When seeing patients in the outpatient clinic, I have gradually “been” brought to a strong realization that most patients have the perception that diseases need to be treated with medication and that doctors who do not prescribe medication are usually perfunctory and irresponsible. In fact, through my own personal experience, my family’s experience and more than 10 years of outpatient experience, I still deeply appreciate that most diseases are self-healing, and many kinds of diseases do not require medication at all, and medication is only applicable to a certain range and conditions, so the concept of rational use of medication is also something that people themselves should pay attention to. I would like to tell you about my own and my family’s experience with the disease, to let you know what kind of role drugs play in these diseases that we have personally experienced and that I am more familiar with, or what the prognosis of the disease will be without drugs in the end. When I was a child, I had a lot of colds and flu, and because of the high fever, my parents used to take me to get penicillin, which we thought was a very necessary and important medicine at that time as we did not know anything about medicine. But as most people now know, colds basically get better on their own, and when the symptoms are severe, they can be treated symptomatically with some medications, which only play a supporting role. After I became a teenager and focused on exercise, my health became very good and I rarely got sick. However, after I became a doctor, I had a stomach ulcer because it was difficult to eat and rest regularly for a while, and I was found to have a Helicobacter infection in my stomach. This was the most effective medication I can remember, and almost the only one I have ever received. The effect of this drug is very similar to the effective killing effect of penicillin on bacteria that we used to see in the clinic, and this is the situation that I think needs the most drug treatment. But we should be conscious of the fact that if, after cure, you still fail to eat regularly and take care of your stomach, it is basically only a matter of time before your gastric ulcer recurs, and at this point, there are no drugs that can play a preventive role, but actually rely on the prevention of a healthy lifestyle. Then there was a long drive of about 14 hours for two consecutive days, resulting in damage to the lumbar discs, (in fact, I had discomfort in my back before, because I did not pay much attention to sitting) for more than a month, the right leg lifting is restricted, the time to do surgery can not be too long. I did not go to the X-ray or MRI for the treatment of back pain, because I am engaged in orthopedic medicine, I know I have some lumbar disc bulge, it is not a big deal, but since then, pay more attention to sitting, exercise the low back muscle, strengthen the overall body exercise (I mainly rely on playing ball), after about 2-3 years, only rarely will feel the back pain again. Throughout the process, I did not use any medication or instrumentation, because the discomfort caused by low back pain can be adjusted by certain methods, such as rest, activities, and not bending over to carry heavy objects, and I did not feel that it particularly affected my life. Now I still drive long distances, for example, last year in Europe, often driving alone for several days in a row, averaging more than 500 kilometers a day, but I no longer have the obvious symptoms I had before. When I was about 26 years old, I was particularly excited to play basketball once, and I had to do too much continuous grabbing of rebounds and other actions. After the game, I found that I had bilateral heel pain, which rapidly increased within a few days. The intense pain in the morning when I first stepped on the ground, and the unbearable pain of standing up and “tapping” my central nervous system during surgery made the word pain an important part of my life. It was then that I got a first-hand understanding of the pain level of “achalasia”, which can be so painful and last so long. But because I had some tolerance and was mentally too lazy to spend more time treating such a damaging disease, I resorted to wearing air cushioned shoes for about 4 years in total. I couldn’t wear leather shoes at all during that time, and I had to buy shoes with soft and thick soles, which caused me to pay special attention to the comfort of shoes during that time. The pain of this disease was repeated several times in terms of strength and weakness, but in the end, the result obtained was: complete self-healing. The whole process was because there was a shockwave therapy device inside the section, which was convenient to use, and went to do it 2 times, and found that it had some effect, but could not be cured quickly, and because I did not have extra energy and time, I never went back to treatment. Within the first 1 year, he could hardly play, but later, as the pain was reduced, he gradually and slowly resumed playing badminton, and began to have an impact, and finally slowly did not feel the impact. When I thought the disease might be with me for life, it miraculously healed and I gradually found myself able to wear ordinary leather shoes. This experience has given me a special insight into sports strain diseases: you must pay attention to early maintenance and rest, of course, do not have to take it too seriously, relax, as long as it does not affect life, do not arbitrarily use closed, small needle knife and other methods that may change the self-healing process of the disease to treat, (because I most often see in the clinic is after these treatments and the pain worsens or does not heal ) Stick to a healthy lifestyle and the pain will eventually leave you for good. Once you get too anxious and over-treat, you are likely to end up with a different outcome than I did. Sports injuries are inevitable for those who love sports. I rarely get seriously injured while playing sports, but surprisingly, I also sprained the anterior talofibular ligament in my ankle by stepping on someone else’s foot during a basketball game, and the symptoms at that time were a distinct tearing sound with constant severe pain and swelling. 2 weeks later, I was able to walk on the ground with my foot and no longer relied on double crutches. After the injury, I asked my colleagues to help me see the injury, some of them suggested surgery to stitch it up, saying that the laxity was obvious and the ligament was completely torn, but I really didn’t know the seriousness of this injury at that time, (I didn’t have many patients with this kind of injury at that time) and I didn’t want to undergo surgery at all, so my colleagues helped me to put on a cast, because the pain increased after 3 days and I couldn’t sleep, and I was forced to remove it and replace it with a bilateral brace with a splint for protection. It took about 2 months. The inconvenience of living during that time also added to my problems, but I persevered. In particular, the inability to stop working kept me confined to the ward duty room for several weeks. The obvious pain in my ankle joint every day when I went into surgery often made me feel sick inside. After coming off surgery, hurrying to ice and staying with my foot elevated became my main spare time during that time. Four months after the injury, I felt almost well enough to try to start playing badminton after a few jogs without any particular discomfort, but found that I had not fully recovered at all, and the instability in the front and back of the ankle could cause severe pain when I stepped forward, so I gave up badminton and could only run and swim for exercise. It was only until about 10 months after the injury that I found that the swelling in my outer ankle had almost completely disappeared and I could gradually resume strenuous sports like badminton. But less fortunately, less than a year later, in the process of playing badminton, because the shoelace was not tied properly, the other ankle also sprained, but because of the first experience, know that this time is not as serious as the previous one, rushed to ice, with splint brace protection, about 3 months, the pain and swelling is not obvious. Then gradually return to sports. This year in the hospital-wide badminton singles tournament, I won third place, and I never had pain or sprains again, and I did not use drugs or instruments to treat the two injuries. It has been proven that such injuries can heal themselves with proper conservative treatment. I also hope that patients with similar injuries will be as lucky as I was. But one needs to stick to the right path of recovery, as I did, and over-anxiousness and taking it lightly may not yield good results. Later, as I passed the age of 30, I found myself more susceptible to sports injury disorders as my exercise level gradually decreased. I had a chronic injury to the wrist joint and tendinitis of the extensor tendons in the back of the hand, the former had me in a long period of time affecting the swing and power of badminton, the latter has not healed, and occasionally with the mouse for a long time when there will be obvious pain, but in addition to the occasional ice, I did not use any other drugs or equipment treatment, because the previous experience of multiple injuries let me know They simply can not make any waves, attention and proper exercise will greatly reduce the discomfort they bring me and the impact on life. I also had a period of time when I suddenly found myself with some degree of pain in many areas after exercise. After blood tests, it was confirmed that my blood uric acid was elevated, and after about 2 years of reasonable control of my diet (of which there were 2 recurrences), my uric acid was normalized and this inexplicable pain in many areas disappeared. Last year, because I played more badminton and demanded more of myself, I had anterior knee pain (mainly caused by patellofemoral cartilage and synovial damage), which many people have experienced, and I did not rush to use medication or injections, but insisted on doing static squats (which are introduced in my article) and other strength exercises, with appropriate control of the amount of exercise, especially the appropriate reduction of half-squat movements, which also minimizes the movements that cause pain. I also tried to reduce the number of movements that caused pain. Sure enough, after about 1 year, the symptoms disappeared completely. During this process, I was also anxious because it affected playing the game, but my previous experience and clinical experience told me that I must stick to the right path. So, good results chose me too. Now I can play badminton freely again. Having said so much about my experience above, it does not mean that everyone who learns from me will definitely get the same results as I did. Because the disease is different from person to person, I just want to remind all patients, in fact, many sports injuries can be self-healing, do not rush to intervene and affect its self-healing process, proper attention and rest is the most worthy of persistent treatment. Other medications and instrumentation are often just an adjunct, do not take the role of drugs too seriously, and do not feel that doctors who do not prescribe medication is irresponsible. I often prescribe only “exercise” to my patients, and I often tell my patients about my experience and ask them to refer to it. In fact, Hippocrates, who is respected as the “father of medicine” in the West, said more than 2,000 years ago: “The self-healing power of the human body is the real panacea for disease. The German National Research Institute also reported in a 2001 study that the human body can produce more than 10,000 kinds of medicines if all the substances that can cure diseases are called medicines. In other words, it is a concept that everyone should establish to face the body’s ability to heal itself, and I am not the only doctor who has seen this. Through my personal experience, I hope to show that these kinds of diseases are not at all overwhelming and that they can be cured eventually with reasonable treatment. Don’t be burdened by your illness, and life can be more enjoyable.
