The late Mr. Hu Xishu, a famous Chinese medicine doctor, had a close relative surnamed Liu, an engineer, who never believed in Chinese medicine, let alone took Chinese medicine. Once I had a cold, fever, injection, oral administration of Western medicine did not alleviate, but the headache was like a crack, day and night call can not sleep. Because it was a close relative, Elder Hu personally visited. Diagnosing the number of pulse strings, the chest is full of pain, the heart is upset, the mouth is dry, the headache is unbearable, and the small chai hu tang plus plaster is immediately prescribed. Engineer Liu could not afford to oppose Chinese medicine at this time, and quickly let his family catch the medicine back. As a result, it was good to eat it once. I don't have a fever anymore, I don't have a headache anymore, and I sleep soundly. At this moment, he was completely convinced, his attitude took a 180-degree turn, and he became a die-hard fan of Chinese medicine. Later, he suffered from tuberculosis, but he was also cured by Hu Lao's treatment.
Xiao Chai Hu Tang consists of Chai Hu, Skullcap, Ginseng, Ban Xia, Burning Licorice, Ginger and Jujube.
Elder Hu explained: Fang Zhongchai Hu Kuping, "Shennong Materia Medica" is said to cure the heart, stomach and intestines in the gas, diet accumulation, cold and heat evil qi, push the old to make new, it can be seen that it is an antipyretic drug that relieves qi stagnation and has the special ability to cure chest pain, Fang Zhong uses the main medicine, accompanied by skullcap to remove heat and relieve annoyance, half summer, ginger drink by drink to stop vomiting, reuse ginseng, jujube, licorice to supplement stomach qi to nourish the liquid, the reason why the disease is transmitted to less yang, mainly the stomach qi is not strong in the inside, the qi and blood are insufficient in the outside, and the tonic nourishing liquid is the key to dispel evil spirits.
Hu Lao academically dares to say and dare to act, and in the clinic, he always takes the effect of seeing a doctor as the starting point and destination point for the study of "Typhoid Fever", and only the curative effect is from it.
As a professor of North Chinese medicine, Hu Lao's lifelong indifference to fame and fortune is very prudent in his studies. Teacher Hu Xishu was in his dark room, which was leaking through the wind and rain, and for a long time he could not release the scroll, picking up the lamp and doing hard work. Numerous of his medical manuscripts were always revised over and over again based on clinical gains, and not a single treatise was published during his lifetime. However, the only paper published in the 1960s entitled "The Relationship between the Six Classics and the Eight Principles of The Treatise on Typhoid Fever" gave the medical community a big shock, and the People's Daily gave it a high evaluation, believing that it was "to solve the problem of the lack of exposition by the doctors of the past generations". #TCM# #Hu Xi Shu #
Elder Hu died of illness in the early spring of 1984. After his death, a large number of his manuscripts were successively compiled and published by the disciples of the elderly, and his unique and self-contained academic views greatly shocked the Chinese medicine community.
Hu Xishu's clinical experience is true
