The “black jade ointment” that can magically restore broken bones does not only exist in martial arts novels! A man aged 50 years old, some time ago, a car accident caused one side of the knee ligament rupture, after taking an X-ray, Western medicine recommended surgery, but the man for some reason did not immediately open surgery, dragged on for a while, a few days ago completely unable to walk, turned to the Chinese medicine injury department for help, after the use of medicine, acupuncture, said also miraculous, less than six months, the ligament actually slowly grow back, even the Chinese medicine doctors are amazed.
The man, surnamed Gu, was hit by a car accident in front of his home and was sent to the hospital for an X-ray, the knee ligaments had been ruptured, but the man, for some reason, did not accept the doctor’s recommendation to operate immediately for treatment, and by the time he turned to Chinese medicine for treatment, the lower leg muscles had atrophied, the skin was purplish red, the whole foot was numb and insensitive, and he was completely unable to walk. Subsequently, after more than half a year of medication and acupuncture treatment, the man gradually improved, the legs became stronger, especially unbelievable, and then to the hospital for an X-ray examination, actually found that the original broken ligaments have partially grown back.
Although such cases are rare, like the plot of a martial arts novel, Dr. Sheng-Pu Lee, a Chinese medicine doctor, jokingly compared that the Chinese people have been fighting and killing for 5,000 years, and the accumulated experience in traumatology can be said to be numerous, although it is not faster than modern medicine recovery, but Chinese medicine doctors often say that “broken bones reverse the strength” seems to be justified, proving that Chinese medicine in traumatology to tie the tendons and bones does have a unique effect.
Chinese medicine has a lot of tools for injuries and damage to bones and ligaments. Dr. Sheng-Pu Lee said that Chinese medicine, including Teasel Root, Himalayan Teasel Root, Prepared Common Monkshood Daughter Root, Cinnamomi Ramulus, Angelica sinensis, Szechwan Lovage Rhizome, Suberect Spatholobus Stem, Panax notoginseng and American ginseng, can all achieve the treatment goal of restoring tendons and nerve paralysis through the effect of activating blood circulation and removing blood stasis, plus the function of warming the meridians and tying the tendons and bones.
When it comes to bone strengthening remedies in Chinese medicine, Guilu Erxian Glue (GEG) is the most familiar one, but in fact, in Chinese medicine, Guilu Erxian Glue is only the most basic medicine to protect the bones and prevent bone fractures, and some Chinese medicine doctors have developed formulas with experience, and the effect is even better. Dr. Sheng-Pu Lee said, Chinese medicine believes that “the kidney is the main bone”, the kidney qi is the bone qi, a person’s bone quality is all depending on the exuberance of the kidney qi, if the kidney qi is strong, the bone qi is naturally sufficient, even at an older age is not prone to bone loss, osteoporosis.
There is a saying that “it takes a hundred days to heal the bones and tendons”, meaning that the treatment of injuries to the bones and tendons often takes a long time and a lot of work. However, there is no such conclusion in Chinese medicine, and the time required for recovery depends on the patient’s age. According to the experience of Chinese medicine, the most important factor in determining the effectiveness of the treatment of a person’s bones and ligaments depends on the age of the patient, generally speaking, the younger the person is, the faster the recovery rate, and conversely, the older the person is, the slower the recovery rate.
However, there are several taboos that must not be violated during the treatment of Chinese medicine, Li Shenpu stressed, the first taboo is to drink ice water, because cold food will make the temperature of the stomach and intestines drop, hindering the circulation of Qi and blood in the body, including bamboo shoots, pickles, fava beans, bananas, watermelon, pears and other cold, acidic food, coffee which is diuretic must also eat and drink less, otherwise it will have a negative impact on the ability to regenerate the tendons and bones, delaying the speed and effectiveness of recovery.
