Chapter 201: Chapter 201

When Graham and Hector heard that the patient’s waist was hot, they looked at each other and sighed once again. Their acupuncture was indeed impressive, but such an effect was something they could never achieve. Annalise, despite her young age, did an amazing job!

Annalise smiled and said to the patient, “Sir, this is normal. You used to have lesions on your waist and cervical vertebrae. When you encounter cold and humid air, for example, when the weather is cold, the cold will drill into the lesions. You will feel that your neck and waist are cold. It’s so uncomfortable, and you won’t feel hot even if you try to warm up.”

“Yes, exactly. Before I was paralyzed, I just felt that my cervical vertebrae and waist were always cold. I had to wear more clothes during winter times. But no matter how many clothes I wore, my waist and cervical vertebrae were still cold. Later on, when I was paralyzed, I felt even colder,” the patient said.

Annalise said, “After I treat you, you have to listen to me and take care of yourself. You need to be very careful for about half a year, and then you will be completely cured.”

“This can be completely cured in half a year?” The patient, Graham, and Hector asked in unison. “Yes,”

Annalise replied. Everyone’s eyes lit up. The patient saw hope. Graham and Hector also saw hope in traditional medicine.

Graham regretted what he said previously when he wanted to take Annalise as his disciple. Now that he had seen Annalise’s treatment, he knew that her medical skills were better than his. How could he have such a thought? If it wasn’t for the fact that he still had some ego, he would have asked Annalise to take him in as a disciple. Seeing that the patient’s confidence was completely established, Annalise’s lips curled into a gratified smile.

He needed to take care of himself in the later stages. The effect was slow, and it was harder for the patient to persevere. She had to convince the patient that he would indeed recover so that he had the motivation to persevere.

After the acupuncture, Annalise asked someone to pull a bed over. She lay on the bed and demonstrated to the patient, “Sir, follow me. Hold your hands like this and raise your head like this.

Raise your legs up at the same time. Every time you feel soreness and swelling, you are doing it right.

Hold on for as long as you can. You must grit your teeth and persevere. Maintain this posture at all times.” Annalise did a standard swallow posture.

The patient believed everything Annalise said, so he immediately followed suit. He was worried that he would not be able to lift his legs at all. He did not expect that he would actually do it after trying once.

He could control his legs, and it didn’t hurt as much as he had imagined. “Sir, besides this, you have to keep your head up at all times. Raise your head like I am doing. You will feel sore and dizzy. You have to keep doing it,” Annalise said.

“Okay, I’ll try to. I’ll definitely persevere.” The patient had just realized that he could raise his head and lift his feet. Moreover, raising his head and lifting his feet did not hurt so much anymore. He was extremely excited. “He’s healed?” Graham asked Annalise in surprise.

Annalise shook his head. “No, we still have to set the bone a few more times. Things like this can’t be done properly once. Now, the main thing is to correct the patient’s habits. He needs to lift his head and feet more to adjust the physiological curvature back.” Graham and Hector nodded.

The patient could no longer move after doing this a few times. He was tired and wanted to lie down or rest. Annalise encouraged him to persevere. When he could not go on, he would think about how he could not go back to the days when he was paralyzed in bed. Sure enough, Annalise’s words were very useful. The patient insisted on exercising again.

Half an hour later, the patient was exhausted, but his condition was indeed much better than before.

Annalise told the patient to lie down and she began to do moxibustion on him. Moxibustion would make the patient feel very comfortable. Annalise allowed the patient to relax and have a good sleep.

The patient was in a lot of pain and fatigue today. When he heard that he could sleep, he immediately closed his eyes. In less than three minutes, the sound of the patient sleeping could be heard.

“Impressive!” Graham gave Annalise a thumbs up. Annalise said that she needed to set the patient’s bones in the next few days, accompanied by medical treatment.

After the patient’s blood circulation improved, he had to continue taking medicine to reduce blood clots, supplemented by her acupuncture. As for modern medicine doctors, they learned that traditional medicine practitioners chose to treat patients with cervical vertebrae today. They also scheduled cervical vertebrae patients today.

It took them only three hours to perform the operation on them. The operation on the stent was carried out at the same time as the operation on the cervical lumbar. Gwen was thinking that they finished their surgery the fastest. She didn’t expect that when they came out of the operation room, Annalise had already pushed the patient out of the treatment room.

Both traditional doctors and modern doctors had finished, and the reporters rushed toward Annalise.

They interviewed Annalise. “Mrs. Parks, may I ask if you’re really using the traditional treatment and not surgery on the patient?”

“Mrs. Parks, I heard that the patient’s condition is very tricky. Only surgeries can save him. Can you really cure him without surgeries?” “Guys, you will see the effect of our treatment on the day the competition ends. The patient needs to rest now!” Annalise said.

At this moment, a sharp-eyed reporter realized that the patient was awake. He immediately aimed the microphone at the person on the bed. “Hello, hello. How are you feeling now?” “I feel fine,” the patient said. “Are they really treating you conservatively? Are you confident in their treatment?” “Yes, I’m confident,” the patient said. “Are you able to walk now?” the reporter asked.

The patient had never received so much attention before. He only knew that traditional medicine practitioner was competing with doctors of modern medicine. He wanted to thank Annalise for treating him. He really wanted to get up and show them that he could walk now. Annalise stopped him. “Sir, you need to rest now. Don’t move around.” It wasn’t easy for her to fix his bones, so she had to let him lie down and rest well. If he moved around, his bones might twist again.

“If you guys are free tomorrow, you can come over and see for yourself whether he can walk around,”

Annalise said. When Gwen heard Annalise’s words, he felt that Annalise was bragging again. It pissed her off that Annalise would brag to steal her limelight.

She couldn’t help but say, “Don’t tell me you think that you can cure someone with just a few needles?”

The reporters were very excited when they saw the two doctors arguing. They began to take photos crazily. Annalise looked at Gwen and did not back down. “There’s no point in arguing. Let’s see our results in the end.”

Graham and Hector gave Annalise a thumbs up and praised loudly, “Well said!” Annalise asked the reporters to make way. They had pushed the patient to the ward. When the reporters saw that Annalise and the two other doctors had gone to the ward, they immediately turned around to interview Gwen Raven.

A reporter who did not know medicine at all held the microphone toward her and asked, “Eh, Doctor Raven, I saw that their patient is awake. Why is your patient still asleep?”

A reporter who knew a little medicine reminded him, “Are you stupid? He has undergone surgery. He’s on anesthesia.” Oh, then Miss Raven, can your patient get out of bed tomorrow?”
