184: Stay Up Late Package
Upon hearing Qin Jiang’s words, Wang Rong said with great embarrassment, “Using a breast pump is very painful for me, and as for my husband… he has never been able to help much.”
Wang Rong spoke subtly, but Qin Jiang understood.
In fact, many couples who have had a Little Girl know that the husband is the most effective means to help his wife with engorgement.
But if some people cannot overcome their psychological barriers, then there is nothing that can be done.
Qin Jiang said to Wang Rong, “Put your hand here, and I’ll see what’s going on.”
According to Qin Jiang’s visual assessment, Wang Rong should not have been experiencing engorgement.
Wang Rong placed her hand on the pulse pillow, and as soon as Qin Jiang took her pulse, his brows immediately furrowed.
“Have you been staying up late recently?”
If Wang Rong was taking care of the child, Qin Jiang felt that her staying up late would be normal.
But didn’t Wang Rong say from the beginning that Song Xia was taking care of the child?
Wang Rong nodded and said, “Sometimes I suffer from insomnia at night and can’t sleep, so I play on my phone for a while and scroll through short videos.”
Qin Jiang then asked, “It’s one thing for you to stay up late, but you also eat supper late at night?”
Wang Rong stared at Qin Jiang with wide eyes.
She did not expect Qin Jiang to be so capable, that he could even tell such things by taking her pulse.
Wang Rong continued, “Yes, because I get hungry when I can’t sleep at night, so I ask my husband to order takeout for me. Sometimes it’s food he cooks himself, and it’s all quite healthy.”
Qin Jiang said bluntly, “You’ve just given birth, and your body is at its weakest. How can you stay up late and eat at the same time?”
“Staying up late is very damaging to the liver and gallbladder. If you don’t rest when you should, and then try to make up for it by sleeping the next day, you simply can’t make it up.”
“Also, after your stomach reaches night, its qi begins to weaken, and the stomach also needs to rest. But because of what you do, your stomach doesn’t rest either and is forced to work overtime. Do you think that’s good for your body?”
Qin Jiang’s words were very stern when he said these things.
Young people nowadays really don’t understand anything about health preservation and just mess around with their bodies.
From the perspective of Chinese medicine, staying up late causes the most harm to people.
After all, if you don’t rest during the hours you should, it’s simply impossible to recover by trying to catch up on sleep.
Chinese medicine emphasizes conforming to the natural timing. The twelve two-hour periods, and what should be done in each period, is conforming to the natural timing.
Moreover, Wang Rong is a new mother who has just given birth. Doing this further depletes the vital energy within her body.
The netizens in the live broadcast room started complaining.
“Staying up late shouldn’t cause that much harm, should it? Is Dr. Qin being a bit alarmist?”
“You’re already staying up late, so ordering a late-night snack isn’t too much, is it? And if you’ve ordered a late-night snack, watching a movie or binging a show isn’t too much, is it?”
“Then think carefully about this behavior of yours. Didn’t it mobilize all your heart, liver, spleen, lungs, and kidneys? Your internal organs, which should have been resting, all started working overtime to accommodate your staying up late. Now tell me, isn’t that harmful to your body?”
“Whether staying up late is seriously harmful to your body, you just need to look at the Nurses who work three shifts in the Hospital. Few people can endure it, and even if they do, few don’t age quickly.”
Young people rely on their good health, so they can be reckless.
When they truly feel weak, it will be too late for anything.
Wang Rong was scolded by Qin Jiang and quickly nodded humbly in acceptance.
“I understand, Dr. Qin. I will definitely not stay up late in the future. So, is my engorgement related to staying up late?”
Qin Jiang looked at her and explained, “The reason you have engorgement, besides your own physical constitution, is primarily because of stagnant liver qi, which leads to swelling and pain.”
“People with poor liver function also have bad tempers. Do you have morning grumpiness?”
Ning Qi, standing by, nodded repeatedly.
“Yes, my wife’s temper is worst when she wakes up in the morning. If anyone provokes her, she’ll start swearing.”
Qin Jiang recorded this in her medical record and then asked, “The liver and gallbladder are closely related. If the liver is not well, the gallbladder cannot be problem-free. Is your wife also timid?”
Wang Rong said with an embarrassed expression, “I am indeed quite timid, but this shouldn’t be something acquired later in life, right? It should be innate timidity?”
“I get very scared when I see mice or cockroaches, and I usually don’t dare to watch horror movies.”
Wang Rong’s understanding of this was actually incorrect.
A person’s courage constantly changes with their physical state.
Why do people say alcohol gives courage to cowards?
It’s because when a person drinks alcohol, they are in a state of intoxication, and the qi movement of their entire internal organs is disrupted.
At this time, people who were originally timid will become bold with the help of alcohol.
Similarly, some people are very afraid of graves and ghosts.
But why, when passing by a martyrs’ cemetery or their own family grave, does that feeling of fear lessen significantly?
This is actually a cognitive issue.
When you realize that there’s no need to be afraid of something, your courage naturally increases.
So, there is no such thing as innate timidity, only innate lack of courage.
After clarifying Wang Rong’s symptoms, Qin Jiang said to her, “I will prescribe some medicine for you here. Take it consistently after you go back. It can soothe the liver and regulate qi, helping you solve the problem of engorgement.”
“However, for this period, you must not stay up late at night, and even more so, do not eat supper. If you absolutely must eat, you can boil some plain eggs.”
“Also, be nicer to your mother-in-law. She’s here to help you take care of the Little Girl. Be polite to her, don’t curse at her at every turn, and rein in your temper.”
Wang Rong nodded repeatedly to Qin Jiang, indicating that she would definitely make good changes in the future.
Qin Jiang pointed to the QR code on the table and said, “Pay up, it’s one thousand five in total.”
Wang Rong was already tormented by the engorgement problem. She didn’t hesitate at all and quickly pulled out her phone to pay.
Ding.
[Detected that the host was blunt with the patient, revealing the patient’s hidden ailment, which greatly helped the patient. Mission complete.]
[Congratulations to the host on receiving the reward: Root-Strengthening and Essence-Nourishing Pill]
After confirming the money had arrived, Qin Jiang got up and walked into the pharmacy, packing over forty Liver-Soothing and Qi-Regulating Pills for Wang Rong.
Just then, medical personnel from other Hospitals arrived and put Ning Guang, who had been resuscitated, into an ambulance, preparing to take him to another Hospital for further examination.
After all, the child had been suffocating for so long, and it was estimated that his brain and other organs had already suffered damage.
After Qin Jiang handed the Liver-Soothing and Qi-Regulating Pills to Wang Rong, the family of three immediately followed the ambulance and left.
