"Not treating the disease first, but strengthening nutrition first—your treatment approach is quite unique!"
Lian Tao’s eyes brightened slightly, yet his expression was still full of concern.
The patient’s intestines have become so weak due to the disease.
Not thinking of solving the disease first, but strengthening nutrition inside and outside the intestines—isn’t this like fattening cattle and sheep to fight against tigers and wolves?
According to the cruel survival laws of nature, there is no other option but to die faster.
Can Li Jingsheng’s proposed plan really work?
That’s still a question.
Because Lian Tao, having practiced medicine for so many years, never thought of treating the disease this way.
The most mainstream diagnostic thinking is to find the cause of the disease and then eliminate it.
No matter how complex the cause, he’s encountered it before and has many ways to solve them.
For example, divide and conquer.
Or use more than two treatment methods simultaneously, taking a dual approach.
But he never thought of strengthening the nutrition of a patient in a state of illness to achieve the purpose of treating the disease.
This is actually just a habit of thinking.
In fields like oncology and leukemia, examples of strengthening nutrition before treatment are numerous.
It’s just that this patient’s situation is special, as it is a digestive disease, and few doctors would think of such a quirky treatment approach.
"To save such critically ill patients, perhaps one must take a radical approach."
Li Jingsheng’s words carried a trace of almost obsessive confidence.
More like a masterful figure in martial arts dramas, one who is both villainous and righteous.
Acting contrary to common sense.
Not just Lian Tao—even the disease might not expect the doctor to play his cards this way.
"Why not use aggressive medication for severe cases?"
Lian Tao retorted.
"Aggressive medication for severe cases also needs to take circumstances into account. The patient’s intestines and body are so weakened. No matter how strong the medication is, the body can’t absorb it, and it’s just like punching into thin air."
This kind of bickering between the two happens quite often.
That’s how friends are, most of the time.
Not daring to joke around doesn’t make them friends, but guests, elders, bosses, or strangers.
"Your treatment approach is ultimately a bit unconventional. I’ve never tried it for such patients. Lives are at stake, so I’ll call a nutritionist for advice."
After saying this, Lian Tao actually pulled out his phone and dialed a number.
"I’ve invited a friend for a consultation; he thinks we should first strengthen nutritional support inside and outside the intestines. Do you think it’s feasible? The patient’s current situation is dire, and I don’t have much time left. I’m mainly worried that spending time on strengthening nutrition would delay precious treatment opportunities. The patient is already developing multiple complications, and it feels like medication can’t suppress them."
