Chapter 159: Mutual Counteraction
Ruan Yuping's eyes flickered slightly, and she curled her lips as she explained softly, "It was given to me by Sister Li. I did her a small favor last time, and to thank me, she gave me a tomato she grew at home."
There were many older women with the surname Li in the Fifth Company. Yun Qiao didn’t know which one Ruan Yuping was talking about, but she didn’t ask any more questions.
As a doctor, it is enough to know the cause of the disease. There is no need to be so curious.
Yun Qiao said, "Comrade Ruan, don't worry. You're fine. You just ate something that was incompatible with your diet, and your stomach can't handle it."
"Incompatible foods?" Ruan Yuping frowned slightly.
"Yes." Yun Qiao explained to him, "Sweet potatoes and tomatoes are incompatible. Eating them together can easily cause vomiting, abdominal pain, and diarrhea. Comrade Ruan, remember this: don't eat them together next time."
Ruan Yuping nodded: "I understand. After this lesson, I will definitely not dare to eat together next time."
Yun Qiao said, "I'm going to give you an anti-nausea and pain-relieving injection right now to relieve your vomiting symptoms. Otherwise, if you keep vomiting, your body won't be able to handle it."
Ruan Yuping nodded: "Oh, Doctor Ye, thank you for your help."
Yun Qiao quickly prepared the acupuncture needles and brought over the treatment tray.
Chen Fengxia turned away tactfully.
Yun Qiao pulled the curtain outside the treatment bed and said to Ruan Yuping, "Comrade Ruan, please pull your pants down a little."
Ruan Yuping's cheeks flushed slightly, and she uttered an inaudible "hmm".
He lowered his eyes, looking very embarrassed, and his movements were hesitant.
Yun Qiao didn't rush him. After he slowly lowered his pants, he said quietly, "That's enough."
As a professional doctor, Yun Qiao has no distractions towards her patients. No matter whether they are men, women, children or the elderly, they are all the same patients to her.
Yun Qiao disinfected, inserted the needle, applied the medicine, and then removed the needle in one go. Finally, he pressed the cotton ball onto the needle hole and reminded Ruan Yuping, "It's tight. Keep it pressed."
After giving Ruan Yuping the injection, Yun Qiao lifted the curtain and came out.
Chen Fengxia followed Yun Qiao to the counter and asked Yun Qiao worriedly, "Did Comrade Ruan get better after the injection?"
Yun Qiao shook his head. "Of course not. This injection is just for nausea and pain relief, to make him suffer less. The sweet potatoes and tomatoes are still interacting with each other in his body, producing toxins, so the effects of this food incompatibility will continue for a while."
Chen Fengxia frowned upon hearing this. She felt sorry for Ruan Yuping and couldn't help but ask, "So, will he just be miserable like this forever? Is there no other way?"
"He won't feel too bad after the injection. At most, he'll have a stomachache." Yun Qiao saw Chen Fengxia's unhappy expression and said a few more words, "Actually, the best way is to induce vomiting. It's almost five o'clock now, and it's been five hours since he finished lunch. Vomiting won't make anything happen. You should ask him to drink more water. Drinking more water will speed up his metabolism and help expel the toxins faster."
Chen Fengxia nodded worriedly: "Tuo."
