Chapter 350 Bone Therapy Upgrade, Black Jade Ointment
"Next one!"
This time it was another adult patient, and Li Quan felt depressed. The skill points earned from treating bone diseases for adults were halved.
Now he is in a hurry to upgrade the osteopathic treatment for children?
It would be nice if there were two children.
Fortunately, the young man just sprained his ankle.
It is not difficult to treat.
"How did you get injured?" Li Quan asked while checking the young man's injuries.
"Don't mention it. I'm so unlucky. I squeezed into the bus after get off work yesterday. When I got off the bus, my ankle twisted and I sprained my ankle. I followed the instructions on the Internet and used cold water to rinse my ankle for most of the night, but it didn't help. After one night, it was still swollen and painful, and I could only walk with crutches. If I ask for a few days off from the company, our company has been laying off employees recently, and I'm afraid I won't be able to keep my job."
"I accidentally saw the video of Dr. Li correcting and resetting a patient's bones, so I came here early in the morning to seek treatment."
The young man is two or three years older than Li Quan.
This is the age when work pressure is high.
Because when you are twenty-five or twenty-six years old, if you don’t go to graduate school, you will have worked for about four to five years.
At this time, I already had a certain amount of work experience and my salary had also increased.
The best way is to keep your head down, work hard, and strive for a higher position.
If you don't make good use of this time period and fail to be promoted to department manager before the age of 28, you will face greater pressure when you are 30.
Because according to normal promotion, you can be promoted to department supervisor before the age of 28, and if you work hard for 3 to 5 years and perform well, you can be promoted to department manager. After working for 3 to 5 years, you must be at least 31 years old.
Many of them are already thirty-two or thirty-three years old.
When a man reaches the age of thirty-two or thirty-three, this is another very important sprint period.
Because by the age of 33, if everything goes well, after working for about five years, you may be promoted to a mid- to senior-level position such as director.
If you can't get up, be careful.
Thirty-five is an important watershed in the workplace.
When many large enterprises and companies recruit, resumes from those over 35 years old will be filtered out directly.
In other words, if you are laid off at the age of 35 and have not been promoted to a director position or above, it will be difficult to find a job outside.
Because at this age, they are the pillars of the family.
Money is needed everywhere, including children's education, mortgage, favors, household expenses, parents' medical treatment, etc.
It is conceivable that men at this stage are under a lot of pressure.
And this pressure will not only not ease, but will continue to increase.
The older the child, the more expensive the tuition.
The older our parents get, the more illnesses they suffer.
There are also many favors and social engagements.
With mountains of expenses pressing down on you, you dare not fall down at all.
Li Quan saw in this young man a microcosm of the hard work and fierce competition in the workplace of countless young people of his age.
Even he himself, if he had not learned so many miraculous medical skills, would probably still be feeling lucky for being able to be a resident doctor with a monthly salary of more than 2,000 yuan.
If you don't get a place to stay in the hospital to work, just look at Han Dong and you'll know.
I've been running into obstacles everywhere when looking for a job.
If I really want to find a small clinic and work as a doctor to make a living, there's no point in that.
"After a preliminary examination, it seems to be a sprain, mainly soft tissue injury, and the ankle joint is displaced. You should go get an X-ray first. If it's not particularly serious, I can treat you on the spot, and you don't have to delay your work. After the treatment, you can go back to work."
Li Quan said to the young man.
"Okay, thank you Doctor Li!"
The young man was very happy after hearing this.
He leaned on a crutch, hopping and jumping, holding the examination form, and went to take an X-ray.
"Next one!"
Li Quan shouted.
An old woman in her fifties walked in holding a little boy about four years old.
The little boy's mouth was open with a painful expression.
The chin was injured and bleeding.
However, the wound has been simply bandaged.
This is where I saw the doctor.
"Doctor, please cure my grandson! His parents are not around, so I am taking care of him at home. He fell while playing outside and hit his chin. Now he can't speak and can't close his mouth. The wound has been treated at the community clinic. The doctor there said that the child's jaw is likely dislocated and asked me to take him to a large hospital for surgery."
"It just so happened that a neighbor of mine heard about this and told me that Dr. Li Quan of Huier Hospital is a very skilled doctor and is very good at bone setting and reduction. So I brought my grandson here."
The old woman sounded very sad and anxious as she told her story.
The jaw bone is a bit special. It is actually two hooks hooked together.
Not to mention hitting your chin when you fall, even laughing too exaggeratedly can cause your jaw to dislocate.
People often say that they laughed their jaws off.
It refers to a dislocated jaw.
And this is a real case.
"Don't worry. If it's just a dislocation, your grandson should be able to recover without surgery." Li Quan gently comforted the patient's family who was introduced by an acquaintance.
He was secretly happy.
So far, only a few patients have been cured through pediatric osteopathy, estimated to be around a dozen at most.
We now have two returning customers.
I believe that as its reputation spreads, there will be more patients coming to TCM orthopedics.
If you have the ability, you can succeed anywhere.
Deputy Director Ye from the Orthopedics Department laughed at him and said that he would have nothing to eat today.
Li Quan wanted to see who would be the one suffering from starvation in the future?
Not long after, the patients came back after their examinations.
"Doctor Li, it's quite lively here!"
A sour voice sounded.
Li Quan looked up and saw that Deputy Director Ye had arrived.
"good!"
Li Quan replied indifferently.
It is estimated that the director and deputy director of the orthopedic department have been paying close attention to the traditional Chinese medicine orthopedics department.
They heard that the Traditional Chinese Medicine Orthopedics Department was extremely popular early in the morning, so Deputy Director Ye came over to check it out after finishing his work.
It would have been fine if he hadn't looked at it, but once he did, he became extremely jealous.
The business of Traditional Chinese Medicine Orthopedics is several times better than that of the old orthopedics clinic.
The old orthopedic department has only seen two patients so far.
Among them was a patient with lumbar disc herniation. After being examined by Director Pang, he was so scared when he heard that he needed surgery that he left immediately.
In other words, apart from paying $21 for the registration fee for the specialist consultation, the patient did not incur any other expenses.
Judging from this situation, it is not the TCM department that will be in trouble, but the orthopedic department.
"Humph, it's different having a good teacher!"
Deputy Director Ye walked away with a gloomy face.
Li Quan didn't care and continued to treat the patient.
First, treat . This is a bit difficult, but it is not a problem for Li Quan.
He just grabbed the little boy's chin, moved it twice, and lifted it up.
The little boy screamed and then burst into tears.
This is good!
[You have successfully performed the Child's Bone Therapy Technique, skill points +10. ]
So cool.
It’s fun to treat children’s bone diseases, and it adds a lot of skill points.
"I can cry now, I can cry now, that's it!"
The child's grandmother was so happy that she was incoherent.
"You still have to take good care of the wound. Our doctor will apply medicine and bandage the child later. Be careful not to let the wound come into contact with water."
Li Quan explained some precautions.
The little boy had a one-centimeter-long cut on his chin.
Li Quan just reset his bones, causing the wound to split and bleed.
Dr. Luo, who was originally a surgeon, is definitely an expert in treating minor wounds like these.
Just leave the cleaning and prescribing work to Dr. Luo.
Li Quan checks his bone therapy technique.
【Children’s osteopathy, entry level 96%. 】
Great, only 4% away from upgrading.
Li Quan decided to seize the time while the old lady who broke her hip had not yet returned from the examination.
"Come, sir, I will heal your feet now!"
Li Quan treated the young man who sprained his ankle.
I had treated a similar case last time, so I was familiar with the treatment this time.
First the bone is reset, then massage is used to reduce swelling.
Twenty minutes later, the young man's injured right foot no longer needed crutches. He was able to stand directly and bear his weight.
"Okay, haha, I can really walk now, that's great! Thank you, Dr. Li!"
After the young man tried to walk a few steps, he was overjoyed.
All of this was recorded by Hu Yue'er.
When the time comes and it is posted online, it will surely attract more patients to seek treatment.
"Haha, you're welcome! When you go back, be careful not to let your right ankle joint do strenuous exercise. After about a month of maintenance, it will be back to normal." Li Quan said with a smile.
He is even happier than this guy.
Because his childhood osteopathy has finally been upgraded.
[Osteotherapy, small success rate 1%. ]
As Li Quan expected, after the upgrade, the word "infant" was removed.
At the same time, some more advanced bone therapy techniques emerged in his mind.
When you reach the entry level, you can only straighten bones and reposition them.
Now it has achieved a small success. It can not only treat ligament, cartilage and periosteum injuries, but also has a new formula called Black Jade Intermittent Ointment.
This formula can treat mild fractures and cracks.
According to the above statement, the growth rate of broken bones can be accelerated, allowing broken bones to heal and recover quickly.
Li Quan remembered seeing a record about Black Jade Ointment in a martial arts novel.
It also has the function of reconnecting broken bones.
When it comes to the word "gao", many people think it means plaster, but this is actually a very narrow understanding.
Traditional Chinese medicine is divided into five categories: pills, powders, pastes, pills and soups.
Each category of Chinese medicine has its own advantages and different uses.
Ointment is usually applied to the surface of the skin of the affected area.
It can protect, seal and treat. Because the ointment layer is thicker, the effect is long-lasting and the curative effect is significant.
It is particularly suitable for treatments such as broken bones.
As long as the ointment is applied to the surface of the skin, it can continuously penetrate into the body, promoting rapid growth of broken bones and accelerating healing.
This is incomparable to traditional Chinese medicines such as soups, pills and powders.
The function of ointment is to last for a long time.
"Black Jade Paste, this is a good thing. I made the medicine based on this formula, it is unique, it is probably not much worse than diet pills." Li Quan's eyes lit up, as if he saw a shining mountain of gold.
Money is a good thing.
Allows you to do whatever .
In addition to the recipe of this black jade ointment, medication is also needed to treat ligaments, cartilage, etc.
More for internal use.
Compared to the powerful effect of Black Jade Ointment which can reconnect broken bones, these medicines are much weaker.
Moreover, there are many Chinese and Western medicines on the market for treating cartilage and ligaments.
"That's great. In the future, our TCM orthopedics department will not only be able to straighten and reposition bones, but also treat cartilage and ligament injuries."
Li Quan was overjoyed.
He felt more confident in his competition with the orthopedic department.
If he is given more time, as he treats more and more orthopedic patients, his osteopathic skills will definitely be upgraded.
By then, his orthopedic skills will be even more powerful.
When it was the old orthopedic surgeon's turn, he wasn't even qualified to drink the soup.
Not long after, the old lady came back pushed by her son-in-law.
My mother-in-law fell and her son-in-law took her to the hospital for treatment alone. This son-in-law is definitely a qualified and good son-in-law.
"Doctor Li, please help my mother-in-law take a look! Here are the test results."
The man showed the test results to Li Quan.
"The right femoral head is cracked in multiple places. The diameter of the most serious crack is more than 0.2 centimeters. This is a very serious condition. In addition, judging from the condition of the cracks, it should have been more than two to three days."
After reading it, Li Quan secretly felt lucky.
The femur is the most important bone in the human body, and the femoral head is even more important. A person's upright walking, activities, and labor all rely on the supporting function of the femoral head.
Therefore, the femoral head is also the most vulnerable part.
"Doctor, can it be cured?" the man asked anxiously.
"It can definitely be cured. Have you been to other hospitals?"
Li Quan felt that the old lady had fallen so badly that this was probably not her first visit to the doctor.
The man's eyes were somewhat evasive.
"It doesn't matter if you tell the truth. It is the patient's right and freedom to choose where to see a doctor. All of us doctors have only one wish, which is to hope that the patient's illness can be cured and restored to health. We will never treat patients differently just because they have been to other hospitals."
Li Quan expressed his attitude.
Only then did the man dare to tell the truth.
"Doctor Li, to be honest, I have taken my mother-in-law to Yuanyang Hospital, Provincial People's Hospital, and Jiang's Orthopedic Hospital. They all said that this is very difficult to treat, and even if surgery is performed, it can only be a general repair. In addition, my mother-in-law is older, and the risk of surgery is also very high, and the healing period will be particularly long."
"I also heard that your medical skills are very impressive, so I came here to try my luck."
The man honestly explained the basic situation.
Jiang's Orthopedic Hospital is an authority in the field of orthopedics.
Even it is said to be difficult to treat, which shows that this old lady's condition is indeed very troublesome.
"Well, if you are willing to trust me, I can use traditional Chinese medicine to treat the patient. No surgery is required, but the patient needs to be hospitalized for a period of time. The specific treatment duration depends on the patient's bone recovery."
Li Quan gave his own treatment plan.
"Do you need medicine?" the man asked.
"Of course, medication is needed. This is mainly based on external ointment, supplemented by internal medication, and also combined with acupuncture, massage , physical therapy, magnetic therapy and other therapies. It can be regarded as a pure Chinese medicine treatment. I am personally optimistic about the treatment results. After treatment, the patient can regain his original mobility."
Li Quan: This is a conservative statement.
In fact, he should be at least 90% sure.
"So...what's the total cost of treatment?"
"It's about a quarter of the cost of surgical treatment, or maybe even lower. If you have medical insurance, you shouldn't have to pay much." Li Quan hasn't set a price for the Black Jade Ointment yet.
The raw materials of Black Jade Intermittent Ointment are relatively expensive, so the cost of treatment will definitely not be too low.
However, the cost of surgical treatment is definitely much higher.
It may even be necessary to replace the entire hip joint.
That cost is quite horrific.
Besides, how can a replaced hip joint be better than your own?
No matter from which perspective, choosing Li Quan's traditional Chinese medicine treatment is the best choice.
"Well... okay then. Please take care of it, Doctor Li!" The man agreed to receive traditional Chinese medicine treatment.
"Doctor Luo, please complete the hospitalization procedures for the patient. Check the patient for hypertension and other diseases." Li Quan admitted the first inpatient in the Department of Traditional Chinese Medicine.
What he was thinking about now was how to prepare the Black Jade Ointment.
This matter must be planned carefully.
If a man does not work for himself, he will be punished by heaven and earth.
This formula will never be donated to the hospital for nothing. Li Quan plans to keep it in his own hands.
Yanhuang Pharmaceutical Company, which cooperates with He Youlong, may consider producing this ointment.
After arranging the hospitalization of the old lady, the orthopedic department finally managed to deal with all the patients. Li Quan walked towards the hematology department.
There are two patients here waiting for his treatment.
Ye Ru has arranged for the two patients to undergo relevant examinations.
Because routine examinations for blood diseases usually take a long time, Li Quan came not too late.
There is only one patient who just came back from the examination.
