Practicing Medical Skills in a Small Clinic novel Chapter 471

Chapter 471: Chapter 224: Is He Drunk? Director Zhang Calls Personally

"Orthopedics rarely studies cases from urology. Isn’t this patient experiencing right-sided lower back and leg pain? Have you checked the pelvis?"

Li Jingsheng thought that starting from the pain might lead to some different discoveries.

"No, we haven’t checked! The connection to the pelvis is minimal. It’s likely the pain is caused by pressure from kidney enlargement, which I’ve encountered in several clinical cases."

Dr. Tan Shuilin had his own perspective.

Doctors request tests based on their diagnostic thought process.

Only tests that hold reference value and diagnostic significance will be requested for the patient.

Blindly and formulaically ordering a slew of tests is either the work of a novice doctor or a sign of compromised medical ethics, or perhaps due to unfulfilled task indicators imposed from above.

The two of them had already arrived at the ward during their conversation.

Since it was already past midnight, the lights in the ward were out, and the patients and their accompanying family members were resting.

"Room 37, Chen Guixiang!"

"Dr. Tan, are you here to do a test or give me an injection?"

The patient wasn’t even forty years old, but possibly due to her ailments, she was a light sleeper.

As soon as they entered the ward, this female patient awoke.

Her husband was resting by the side of her bed.

In fact, the accompanying bed beside hers could be drawn out simply by scanning a code and paying a fee.

The second hospital’s accompanying bed is 15 yuan per night.

The family might not know about this service, or they might be unwilling to spend the money.

Seeing the doctors approach, her husband quickly stood up to make room.

"We’re here to help you with an examination! How are you feeling now?"

"After you’ve administered the medication, I’m not vomiting anymore, but my stomach is still very bloated. My right leg and hip area are in a lot of pain, like being stabbed with needles, coming in waves."

The female patient noticeably displayed shortness of breath as she spoke.

It seems her lung infection hasn’t been controlled!

Li Jingsheng’s respiratory diagnostics skills were quite advanced; just by standing and listening, he could tell her lung condition.

"Can you lie on your side? Let me check your pelvis and leg bones!"

Li Jingsheng knew he couldn’t persuade Dr. Tan Shuilin to request a pelvic test for the patient.

The Bone Touching Skill could be tried at this moment.

"Husband, help me turn over."

The woman shouldn’t have much trouble turning over, but the enlargement of her kidneys would cause her pain and discomfort.

The male family member stepped in to help her turn and lie on her side.

It was evident she was in pain while turning over.

"If it hurts too much during the exam, just let me know."

Li Jingsheng wouldn’t dare to perform this Bone Touching Skill if her husband weren’t such an honest person.
