"When you go back, make sure to eat more high-protein, low-fat foods. Things like chicken, lamb, shrimp, fish, etc. I’ve written down the dosage of the medication for you; try taking it for a few days. If it works, keep taking it. If you feel any discomfort or notice anything unusual, be sure to come to our clinic or go to the hospital for a check-up."
Li Jingsheng instructed the patient.
"Thank you, Dr. Li! The foods you mentioned are quite expensive, though. As a worker, I can’t afford to eat them every day!"
"You don’t have to eat them every day. There are more economical options, like rice, cornmeal, carrots, bananas, apples, and so on."
Li Jingsheng understood the patient’s difficulties.
Having a feast of fish and meat every meal is indeed a financial challenge for them.
"Are bananas okay? I heard that eating a lot of bananas is good for constipation; I have diarrhea, though, will eating bananas make it worse?" the patient asked.
"No worries, you won’t be treating bananas as your staple food. Besides, bananas won’t worsen your diarrhea."
"Now I feel reassured! Thank you!"
The patient happily paid the bill and left with the medication.
The cost was affordable, and the illness was diagnosed. This made the patient feel very pleased.
If the medication proves effective, she will certainly recommend Sunshine Clinic to everyone around her.
It’s inexpensive, the medical expertise is high, and the results are remarkable.
After sending off this patient, Li Jingsheng proceeded to treat the next patient.
An uncle nearing sixty, looking like he was having difficulty breathing. Every inhalation was the kind that required a lot of effort.
It was like someone had covered his nose.
In medical terms, there are several types of respiratory difficulties, and for a doctor, the first thing is to identify three main types.
The first type: difficulty in inhaling, with exhalation not significantly affected.
This often happens with colds and nasal congestion.
The second type: difficulty in exhaling, which is rarer but does occur often due to lung problems.
The third type is the most common: difficulty in both inhaling and exhaling, typically seen in respiratory failure patients or those with pneumonia, who easily experience breathing difficulties.
"Hey uncle, uncle, where are you feeling unwell?"
Li Jingsheng noticed this uncle was indeed a model among men. Despite being so ill, since entering the clinic, his gaze was fixated on Meng Luo.
He really didn’t even blink.
Now that the earlier patient has left with her medication, he was still staring blankly at Meng Luo.
Oh, men, regardless of age, will only behave when they are hung on the wall.
"Oh, oh, it’s my turn now! I just feel a bit out of breath."
The uncle snapped back to reality, not feeling embarrassed at all.
Men of this age have already developed a thick skin.
"Miss, could you take my measurements too?"
"Just measure his temperature and blood pressure, I’ll listen to his heart and lungs,"
Li Jingsheng said to Meng Luo.
"Okay!"
She responded softly and began measuring the uncle’s blood pressure and temperature.
