Practicing Medical Skills in a Small Clinic novel Chapter 304

After feeling it, he had a general idea.

The patient's fourth and fifth cervical interspace were obviously asymmetrical, wide on the left and narrow on the right, with the fourth spinous process deviating.

Upon further examination of the bones, there was a peeling sensation of the supraspinal ligament.

The patient's neck was tilted forward by more than 15 degrees.

The problem was basically identified.

To apply bone setting to this patient would require multiple bone-setting techniques, and a very high degree of attention to detail.

The five advanced bone-setting techniques he had learned, along with the basic bone-setting techniques, had all reached Master Level. After thorough evaluation, he believed he could challenge this case.

If he could elevate the techniques of traction extension and swing touch to the Minor Achievement level or above, his confidence in repositioning the patient would be greater.

Now, his safety assurance was about 50%.

If these advanced bone-setting techniques could reach the Minor Achievement level, the safety factor would at least reach 80%, or even higher.

Having officially joined the Second Hospital, Doctor Xu also intended to train his bone-setting skills by giving him some high-risk practice opportunities.

He believed he could quickly acquire life points.

Once he gradually elevated these bone-setting techniques to a higher level, within a month, his bone-setting proficiency could take a significant step up.

"Have you got it figured out?"

Doctor Xu asked him.

"I've figured it out. I'm somewhat confident I can reposition him successfully."

This time, Li Jingsheng answered with much more confidence.

"It's just a cervical disc repositioning. Even if there are problems with three or four segments, with your current skills, you can definitely take on the challenge. To ensure repositioning is safer and less painful for the patient, I suggest you can reposition him over three to four treatment sessions."

Upon hearing this from his teacher, Li Jingsheng's eyes brightened slightly.

Doctor Xu dared to let him treat it because he already had a reliable plan.

It made Li Jingsheng worry unnecessarily for quite some time.

Stage-based treatment is not a novel method in clinical practice. When encountering a more difficult condition or combined symptoms, doctors often take stage-based treatment approaches.

The critical issues are treated first, and once the most important problems are resolved, the non-lethal ones are addressed.

As for manual bone-setting and repositioning, what Li Jingsheng encountered was a one-time complete operation.

Repositioning through three or four treatment sessions was something he had never tried.

"Four sessions would be fine; after all, we don't live far away. As long as the treatment is safe, we don't mind coming over a few more times."

The old lady said.

"It takes nearly two hours by bus from Yanxia Lane in the north of the city to here!"

The patient's father quietly corrected from the side.

He worried that the doctor might not understand the actual situation and truly let them make such trips.

"Nobody's taking you for a mute! We live in the city, and you say it's not close? Seriously!"

The old lady was very unhappy with her husband's bluntness.
