The woman who had spoken earlier disagreed with sending the child to the hospital. The child was already in such a state, he would die if he went to the hospital again. She grabbed Ning Xi's hand and said, "No, comrade, please help me take a look. Please."
Seeing Ning Xi still hesitant, she knew that her husband had frightened the other person. She turned around and said quickly and loudly to the crowd that had gathered to watch the excitement:
"Please bear witness for me! I beg this woman to heal my son. No matter what the consequences, I will bear them all!"
The tearful look of the woman instantly won the sympathy of the crowd, and they all said, "Okay! We will testify for you, little doctor, just take a look at her."
"My son came home last night and said he had a sore throat. He didn't eat anything this morning." Perhaps because she was afraid that Ning Xi would refuse again, the woman hurriedly stated her symptoms.
Hearing this, Ning Xi overturned her own guess, "Did you eat something spicy yesterday?"
The child has difficulty breathing, taking in less air, and making unclear sounds. If there is any delay, he may suffocate.
"Yes, yes, we had hot pot at Qianjin Restaurant."
After quickly taking the child's pulse and observing his throat, Ning Xi concluded that it was acute epiglottitis, with the epiglottal mucosa highly swollen, the entrance to the throat narrowed, and breathing difficult.
Generally, if this situation is serious, the patient should be sent to the hospital immediately for surgery, including tracheotomy or cricothyroid membrane puncture. Obviously, it is too late now.
Fortunately, Ning Xi had the system. She took out her precious silver needle box, let the child lie on his back, and quickly gave him a few injections.
Warm needles can regulate the body and reduce swelling and relieve pain.
"Cough--" The child suddenly spat out a mouthful of pus, and his face wrinkled because of the discomfort in his throat.
But his breathing gradually increased and his face looked a little brighter.
"Is that all?" the woman asked in surprise.
"It just stimulated him to spit out the blocked mucus. You still need to send him to the hospital for observation, but he shouldn't be in danger of death now."
Ning Xi took the patient's pulse again, and this time the pulse seemed to be more stable.
"Thank you, comrade!" The woman's eyes were full of gratitude. The man standing beside her like a wooden stake had a pale face and bowed deeply to Ning Xi without saying a word.
"It's okay, you guys go to the hospital right away. I'm just doing this as a last resort, not a formal treatment."
Ning Xi said it in a satisfactory manner and did not charge any consultation fees to avoid being caught by others. After all, she was still an apprentice.
Just consider it as doing good deeds every day.
The woman was also very sensible: "Yes, yes, we forced you to help, everyone saw it..."
