I Can Talk to the Internal Organs-Chapter 299 - 265: Rib Fracture, Gallbladder Rupture

Holding the registration card, Lu Xiaoxi crossed the lobby and saw a long corridor. Inside the corridor, each doorway clearly stated what department it belonged to.

As she passed each door, she could see the outpatient room crowded with patients.

So many people!

Lu Xiaoxi had also been to several other hospitals in Jianghan.

The outpatient rooms at Jianghan Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine were hardly ever overcrowded, while at Jianghan People's Hospital, the outpatient rooms were almost always full. However, those outpatient rooms were not as large as those of this Traditional Chinese Medicine Hospital, so when it comes to the number of people, Lu Xiaoxi felt that this hospital had just as many outpatients as Jianghan People's Hospital.

"This hospital is pretty good, so many people!"

"It seems to have only been open for a few months."

"I heard it's Dr. Lu's hospital. Where did he earn so much money?"

"He's from a family of traditional Chinese medicine; his grandfather worked for decades, surely there's savings!"

"Don't be ridiculous, even a Chinese medicine practitioner working for a hundred or two hundred years couldn't possibly earn hundreds of millions."

"Probably has connections, this building used to be an abandoned building. How could it be converted into a hospital without government approval."

"Why doesn't Xiaoxi directly find Dr. Lu?"

"..."

Lu Xiaoxi's live broadcast room had just started not long ago, and already hundreds and thousands of people entered to watch.

Today's live content was already notified in the group, so those who came knew what Lu Xiaoxi was going to do.

Quickly, Lu Xiaoxi arrived at the gynecology outpatient room.

Out of consideration for others' privacy, Lu Xiaoxi did not directly aim the camera at the outpatient room but instead turned the lens towards herself.

She interacted with viewers in the live stream while waiting for the doctor to call her number.

"Make way, make way..."

At this moment, Lu Xiaoxi saw a group of people coming down the corridor, with one person covered in blood being carried by the crowd. Two nurses beside them were trying to stop them, with one seemingly making a phone call.

"Director, there's a car accident at the hospital entrance. We've called 120, but one injured person's condition is unclear. Sister Liu and I have done some basic treatment, but some patients said you could save him, so they brought the injured person in, we... oh, okay."

Lu Xiaoxi watched as this group of people slowly proceeded to the deepest part of the corridor. Shortly after, from the innermost outpatient room, someone walked out.

It was Lu Jiu.

Upon receiving the nurse's call, he immediately came out of the outpatient room.

At the same time, he also called on Wang Xu, the director of trauma department.

A case of car accident followed by bleeding obviously required the intervention of a Chinese medicine practitioner from the trauma department.

"Dr. Lu, Dr. Lu, please take a look at him. He was just hit by a car and flew three or four meters; there are definitely internal injuries..."

Lu Jiu frowned, "Put him down first."

Upon hearing this, everyone immediately complied.

Lu Jiu then squatted in front of the injured person, detecting that he was already in a semi-comatose state, and directly began pulse diagnosis.

When he tapped his hand on the injured person's Cun Guan Chi pulse, the dialogue among the Five Viscera was extraordinarily noisy.

"Quickly, quickly, the Qi and blood are completely chaotic, hurry up and help stabilize it! Liver Wood, keep the blood hidden, don't let it move chaotically anymore. Spleen Earth, make sure to guard the blood within the meridians, don't let it overflow any further. Fei Jin, I've induced instant coma, now the body is under our emergency control. Quickly calm the chaotic Qi, it must be swift; the external impact is rampantly causing destruction, if we don't stabilize the Qi and blood soon, the damage will be even greater with time!" Heart Fire said.

"Heart Fire, his ribs are broken, what should we do now?" Hydronephrosis said.

"Can't worry too much now, the primary issue is the rampant Qi and blood; if we don't stabilize it, recovery of the bones will be slower. Quickly mobilize your Kidney Essence and cooperate with me for emergency repair!" Heart Fire said.

"Not good, Heart Fire, the impact ruptured the gallbladder, blood is starting to flow from there, I have no way." Liver Wood said.

"How come it has problems at such a crucial moment?" Heart Fire said.

"It was already a bit oversized with pus normally, even without this impact, given enough time it would rupture too. Now it's adding insult to injury. If this situation isn't handled and pus and blood overflow, it becomes even more troublesome for us!" Liver Wood said.

"Unlucky, really unlucky, ah ah ah~~ so annoying! Might as well not live at all!" Heart Fire said.

"..."

Rib fracture?

Gallbladder rupture?

Overflowing blood from various meridians throughout the body?

All Qi flow is chaotic.

These problems are truly quite tricky!

"Director, I'm here!" Wang Xu arrived outside the hospital corridor at this time too.

Seeing this, Lu Jiu immediately said, "This patient has rib fractures, gallbladder rupture, multiple meridians with blood overflow throughout the body. Additionally, being struck with great force and carried in, his entire body's Qi is now extremely chaotic, possibly facing life-threatening situations at any moment!"

In fact, if this injured person hadn't been carried in, the Qi flow might not be disrupted so badly.

Because when a person is suddenly struck or falls, if the internal organs aren't entirely ruptured, post-injury organ damage often results from chaotic movements after the injury.

When our five viscera suddenly receive a heavy blow, there's actually a buffering effect internally, and immediately afterwards, the internal Qi and blood will be completely chaotic. But as long as you remain still, letting the body slowly adapt and restore the Qi and blood to a normal state, the damage can be minimized.

Conversely, if you immediately get up and run around after an injury, not giving the body time to adapt, while the Qi flow remains chaotic, it's easier to sustain injuries at that point.

Many news reports have similar cases; for instance, a pair of siblings in a car accident: the sister sat on the ground in pain, motionless, while the brother immediately stood up and began walking after the collision. Post-hospital examination revealed the sister only had external injuries, while the brother was hospitalized.

There are also cases of falling four or five floors onto a car, even denting the car roof badly; the person remained motionless after being knocked unconscious. Later found by someone and called 120, taken to the hospital, and the internal organs were fine, only minor external injuries.

Therefore, once struck heavily or suddenly fallen, it's vital to provide the body a buffering time, learning to lie down where you fell, minimizing the damage.

Wang Xu frowned, he had handled many external injury cases, but none as severe as this patient's.

Too serious!

"Director, I can use Red Bean Danggui Powder for the gallbladder rupture; for the fracture, we might need Director Zeng to take a look." Wang Xu said.

"Do we have any ready Red Bean Danggui Powder?" Lu Jiu asked.

"Yes." Wang Xu replied.

"Then hurry up!" Lu Jiu instructed.

"Okay!" Wang Xu immediately headed to the pharmacy.

Seeing him leave, Lu Jiu lightly touched the patient's chest.

Sure enough, it was fractured, and indeed the real ribs, the sixth and seventh segment were broken.

Fortunately, the broken bones didn't pierce the liver, or a liver hemorrhage would be even more troublesome.

Let's start resetting the patient's bones first.

After determining the fracture location, Lu Jiu began carefully setting the bones.

Repairing fractured ribs is particularly challenging in bone setting because these bones are close to the internal organs; too little force is ineffective, too much force can injure the organs, far more complex than bones in the extremities.

Even many seasoned bone setters are extremely cautious with rib bone setting.

They usually opt to have the patient get an X-ray before considering whether to intervene.

No one typically acts like Lu Jiu, touching and directly intervening.

Lu Xiaoxi stood among the crowd, her phone aimed at Lu Jiu.

What's he doing?

Luckily, there were insiders in her live stream.

"Wow, fractured ribs require an X-ray before you dare intervene?"

"Can Dr. Lu do bone setting?"

"Amazing, isn't intervening in car accident cases risky?"

"Can traditional Chinese medicine handle emergency tasks?"

"Don't mess around, isn't it alright to wait for the ambulance?"

"Didn't you hear? Dr. Lu confirmed fractures and gallbladder rupture just by pulse diagnosis. Would he dare act if he wasn't capable? Stop complaining!"

"..."
