Acupuncture Helping to Overcome Sciatic Pain and Numbness Caused by Herniated Lumbar Intervertebral Disc (HIVD)

In medical institutions, often it's the daughters of the patients who accompany them during the doctor visit. If it is the sons accompanying them, they often just show up occasionally. There was a female elderly patient. She walked very slowly and hobbled slightly into the clinic. She stated that her son had brought her here from Singapore. Her son, who stood by her side, added that he had taken his mother to be treated in hospitals in Singapore. All the western doctors had said that, as she suffered from severe HIVD, she must undergo surgery. He found it unbearable to see his mother, who was over 70 years old, enduring such hardship, so he made a trip to Taiwan specifically to seek help from the Chinese medicine doctor. This patient's son had worked in a financial institution in Singapore and had a lot of connections. He had sought help from all the prestigious doctors he could find. Just as he was at his wit's end, his client in Singapore told him that he had come to Dr. Wen's clinic during his business trip because he had a chronic illness. After a few acupuncture treatments, he had recovered from the illness. So, his client suggested that he try and bring his mother here. Without hesitation, he bought the tickets for his mother to come to Taiwan.

    在醫療院所看到陪同患者家人前來看病的通常女兒居多，兒子較少，若兒子有來，通常也只有偶爾露面。有位年長的女患者就診時，走路緩慢、略微跛行進診間，說兒子帶她從新加坡過來的，兒子在一旁補充說帶媽媽看過新加坡的大醫院，西醫都說腰椎壓迫嚴重，一定要開刀，他捨不得年逾七十的母親受這種罪，特地來台請求中醫協助。患者的兒子在新加坡金融公司服務，人脈很廣，可以找的名醫都看過了，正當束手無策之際，他的新加坡客戶跟他說曾來台出差，到過Dr.Wen診所，長年舊疾針灸幾次就好了，建議他可以帶母親過來試試。他毫不猶豫就買機票安排媽媽飛過來。

    腰椎間盤是由纖維環、軟骨、髓核組成，突出壓迫累及的神經有四類：坐骨神經、股神經、閉孔神經，以及馬尾神經。最典型的是髓核壓迫坐骨神經，坐骨神經來自L4、L5，以及S1、S3的神經根，分布在從骨盆、臀、腿、足上，因為腰的受力點多在L4-5節上，所以腰椎受傷以L4L5居多，疼痛約從臀部開始，到腿足連成一直線。腰椎疾患的患者在老師的診所裡很多，常見有腰椎盤壓迫、腰椎滑脫、甚至椎弓斷裂，老師都醫治過，老師是中西醫雙執照的醫師，他的經驗裡如果大醫院說要開刀，則應屬較棘手病例，但老師認為該患者的程度不用開刀，應該可以好。扎針完畢，患者的腰疼已有緩解，雙腿痠麻到腳底板的情形也有改善，就先回酒店休息。也已跟櫃台預約一周，每天都會來治療。
