Chapter 117 Work
After a fulfilling weekend, Gu Muran went back to work.
It would be better for her to return to her familiar job and feel comfortable.
Throughout the day, I met several funny and weird patients.
A mother and son, the son looks like he is in junior high school.
"Doctor, he said this morning that his ankle hurt a lot, so I brought him here to see if he's okay." My mother looked to be in her forties.
"Come, let me see. Does it hurt?" Gu Munuan stood up and looked at the little boy sitting on the stool. He looked a little painful, but more nervous. Gu Munuan squatted down and gently held his ankle.
"Yeah, it hurts." The little boy nodded repeatedly.
"Here?" Gu Muruan gently pressed the bone at her ankle.
"Yeah, it hurts here too."
"Have you bumped into anything or sprained your ankle recently?" Gu Muruan looked at the little boy.
"No, he was fine last night! He didn't do any strenuous exercise this weekend!" recalled the boy's mother.
Gu Muran asked the little boy to take off his shoes and socks, and took a look. There were indeed no bruises from any bumps.
"Do you like playing ball or kicking football?" Gu Muran ruled out the causes of the disease one by one.
"He is usually too lazy to move and doesn't even jump rope. The most strenuous exercise he has done is walking from the school gate to the classroom." The mother complained mercilessly.
The little boy didn't care at all that his mother exposed his shortcomings.
"Does your thigh hurt?"
The little boy finally shook his head.
"To rule out ligament strain and overwork, I suggest you take an X-ray. If there is no problem with the bones, it should be the growing pain caused by the body. If the X-ray is fine, give him a hot compress and see if it feels better." Gu Muran said to his mother.
The mother and son obediently went to take the film. However, the little boy looked a little hesitant, but finally followed his mother.
After Gu Muran went to the ward to change the medicine for the patient and do some tests, the mother and son returned with the freshly printed films.
Gu Muran ruled out a fracture and took out a hot compress and asked the little boy to apply it for 20 minutes.
20 minutes later, Gu Muruan asked him about the pain again, and the little boy still said it hurt.
Now, his mother began to panic: "Doctor, does this child have any internal injuries?"
"Don't worry, today is Monday. Did the school organize any exams or activities that your child is not interested in?" Gu Muruan suddenly changed the subject, leaving the mother stunned.
The little boy also grabbed Gu Muruan's sleeve and shook it.
Gu Muruan:...Okay, she understands.
Obviously, his mother also reacted: "Oh, I thought so, you are the only one whose ankle hurts. You have been lying at home for two days. There is a placement test at school today. Are you pretending to be sick?"
The little boy also panicked and grabbed Gu Muruan's arm tightly: "Mom, I was wrong! I won't dare to do it again next time."
Gu Munuan smiled at the little boy. She could tell that while the mother was angry, she didn't intend to hit or scold the child. The child was only slightly nervous and quickly admitted his fault. They must be a very stable mother and child.
Sure enough, Gu Muruan guessed right. The next second, the mother calmed down: "There won't be a next time. Don't joke about your body in the future. Mom will worry. Mom also knows that you studied hard for this exam this weekend. It doesn't matter if you don't do well on the test. We just need to work hard in the new semester. Got it?"
"Okay, I understand, Mom. I'm sorry." The little boy let go of Gu Muruan's sleeve.
"I'm sorry to have taken up your time, doctor. My child didn't perform well in the final exam last semester, but he was always in the top two in the class before that, so his classmates suspected that he cheated. This is the first exam of the new semester, and he must be under too much psychological pressure, so he pretended to be sick and didn't dare to go." The boy's mother explained.
"It's okay, as long as the child is fine." Gu Muran was very happy that the mother could understand her son.
"It doesn't matter what others say. Just do your best. We have a clear conscience. One mistake is no big deal. As long as you are good enough, those bad voices will disappear automatically in the future." Gu Muran turned and said to the little boy.
"Thank you, sister. I won't care about it in the future. I will work hard on my own." It can be seen that the little boy was taught very well, but children of this age are more or less naughty and sensitive, so this situation happened today.
The mother and son walked out of the clinic. Gu Munuan could still vaguely hear: "Although there are reasons for what happened, you did something wrong. As a punishment, you can't eat snacks this week."
"Mom, I won't do this again."
