Treatment by Following
"Yes, it's definitely not a good thing. Semen is a vital substance; excessive use will negatively impact the body, that much is certain."
Su Ziyang gave a fairly affirmative answer.
"Then... Doctor Su, could you please take a look at me?"
The young man hesitated before placing his hand on the pulse diagnosis kit.
"Well... to be honest, this is how it is... after my stomachache healed, I went to see a traditional Chinese medicine doctor and took some kidney-tonifying medicine. It was really potent, but now I can't stop it!"
When the young man talked about it, he was clearly not as carefree as his buddy; he seemed a little embarrassed.
What does "can't stop the car" mean?
Su Ziyang was a virgin. Although he had learned some bedroom arts, he had never actually practiced them.
"Exactly, all you think about is this."
oh!--
Su Ziyang immediately understood; in modern terms, this was called "sexual-private relations."
"I see!"
Su Ziyang nodded.
"If you hadn't said this before, I would have thought it was a good thing. But my buddy's had an accident, and I'm a bit scared now. Could you see if I could take some traditional Chinese medicine to help him recover?"
The young man became increasingly frightened as he spoke, and Su Ziyang chuckled, indicating that he understood.
"Can you explain to me why I can't stop the car?"
The young man still wanted to understand some of the underlying principles.
"Let me explain it to you using traditional Chinese medicine theory, and I'll use an example to try to make it easy for you to understand."
Su Ziyang took out a piece of white paper and began to write and draw on it.
"The heart is located in the human body and belongs to the monarch of the organs. The heart houses the spirit of the body, so whether you are happy or unhappy, joyful or sad, you will feel that it is a psychological issue. We usually say things like, 'I'm happy,' or 'I feel uneasy,' etc... Do you understand what I'm saying?"
Su Ziyang looked at the young man seriously, and the young man nodded.
"Yes, I understand. Please continue..."
The young man nodded very seriously.
"Then, the heart, in the Five Elements, belongs to fire. You can understand it like this: it's like a kerosene lamp, and the fire in the heart is the wick and the lamp holder."
Su Ziyang drew a simple little flame, looked up at the young man, and the young man nodded.
"Yes, that's what I mean. I understand, I understand!"
The young man nodded again to indicate that he understood.
"Then this lamp base. If you want it to burn continuously, you need lamp oil, and there needs to be a sufficient amount of lamp oil, right!"
"Yes, yes! That makes sense."
"And what is lamp oil? It's our vital essence. This vital essence refers to the essence that gives birth to a child, and also the essence that sustains human productive activities, the essence of energy and spirit. Although this essence has two meanings, its function is the same: to keep the lamp burning brightly."
Su Ziyang's explanation was a little too profound, but the young man thought about it for a while and understood.
"It's good that you understand."
Su Ziyang continued to explain.
"If the lamp oil keeps burning, it will eventually burn out. The drugs you take to make it stronger are like needles or tweezers used to pick out the wick. They pry at the wick, making the flame burn brighter! But when the fire gets too big, the whole oil catches fire, and that's what you're describing—it's out of control!"
Su Ziyang's explanation was basically easy to understand, and the young man slapped his thigh, instantly understanding what was going on.
"What medicine should I take to put out this fire? Don't let it burn out completely!"
Although the young man was scared, he still had the mind to talk nonsense.
"Here's what I'll do: I'll prescribe a herbal medicine for you. Go home, boil it in water, and drink it. Try it! If it works, keep drinking it. If not, I'll prescribe some herbal decoction. You said you work as an accountant and travel a lot, so for convenience, let's do it this way for now!"
"Okay, okay! Oh my god, that's so erotic! Thank you, thank you!"
The young man was moved to tears.
Su Ziyang prescribed one herb.
Morinda officinalis 26g
7 pay.
In the book * Shennong's Classic of Materia Medica *, the herb Morinda officinalis is described as follows:
It has a pungent taste and is slightly warm in nature. It is used to treat severe wind-evil, impotence, strengthen muscles and bones, soothe the five internal organs, replenish the middle jiao (spleen and stomach), enhance willpower, and benefit qi.
In Ye Tianshi's book "Explanation of the Classic of Materia Medica", it is described as follows.
"It has a slightly warm nature, a pungent and sweet taste, and is non-toxic. It is used to treat severe wind-evil, impotence, strengthen muscles and bones, soothe the five internal organs, replenish the middle jiao, enhance willpower and boost qi. (Roasted with wine)"
Morinda officinalis is slightly warm in nature, possessing the rising wood energy of spring, and enters the Liver Meridian of Foot Jueyin; it is pungent, sweet, and non-toxic, possessing the earthly flavors of metal and earth, and enters the Stomach Meridian of Foot Yangming (dry metal). Both its flavor and nature are ascending, representing yang.
Wind enters the liver, and Morinda officinalis enters the liver. It is pungent and sweet, and disperses evil qi, thus dispersing and purging it.
Yin refers to the tendons and ligaments, which belong to the liver. If the tendons and ligaments become weak and unable to rise, it means that the liver has completely lost its yang energy. Morinda officinalis warms and benefits yang, which is why it is the main treatment. Morinda officinalis treats weakness due to yang deficiency, while Epimedium treats weakness due to yin deficiency.
The liver governs the tendons, and the kidneys govern the bones; pungent and warm herbs benefit the liver and kidneys, thus strengthening the tendons and bones. The stomach is the origin of the five viscera and the chief of the twelve meridians; pungent and sweet herbs enter the stomach, warming and assisting the stomach yang, thus ensuring the well-being of all five viscera. The stomach is the central earth element; when the earth is warmed, the center is naturally nourished. The kidneys govern qi and store will; Morinda officinalis warms and benefits the liver. The liver represents courage; when the liver qi is not depleted, the kidneys are not consumed, and willpower is enhanced.
From these descriptions, we can roughly understand that this medicine can enhance male virility and treat impotence.
However, another wonderful use of this medicine is to replenish yin essence and treat hypersexuality...
The treatment method is called "treatment from the source".
Treatment based on the symptoms, also known as counter-treatment, is a therapeutic principle that addresses the symptoms of a disease by responding to its apparent nature.
When the nature of a prescription or measure conforms to the apparent nature of the disease and is consistent with the apparent nature of the disease, it is also called "treating by following the disease's pathology."
For example, some classic terms: use heat for heat, use cold for cold, use blockage for blockage, use unobstructed for unobstructed.
This means that even if a disease clearly presents as a heat-related illness, I will still use heat-related medications; even if a disease clearly presents as a cold-related illness, I will still use cold-related medications.
I'm clearly constipated, yet I'm using astringent medication instead of laxatives (like senna).
I'm using a laxative instead of a diarrhea medication, I'm just doing the opposite of what you're doing.
Choosing this treatment method requires a deep understanding and knowledge of the disease.
Because the surface may appear hot, but the inside is actually cold, warming medicine is still used; the other points are similar.
Su Ziyang used aphrodisiac drugs to treat his persistent virility, which is based on this principle.
The first reason is that this young man has already ruined his health over the past six months. If he were to take medication to clear his heart fire at this point, it would be counterproductive. The fire is raging, and water cannot extinguish it; instead, it will become even more intense, which would be the opposite of what is intended.
