How to deal with a dog bite in ancient times? Just waiting to die?
As we all know, there were many dogs in ancient times, and it was inevitable that people were bitten by dogs. So how did the ancients deal with such a situation? Can we only wait until we die? Of course not. The ancients had great wisdom to deal with it. Let's have a look.

The history of studying virus development is only one hundred years. In fact, as early as ancient China, there were many ways to deal with being bitten by dogs, which condensed the great wisdom of the ancients. It can be said that our ancestors have long been treated correctly from practice.

Ancient coping methods

Ge Hong in Jin Dynasty wrote a medical book "Elbow Reserve Emergency Prescription", which mentioned:? Is to kill the bitten dog, take brain compress, and not relapse. ? After being bitten by a dog, kill the biting dog, take out the dog's brain and apply it to the wound, and the rabies virus can be treated, so that rabies will not break out. Many people were very surprised when they first heard this practice. This practice of killing the dog to get the brain seems a bit cruel and absurd, but it turns out to be effective. In the later modern medical research, it was also found that there was a large amount of virus immune serum in dog brain tissue, which was a good medicine against rabies virus. It seems that our ancestors found an effective way to deal with rabies virus long before the discovery of rabies vaccine in modern medicine, isn't it great?

In fact, Ge Hong not only found an effective method to treat rabies in Elbow Jifang, but also proposed? It is a great relief to spend a hundred days. ? This statement is basically consistent with modern research that the incubation period of rabies is 20 to 90 days. It can be said that the accuracy of rabies research in ancient times is simply amazing.

The magical "elbow backup emergency prescription"

In this wild cloud, I have to focus on the book "Elbow Emergency Prescription", which has eight volumes, and most of the prescriptions recorded are typhoid fever, detoxification and first aid. At first glance, it feels a bit unreliable. But don't underestimate this book. The methods recorded above are actually effective remedies for curing diseases and saving lives obtained by the ancients through their own many practices. Under the backward medical conditions at that time, through repeated practice, it can be said that these useful methods are actually summarized through the treatment of actual diseases, which may not be as systematic as modern medicine, but they are all practical and effective. Tu Youyou won the Nobel Prize in Medicine for extracting artemisinin, which was actually inspired by the elbow emergency prescription.

Summarize one's point of view

In fact, the ancients not only had advanced solutions to the problem of dog bites, but also had great wisdom in many other aspects, and will continue to share relevant historical anecdotes with you in the future.

Taking history as a mirror, we can know the rise and fall. This is what Li Shimin, Emperor Taizong, said. It is with such an enlightened thought that the prosperity of the rule of Zhenguan in the Tang Dynasty came into being. Therefore, for modern people, knowing more about ancient history has a great influence on the correct formation of one's outlook on life and world. Extensive and colorful historical stories not only give people rich spiritual enjoyment, but also broaden their horizons and increase their perspectives. When there is a problem, it is possible to find a better and more suitable solution. Ye Yun thinks this is also one of the meanings of history to reality. Readers, what do you think?
