Check-in at the Hospital: The First Surgery Shocked the Nation!-Chapter 73 - 64: Are You a Devil? The Man with Gastric Stones

Chapter 73: Chapter 64: Are You a Devil? The Man with Gastric Stones

"Eight years of continuous postgraduate and doctoral study, plus six years of work, a total of fourteen years."

He immediately answered upon hearing this question.

"Then you should know, besides hard work, what’s the most important thing in the medical field?"

Qin Feng nodded and continued to ask.

"Talent!"

Zhang Chen blurted out instinctively upon hearing this.

"That’s the answer you’re looking for."

He picked up another piece of meat, placed it on Zhang Chen’s plate, and said calmly.

...

Zhang Chen stared at the lamb on his plate, silent.

After an unknown amount of time, he finally snapped back to reality, still incredulous.

"Is there really a genius in this world who defies common sense..."

Bullshit!

Qin Feng smiled broadly but cursed inwardly!

What else can I say aside from this?

Tell you I have a system and all the rewards come from it?

Then wouldn’t you just look for a chance to knife me and wait for the loot?

I’m not that stupid!

Then, he comforted Zhang Chen, who had completely lost confidence, telling him that hard work doesn’t guarantee failure, but not working hard definitely does.

Only by continuing to work hard can you see hope.

Don’t compare yourself to a genius; talent determines a person’s ceiling, but effort determines a person’s baseline.

He almost felt like he was becoming a capitalist...

Of course,

Zhang Chen was completely convinced and became one of the hospital staff who admired Qin Feng.

Understanding that they were not the same kind of person, he focused on doing his job well and tried his best to treat and save people.

He couldn’t care about anything else; that was for people like Qin Feng.

Just don’t know why, suddenly felt that being a doctor is just an ordinary job.

The grand ambition of becoming a top internal medicine expert and saving countless lives has faded a lot.

....

The two chatted for a long time, past the point.

"Come on, Qin Feng, I’ll toast you with tea instead of wine!"

Zhang Chen held up his teacup and laughed heartily.

"Alright."

Qin Feng was about to reach for his water cup when his phone suddenly rang; it was Wei Dajing calling.

"Hello, what’s up?"

"Qin Feng! Are you the devil? Why is it that whenever I’m on the night shift with you, I’m always as busy as a dog?"

Wei Dajing’s helpless voice came over the phone,

"There’s an emergency patient; come over and take a look."

"Alright, I’m coming now."

After Qin Feng said it, he hung up, looked apologetically at Zhang Chen,

"Got to work, I’ve got to go."

"Alright, alright! You go ahead and get busy. I’ll treat you next time."

Zhang Chen nodded repeatedly, waving him off for fear of delaying him even a second,

"Boss, pack this for me, please!"

...

In the ER,

A middle-aged couple was sitting in the examination room, the man’s face twisted in pain, holding his stomach.

"What’s the matter?"

Qin Feng entered the examination room and asked.

"Qin Feng, you’re here."

Tonight’s on duty was Zhao Yitian, who was delighted to see him and stood up immediately,

"This patient has stomach pain, and tests have been ordered, but he doesn’t want us in the ER, insists on a doctor from Internal Medicine."

"Oh? Is that so?"

Qin Feng raised an eyebrow upon hearing this, nodded, and sat in the seat,

"Hello, I’m Dr. Qin Feng from Internal Medicine, you can tell me what’s going on."

"You’re an Internal Medicine doctor?"

The man looked at Qin Feng’s young appearance, a bit skeptical,

"So young."

"Hehe~ who told you young people can’t be doctors? If you’re doubtful, feel free to ask anyone in the hospital."

Qin Feng chuckled and said calmly,

"Trust our doctors if you’re here for treatment. If you don’t even trust us, then you might want to seek more expert advice."

"What’s with your attitu...?"

The man was about to express displeasure when a sharp pain bent him over, clutching his abdomen.

"Alright, let’s focus on the medical issue."

Qin Feng found it quite speechless seeing this,

"Bear it and lie down; let me check you."

"Ouch ouch~"

The man stood up, enduring the pain, and lay down by the bed.

"Tell me, where does it hurt, and what kind of pain is it?"

Qin Feng asked.

"I’ve had some stomach pain for the past couple of days, and it’s been quite bloated, but today it’s particularly painful!"

The man’s pain subsided quickly and eased a lot in no time.

"Have you had any vomiting or nausea?"

"Yes, yes, nausea, can’t eat, feel like vomiting at the sight of food, threw up before coming just now."

Qin Feng nodded upon hearing this; it could basically be judged as a problem in the digestive system.

Of course, it’s not ruled out that it’s a secondary reaction caused by other lesions. Still, after a simple check, no other symptoms were found yet.

"Have you eaten anything unhygienic or uncomfortable lately?"

"Unhygienic? No, since my stomach’s been uncomfortable, I’ve eaten at home these days, skipping several drinking sessions."

The man mentioned this, seemingly with some regret.

Qin Feng shook his head; this definitely needs checking as internal medicine conditions are often too complicated.

With symptoms like bloating, stomach pain, vomiting, there’re at least dozens of causes.

"Alright, let’s first get an examination done."

He handed the form to the woman beside him and supported the man out of the examination room.

About twenty minutes later,

The couple returned and handed the report to Qin Feng.

He took it and glanced, then handed it to Zhao Yitian beside him, who was also startled upon seeing the examination results.

Wow!

This gastric stone is substantial!

"Tell me, what have you been eating a lot of lately?" 𝒇𝙧𝙚𝓮𝔀𝓮𝒃𝙣𝓸𝒗𝒆𝒍.𝙘𝒐𝒎

Qin Feng looked at the man and asked directly.

"A lot? Beef, fish, shrimp, Yanghe Dream 6+, made a chicken tonight, persimmons..."

The man thought for a bit and started listing them like cherished items.

(--)...

Qin Feng stopped him suddenly when he heard persimmons mentioned.

"Persimmons? How many did you eat?"

"Recently, I’ve eaten quite a bit, since I like persimmons, grew a tree in the yard downstairs. The ones from the supermarket weren’t good, so now that they’ve ripened it’s as good as it gets."

The man explained,

"How much is quite a bit?"

Qin Feng couldn’t help but ask.

"Usually three to five a day, eight at most."

Holy moly!

That’s about 3 pounds of persimmons a day to start!

Qin Feng couldn’t help but give the man a great big thumbs-up!

Amazing!

No wonder you got gastric stones; this is purely self-inflicted, just like that girl with the cherries a while back.

Why do these people always binge on their favorites?

Whatever it is, consuming it in huge quantities in a short time will disrupt the body’s balance, causing illnesses.

What’s more, persimmons are rich in pectin, fiber, and other substances. Under the action of tannic acid and gastric acid, they can combine with proteins to form insoluble tannic acid proteins, which precipitate in the stomach and are not excreted.

While tannic acid protein, pectin, fiber, etc., bonding with fruit peel and other indigestible food form gastric stones quickly.

This speed even exceeds normal human cognition, as it can form in as little as two minutes!

You read it right!

In just 2 minutes, gastric stones can form!
