Practicing Medical Skills in a Small Clinic-Chapter 151 - 117: Getting Rich Quietly, Secretly Improving Medical Skills (Part 2)

Chapter 151: Chapter 117: Getting Rich Quietly, Secretly Improving Medical Skills (Part 2)

But after all, due to their age, they couldn’t bring themselves to apologize to Li Jingsheng. So they could only express their apologies in these ways.

"No need to be so polite! Although your grandson’s right hand is healed, it must be bandaged and slung for a while. Children recover quickly, usually about three weeks is enough."

Li Jingsheng said to the two elderly people.

"During this period, be sure not to let the right hand make too large movements. If it leads to habitual dislocation, it’ll be hard to treat. Plus, if not cared for properly, it may cause early joint degeneration, which will affect the child for life."

There was a bit of scaremongering in it.

It’s not all scaremongering; if dislocation happens repeatedly, causing the joint capsule to loosen, it can indeed be very troublesome.

"We’ll listen to you, absolutely listen to you."

Hearing it might affect the child’s whole life, the grandparents’ attitude was surprisingly consistent and determined.

This was precisely the effect Li Jingsheng wanted.

After bracing the sling, the little boy was a bit naughty, complaining it’s uncomfortable and wanting to remove his right hand.

"Good boy, Xiaobao, listen to the doctor."

The old lady quickly coaxed him.

"I’m not listening, I just won’t listen, I want to take off this broken strap. My hand is already healed; what’s the use of it!"

The little boy didn’t listen at all, even reaching out to take off the sling.

The old man got anxious.

After much effort, they finally found a skilled doctor to fix the child’s right hand. If the sling is removed, and the child ends up disabled for life, what should they do?

"Good grandson, be obedient, alright?"

Grandpa’s expression almost looked like he was about to kneel before his grandson.

Li Jingsheng couldn’t help but shake his head, thinking this was more like a grandchild taking care of their grandparent. Raising a little ancestor indeed.

The drawbacks of cross-generational education are quite significant.

Excessive pampering is one of them.

The elderly in our country generally adore children, and they spoil their grandchildren to no end.

Almost with no limits.

"I just want to take it off, it’s not fun dangling like this at all!"

The little boy wouldn’t listen to anyone.

Li Jingsheng naturally wouldn’t butt in and say much.

After all, all the precautions have been explained to the family. How to take good care of the grandson and cooperate with the treatment is the family’s job.

If he dared to speak harshly to the little boy, the family wouldn’t be pleased.

"Not listening, right? I’ll call your dad, and when he spanks you, I won’t defend you."

As soon as the little boy heard this, he quieted down instantly.

But his mouth was pouted so high it could hang a bottle of oil.

The displeasure was written all over his face.

"Dr. Li, sorry to make you see this joke. The child has been with me and his grandma since he was a little over a year old, and we can’t bear to hit him usually. Only his dad can keep him in line."

The old man explained with an apologetic smile to Li Jingsheng.

"Hmph, my dad is just a bully, always knows how to use a cane to hit people." The little boy huffed heavily, protesting.

This, instead, made the three adults laugh.

After explaining some precautions, Li Jingsheng sent the three away and then pulled down the roller shutter of the clinic.

The old man and the old lady thanked him profusely as they left.

This was also the first time he officially started the bone-setting business in his little clinic.

Not bad, the first battle was a success.

Checking the attribute panel, he was surprised to find that his life value increased by 22 points in total.

Palpation diagnostics added 1 point to life value, successful bone-setting treatment added 1 point, and then receiving praise from the family added 10 points. Where did the remaining 10 points come from?

Could it be because both family members gave praise?

He quickly understood what it was about.

At the end of the skills section, a new medical skill appeared.

Stretching and Pulling Skill, beginner 0.1/10.

The main function of this medical skill is the manual bone setting and repositioning, but it seems it should have more than just this function.

This skill is also the second advanced bone setting technique among the eight bone setting techniques that Doctor Xu mentioned.

Being able to get started quickly undoubtedly greatly enhanced Li Jingsheng’s manual repositioning ability.

He wasn’t in a rush to upgrade this newly acquired medical skill.

Even though his life value balance was now 311 points again.

This time he plans to save up a bit more, and then upgrade his doctor level to Attending Level first.

Because after upgrading several of his important medical skills to Master Level, even with sufficient life value, he couldn’t enhance them further.

Just treating common colds, diarrhea, fever, and other minor ailments, it’s almost impossible for patients and families to present a banner of appreciation voluntarily.

It’s even hard to receive commendations.

After careful consideration, he thinks that only by taking on some slightly challenging diseases does he have a chance to receive a banner of appreciation.

For example, if the patient couldn’t be cured elsewhere but get healed at his place.

Out of gratitude, they are very likely to give him a banner of appreciation.

But to challenge diseases that even hospitals can’t treat, just thinking about it feels like a daunting task.

Not to mention top-level tertiary hospitals, even at a regular tertiary hospital like the Second Hospital, any senior attending physician can easily outshine him in their areas of expertise.

The road to becoming stronger is long and arduous!

However, as long as he uses his attribute panel wisely and upgrades rationally using life values, he believes that surely one day he will stand out prominently.

When he first obtained his golden finger, he set a goal for himself to surpass his main competitor, Quick Recovery Clinic.

Now, this goal has been achieved in multiple fields.

He believes that complete surpassing shouldn’t take too long.

Who is the next target?

It must be the Community Health Service Center.

In the past, in Li Jingsheng’s mind, this health service center was a giant that he dared not provoke.
