Feng Juan nodded and said, "Then you should wear more clothes. It's still raining outside and the wind is a bit chilly."
"good."
Yun Qiao got up and put on his clothes. Feng Juan brought him a pair of non-slip rain boots. Yun Qiao put them on and took out a mask from the medical kit and put it on. Then he opened the door and walked out of the bedroom.
When Yang Liu saw Yun Qiao coming out, she immediately stood up and said, "Dr. Qin, thank you. You are such a kind person."
Yun Qiao smiled faintly and said, "Let's go."
Feng Juan helped Yun Qiao carry the medical kit and opened an umbrella to protect him.
Yang Liu was perceptive and immediately said, "Aunt Feng, I'll help you carry the medical kit, and you can hold the umbrella for Doctor Qin."
Feng Juan nodded: "Okay, thank you."
Yang Liu smiled and said, "Why are you thanking me? I should be the one thanking you. It's the middle of the night and it's raining outside. I'm ashamed that you and Doctor Qin are willing to make this trip."
Feng Juan said, "She's a doctor. Doctors are compassionate. They'd rather endure some hardship themselves than let a child suffer."
Yang Liu said sincerely, "Yes, Doctor Qin is a very good person."
After leaving the courtyard, the three of them walked towards Cui Xuezhi's house in the alley.
Yang Liu walked in front carrying a medical kit, while Feng Juan and Yun Qiao walked side by side behind.
Feng Juan held an umbrella and carefully protected Yun Qiao, using a flashlight to illuminate the road ahead, reminding her all the time that the road was slippery in the rain and to be careful with her steps.
Arriving at Courtyard No. 9, Yang Liu pushed the door open and walked in, happily calling out to the inside, "Xuezhi, Doctor Qin is here."
"Come in." Cui Xuezhi replied from inside the house.
When Yun Qiao walked into the room, he saw Cui Xuezhi leaning against the kang in a listless manner, with Liu Liu lying beside her. Both mother and daughter's faces were flushed. Yun Qiao knew at a glance that both of them had a fever.
Yun Qiao frowned, opened the medical box, took out the thermometer, handed it to Yang Liu, and asked her to take the child's temperature.
While Yang Liu was taking the child's temperature, Yun Qiao asked about Cui Xuezhi's condition.
"What's going on? You have a fever too?"
Cui Xuezhi nodded. "I don't know what happened. I woke up with a sore throat yesterday morning. I drank a bowl of ginger soup and brown sugar water but it didn't help. By the evening, I had a fever."
Yun Qiao said, "Ginger soup is used to treat colds. Your throat hurts first, so it's probably a viral infection. Ginger soup won't help."
"All right."
Yun Qiao: "So you were the first to have a fever, right? And then Liuliu?"
Cui Xuezhi nodded.
Yun Qiao asked again: "Besides the fever, do you two have any other symptoms?"
Cui Xuezhi said: "I still feel dizzy, have a headache, and a sore throat, but nothing else. Liuliu... Liuliu seems to only have a fever, no other symptoms."
Yun Qiao didn't trust Cui Xuezhi's reliability, so he looked at Yang Liu. Yang Liu said, "Liu Liu has a stuffy nose. There's a yellowish, slightly greenish tinge in his nose."
Yun Qiao nodded to show that he understood.
After a while, Liuliu took the temperature. Yun Qiao took the thermometer from Yang Liu, took a look, and found that the fever was not particularly high, just over 38 degrees, less than 38.5 degrees.
"It's okay, the temperature isn't particularly high." Yun Qiao said, "I don't have any medicine suitable for children. Let's massage her spine to reduce the fever first. Once the fever is gone, hold on until dawn. You can go to the military hospital to find a professional pediatrician and ask them to discuss specific medications for treatment."
"Okay." Yang Liu asked, "How do I do it?"
"Just take off her clothes and let her lie on the kang." Yun Qiao said, handing the thermometer to Cui Xuezhi: "Measure your own temperature too. If it's high, take medicine."
Cui Xuezhi felt dizzy from the fever and had no strength to speak. She nodded meekly, took the thermometer and tucked it under her arm.
Yun Qiao washed his hands, and Yang Liu took off Liu Liu's clothes and made her lie on the bed.
The baby, who was over two months old, couldn't turn over yet. He couldn't even support his body while lying on the bed and could only lift his head slightly. Fortunately, the child was well-behaved and didn't cry while lying on the bed, which saved Yun Qiao a lot of trouble.
Yun Qiao turned the child around so that her head was facing inward. He stood behind her, half-bent the index fingers of both hands, and placed the middle part of his index fingers against the child's coccyx. His thumbs and index fingers pinched and lifted the skin, twisting it at the same time. He moved his hands alternately along both sides of the spine to the Changqiang point about three to five centimeters above the anus, and then moved along the spine from bottom to top, twisting and pushing in a straight line, pinching and releasing at the same time, until he reached the protruding part of the bone at the back of the neck, which is the Dazhui point.
This counts as one spinal massage.
To achieve the effect of reducing fever, you need to pinch it about twenty to thirty times.
Yun Qiao pinched it again and again and could feel the temperature under his hand slowly dropping.
Cui Xuezhi had also taken the temperature by this time. She took it out, took a look at it, and handed it to Yun Qiao: "It's almost 39 degrees."
Yun Qiao took it, glanced at it, nodded, and asked her, "The fever is quite high. Do you have any Analgin at home? If so, take one pill. I'll go to the hospital with the child in the morning."
Cui Xuezhi nodded: "Sister Yang has it, I ate two slices during the day."
Yun Qiao asked, "When did you eat the last piece?"
Cui Xuezhi: "A little after eight o'clock, I went to bed after eating."
Yun Qiao looked up at the clock on the wall and said, "It's half past two now. It's been more than six hours since eight o'clock. I can have another slice."
"Okay, I understand." Cui Xuezhi said, "Thank you."
"You're welcome. My house calls aren't free." Yun Qiao smiled at her and said, "The consultation fee is 10 cents, the outpatient fee is 20 cents, and the massage fee is 50 cents, making a total of 80 cents per room. Do you want to pay now? Or should I send it to my house tomorrow?"
"I'll give it to you now." Cui Xuezhi said, opening the cabinet beside the bed, counting out eighty cents from it and handing it to Yun Qiao.
Yun Qiao took it and put it in his pocket. He turned around and reminded Yang Liu, "The child was born prematurely and has a weak immune system. If an adult gets sick again in the future, separate them from the child and reduce contact. Otherwise, if the adult gets sick, the child will also get sick and suffer."
"Okay, I understand." Yang Liu said, "Actually, I consciously held Liuliu in my arms and slept in the west room today. I didn't let her share a bed with Xuezhi. Who knew she would still have a fever at night?"
"It's still because of premature birth. Her resistance is too weak. You should pay more attention in the future and separate her as soon as you find any signs." Yun Qiao said, "Okay, you guys can rest. Let's go back to the hospital. Don't forget to go to the hospital when the sun rises."
