Chapter 6 Amputation
It's just a day to guess, and it's a day to be honest. I can't find out what's going on in the laid-off blacklist anyway, so it's better to go out to the clinic with peace of mind.
Subconsciously, Bian Mu believed that his professional skills were impeccable, and that he would not have to worry about being laid off or resigning.
Just after eleven o'clock, a male patient finally arrived.
He looks like he is in his early forties, but he is not very old but his face is full of wrinkles, his hair is dry and one-third white, and his eyes are sad. At first glance, he looks like a working class with a hard life.
The patient came in in a wheelchair. The wheelchair is free and public in our hospital. I really don’t know how they came to the hospital. The patient’s right foot was placed crosswise on the wheelchair support and was half bandaged. The front foot was half cast. There was just a piece of medical gauze lightly applied to the heel. It looked like it had just been reviewed in some department.
The person pushing the wheelchair was a lady in her thirties, with a grimace on her face and plain clothes. It was not clear that she had anything to do with the patient.
A girl in her late twenties followed closely behind, carrying a large non-woven bag filled with various test report documents. She also held an MRI test result in her arms. It looks like I got it not long ago.
The girl gently placed the MRI report in her hand on the corner of the table, and gently delivered the registration form and outpatient manual to Bian Mu.
"Trauma?" As he asked, Bian Mu casually opened the top clinic manual and glanced at it a few times.
Several of the outpatient manuals were yellowed and deformed. Apparently, the patient had been to many hospitals many times, including Lijin Central Hospital, where the Department of Surgery and Orthopedics are very well-known.
"The heel is inflamed and rotten, and it has not been cured for a long time. Professors from several tertiary hospitals have diagnosed it... and said that amputation is necessary... My dad is not willing to give up... and... the surgery fee is quite expensive, and we have to pay for it." The cost..." The girl should have received higher education, and the logic of the lawsuit is quite clear.
"You should apply for surgery! If you take a step back, you should also enroll in orthopedics. Why did you think of applying for me?" He asked with a smile while browsing all the records in the outpatient manual.
"They all said the same thing, and the final conclusion was that amputation would be considered. My mother was so frightened that she cried. A female cleaning lady at your hospital couldn't bear it. She privately suggested that we call your number and try our luck. She also specifically told us to do it. Keep a low profile and don't alert your colleagues." The girl was very articulate and explained the cause and effect clearly.
Smiling slightly, Bian Mu motioned to the girl to put all the medical records, diagnosis reports, test reports...all on the table so that he could check them carefully.
"The amount of medical records is quite large. I have to check it for a while. You guys sit there and take a break. There are disposable paper cups over there. You can get some hot water to drink."
"Okay! I'm sorry to trouble you!" After being polite, the girl put her parents aside, and then used a disposable paper cup to get half a cup of hot water for her mother. She and her father didn't drink a sip, quietly. Sit there and wait for Bianmu to say something.
More than half an hour later, Bian Mu went through all the medical records.
The third department of traditional Chinese medicine usually focuses on internal medicine diagnosis, and Bian Mu has very few patients at hand. He has no special examination equipment for surgery and emergency departments.
"I have to go out and borrow a set of examination equipment. You guys should sit down for a while!" After that, Bian Mu went to the convenience clinic to borrow something from a nurse he knew well.
"He's too young! It's deserted here. There's not even a nurse. Is it okay?" The patient's wife was a little doubtful of Bian Mu's medical skills and said a few words to her daughter.
"Let me say surgery! You are so scared, and my dad refuses to accept his fate. He is in a hurry and seeks medical treatment. Anyway, we have searched all the famous doctors we should find. Let's try to let him take a look. Seeing how calm and relaxed he is, He shouldn't be messing around." The girl still had some illusions about Bian Mu.
"Oh! It's all my fault for being careless and dragging you two down." As he spoke, the male patient let out a long sigh.
A family of three was discussing Bian Mu there. With a soft "squeak" sound, Bian Mu opened the door and came back, holding two dark green medical disinfection bags in his hands.
The girl quickly stood up, pushed the wheelchair to the bedside, and asked softly: "Do you want to help my dad to the bed?"
"No! The patient just needs to sit down. It may hurt a little later due to touching the depth of the wound. Please try to bear with it." As he spoke, Bian Mu skillfully opened one of the smaller disinfection bags and put on examination gloves. , examination forceps in the left hand, medical scissors in the right hand, squatting half-crouched to start the surgical wound inspection.
All inspection operations look very standardized, meticulous, and neat...
The girl had long been accustomed to this. Seeing the young male doctor in front of her was so skillful and neat, she couldn't help but look at her mother, her eyes full of surprise and approval.
The patient's wife was immediately refreshed when she saw her daughter's expression of surprise and joy, and her eyes looking at Bian Mu were full of gentle hope.
Bian Mu checked very carefully. Although he tried to control the operating procedures as gently as possible, because the wound on the patient's foot was too deeply decayed, many nerves were touched multiple times. The male patient clenched his teeth in pain, and after a while, the top of his head was already See sweat.
Fortunately, the patient's will was strong enough, he gritted his teeth and never made a sound.
…
"Okay! I've been infected for a long time. There are medical grounds for experts to recommend amputation. You have to understand them." As he spoke, Bian Mu took off the examination gloves, stepped on the switch with his foot, and threw it into the medical garbage can.
Upon hearing this, the patient's family of three all had expressions of despair on their faces.
"I haven't finished speaking yet! Don't be nervous. Fortunately, you didn't sign the surgery agreement at the last moment. Don't worry! There is still a cure, but... you must promise not to make any announcement afterward." Bian Mu warned a few words with a serious expression.
Hearing this, the patient's family of three were overjoyed and unprepared. The whole family stood there in a daze, unable to say a word for a long while.
"What? You can't trust me?" Bian Mu walked to the table and sat down and said with a smile.
"No, no! Can you really heal my father's foot? Is there really no need for amputation?!" The girl was still a little doubtful after all.
"Doctors are not joking. I will prescribe some medicine first. You go to the pharmacy to get it. Your father's foot injury cannot be delayed any longer. I will give him some medicine and seal the necrotic part of the wound first." As he spoke, Bian Mu typed on the keyboard and wrote a prescription for Chinese medicine.
The girl was stunned for a long time, then suddenly straightened up and knelt down towards Bian Mu.
"Thank you, Doctor Bian, you are really the great savior of our family! Your great kindness will be remembered by our whole family for the rest of our lives." She was so emotional that the girl couldn't help but cry a little in her willing voice.
Putting the printed prescription on the table, Bian Mu quickly stood up, helped the girl up and gave her a few words of persuasion.
"It's just your job. Calm down your emotions and go get some medicine!"
"Okay, okay! I'm so excited! Thank you, thank you..." After that, the girl grabbed the prescription and ran out to the pharmacy to get medicine.
