Such a facial appearance indicates that the patient is chronically ill and malnourished.
At this stage, the diagnosis may not be clear, and the doctor dare not prescribe medicine casually. No hanging bottle was given, but only oxygen inhalation was given. A double-ended nasal cannula was hung on the patient's nostrils to connect to the oxygen output of the wall oxygen channel.
I remember that the medical record previously stated that the patient had a problem with his legs.
Geng Yongzhe came over and lifted the lower half of the quilt, exposing his brother's legs for Xie to examine.
Bending down, Xie Wanying carefully examined the patient's legs. Basically, there was no obvious sign of fracture in either leg. This was because the patient did not undergo surgery for the fracture and there was no scar.
It is just a splint fixation. A mild fracture will not be noticeable after it has healed, so an X-ray is needed for verification.
"Xiaohui, can you try to straighten your legs?" Xie Wanying asked the patient.
Someone was calling his name.
Geng Yonghui opened his eyes, and a long-haired girl appeared in his blurry vision. Under the fluorescent light in the ward, the girl's gentle eyes sparkled a little like his mother. Turning around, he asked his brother next to him: "Am I dreaming?"
...
...
The younger brother felt that he had dreamed of an angel like their mother.
Knowing that his brother was missing his mother, Geng Yongzhe smiled bitterly and told his brother: "She is my classmate, Dr. Xie. I told you before that it was she who suggested you go to this hospital for a check-up."
It turned out to be my brother's classmate. Geng Yonghui nodded, trust in his eyes, and turned to the doctor and said, "My legs are straightened."
The patient said that his legs were straight, but in fact the two legs were slightly externally rotated when placed on the bed. It was not that the patient was deliberately disobeying the doctor, but that the patient did not realize that he could not do it.
Seeing this, Geng Yongzhe turned his face away and calmed his breathing. He had to control his emotions and not let his brother find out about his illness.
"Come, lift your legs." Xie Wanying said to the patient.
Geng Yonghui slowly and laboriously raised his right leg, then his left leg. Due to lack of strength, he seemed to be struggling when raising his legs, and they were less than a fist high before he lowered them weakly.
Xie Wanying clenched her fist and placed it on the sole of the patient's foot, trying to get the patient to kick his legs to test the patient's lower limb strength.
Geng Yonghui puffed up his cheeks as if he was trying to suck milk, but it was useless, as if he couldn't kick his legs.
It can be seen that the patient is a good kid, and he cooperates with the doctor in everything. Why would such a good kid have his legs broken? Thinking of this, Xie Wanying understood Geng's feelings of caring for his brother.
Since the previous examination and test results could not distinguish the functional impairment of the patient's lower limbs, Xie Wanying went around the bed, helped the patient to bend his knees, and then let go. The patient's lower limbs maintained this position for less than a few seconds and then slowly fell to the bottom. The same happened to the left lower limb.
The last test she did was the Barr 6 lower limb test, the first test of the knee drop test, which was a relatively obvious positive sign. In addition, she had previously asked the patient to straighten his legs and rotate them externally, which was the Jackson sign. These test results fully showed that the patient had signs of mild paresis.
Pick up a cotton swab, turn your head upside down, and use the tip of the bamboo stick to stroke the skin of the patient's limbs to check the patient's deep and shallow sensation.
The word "mild" in "mild paresis" definitely means it is still good. If the symptoms are found in the early stage, it should be in time to find out the cause. Because the symptoms are mild and difficult to distinguish, doctors who do not suspect this point will not easily test the patient.
