Practicing Medical Skills in a Small Clinic novel Chapter 244

Chapter 244: Chapter 148: Jaw Abscess, A Man’s Difficulties_2

This is to prevent the patient from getting anxious.

"So young and already infected with a minor ailment, sigh, such a pity. Many young girls don’t know how to protect themselves."

Tang Ping shook her head and sighed after hearing this.

"She probably doesn’t know at all, and when the CDC’s test results come out, she might collapse."

Li Jingsheng sighed as well.

The disease is always so cruel and merciless, never sparing because of the patient’s age or gender.

"Boss Li, the sign has been installed for you, please check it. If everything’s fine, I’ll come by to settle the payment this evening."

The advertising store owner walked in and said to him.

Many business people are rather superstitious, making only collections in the afternoon. The first deal of the morning, even if it doesn’t turn a profit, is worth closing if it breaks even.

The advertising store owner suggested settling the payment in the evening to avoid upsetting the customer by asking for payment in the morning.

Li Jingsheng went out to have a look and was quite satisfied.

"The craftsmanship is exquisite! I’ll pay the balance right now, so there’s no need to make you come again."

He settled the payment on the spot.

He didn’t believe in these things.

Just after sending off the advertising store owner, a patient arrived.

A woman in her late thirties came in clutching her right cheek.

"Doctor, my right face is incredibly painful, can it be treated?"

She showed a pained expression even while speaking.

"How did it happen? Did the pain start suddenly?"

Li Jingsheng noticed that the woman’s right cheek was severely swollen.

The first suspicion was naturally that she had been hit by her husband.

A woman fears marrying the wrong man.

Some women marry violent husbands who beat them at the slightest displeasure. Such occurrences are not uncommon.

"I don’t know what’s going on either. Four days ago, I felt some pain eating here. I thought it would get better in a couple of days, but it got worse and today I even feel a foul smell in my mouth. The last couple of days, I can’t even touch this area when brushing my teeth."

She pointed to the molar area on her right lower jaw.

Such a condition should ideally be treated by a dentist.

But for Li Jingsheng, every surgical patient is of utmost value.

Since she came to see him, he certainly didn’t hesitate to take the case.

"Let me examine you first."

He pressed lightly on her right cheek and jaw.

"Ouch... pain, it hurts a lot!"

The woman immediately cried out in pain.

"Feels like there’s a lump; let’s check inside! Open your mouth!"

Li Jingsheng took out a small flashlight.

The woman had a very pained expression when opening her mouth, and could only open to about two-thirds of the normal width.

The area between the cheek muscle and mucosa was noticeably swollen.

There was evidence of tooth decay in the first molar on the right lower jaw.

Oral inflammation with redness and swelling like this is often related to apical periodontitis.
