Chapter 161 The Disease of Desire
Li Quan did not explain, but just concentrated and felt the pulse of the middle-aged man.
Initial examination of the pulse revealed that it was floating and tight, which was indeed a symptom of wind-cold.
At this time, strange things happened again.
The skill points for pulse diagnosis also did not increase.
Li Quan's heart sank. He guessed that there was nothing wrong with his pulse diagnosis and visual diagnosis skills, but that this middle-aged man had some hidden disease that he could not diagnose.
"Young man, you've been checking for several minutes. Have you found anything? In the past, when my husband caught a cold, he would go to the hospital and do a routine blood test to find out what was wrong."
The lady saw that Li Quan was taking her husband's pulse and there was no response for a long time, so she became impatient.
This young doctor looks very uneasy.
Can you see a doctor?
Long illness makes a good doctor. This is not the first time she has accompanied her husband to the hospital to treat a cold.
She knows all the things doctors do to diagnose colds.
After Li Quan saw her husband, he neither wrote out an application form for an examination nor took his temperature or heartbeat. Instead, he followed the Chinese medicine method and took his pulse.
No matter how you look at it, it seems out of place with Huier Hospital, a provincial tertiary hospital.
"Give me a little more time, be patient!" Li Quan began to use the newly learned method of floating, middle and sinking to diagnose diseases.
This is the three-part and nine-symptom method of diagnosis that can only be performed after one has mastered the art of pulse diagnosis.
The three parts are Cun, Guan and Chi.
Then each part can be divided into three pulse diagnosis techniques: floating, middle and sinking.
So together they are called the Three Parts and Nine Hours.
In just a few minutes when Li Quan was examining the middle-aged man, the man yawned several times and looked like he had trouble sleeping.
“Found it!”
Li Quan initially felt the patient's pulse become stringy, slippery and strong, and then changed again, turning into slippery, rapid, knotty, long, slow and unstable. This happened in an instant.
When he was about to explore again, the subtle pulse he had just sensed disappeared again.
Li Quan's expression became more serious.
A stringy and slippery pulse indicates that the patient has phlegm and fluid, liver-stomach disharmony, and food stagnation. This is a sign of a stroke.
As for the patient's strong pulse, it means that the blood circulation is rapid and fierce, and he may have high blood pressure.
The changes in the pulse that occurred later were even more ominous.
The pulse changes from stringy, slippery and surging to slippery, rapid, knotted, intermittent, long, slow and unstable. This is a sign of great misfortune and death.
After Li Quan got this clue, he used the forward-looking diagnosis technique to assist in the diagnosis.
Eventually he came to a surprising conclusion.
The patient showed signs of cerebral hemorrhage, stroke, and even death.
[You successfully performed the pulse diagnosis technique and diagnosed the disease of desire, skill points +100. ]
[You successfully performed the visual diagnosis technique and diagnosed the disease of desire, skill points +100. ]
When Li Quan deduced that the patient had signs of stroke and brain stem hemorrhage, the long-awaited skill points were finally added.
And it gave him a big surprise.
Two divine medical skills, each of which adds 100 skill points, which is ten times the normal diagnosis.
"If I put this in a martial arts novel, it would be considered an epiphany, right?"
Li Quan was extremely surprised.
The inferior doctor treats the disease that has already occurred, the middle doctor treats the disease that is about to occur. The best doctor is even better, and can treat the disease that has not yet occurred.
Now, Li Quan's two diagnostic skills have been upgraded to the minor success level, and have actually touched the threshold of traditional Chinese medicine.
The disease of desire can be diagnosed.
When floods are high, those who have guarded the dams know that if the leaks in the dams can be found in advance, it is easy to prevent them before they happen. This is can detect diseases before they occur.
The next point is traditional Chinese medicine.
When a small breach occurs in a dam, it can be discovered quickly and blocked to prevent a major dam breach.
Li Quan has discovered in advance that this middle-aged man is at risk of cerebral hemorrhage, which is like saving a life, which is better than building a seven-story pagoda.
After finding out the patient's hidden illness, a smile appeared on Li Quan's face.
"Sir, your cold is actually just a minor illness. Even if you don't treat it, it will heal on its own . Now you have a serious illness in your body. You may have a cerebral hemorrhage at any time, and it is a brain stem hemorrhage. I suggest you get some necessary tests immediately and be hospitalized for treatment."
It was the first time that Li Quan dealt with a patient face to face.
I thought about how to word it for a long time, and finally decided it would be better to be honest.
He was waiting eagerly for the patient to agree to his treatment plan.
Because this couple demonstrated extremely high personal cultivation.
They are much better than those rude patients who start swearing and banging the table as soon as they come in.
"Little doctor, my husband came to you to treat a cold. But you didn't take his temperature, blood pressure, or do any routine tests. You just felt his pulse, and then you made up a story, saying that my husband was at risk of cerebral hemorrhage. Do you think your words and actions are in line with the standards of a doctor?"
The lady looked very angry.
You can tell there's a lot of anger in her voice.
"I'm not being mysterious. I'm really doing this for your husband's good." Li Quan's kind reminder was unexpectedly misunderstood as a black doctor who was out to get people to give him money.
He was speechless.
It may also be related to the fact that he has almost no experience in seeing patients and has no skills in communicating with patients and their families.
Honest advice is unpleasant to the ears, and good medicine tastes bitter.
His blunt advice was hard for his patients to accept.
"Young man, I am very grateful for your diagnosis. I also want to say something for your own good. As a doctor, medical skills are important, but medical ethics are equally important. In order to earn more examination and treatment fees, you played tricks for a while and said that I might have cerebral hemorrhage. Do you think it is right? Huier Hospital is one of the top 3A hospitals in the province. What you did is very disappointing."
"That's all I have to say. If you don't listen to my advice, sooner or later someone will expose your shady medical practices."
The middle-aged man stood up and said to his wife.
"Wife, let's go! Let's go to Yuanyang Hospital, it must be much more formal than Huier Hospital!"
The two men did not listen to Li Quan's advice at all. Instead, they scolded Li Quan as a black-hearted doctor and left angrily.
Looking at the two people's backs as they left, Li Quan sighed.
It’s hard to be a good person in this world!
I hope the couple doesn’t complain to the medical department, otherwise they will be in trouble again.
After all, this time, Li Quan's medical practice was indeed irregular.
Li Quan secretly summed up his experiences and lessons.
Next time you encounter this situation, you must pay attention to the way of communication. You can first give the patient two examination application forms, and then inform the patient after getting the examination results.
Let’s put it this way, Mr. XX, there is something you need to be prepared for.
From your examination results, I unexpectedly discovered that you have a potential disease. For your safety, I suggest that you undergo further examinations to find out the cause and receive timely treatment...
Doctor Luo had finished using the toilet by this time and came back in a hurry.
Seeing his anxious look, Li Quan secretly wondered, maybe he forgot to bring toilet paper?
