Traditional Chinese Medicine: You Prescribed Me Laxatives for a Cough?

"Doctor, I've been coughing for days. How can I get better?"

"I'll prescribe a dose of laxatives. You'll be right as rain tomorrow."

"I have a cough, and you're prescribing laxatives?"

After spending the whole night on the toilet, the cough really did go away. He was too scared to cough, because every cough meant changing his pants.

"Miracle doctor, I have a terrible headache. What should I do?"

"Go to an amusement park and ride the big pendulum five times!"

"What? Won't that make it hurt even more?"

But after the patient really did ride the big pendulum five times, he couldn't believe it: his headache was actually gone! What a miracle doctor!
