Practicing Medical Skills in a Small Clinic novel Chapter 706

Chapter 706: Chapter 326: Strange Misdiagnosis, Boss Zhao’s Downfall

After listening to the patient’s heart sounds, he did not find any problems.

The heart sounds were clear, without any murmurs, and the heart rate and strength were normal.

"Extend your hand, let me feel it."

He also felt the superficial veins on the back of the patient’s hand; they were soft in texture with normal elasticity. There was no thickening of the vascular walls as seen in temporal veins.

Under normal circumstances, to check for vascular hyperplasia, a CT or even an X-ray might reveal some abnormalities.

A routine blood test would also show a significant increase in white blood cells.

However, the CT scan of this patient’s head did not show any vascular abnormalities.

Li Jingsheng also felt the temporal veins of the patient.

No mistake, the elasticity was quite strong, indicative of thickened vascular walls and increased internal pressure.

"I’ll try massage therapy for you. It might not help."

He performed massage therapy on the patient’s head on the spot.

"It works, it really works! It doesn’t seem as painful now," Wen Tianqi said happily.

Li Jingsheng’s massage skills were highly advanced, very effective in promoting local blood circulation and clearing blood stasis. After his massage, immediate effects were no surprise.

After a brief massage, Wen Tianqi showed an unprecedented relaxed expression.

"I can sum up my current feeling with eight words: clear mind, complete comfort."

After saying this, he gratefully said to Li Jingsheng, "It was worth coming this time; I’ve found a solution for my work issues, and the headache problem too. Thank you, Dr. Li, for treating me. How much is the treatment fee? I will scan and pay you."

"Forget it, you’re likely to be a future employee; it’s on the house!"

Li Jingsheng waved his hand.

It’s not like he cared about a few dozen bucks.

"I saw the fee schedule in your reception area: massage therapy within ten minutes costs 50 yuan per session, and within half an hour, it’s 100 yuan per session. You just gave me a massage that should be within ten minutes; I’ll pay you 50 yuan. Even between brothers, accounts should be clear. If you don’t accept the money, it’ll be awkward for me to ask for treatment next time."

Wen Tianqi insisted on paying.

It was also a form of respect for Li Jingsheng.

Doctors earn money through their skills, and for Li Jingsheng’s level of massage therapy, charging 50 yuan within 10 minutes was not high.

For many serious hematomas, emphysemas, and joint pain, even the examination fees at the hospital would exceed this amount.

And the therapeutic effects would be significantly inferior.

Hematoma treatment is usually conservative.

At most, some painkillers are given, which address only the symptoms but not the root cause.

After Li Jingsheng’s massage therapy, he could help reduce swelling quickly with excellent therapeutic effect.

"Does your head still hurt now?"

"No more pain! I feel very comfortable and relaxed."

The patient said with a smile.

"Let me check your temporal veins again."

Li Jingsheng found that the veins on both sides of the patient’s head were no longer bulging and had subsided.
