Practicing Medical Skills in a Small Clinic novel Chapter 243

Chapter 243: Chapter 148: Jaw Abscess, A Man’s Difficulty

"Are there symptoms like night sweats during sleep, diarrhea, or nausea?"

Li Jingsheng asked calmly.

"My appetite has always been poor, and recently I’ve had some diarrhea. It’s nothing serious, right?"

She asked indifferently.

"Please wait a moment." After speaking to the patient, Li Jingsheng turned his head towards the counter. "Sister Tang, could you please come and help this female patient check her lymph nodes?"

"Okay!"

She said something to a customer who was buying medicine, then walked over quickly.

Probably in a hurry to get back to the counter to sell medicine, she signaled to the young female patient, then reached out to touch her neck.

"Hey, wait! Put on gloves. It’s more hygienic this way!"

Li Jingsheng quickly stopped her and handed her transparent film gloves.

When performing surgery on a patient, rubber gloves are generally worn. They are thin, but still affect the tactile sensation of the hands.

Film gloves are thinner, have minimal impact on the tactile sensation of the fingers, and are very inexpensive.

The only downside is that they are easily torn.

But for conducting surface medical examinations, they are completely sufficient.

Tang Ping nodded knowingly, put on the gloves, and examined the patient’s neck lymph nodes. Actually, in most mammals that have hair, the cervical lymph nodes are the most abundant.

For example, common poultry and pigs are like this.

When conditions allow, it’s best to eat less chicken neck skin and pork neck meat, also known as "slot head meat."

If you have to eat them, you can remove the lymph nodes before cooking.

Because lymph nodes are an important part of the immune system, various viruses, bacteria, and toxins invade, and lymph nodes are the most formidable warriors, also serving as the main battlefield. Over time, lymph nodes accumulate toxins and harmful substances.

Eating them will definitely have a significant adverse impact on human health.

While Tang Ping was examining the patient’s neck lymph nodes, the patient expressed discomfort.

"There is swelling of the lymph nodes on both sides of the neck."

Tang Ping looked at Li Jingsheng.

"Check her axillary lymph nodes as well."

Li Jingsheng’s expression became more serious.

When Tang Ping checked the patient’s underarms, she repeatedly laughed, "It tickles, I’m ticklish..."

"Just bear with it for a moment; the examination will be over soon."

After the examination was complete, Tang Ping’s expression became much more solemn.

"Boss, I just examined her; there’s swelling in both her neck and axillary lymph nodes."

"You can go back to work!"

Li Jingsheng nodded.

"Miss, please register your name and contact number."

"Why do I have to register for buying oral ulcer medicine? I don’t need to register when I buy from a pharmacy!"

The patient seemed very cautious.

"You also mentioned that it’s a pharmacy, and we are a clinic, equivalent to a hospital’s outpatient department. The nature is definitely different. Don’t worry, we’re just following the regulations from higher authorities that require patient registration. We won’t leak any patient privacy."
