From Wang Xiao, we can learn that Chen Qingcheng knows why Wang Xiao is unwilling to return to Yanjing?
Now Wang Xiao can support himself in Binhai City, so why should he go back?
Xiao Chen went to chat with his uncle about the recent situation.
Basically, all the patients in the traditional Chinese medicine clinic can definitely be cured as long as my uncle treats them.
There was only one person whose condition seemed more serious.
"Tetanus patient?"
"Yes, he is a migrant worker in his forties. He was stabbed in his right hand at a construction site. He didn't pay attention at first, but then he started to develop symptoms. After being injected with tetanus vaccine in the hospital, it still didn't work. Finally, he came here to see me for help.
.”
"Uncle Master, what's his condition now?"
"It's more serious. The medicine I prescribed still didn't help him control his condition."
Of course, Ye Sheng knew that Xiao Chen knew more about medical skills than he did.
Because his master had passed on more medical skills to his senior brother than him, and Xiao Chen's master's talent was better than his junior brother's.
Among them, Ye Sheng did not master much of the most mysterious ancient Chinese medical skills.
"Then what's his condition now?"
"It's a little serious."
This patient has actually been treated in the hospital, but the cost is huge and without medical insurance, it is impossible for the contractor at the construction site to pay much for his treatment.
I would rather pay the other party 300,000 yuan at a time!
In other words, after the other party gets this money, his future life and death will have nothing to do with the contractor or the construction site.
"Uncle, tetanus is indeed difficult to treat. However, I want to check the situation first."
According to Western medicine, tetanus is a specific infection in which Clostridium tetani invades the human body through skin or mucous membrane wounds, grows and reproduces in a hypoxic environment, produces toxins and causes muscle spasm.
Tetanus toxin mainly attacks motor neurons in the nervous system, so the disease is clinically characterized by trismus, paroxysmal spasms, and tonic spasms. The main muscle groups affected include the masseter, dorsal spinalis, and abdominal muscles.
Limb muscles, etc.
The incubation period of tetanus is usually 7 to 8 days, which can be as short as 24 hours or as long as months or years. The shorter the incubation period, the worse the prognosis. About 90% of patients develop the disease within 2 weeks after the injury, and occasionally the patient develops the disease within 2 weeks after the injury.
Symptoms of tetanus occur after the removal of a foreign body that has been in the body for many years.
The population is generally susceptible, and wounds of all types and sizes may be contaminated with soil or sludge containing C. tetani, but only a minority of patients will develop the disease.
In the warm season when there is a lot of outdoor activity, injuries and illnesses are more common. There is no lasting immunity after illness, so you can be infected again.
In traditional Chinese medicine, tetanus refers to a disease in which tetanus first occurs, and then wind poison invades through the wound and causes convulsions.
Its clinical characteristics are: a history of skin and flesh trauma, a certain incubation period, tonic spasms of the whole body muscles, paroxysmal twitches, and the muscles of the whole body are still tense and tonic during the interval between twitches, accompanied by fever, but they are conscious, and they often die due to complications.
The name of tetanus was first seen in "Taiping Shenghui Prescription" of the Song Dynasty, which states: "The body is rigid, the mouth cannot be opened, the limbs are trembling, the bones are painful, and the face is slanted. These are all injuries caused by wind evil, so it is called tetanus."
"
The evil of wind poison exists widely. It not only occurs in skin and flesh wounds, but also in lax disinfection during surgery, contamination of the umbilical cord of newborns, improper handling of childbirth and abortion, or poisoning of bedsores. It can also cause tetanus. Those caused by trauma are called
Metal trauma spasm; if it occurs after childbirth, it is called postpartum spasm; if it is caused by the umbilical cord cutting in newborns, it is called umbilical wind inhalation.
In the past, the mortality rate from tetanus was still very high.
Even now, if care is not taken, the mortality rate from tetanus will exceed 10%.
Now for those patients, if the tetanus vaccine does not work, then either death or a miracle may be waiting for them.
Now even Master Shishu has no way to treat him, so this patient's condition should be more serious.
Looking for Cai Xiaoling.
Cai Xiaoling called the patient's family and asked them to send the patient over again.
Not long after, Xiao Chen saw it.
A middle-aged man in his forties with dark skin should be this patient.
At this time, when Xiao Chen looked at the other party's symptoms, he found that the other party's condition was already very serious.
It has shown difficulty in opening the mouth and trismus, the abdominal muscles are as hard as a plate, the neck is stiff, the head is tilted back, and the abdominal muscles contract at the same time. Because the back muscles are stronger, the trunk is twisted into an arch, forming an "angular arch"
Opisthotonus” or “opisthotonus”.
Even frowning, retracting the corners of the mouth, grinning "wryly"; larynx obstruction, difficulty swallowing, difficulty ventilating, etc.
When Xiao Chen examined the other party's wound, he found that the other party's wound was severely abscessed.
These migrant workers usually work and have wounds on their bodies, hands and feet.
It's either an injury here or an injury there, but none of these are fatal and it will usually be fine if the bleeding is stopped.
However, when you encounter this kind of tetanus infection, it is serious and fatal.
Xiao Chen knew that wound, and the doctor must have cleaned it many times. However, now he could tell just by looking at it that there was still wind poison and blood stasis.
In this case, it certainly cannot be cured so easily.
"Doctor Xiao, how are you doing?"
the patient's wife asked.
"Don't worry, I have a way to cure it."
It's not fatal, Xiao Chen can definitely cure it.
"Uncle Master, the patient still has wind poison and blood stasis poison. These poisons must be forced out first."
Of course, this is according to Chinese medicine.
According to Western medicine, it was caused by Clostridium tetanus multiplying in his wounds and even in his body.
"Doctor Xiao, you must save my husband."
Xiao Chen comforted the other party.
A prescription was prescribed.
Uncle Ye Sheng took it over and looked at it, and found that it was actually not much different from the prescription he prescribed.
But now Xiao Chen used a sharp knife to prick the opponent's wound, and black and smelly pus and blood flowed out. He spent time cleaning it up, then took his homemade powder, sprinkled it on it, and then bandaged it.
"Go back and drink the medicinal soup on time, and you'll be fine by then."
That'll be fine?
In fact, the symptoms of rabies are somewhat similar to those of tetanus. However, rabies is more serious and has a higher mortality rate. Especially when there is no effective drug treatment in Western medicine, many people think that the mortality rate of rabies is 100%.
of.
However, Chinese medicine still has ways to treat it.
So now facing tetanus, Xiao Chen didn't feel anything.
After the couple left, the uncle just thought that Xiao Chen was using ancient Chinese medicine to treat the other party, but he didn't expect it to be a normal treatment method.
"Uncle Master, I have actually encountered this disease before in the countryside, and my master taught me, so it is not very difficult."
In fact, in the end, if you just prescribe the right medicine and treat it, there will be no problem.
