Practicing Medical Skills in a Small Clinic novel Chapter 251

Chapter 251: Chapter 150: Gaining Two Medical Skills in a Row, Definitely Not a Minor Illness (Part 3)

Having a caring girlfriend is really good.

When you’re sick, someone is there to care and ask if you’re warm, someone to look after you.

"After I finished cleaning, he still said his stomach hurt. I quickly went to the pharmacy to buy painkillers and gave them to him at home. It seemed to have some effect, and he fell asleep afterward. This morning, when he woke up, he still said his stomach hurt. We initially planned to go to the health station for treatment. When we got here, we really didn’t want to go any further, and seeing that your clinic had quite a few people, we assumed the medical skills were good, so we came in."

The girl didn’t have much guile.

Someone with a little scheming wouldn’t say the last sentence to a doctor.

"What painkiller did you take at the pharmacy?"

"I think it’s called A... aspirin!"

After thinking for a while, the girl remembered the name of the drug.

Li Jingsheng’s forehead was lined with frustration; the pharmacist’s skill level at the pharmacy was indeed varied, from high to low.

Common painkillers include ibuprofen, aspirin, acetaminophen, and so on.

As long as the patient has a headache, leg pain, or stomach pain, they use a universal formula for medication. Apart from being particularly cautious about contraindications, they generally don’t care about anything else.

In short, it’s best if the medicine works for the patient. If it doesn’t work, they quickly go to the hospital.

The biggest advantage of this pharmacy’s business model is almost no risk.

Unless the medication given to the patient is expired or problematic, and something happens, then there’s no way out. Just compensate as needed.

"Blood pressure is slightly high; body temperature is feverish at 38.6 degrees; heart rate is slightly fast."

After measuring the three basic vital signs, Li Jingsheng realized that the patient’s problem wasn’t a minor one.

"You vomited once after coming home last night, right?"

"No, I threw up today as well. Just probably from not eating anything, he retched twice, and what came out was yellow-green bitter liquid."

After vomiting most of the gastric contents, there’s only stomach acid left to expel.

If it has a green tint, it’s mostly bile.

The color of the expelled bile isn’t fixed.

It could be yellow, white, grass green, or even red.

This patient vomiting stomach acid and bile further indicates that Li Jingsheng’s judgment is correct.

It’s by no means a simple illness.

What could it be?

He couldn’t help but ponder deeply, making a preliminary diagnosis based on the patient’s causes, symptoms, and disease course.

Currently, his gastroenterology diagnosis has reached the Minor Achievement level, which is quite advantageous.

Attending level in gastroenterology diagnosis can basically handle most diseases in this field.

Acute gastroenteritis? Gastrointestinal perforation?

"Lie down on the examination bed inside; let me check your stomach," he said to the patient.

"Can it be treated?"

The patient glared and asked.

"Only by identifying the cause can we prescribe the right medicine. Right now, I can’t answer you."

Li Jingsheng understood why the young man was a bit abrupt in his dialogue.

Enduring the pain, naturally, leads to impatience.

Clinically, some patients with neurological problems exhibit significant personality changes and don’t cooperate with doctors for examination and treatment. This is common.

It often requires the use of sedatives and even binding the person for treatment.

"After this long examination, you can’t even find out what’s wrong? What is this shabby clinic? Forget it; we’re not getting treated."

The young man suddenly erupted, making Li Jingsheng feel somewhat baffled.

"If you don’t trust the skills of this small clinic, you can go to a big hospital for a check-up. But certainly, don’t play doctor yourself and take some medicine at home. His illness doesn’t seem minor; now the fever is quite severe, delaying any longer might lead to trouble."

Li Jingsheng didn’t get angry because of the patient’s bad attitude.

Instead, he advised them to hurry to a big hospital for treatment.

The girl mentioned that she had planned to get treated at the health station, indicating that they are very familiar with the local environment.

The health station’s capability is strong, but based on intuition, it may not be able to treat this patient.
