NBA: The best team doctor in history

Chapter 38: Du Laoer is waiting for the emperor to return!
"Okay, how much does it cost? Name your price!"

Black guys like Oden really have no financial management awareness. He was just about to take out his salary card to pay.

Jiang Muyan chuckled:
"Jiang Ming is joking. He will treat it when he wants to. When he doesn't want to treat it, it's worth a fortune. Am I right?"

Jiang Ming looked at me with a look that said, "You understand me." After drying his hands, he said:
"Yes, there are priorities in treating illnesses, and doctors and patients need to be tolerant of each other. Who will treat your cervical spine at this late hour? Besides, you are not a stay-at-home guy like me. What serious problems can an athlete like you have with your cervical spine? I will slowly treat you after I get the job."

Oden finally understood what Jiang Ming meant:
"Sorry, I didn't think about it so much."

Then he ignored Jiang Ming's question about joining the team. If Jiang Ming had said it separately, Oden would have definitely realized that he was actually going to join the Trail Blazers, and then he would have said:
I'll have management give you a contract now! You must join us!

He now just wants to feel the effect of tonight's treatment:
"I want to measure my leg length again now. What you did just now seemed to have lengthened my right knee. Has the 2 centimeters returned?"

Jiang Ming stuffed the cupping bottles and jars back into the suitcase and looked up and said, "Don't think too much. Although bone correction can really increase height, it is impossible in your case.

Bone correction can lengthen bones and correct abnormal body postures such as hunchback, mild scoliosis of the spine, and forward leaning, thereby achieving the effect of "growing taller."

"And let me tell you, it's actually not painful for most people to have their bones set. In most cases, bone setting is not accompanied by pain. Pain only occurs when there is a local inflammatory reaction. If an athlete like you with thick skin and flesh cries out in pain, it means that the inflammation is very serious, so you will have to continue to take anti-inflammatory drugs in the future."

“The treatment of uneven legs and damaged cartilage is a long process, so take your time.

Measure again in a month, and you’ll probably see what you expect.”

"Finally, you can call your agent to pick you up now. The treatment for tonight is over."

"it is good!"

Oden quickly got down from the chair and walked around. He was limping in the afternoon, but after wearing height-increasing insoles and doing Jiang's physical therapy for a night, he was able to move as well as before, and could even jump a little. He was so happy that he quickly called his agent to tell him the good news.

"Tell Du Lao Er to wait on Twitter. The Emperor is coming back!"

Sean was also surprised. Everyone saw that Oden couldn't walk normally in the afternoon, so he was very confused as to why Jiang Ming didn't use this technique directly during the consultation. It didn't require any equipment.

"JIANG, if you demonstrate this bone-setting technique at a consultation, wouldn't it be an instant success?"

Jiang Ming stuffed the last bamboo jar into the suitcase, and then placed the plaster and casserole for tomorrow's use in the infirmary cabinet:

"No, this technology is not widely accepted here. There is no need to sensationalize or explain it for a long time. What the patient says is the most real, isn't it? Besides, bone setting will be safer and more effective after acupuncture and moxibustion. Just let the patient get the correct treatment."

But the fact is, if Jiang Ming could cure Oden directly through bone setting, he would have given Oden a lot of massage this morning. The main reason is that his condition is much more complicated than Yi Jianlian's half-dislocated shoulder. If he could really do it, wouldn't he have seized the opportunity to show off?
Now Oden can walk normally, but his feet-inward gait is not only due to bone-setting, but also to the acupuncture and moxibustion he had done before. It can even be said that both are indispensable.

If he took the risk of trying to correct the bones directly at the consultation site, it was hard to say whether he could get Oden, a fat man weighing more than 200 pounds, to lift up his legs and hand them over to him with complete confidence. After all, correcting the bones requires the patient to completely trust the doctor and be completely relaxed.

Jiang Muyan was helping Jiang Ming pack up these fragrant bamboo jars, but she was holding it in for a long time. When Oden called his agent, he finally asked:
"Um. Jiang Ming, do you think it's too late, so you gave up the cupping? It's okay, we can wait for you."

Seeing that she was still thinking about the cupping she had known since the beginning, Jiang Ming smiled and said:

"I've already done too much treatment for Oden tonight. Cupping is more effective for back, back, and shoulder strain, but not so effective for the lower body. And one disadvantage of cupping is that you can't touch water for 8 hours after using it, which means you can't take a shower."

"understood!"

Jiang Muyan suddenly understood that black athletes like Oden would stink if they didn't take a shower for a day, which means cupping is best done after taking a shower.

"But these are not the main problems. The main problem is that he has to play a game tomorrow night. The first day after cupping, the human body will be weak. Although this weakness has little effect on people who work normally, it has a big impact on people like him who have to do intense exercise." Jiang Muyan nodded and said:

"Once he becomes physically weak, his performance on the field will also be affected. If his performance is not good, people will indirectly think that your treatment was unsuccessful?"

"Bingo!"

Jiang Ming stretched out his hand, and Jiang Muyan naturally cooperated and high-fived him.

Sean smirked beside him:
"You two Asian doctors are working together better and better."

"whee."

"I'll show you how to do cupping next time. Now go back to the hotel and get some sleep!"

Jiang Ming and Jiang Muyan smiled at each other, then the four of them turned off the lights in the infirmary and left the gym together.

Among the four, Oden, who had slept for a long time, was the most energetic. When his agent came to pick him up, he danced to the car in the style of Michael Jackson. Show's agent was stunned. How could he dance?
Jiang Ming directly and sternly stopped him:

"If you sprain your ankle, I will stick a needle in your neck before I am kicked out by Jensen tomorrow."

Oden was so scared that he stopped humming and bent down to get into the car.

Sean was amused by Jiang Ming's humor:

"Follow the doctor's orders!"

The next day.

Trail Blazers game day.

The Trail Blazers, who have a good record at the start of the season, will face the challenge of the Seattle SuperSonics at home.

As the second largest city in the Pacific Northwest after Seattle, Portland has long regarded the Supersonics as its arch-rival.

The Sonics have been at the bottom of the Western Conference since the start of this season, and there have been rumors that the team will be disbanded next season. So in order to preserve this old team, the team management landed in Portland in the early morning, striving to win tonight's game.

The media also photographed Supersonics players such as Chris Wilcox, Jeff Green, Nick Collison, Kevin Durant, Delonte West and others going to the training hall early for training.

This year's No. 2 pick Kevin Durant was caught in an interview and said that the team will restore the confidence of fans and shareholders tonight and is determined to lead the Supersonics back to the top.

"So do you think Oden, the No. 1 pick, will play?"

"I don't know. We will beat them whether we play or not. We want to win and become a strong team!" Durant waved his fist in a rather depressed manner.

"Then if he goes on the court, do you think he can pose a threat to you?"

Durant made a disdainful expression and shook his head:
"Nonono, you can look at the data yourself. Let him know tonight who is the real No. 1 pick this year."
