Practicing Medical Skills in a Small Clinic-Chapter 219 - 140: Not Only Is the Voice Familiar, but the Face Too. Finally Got In
On Monday morning, Li Jingsheng hurried to the manual osteopathy outpatient clinic at the Second Hospital’s orthopedic department.
There has been a major breakthrough in the Bone Touching Skill, intensifying his interest in manual osteopathy.
Currently, the small clinic is facing a major challenge, and the best way to promptly overcome the difficulty is to showcase medical skills.
If he can master the fourth advanced osteopathy technique and elevate it to the Master Level at this critical juncture, he can officially establish a reputation for manual osteopathy.
At that time, it will certainly bring great benefits to his small clinic.
"Good morning, Dr. Li!" Dr. Chen greeted him warmly, with a surprisingly enthusiastic attitude.
Of course, he understood what Dr. Chen was scheming.
He just responded superficially.
"Morning!"
"Teacher Li, please call the patient in!"
Dr. Chen felt more confident seeing Li Jingsheng arrive.
He instructed the nurse to call the patient in.
Previously, they wouldn’t dare call patients in for treatment until Doctor Xu had arrived.
Soon, the first patient was brought into the manual setting room, with a common wrist sprain.
Dr. Chen knew he couldn’t handle it, so he simply let Li Jingsheng take over.
Li Jingsheng examined the patient’s bone and looked at the X-rays, then casually manipulated the patient’s hand with two pulls.
"Alright, try gripping an object with this hand again."
Li Jingsheng said to the patient.
The fifty-something man had accidentally fallen on his way home from the park last night. Other areas suffered minor abrasions, but the left hand was the worst injured. The wrist swelled up immediately.
Later, he found he couldn’t hold anything steadily, so he hurriedly went to the hospital for emergency treatment.
X-rays showed a sprained, displaced wrist joint.
Unfortunately, the manual osteopathy clinic had already closed by then.
So, he came early today for treatment.
Being the first in line meant he had waited outside for a long time.
Though the manual clinic introduced a self-service ticket machine to prevent conflicts over queueing.
And the machine only starts issuing tickets around 7:50 in the morning.
But this didn’t hinder the patients’ eagerness for treatment, as many patients or their families lined up early by the ticket machine.
The man heard this and tried to open his left hand, feeling a bit of pain.
However, it was much better than before treatment.
Moreover, he had regained his gripping function.
"You look quite young, but your medical skills are impressive! A big hospital truly has great medical skills! My wrist is a bit swollen, can you help reduce the swelling?"
"Hehe, you’re too kind! The wrist hematoma is due to blood stagnation, and now that I’ve set your bone back in place, the blood will circulate smoothly. By tomorrow morning, the hematoma should resolve itself. Although your left wrist joint has been successfully reset, you still need to wear a brace for three or four weeks without lifting heavy objects with your left hand to prevent joint displacement again."
The wrist joint consists of eight bones in two rows, a rather complex structure.
Its recovery period tends to be longer.
Li Jingsheng doesn’t have the skill to treat localized hematomas since he hasn’t learned some methods yet.
Doctor Xu has the capability to handle it.
However, it takes quite a long time, and with many patients waiting in line at the manual setting clinic, spending excessive time on non-critical hematomas isn’t practical.
Typically, hematomas are left to disappear on their own.
Li Jingsheng isn’t needed to apply the brace to the patient, as Dr. Chen took over the finishing work nearby.
"Dr. Li, should we call in the next patient?"
By now, Li Li also recognized Li Jingsheng’s skills and directly asked him.
"Yes, call them in!"
After treating a patient, Bone Touching Skill +1, Ordinary Manual Osteopathy +1, Traction Pull +1, Life Value +11.
Also, he practiced a bit of the lifting and pressing technique.
This harvest was quite substantial.
Handling it alone was far better than practicing under Doctor Xu.
Yet, he still hadn’t mastered many advanced osteopathy techniques and skills, and many hadn’t even begun learning, so he couldn’t truly work independently.
So he arrived early in the morning to seize one or two ordinary manual setting operations before Doctor Xu arrived.
The second patient arrived.
She was a middle-aged woman in her fifties accompanied by a young man.
Seeing this patient, Li Jingsheng chuckled.
What a coincidence, this was the suspected cancer patient who caused trouble at his clinic yesterday!
"Doctor, my husband injured his hip joint and has difficulty walking. Can you help reset the bone?"
"Did he have an examination?"
Li Jingsheng wore a mask and a white coat, so the three hadn’t recognized him yet.
Perhaps they didn’t expect a small clinic doctor to work in a big hospital.
"He had an examination."
The man showed an X-ray taken at the People’s Hospital.
The date was recent, just two days ago.
The X-ray equipment at the People’s Hospital was far more advanced than the ’grandpa machine’ at Li Jingsheng’s small clinic.
The clarity made Li Jingsheng envy, almost drooling.
If his Sunshine Clinic had such an advanced high-frequency machine, it would be fantastic.
But thinking of the expensive cost, he could only sigh.
The clinic’s medical lab probably wouldn’t have enough space.
Installing higher clarity X-ray equipment requires purchase costs exceeding 130,000 yuan, along with necessary room requirements and conditions costing several tens of thousands.
