Li Zhang stepped into Li Shunrong's bedroom and saw Li Shunrong lying on the bed with a pale face. He saw that his eyes were closed and his pale face was full of pain. There were two imperial doctors next to him who were treating her, but both of them were frowning, and they were also discussing something in a low voice?

"Two imperial doctors, I wonder what disease Li Shunrong has?" Li Zhang stepped forward and whispered to the two imperial doctors. Li Shunrong didn't know whether he was unconscious or asleep at this time, and did not notice Li Zhang's arrival.

"You are..." The two imperial doctors were stunned when they saw Li Zhang, a strange young man, appearing here. They were stationed in the imperial tombs all year round, so they didn't know Li Zhang.

"Li Zhang, the commander of the cavalry of the lower cavalry, this time he came to visit Li Shunrong on the order of His Majesty, and also treated her." Li Zhang immediately introduced politely.

Hearing Li Zhang's identity, the two imperial doctors did not dare to neglect, and immediately saluted Li Zhang. Then the older imperial doctor said, "Li Shunrong was caused by injuries. A few days ago, she accidentally stabbed her arm by an iron tool, which resulted in external evil entering the body, which is tetanus. Now the whole body is full of poisoning symptoms. Although I have prepared decoction for poisoning, the effect is not very good."

"Teta!" Li Zhang was also very angry when he heard the name of the disease. Tetanus is very difficult and has an incubation period. It comes fiercely during the attack and has a very high mortality rate. Even if the symptoms are mild at the onset, there is a mortality rate of 20% or 30%. If the symptoms are serious, the mortality rate may reach 70% or 80%.

"Where is the wound?" Li Zhang asked anxiously. Although tetanus is difficult to treat, there is half the good news for Li Zhang, that is, he is quite familiar with this disease and is very clear about the treatment method. The only regret that he regrets is that all the medicines he can use have expired. If he takes the risk, he is not sure what the consequences will be?

"On the calf!" The imperial doctor said, and asked the palace maid to help him lift Li Shunrong's quilt, revealing a swollen right leg. When the palace maid rolled her trouser leg, Li Zhang immediately saw the injured position on her calf, not far from her ankle, about four or five inches above her ankle.

But what made Li Zhang speechless was that the wound was bandaged tightly by the imperial doctor, and there was a herbal smell inside. This was tetanus, which was originally a disease caused by anaerobic bacteria, which produced a disease caused by toxins. As a result, the imperial doctor bandaged the wound so tightly, wouldn’t it create better reproduction conditions for bacteria?

Thinking of this, Li Zhang immediately untied the bandaged wound. The two imperial doctors wanted to stop him, but Li Zhang ignored him at all. Then he asked someone to take a silver knife, then disinfected it at high temperature and gently cut the wound, and the pus and blood inside suddenly came out. However, these alone were not enough. Li Zhang's expression remained unchanged and cut off all the tissues around the wound, and also cleaned the wound.

The imperial doctor and the palace maid were both shocked by Li Zhang's actions. Li Shunrong, who was sleeping, also moaned painfully from time to time. However, when Li Zhang finished cleaning up, she did not wake up. It was obvious that her illness had reached an extremely serious point.

However, Li Zhang didn't care about these things. After cleaning the wound, he did not bandage or suture it again. However, cleaning the wound is only the first step. Drug treatment is required next. The most effective thing for tetanus is to use antibiotics, such as penicillin and metronidazole. Coincidentally, Li Zhang has both antibiotics, but unfortunately, they have expired.

"Prince, you..."

At this time, the old imperial physician finally reacted and said to Li Zhang with his whole body trembling, but before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by Li Zhang and said, "Don't worry, I'm treating Li Shunrong. I'll take care of anything. Don't touch Li Shunrong now, I'll go back!"

Li Zhang immediately stepped out of the palace and then went outside to find the wild dog that came with him. Since he came forward and had danger, he was accompanied by the wild dog when he went out. He saw him whispering a few words in the wild dog's ear. The wild dog immediately understood, and then jumped on his horse and ran away.

Li Zhang returned to Li Shunrong again. At this time, Li Shunrong still did not wake up, but she had a whole body spasm and sweated continuously. This was also a typical symptom of tetanus.

In addition, Li Shunrong's condition is not mild. After asking the palace maid, he learned that Li Shunrong's whole body spasms several times a day, which is usually less than three times. However, the number of attacks she has had far exceeded three times. If it is more serious, it may occur once in a few minutes, or even continuous spasms. If it reaches that point, Li Zhang may be helpless. After all, the mortality rate of severe tetanus is 70% to 80% in later generations, and the current medical conditions will only be higher.

After coming to Li Shunrong again, Li Zhang asked someone to pull all the curtains around him, and strictly prohibited from finding any sound in the room, and also prohibited from touching Li Shunrong's body. This is mainly because patients with tetanus are very sensitive to external stimuli such as sound and light, and may even cause re-spasm, so these measures are very necessary.

Next, Li Zhang sat quietly on the side and waited without leaving for a moment because he was worried that Li Shunrong would cause other complications. According to him, a large part of the cause of death of tetanus patients was caused by suffocation. If this happens, he could only cut Li Shunrong's trachea. Although it is very risky to do this under the current medical conditions, he didn't care about these things.

Faced with Li Zhang's order, the two imperial physicians did not dare to refute, and the palace maids and the eunuchs did not dare to say anything. Of course, someone secretly reported to Zhao Zhen, but Zhao Zhen believed that Li Zhang would definitely not do anything randomly, so they all suppressed them.

In this way, Li Zhang stayed in Li Shunrong's room for most of the day, until the early morning of the next day, a tired wild dog finally brought what he wanted. In fact, it was the medical box that Li Zhang often used, and there were also the medicines he stored in the cellar at home. Although these medicines were expired, they were always stored by Li Zhang in a low-temperature environment. If it was absolutely necessary, they might be useful.

Li Zhang originally worked in the medical device industry in his previous life, and was also considered a peer with the pharmaceutical industry, so he is quite familiar with the pharmaceutical industry. Although the shelf life of general drugs is mostly two years, it does not mean that expired drugs cannot be used at all. In fact, even if the drug has expired, most of the active ingredients can still be preserved.

Of course, if it is not for special circumstances, expired drugs are not recommended. If you use them accidentally, it is best to go to the hospital for a check-up. Li Zhang is forced to do so now. Li Shunrong's tetanus has become more and more serious, the number of spasms is increasing, and the interval between attacks is shortening. If you don't use medicine, you may really be helpless.

In addition, Li Zhang was also blaming himself. He had just asked the palace maid and learned that since he and Zhao Zhen came to Li Shunrong last time, Li Shunrong has become more and more cheerful, and even planted flowers and grass himself, and also planted vegetables. However, it is precisely because of this that when she was turning the ground a few days ago, she accidentally stabbed her calf with tools, which caused tetanus. It can be said that Li Shunrong was sick this time, and Li Zhang also had to bear certain responsibility.

"Is the fate of historical figures really so difficult to change?" Li Zhang was thinking about this question when he got the medicine. It has been almost ten years since he traveled to the Song Dynasty. Sometimes he also tried to change the fate of some people, such as Li Yuanhao. However, although Li Yuanhao is disabled now, Dangxiang is still slowly unifying with his efforts. If he does not stop it, Xixia may appear in the future.

There are Liu E and Zhao Zhen, who Li Zhang had the most contact with. Their fates did not seem to have changed much. However, Li Zhang thought again, he had changed the fate of many people, such as Wild Dog, Huozi, Chou Niang, and others, but there were Jin Shan and others. However, these people have no records in history. In this way, it seems that the more famous people in history, the harder their fate will be to change?

"Forget it, no matter what, I can only give it a try at this time!" Li Zhang immediately brought the medicine box to Li Shunrong's room. After opening the medicine box, he took out a small bag from it. There were two antibiotics in the bag, namely penicillin and metronidazole. These two are antibiotics that are commonly used in later generations. So Li Zhang not only prepared it himself, but also found some on the plane. Penicillin is for injection, and metronidazole is also for injection liquid and oral medicine.

However, both antibiotics have expired, and Li Zhang was also a little confused at this time, not because he was worried about whether he should use it. In fact, Li Shunrong's disease was so serious that the two imperial doctors were helpless. If they let the disease develop, they might not be able to wake up. So in this case, Li Zhang could only treat his life as a living horse and bet on his character once.

But Li Zhang is now struggling with which type to use. Penicillin and metronidazole are both effective against tetanus. The effect of penicillin seems to be a little better, but this thing has the same negative effect, so I won’t talk about allergies. In Li Shunrong’s current situation, if he is allergic, he will definitely not be able to survive. In addition, even if he is not allergic, this thing will be stored for too long. If there are other situations, it can also be fatal.

In contrast, the chemical properties of the active ingredient of metronidazole are relatively stable and should have a longer effective period. Moreover, the safety of this thing is stronger than that of penicillin. Although some adverse reactions of nausea and vomiting may occur during use, they are all normal and will disappear after stopping the drug.
