Practicing Medical Skills in a Small Clinic novel Chapter 457

Chapter 457: Chapter 219: Saving Two Families, Sought-After Dr. Li (Part 2)

If we maintain a good attitude, they might reduce the expenses for nutritional supplements and lost wages.

Forty minutes later, the anesthesiologist came to give the patient a thorough examination, confirmed they met the anesthesia requirements, and then agreed to proceed.

At the critical moment of realignment, Li Jingsheng called Dr. Chen for assistance, initially applying pressure to the patient due to a certain degree of backward arching.

The degree of force required needed to be carefully controlled.

Kyphotic deformity and joint stiffness would interfere with the realignment process.

Once it was approximately aligned, Li Jingsheng implemented the rotation realignment technique.

One hand passed under the patient’s armpit, grasping the shoulder on the healthier side, then pushed forward towards the healthier direction.

The purpose of this was to stretch open the intervertebral space.

The palm of his other hand was placed between the protruding vertebrae, beside the spinous process, and then performed a large sweeping rotation.

After it was realigned three times, it was apparent that the patient’s back was no longer in the strange shape it had been.

Having checked everything was correct, Li Jingsheng breathed a long sigh of relief.

"All right, once you wake from anesthesia I’ll come back to address things. Just lie down and don’t move for now."

When Li Jingsheng said it was all right, both the family of the child responsible for the incident, and the patient’s family, smiled with joy.

This trip turned out to be the right decision.

Even though the realignment process was nerve-wracking to watch, being able to treat without surgery was simply wonderful.

"Doctor, thank you!"

"You’re welcome. You can stay and keep watch here. I’ll be outside treating other patients, call me when the patient wakes up."

Li Jingsheng continued treating other patients outside.

Doctor Xu had arrived long ago but did not get involved in this case.

Instead, he allowed Li Jingsheng to handle it entirely on his own.

After about half an hour, the family called for Li Jingsheng, saying the patient was fully awake.

Li Jingsheng went in to check on the patient.

"All right, I’ll help you sit up. Later, you’ll need a lumbar brace, and it should be worn for at least three weeks."

Helping the patient up, everyone watched anxiously.

The patient appeared overjoyed, and when Li Jingsheng let go, she continued to sit upright without any issues.

"Great, really great! Fantastic!"

"The medical skills here are truly impressive! Thanks to that doctor at Qiaobang Hospital for recommending such a good place to us."

The families beamed with delight.

At this moment, the mother of the child involved in the incident suddenly knelt before Li Jingsheng.
