Practicing Medical Skills in a Small Clinic novel Chapter 321

Chapter 321: Chapter 174: Professor Wu Is Interesting, Finally Healed

"Um... that was indeed a bit impulsive of me. I promise, I won’t do such a thing again." The woman looked embarrassed.

The man beside her accompanied with a smiling face.

Doctors have never been a service industry; it’s just that some patients and their families can’t get their positions right.

Encountering Bone Setting treatments like those by Li Jingsheng, which are almost monopolistic, if they don’t treat them, not even a complaint to the medical department or the health committee will help. Treating patients inherently carries certain risks for doctors.

If doctors believe the operational risk is too great, they have every reason to let patients choose ’conservative treatment’.

Besides, there are various other defensive medical practices.

"Sometimes I truly wish family members could better understand how hard it is for doctors. Our Dr. Li has already treated nearly thirty patients this morning. If he works overtime to treat you, other patients could similarly demand overtime. Then Dr. Li wouldn’t get lunch, nor would he rest, rendering him too exhausted to treat other patients in the afternoon, right?"

Nurse Li Li said on the side.

"We didn’t consider it thoroughly, sorry!"

The patient apologized for his wife after hearing this.

This was already quite good.

Some family members and patients, relying on ’connections’, cause a ruckus sufficient to make younger female doctors cry.

"Teacher, his tibial fracture is very severe, I worry that the effectiveness of manual realignment might be unsatisfactory."

Li Jingsheng showed the film to Doctor Xu.

"Look here, mainly this part, I’m concerned about forming bone fragments."

Manual Bone Setting cannot treat all bone injuries.

It cannot treat comminuted fractures.

Severe fractures accompanied by certain joint dislocations cannot be treated either and require surgical internal fixation.

After examining the film seriously, Doctor Xu furrowed his brows.

"Come, let me feel it."

He personally palpated the patient’s bones and, after pondering for a moment, said, "You’ve come from afar, which is not easy, you can attempt a manual realignment, but if the result is unsatisfactory, then surgery treatment will be the only option."

"Okay, okay, please take the trouble!"

The patient found that complaints were ineffective and his attitude had completely changed since noon.

"Xiaoli, you handle his realignment; I’ll take care of this part of the bone." Doctor Xu said to Li Jingsheng.

"No problem."

Li Jingsheng was only one course short of mastering massage therapy, but he could entirely handle the repositioning of the broken tibia.
