Seeing Li Xu had finished his diagnosis, Lin Guorui hurriedly asked, "How is he?"
Li Xu withdrew his hand, stood up, and said seriously,
"My diagnosis is a spring plague, with a pattern of phlegm-fire agitating the spirit and damp-turbidity obstructing the core."
"The patient's unconsciousness is due to a pestilential heat-toxin penetrating the interior. This toxic fire has scorched bodily fluids, creating phlegm that prevents the clear Yang from ascending. The damp-turbidity obstruction shows the pathogen has lodged itself in the core.
The treatment principle should be to first restore the function of the central region to eliminate dampness and resolve phlegm, thereby opening the orifices and reviving the spirit."
As Li Xu recited this string of technical terms, Lin Guorui and the other TCM doctors nodded repeatedly, their faces pensive.
But the foreign experts were completely lost.
