Xiaowang, male, 23 years old, from Luliang region of Shanxi Province. He is a chef at a restaurant. Due to long-term work in the humid kitchen environment, half a year ago, he felt discomfort in his calves when walking, with symptoms including distension, soreness, pain, numbness in toes, and coldness. These symptoms were relieved after rest, but he did not take them seriously. In the past half month, the symptoms worsened, so he sought medical treatment at a local hospital where he was immediately diagnosed with thromboangiitis obliterans (Buerger's disease). After a week of hospitalization, he experienced severe pain in his five toes, ulceration, and could not sleep day and night. Painkillers administered by intramuscular injection allowed him to rest for only 1-2 hours. After ineffective treatment locally, he eventually found the Shanxi Yikang Thromboangiitis Hospital through inquiries.
Upon visiting, Xiaowang had ulcers on his five toes. His wounds were treated and dressed, but he appeared emotionally low and unwilling to talk. After being admitted, he received traditional Chinese medicine treatments for thromboangiitis, including oral Chinese herbal medicine and patent medicines [thrombolytic capsules, blood-activating and stasis-resolving capsules, wound-healing capsules]. Additionally, injections into the femoral artery were given alongside intravenous drips for vasodilation, thrombolysis, and blood circulation improvement [after wound dressing changes]. The next day, during the nurse's rounds, the patient said that he hadn't slept so soundly in a long time, and the wound pain had lessened. Anti-inflammatory drugs were used, and the wounds were dressed [with Pulse No.2 ointment applied]. On the first day of admission, the patient slept for ten hours. By the second day, he seemed like a different person, talking and laughing, actively greeting doctors and nurses. After three days of admission, the pain disappeared; seven days later, the necrotic tissue fell off. After one course of treatment, a middle toe amputation surgery was performed. A month later, the wound was completely healed, and after consolidating treatment for another course, he was discharged. When the patient was processing discharge procedures, he told the nurse: "At first, I didn't believe you could cure me, thinking your hospital wasn't effective. Now, looking back, I was foolish and almost lost my feet. Without the Shanxi Yikang Thromboangiitis Hospital, I would have lost my feet." He urged all thromboangiitis patients to seek treatment at Yikang if they have such diseases.
