Practicing Medical Skills in a Small Clinic novel Chapter 775

Chapter 775: Chapter 360: Buying a Car, Putting in a Word (Part 3)

Li Jingsheng sped up his breakfast.

Siying lives close to the clinic now, so she arrives early for work every day.

She’s a diligent young lady.

Perhaps because Li Jingsheng treats her well, they have a mentor-apprentice relationship, and she never fusses over little things at work.

After finishing breakfast, Li Jingsheng hurried to the consultation hall.

Some patients and family members waiting in line recognized him and greeted him.

Li Jingsheng responded to each of them, his attitude warm and friendly.

The young boy’s parents were telling Siying about the treatment at the big hospital yesterday.

"Dr. Li, we took our child to the big hospital yesterday; just the examination took up half the day. They diagnosed him with acute gastroenteritis, but after the injection, my son still had a fever. His stomach pain seemed a bit better, but he was still complaining of stomach pain while sleeping last night. I thought about it and still felt more at ease having you treat him."

Listening to the child’s father, Li Jingsheng felt a bit embarrassed.

Yesterday, he had asked them to do a check-up at the clinic, but they went straight to the hospital.

Today, they were back.

Going back and forth.

The key is that you can’t criticize such family members, otherwise they might directly confront the doctor.

"Which hospital did you visit?"

"Second Hospital."

"Which department?"

"Gastroenterology."

That should be Xiao Linlin’s department. Not sure which doctor attended the case?

"The child is experiencing abdominal pain, vomiting, fever, high blood pressure, and a mild anomaly in the stool routine test." Li Jingsheng looked at the medical records Siying had inquired about and confirmed with the family.

"Yes! These are exactly the symptoms. Yesterday, you mentioned that the child had high blood pressure; we checked at the hospital as well, and they noted that the low pressure was a bit high and suggested we get an appointment in Cardiovascular Medicine to check it out."

Gastroenterology only manages diseases related to the digestive system.

They indeed can’t treat high blood pressure.

The child’s parents might not understand this, possibly resulting in dissatisfaction. Not every doctor can be like Li Jingsheng, who can diagnose any ailment.

Many doctors, when encountering diseases outside their expertise, can only suggest that patients get an appointment in the corresponding department. 𝕗𝐫𝐞𝕖𝕨𝐞𝗯𝚗𝕠𝘃𝐞𝚕.𝐜𝗼𝚖

Some patients may need to get five or six appointments in one day.

They might then think the doctors are just passing the buck.

Li Jingsheng reviewed the child’s examination results from the Second Hospital.

Hemoglobin was 1112 g/l, red blood cells 5 to the power of nine per liter, white blood cells 15 to the power of nine per liter...

The abdominal X-ray showed no signs of fluid accumulation or liquid level.

"It shouldn’t be acute gastroenteritis."

After reviewing the examination results, Li Jingsheng checked the child’s abdomen again; the pressure pain response was similar to yesterday.

However, the left lower abdominal pressure pain of the child was not very pronounced, and the periumbilical abdominal pain seemed to have eased somewhat.

Conversely, the right lower abdominal pain still existed, but it wasn’t very obvious.

Yesterday, pressing the child’s right lower abdomen would cause the child to frown, scrunching his nose, gritting his teeth, his body slightly curling. Today, pressing it caused almost no reaction.
