Chapter 452: Nerves, scared to death
"I need to see the patient first before I can decide on a plan."
Li Quan also puts the overall situation first when discussing patients' treatment issues.
His expression was serious and he was waiting solemnly.
"Then let's go to the ward first!"
Director He gestured for them to come in, and the group headed towards the ward.
When he arrived at the ward, Li Quan looked at the child again.
Because my neck is crooked and tilted to the left, I can only lie flat on my back when I sleep.
The child's mother was by the bed.
She obviously still remembered Li Quan, and her expression was a little complicated when she saw Li Quan coming .
Perhaps she didn't expect that after so many twists and turns, she would eventually come back to ask Li Quan to treat her son.
"We were too rash last time. Doctor Li is very skilled. Let him check on our son right away." Mr. Feng was worried that his wife was ignorant and would say something to offend Li Quan.
As a husband, he took a lot of effort, bowing and scraping, apologizing and speaking nice words to Li Quan, and only then did he invite the person over.
My son’s illness is entirely treated by Li Quan.
Li Quan walked to the bed, sat down, and looked at the little boy who was sleeping soundly.
First, I checked the boy's surgical wound and found that it was recovering well and there was no infection.
In general, the little boy looked a little thin, probably because of the crooked neck disease, which caused him to have abnormal eating habits. As a result, his body became much thinner than other boys of the same age.
Li Quan gently placed his hand on the little boy's wrist.
Carefully feel the little boy's pulse.
When taking a patient's pulse, if the patient is lying on his side or his arm is twisted, the pulse may be distorted.
Now the little boy is lying flat, which is best for taking his pulse.
Director He, Mr. Feng, Doctor Wen and others stood by and watched Li Quan diagnose the patient. They all showed amazement in their eyes.
Although taking the pulse may seem like a simple process, the level of the technique can be seen in the selection of fingers, placement of fingers, and movement of fingers.
When Li Quan was taking a patient's pulse, he was calm, measured and unhurried, and it was obvious at first glance that he had the demeanor of a great man.
"The pulse has three parts, yin and yang multiply, nourishing blood and qi, in the human body, up and down in the middle, because of the breath, the body fluids circulate..."
The formula for pulse diagnosis kept appearing in Li Quan's mind at this moment.
He carefully felt the patient's pulse, and at the same time compared it with the pulse diagnosis method and analyzed it.
After five or six minutes, Li Quan finally withdrew his hand.
"The patient's pulse is tight and his stomach pulse is weak and cold. You should give him more warm and nourishing food in the future. For example, mutton, chicken, etc. You can slowly adjust the child's body through diet therapy. In addition, the problem of cervical motor function nerve loss that you are worried about does not exist.
But it is true that I am mentally challenged.
There is a node that is naturally blocked and closed. This requires acupuncture and Chinese medicine to be performed simultaneously, which should be effective.
What I mean is that we can first give the child this treatment to clear the functional nerves. After his nerves return to normal, we can then do muscle adjustment and cervical vertebra correction surgery.”
Li Quan gave an optimal treatment plan.
If the functional nerves cannot be unblocked, there is no need to perform the next two operations.
"That's a good suggestion. I agree."
Mr. Feng nodded repeatedly in agreement.
"Doctor Li, are your acupuncture and internal Chinese medicine high-risk?" Director He is the highest person in charge here, and he is very strict in controlling safety issues.
“Zero risk. Even if the cure fails, it will not cause any real harm to the patient.”
Li Quan's traditional Chinese medicine has this benefit.
Safety.
This is something that Western medicine cannot match.
"Okay then. I'll arrange the medications you need for you right away. Does the treatment need to be done in an operating room?"
Director He didn't doubt at all whether Li Quan's traditional Chinese medicine treatment was effective.
This made Li Quan even more wary of Director He.
Because it is very likely that Director He has already learned about Li Quan's personal situation in detail.
"Oral medications are prescription drugs, so I'm afraid they need to be prescribed by our Chinese medicine department. As for the tools and drugs for acupuncture, they can be prepared by functional neurosurgery. I will write you the necessary tools and drugs immediately. The treatment does not require an operating room, just a quiet room where no one will disturb you."
While Li Quan was speaking, he had already started to quickly write a list of materials.
Including acupuncture medicines and silver needles.
When prescribing Chinese medicine, it can only be done in the name of Professor Liu.
…
In a treatment room, Li Quan is concentrating on treating a patient.
His expression was serious as he gave the sick child a needle.
The eighteen-centimeter-long silver needle pierced into the sick child's neck, frightening Mr. Feng, who was standing nearby watching, so much that he held his breath.
A needle this long is enough to pierce the neck.
You should know that the human neck is rich in blood vessels, densely covered with nerves and densely packed with lymph.
It is no exaggeration to describe the neck as the second forbidden zone of life.
When fighting, if you chop the enemy's neck with a palm knife, the enemy will easily fall unconscious on the spot.
It was also the first time for Li Quan to perform the art of opening the meridians, and he was equally nervous.
However, he was much calmer than the family members, Director He and others.
Because any of the miraculous medical skills he learned had never let him down.
There is a saying in traditional Chinese medicine that goes, "The pulse is easy to flow, but the meridians are difficult to clear."
What flows through the veins is qi and blood, while what is transmitted through the meridians is various nerve signals of the human body.
For example, pain nerves, motor nerves, excitatory nerves, etc.
Li Quan still clearly remembers what his teacher taught him when he was studying human anatomy.
"Veneres are blue-purple in color, arteries are light pink, and nerves are yellow-white. These are the areas that need to be avoided when cutting. Especially nerves, they must not be cut."
Blood vessels are elastic tubes, especially arteries.
But the texture and color of the cranial nerves are a bit like salted tofu, and the peripheral nerves are a bit like white fibers, bright, and as thin as blood vessels.
Many people think that nerves are blood vessels, which is a completely wrong understanding.
There is an essential difference between the two.
Nerves are composed of nerve fibers gathered into bundles, and the structure of the nerve fibers themselves is covered by the myelin sheath formed by glial cells outside the neuron axon. Many nerve fibers are gathered into bundles and surrounded by a membrane composed of connective tissue to form nerves.
If you cut open a person's neck and observe carefully, you will find that most of the nerves are in the form of yellow and white fibrous bands.
Once you understand the characteristics of nerves, it is not difficult to understand why nerves are so difficult to treat.
If you ask a surgeon with rich surgical experience to connect one or two blood vessels, even high-risk arteries, he can handle it calmly. But if you ask him to connect some more troublesome nerves, his head will shake like a rattle in an instant.
It's not because his skills are poor, but because he has acquired a certain level of surgical skills and knows how difficult it is to connect nerve bundles.
If you accidentally cut a blood vessel during a surgical operation, your senior physician would at most criticize you a few words.
If the nerves are severed, the senior doctor will probably look like he wants to eat you.
Li Quan's method of regulating menstruation mainly relies on internal administration of Chinese medicine and acupuncture.
It is still at the entry-level, which is a relatively superficial level. I have not yet mastered the advanced surgical techniques to clear the nerves.
However, one of Bian Que's miraculous medical skills was the ability to replace hearts. Li Quan boldly speculated that when the art of opening the meridians reached a higher level, it was very likely that the medical skills would be able to connect nerves surgically.
Fortunately, the patient's nerves are only blocked and not seriously damaged.
There is nothing missing.
Originally, through CT scan, most of the nerves distributed in the neck can be clearly detected.
However, because the patient's condition was very special, it was difficult for Director Rang He and even the chief physicians of the Provincial People's Hospital's Department of Neurology to determine whether there was motor nerve loss.
They can't find it out, but Li Quan can.
However, Li Quan's examination method is to take the pulse and then carefully distinguish whether there are any nerve missing or interrupted, etc.
It is precisely because he is diagnosing the pulse that he can find out whether the nerves are interrupted or missing.
For example, when checking whether the patient's cervical motor nerves were missing, he found through pulse diagnosis that the nerves in the lower neck were present, as were the motor nerves in the upper neck.
There is only blockage at one node in the neck.
Then he could boldly diagnose that the patient's cervical motor nerves were not lost.
At this moment, Li Quan had just inserted the fifth silver needle when the patient suddenly began to experience severe convulsions, convulsions in the limbs and other symptoms.
“Stop it, stop it!”
Director He's heart almost jumped out of his throat.
If someone dies from this treatment, he will be held primarily responsible.
Mr. Feng also rushed over nervously.
Reach out and pull out the needle.
"If you don't want anything to happen to your son, just stay here quietly. Or get out." Li Quan stretched out his hand and pushed Mr. Feng, who was rushing towards him, aside.
Family members should not be allowed to observe during treatment.
However, Director He probably wanted to please Mr. Feng, so he put Mr. Feng into the treatment room.
Li Quan shouted angrily, intimidating everyone, and then took out a silver needle from the needle holder.
This time it's longer.
It is a seven-inch silver needle, more than twenty-one centimeters long.
Mr. Feng, Director He and others were almost scared to death.
The person is already in this condition, and Li Quan still wants to give the child an injection?
"Li Quan, do you know what you are doing? If anything goes wrong, you will be fully responsible. You lunatic, stop it now!"
Director He roared hysterically.
What he was worried about was just that his future would be affected.
"Once the arrow is shot, there is no turning back. If you withdraw the needle now, you will really harm the child. If you dare to say another word, I will stop caring and you will treat it yourself."
Li Quan was very angry because he was disturbed again and again.
After being yelled at like that, Director immediately became obedient.
Director He wanted to be tough in his heart, but he didn't have the skills, so he didn't dare to.
Li Quan was really pissed off, and he believed that Li Quan could definitely do it, so he just quit.
Anyway, he is the one who is really in charge here, not Li Quan.
Li Quan began to disinfect the silver needle slowly, and then inserted it into the child's head, from the Baihui point at the top.
It went straight in, leaving only a small section of the needle handle outside.
Li Quan kept twisting the silver needle.
At this moment, the sick child convulsed even more violently, and blood even began to flow from his nose. His eyes were also wide open.
Director He collapsed to the ground, rubbing his forehead with his hand.
"It's over, it's over..."
He went to great lengths to invite Li Quan to come for a consultation, hoping to get some credit. But who knew that Li Quan's acupuncture was so powerful that it could kill people.
It is certain that Li Quan will be in trouble.
But he, the department director, is even more unlucky.
Because Li Quan was only a resident physician, he was nominally the supervising physician on site. When his superiors held him accountable, he would be the first person to be held accountable.
Mr. Feng wanted to pounce on her, but he didn't dare.
Because Li Quan had warned him and wanted to get his son into trouble, he continued to interfere with Li Quan's treatment.
Now, he could only watch all this with pain, powerless to do anything.
Doctor Wen should be the calmest person among all.
She is an extremely smart and beautiful woman.
After several encounters with Li Quan, she understood that Li Quan was by no means an impulsive and reckless person. Li Quan must have strong self-confidence to dare to treat like this.
Therefore, she was not worried at all that Li Quan would cure someone to death.
As for the patient's convulsions and nose bleeding, it looked scary, but no one knew what the final outcome would be.
"This idiot is about to get into trouble." Zhang Ba stood at the end of the bed, watching all this happen with a cold eye. He had a happy smile on his face, gloating over other people's misfortunes.
As long as Li Quan kills the person with his medicine, the unlucky ones will be Li Quan and Director He.
Zhang Ba was demoted to the bottom of the society, and deep down he probably dreamed that something big would happen to Director He, who had taken his position as director.
Only by getting rid of Director He will he have a chance to return to the director's position.
When Li Quan saw the child bleeding from the nose, he was not surprised but happy.
He took out two six-inch long needles and inserted them into the sick child's temples at the same time.
The patient's condition was even worse this time. Not only did his nose bleed, but even his ears started bleeding.
"Hey, come here and help me carry the medicine." Li Quan pointed at Director Zhang.
"I?"
Zhang Ba was frightened out of his wits.
The sick child was about to die. At this time, Li Quan asked him to come forward to help with the treatment. This was asking for someone to die with him.
"It's you. Come here quickly with the medicine and fumigate the patient's acupuncture points!" Li Quan ordered his grandson around like he was ordering him around.
"Go quickly!" Director He shouted.
This time, Zhang Ba didn't dare to complain anymore. He could only walk over fearfully and with great humiliation. Under Li Quan's command, he took the acupuncture medicine box, lit it and began to fumigate the patient's acupuncture points.
"Can you do the job? Hold it properly and keep a closer distance." Li Quan scolded him like he was his grandson.
Zhang Ba's teeth were chattering from gnashing.
But the situation is weaker than us, so there is nothing we can do but accept it.
Li Quan gently twisted the silver needle and kept ordering Zhang Ba around.
Even though Zhang Ba's face was livid, his teeth were biting and his cheeks were puffed up, Li Quan was not afraid of him and pretended not to see it, just deliberately making fun of this grandson.
Do you still dare to hide behind and watch the fun with gloating?
Kill this bastard.
"Doctor Zhang, it's okay. If something really happens to the patient, it will be your credit." Li Quan said lightly.
"mean!"
Zhang Ba was so angry that he cursed.
"Hold it steady. If anything goes wrong, it will be your responsibility. You can't even help out. With such poor ability, it's no wonder you can't keep your position as director." Li Quan almost angered the attending physician Zhang Ba to death.
Fortunately, after about forty minutes, the patient's treatment was basically completed.
"Okay, you can stand aside and take a rest. You can't even make a medicinal smoke, you're such a rookie." Li Quan asked him to do something and still found fault with him.
Zhang Ba was filled with rage again.
My steel teeth were almost broken.
Li Quan began to remove the needle at this time.
First, the doctor took the patient's pulse, and after confirming that the pulse was normal, he began to remove the needles one by one.
There are rules for removing the needle, and you can't just pull it out randomly. Otherwise, the consequences will be serious.
