After traveling through time, she took her husband to be a food doctor

Chapter 293 Bacteria after rain cause tinea pedis, dry autumn leaves cause skin breakage

Chenpi and Banxia came over quickly and helped them sit on the stool. The man rolled up his trouser legs and took off his shoes, revealing deep and shallow scratches. A strange smell also appeared in the clinic. Chenpi turned his head and covered his mouth and nose slightly, but he turned back immediately.

"How did it become like this?" Lin Mingxuan couldn't help but frown.

"Doctor, there's nothing we can do. It's too itchy." The man said, and couldn't help but scratch it again.

"Please bear with it for now." Lin Mingxuan grabbed his hand.

"When did the itch start?"

"It was a few days after the rain, I got infected first, and then it seemed to have spread to my wife." The man looked at his wife embarrassedly.

"Did you wade in the water when it rained?"

"There is some water in the yard, and my feet always get wet when I go back and forth," the man replied.

"We also had to transport goods in the rain for two days. I didn't feel anything while working, but when I looked at the work at night, I was soaked through," the woman added.

"Did you change your clothes in time?"

"I'll change it after I finish the work."

“Do you change your shoes and socks every day?”

"It rains every day, how can I change it every day? Even if I wash it, it won't dry." The man waved his hand.

"Yes, we also want to change it every day." The woman gritted her teeth and endured the itch without scratching.

Alas, bacteria breed in rainy days. The two of them got wet in the rain and didn't change their shoes and socks often. They should have tinea pedis. They didn't see a doctor in time after the symptoms appeared. The itching was unbearable, and they scratched it, which made the situation worse. Ding Xirui looked at the two of them, and it seemed that his feet were also starting to itch, and he couldn't help but take a step back.

"Doctor, my neighbor used to have itchy feet often. He said that he got better after soaking his feet in medicinal soup. Please prescribe some medicine for us." The man urged.

Lin Mingxuan shook his head.

"No, the skin on your feet is broken. You can only soak your feet after the wound has healed."

"Ah? How much more suffering do I have to endure?" The man's expression became even more painful.

"It's all your fault. I asked you to come but you didn't." The woman glared at the man.

"It's raining, why are you coming out?" The man felt a little aggrieved.

"Doctor, what should we do then?" the woman asked.

"Take a few doses of medicine first to relieve your symptoms. How are your health?"

"Although we both do rough labor, we have always been in good health." The man stood up, seeming very proud.

"Yes, when the cold was prevalent last year, so many people got sick, and some didn't survive. But my husband and I were fine," the woman added with a smile on her face.

Ding Xirui admired silently, a body that could resist the epidemic was indeed good. She looked at the two of them and saw that they were well-proportioned and looked okay. It was probably because of tinea pedis that they had not slept well at night recently. If it was a normal day, their complexion should be better.

"Let me take your pulses."

"Okay." The man said, rolling up his sleeves.

Lin Mingxuan took the woman's pulse, nodded slightly, and then checked the woman's pulse.

"You two have been suffering from dampness in your bodies recently. Take some medicine to remove dampness."

"Okay, I'll do as you say."

Saposhnikovia divaricata, Atractylodes macrocephala, Atractylodes macrocephala, Red Poria cocos, Tangerine peel, Magnolia officinalis, Polyporus umbellatus... Ding Xirui took a look at the prescription written by Lin Mingxuan, which was Dehumidifying Wei Ling Decoction.

Xiaoqiang took the prescription to get the medicine, and Awen went to the backyard to boil a dose first. After the couple took it, Lin Mingxuan prescribed a Sophora flavescens soup for foot bath.

"First, drink dehumidifying medicine for a few days, and wait until the skin on your feet has healed before soaking your feet. If you feel uncomfortable at night, wrap your legs and feet with a clean cloth before going to bed, and be sure to bear it."

"Yes." The couple nodded.

"Shoes and socks must be changed every day and must be clean. If they have been worn before, boil them several times in boiling water or boil them in Sophora flavescens soup." Lin Mingxuan continued to instruct.

"Thank you, doctor. We remember it."

"Don't eat spicy food or drink alcohol these days," Ding Xirui added.

The couple looked at her and then at Lin Mingxuan.

"Yes, Doctor Ding is right." He nodded.

After seeing the couple off, a girl of about fifteen or sixteen came to the door.

"I heard that there is a female doctor in Jimin Hall. Is it you?" The girl looked at Ding Xirui and asked.

"Well, is there anything I can help you with?" Ding Xirui nodded.

The little girl looked around, with some hesitation on her face.

"Please follow me." Ding Xirui led her to the back hall.

"Girl, there's no one else here, just tell me if you have any questions."

"Doctor, my wife's legs are...extremely dry and itchy at night. Last night, she scratched her legs and only discovered it when she woke up in the morning."

"Has this ever happened before?"

"Not really. My wife's skin is prone to dryness, and it becomes dry in autumn and winter, but it has never been itchy in the past, it was just drier. I don't know what happened this year... She scratched it once shortly after the fall, but it didn't break..." The little girl said, frowning.

"Besides the skin on your legs, is the skin on other parts of your body dry as well?"

"My wife has a strange condition. Her chest and back aren't dry, but her arms and legs are dry, especially her legs."

"Yeah." Ding Xirui nodded, judging that the lady should have combination skin.

"Have there been any changes in your diet or lifestyle habits recently?" she asked.

"No, it's the same as before." The little girl paused and continued, "It rained a few days ago, and I was afraid that my wife would be cold, so I put a brazier in the house. If there is one difference from the past, it is that the brazier is lit earlier than in previous years. Although the weather has warmed up a bit in the past two days, I still put the brazier at night, burn a few pieces of charcoal to warm up the house, and then take it outside."

Ding Xirui nodded: "That's it. Placing the brazier in the house makes the house drier and the skin drier. However, there are many conditions that can cause dry skin, and we need to look at the whole picture. My medical skills are still limited, so I'm afraid I can't make a diagnosis, so I still need to ask Doctor Lin in the front hall to take your pulse..."

"Male doctor...how do you examine patients?" The little girl was very resistant.

"Don't worry, I will go with you. Doctor Lin will just ask questions and feel your pulse."

"Okay." The little girl smiled.

Ding Lin and the other two took the medicine box and followed her home. It was a small courtyard located in the East Fang, which was refreshing and elegant. When the girl opened the door, a woman was pruning the branches of flowers in the courtyard, and a servant was helping her.

"Madam, I brought a doctor with me," said the little girl.

Lin Mingxuan and Ding Xirui nodded in greeting. The woman looked a little embarrassed, and immediately handed the large scissors in her hand to the servant next to her and quickly returned the greeting.

"Come in," she said.

The two men followed the woman into the main hall, and the girl poured them tea.

"Madam, dry skin may have many reasons, it may be dry lungs, blood deficiency, or kidney yin deficiency. May I ask, do you usually feel dry mouth, tongue, nasopharynx?" Lin Mingxuan asked.

The woman shook her head. "That's not the case."

"Do you feel tired on weekdays?" Ding Xirui asked.

The woman nodded:

"Well, I feel sleepy every day, and I always feel tired."

"Do you usually feel dizzy?" Ding Xirui asked.

"Indeed." The woman nodded.

Ding Lin and the others had a preliminary conclusion in their minds that this lady might be suffering from "anemia".

"Madam, I need to take your pulse to determine your condition." Lin Mingxuan said.

"it is good."

Ding Xirui opened the medicine box and took out the pulse pillow and silk handkerchief.
