile Diseases.

The story of Li Dongyuan's treatment of epidemic diseases.

In A.D. 1232, Mongolian fighters besieged the capital of the State of Jin, Bianliang. At this moment, a plague broke out in the capital of song dynasty, killing people every day, ranging from 1000 to more than 3000. In just three months, the huge capital of song dynasty city wailed everywhere and was shrouded in the threat of death.

Many practitioners participated in the treatment of patients, but it didn't work at all, and people died in batches.

At this time, an old man in his 500 s was lost in thought: "Why did these people get worse after treatment?" Is there any other reason besides the plague? " The old man's name is Gao Li, and he was named Dongyuan old man in his later years. He lost everything in his early years and studied medicine under the then famous doctor Zhang. He is one of the four famous doctors in China history.

Li Dongyuan was in this city when the Mongols besieged the capital of song dynasty. He felt that the Mongols had besieged the capital of song dynasty for several months, and the people were hungry and tired, which had damaged their spleen and stomach. At that time, the doctor who treated the plague gave them antiperspirants, which consumed the true qi and made their condition worse.

Li Dongyuan treats diseases.

Based on his years of medical experience, he came to the conclusion that the plague at this time was not caused by the plague, but the people hurt their spleen and stomach. To this end, he concocted a prescription for patients to replenish qi and regulate the spleen and stomach.

Li Dongyuan's measures really worked, and many people were cured. He made his medicine into pills and distributed them to soldiers and people. The plague in the capital of song dynasty finally stopped.

The story of Wu Youke's treatment of epidemic disease

At the end of the Ming Dynasty, wars were raging, and there was drought and little rain in North China, Northwest China and the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River. In this context, refugees are everywhere, people and animals are dying one after another, and plague is imminent. The plague turned the fertile south of the Yangtze River into a hell on earth. "An alley/kloc-more than 0/00 houses, none of which is free. There are dozens of people in one door, and none is left. "

Many practitioners are still using Zhang Zhongjing's typhoid prescription to treat the plague, but it doesn't work at all.

At this time, a doctor named Wu Youxing stood up and shouted, "Don't look for a cure from the ancient prescription!" " "

Wu is also an in-depth doctor. He found that this plague could not be explained by typhoid fever in medical books at all, and new treatment methods must be adopted. In order to find the source of the disease, he made a survey in the cowshed and pigsty, and finally found that the plague was caused by "rage"

Wu Youke's story was put on the screen.

This kind of "hostility" is different from the traditional wind, cold, humidity and heat. It spreads from the patient's mouth and nose, and then spreads to others through gas.

Whether suffocation can cause plague depends on the concentration of suffocation and human immunity; Different parts are attacked by different rage, leading to different diseases; Although both human plague and animal plague are caused by rage, the treatment methods are different due to different species.

After finding the cause, Wu Youke developed a prescription for treating the plague-Dayuanyin according to his years of medical experience and practice. This prescription still played a good preventive and therapeutic role during the SARS period in 2003.
