Chapter 1226 No sense of accomplishment
Before, when Yu Zhiming examined other people’s bodies, he was looking for problems, but this time when he examined the third grandfather of the Gu family, he wanted to determine his overall physical condition.
This is the first time for Yu Zhiming.
He also knows the barrel theory.
The amount of water a wooden barrel can hold does not depend on the highest piece of wood on the barrel wall, but rather on the shortest piece of wood on the barrel wall.
It seems that by finding out the worst part of the body and the weakest organ, one can roughly infer a person's future health status and even his lifespan.
But the human body is an extremely complex system, and any single issue can affect the entire body. Compensatory effects and complex interdependencies often mean that the area that ultimately experiences a fatal problem isn't the one that initially failed.
Yu Zhiming has seen too many cases like this.
In order to draw a conclusion that was as objective as possible, Yu Zhiming gave Grandpa Gu San a thorough and detailed examination from head to toe.
This inspection took a full forty-seven minutes, breaking Yu Zhiming's previous record for a single inspection.
Yu Zhiming pondered for nearly twenty minutes, digesting and analyzing the results of the examination.
"Third Grandpa..."
Yu Zhiming looked up at the patiently waiting Third Grandpa Gu and said slowly, "Overall, you are in very good physical condition. Although you are seventy-four, you have the average physical fitness of a sixty-five-year-old."
The Third Grandfather of the Gu Family showed a delighted expression and said, "You mean, this body of mine can last at least nine years?"
Yu Zhiming quickly shook his head and said, "Third Grandpa, you can't understand it that way. There are many people who died in their prime."
He then added, "Specifically, your cardiovascular system is in excellent condition thanks to proper maintenance."
"Lung function and gastrointestinal function are also good."
"Among the major organs, my liver and kidneys are in slightly worse condition due to over-maintenance and alcohol consumption..."
Yu Zhiming gave a vague comment on the Third Grandfather Gu's internal organs, and then said, "Maintain your current lifestyle and rule out accidents, infections, and other special circumstances. Within three to five years, there is a high probability that there will be no major health problems."
The Third Grandfather of the Gu Family asked again, "What about three to five years from now?"
Yu Zhiming said: "Third Grandpa, I can only answer this question after I check it again."
The Third Grandfather of the Gu Family smiled and asked, "Zhiming, in order to live a longer and better life, what should I pay attention to in the next three to five years?"
this……
Yu Zhiming thought for a moment and said, "If you want to last longer, all you need to do is eat healthily, have a regular schedule, exercise properly, and persevere."
"In this regard, Third Uncle can consult nutrition experts and traditional Chinese medicine practitioners. They can give more professional and specific suggestions."
The third grandfather of the Gu family nodded slightly.
Yu Zhiming continued, "As for living a better life, Third Grandpa, your left knee joint is severely worn out. I estimate you'll feel noticeable pain in two or three years."
"It is recommended that you use a single crutch with your left hand to relieve the pressure on your left knee joint."
"besides……"
Yu Zhiming asked again: "Third Uncle, do you often get massages?"
The third grandfather of the Gu family nodded and said, "I have an old problem from working at a desk. My neck and back feel stiff and uncomfortable, and my waist and legs are sore. A massage makes me feel much better."
"I hired experienced technicians. Is there something wrong with that?"
Yu Zhiming said: "The vertebral bone hyperplasia is quite serious. The friction caused by vigorous massage will stimulate the hyperplasia. If it continues for another six months or a year, I estimate that the pain will become numb."
The third grandfather of the Gu family let out a soft "oh".
Seeing that his third grandfather was still looking at him expectantly, Yu Zhiming felt that this examination was a failure.
After such a long examination, no major problems were found, which resulted in his words being less shocking and lacking in power.
But come to think of it.
The third grandfather of the Gu family has no shortage of medical resources. With daily maintenance and self-discipline, it is normal for him to be in good health.
Yu Zhiming chuckled and said, "Third Grandpa, you've taken good care of your body. Just keep doing it."
He lamented again, "Although my physical examination this time took a lot of time, I didn't feel any sense of accomplishment."
Grandpa Gu San laughed and said, "If you feel a sense of accomplishment, I will cry."
After a pause, he chuckled again and said, "Zhiming, if you want a sense of accomplishment, I can recommend someone to you."
Yu Zhiming blinked his eyes. This was a job for him. He didn't know whether he should accept it or not.
The third grandfather of the Gu family exhaled lightly and introduced, "He is a friend of mine, he is seventy years old this year. He always says that I live too carefully, which makes me tired and uncomfortable."
"He lived a pretty rough life."
"Let me put it this way..."
The third grandfather of the Gu family said in a complicated tone: "This guy eats, drinks, gambles, and smokes. Except for gambling, he has everything else."
"He's often drunk, never puts down his cigarettes or cigars, and is constantly surrounded by women. He's currently dating a young model who's in her early twenties."
After a pause, he added indignantly, "You're surprised! Such a rotten guy is in such good health, even more energetic than me. As far as I can remember, he's only been to the hospital a few times for stomach upset and appendicitis, but he's never had any serious illness."
"When we were together, this guy often laughed at us, saying that even though he lived an unhealthy life, he would definitely live longer than any of us."
Yu Zhiming said, "Well, Third Grandpa, a very important factor in this disease and longevity is determined by genes."
That was the only explanation he could give.
There are indeed some people who drink big bowls of wine and eat big mouthfuls of meat, smoke all the time, and have women all the time, and yet they still live to old age.
Some health experts die when they reach their fifties or sixties.
Of course, this is only a minority of cases.
Statistical analysis data obtained from big data shows that people with a healthy lifestyle live longer.
The third grandfather of the Gu family asked, "Zhiming, how about I pull this guy over here and you give him a physical examination?"
Yu Zhiming's interest was successfully aroused, and he said with a smile, "Okay, I'll examine his body. It would be great if I could find out the reason why he lives so recklessly."
The Third Grandfather of the Gu Family suddenly said, "Zhiming, if you haven't found any problems, can you scare him a little?"
Yu Zhiming was stunned for a moment, then he heard the third grandfather of the Gu family say again: "Forget it, let's not scare him."
"After all, he's seventy years old. If he gets hurt, it would be a sin."
Yu Zhiming breathed a sigh of relief, no longer having to persuade him.
It was already past 7:30 in the evening when we saw off the third grandfather of the Gu family.
Yu Zhiming learned from Shen Qi who was on duty that Dr. Adenauer's operation was successfully completed at 2:30 in the afternoon.
However, it will take more than a month to know the effectiveness of the surgery.
Dr. Adenauer is currently discussing surgical issues with a number of laryngeal specialists.
Yu Zhiming hadn't had a full lunch, and he was already starving from being so busy. He didn't have the energy to go to the seminar, so he just took the bus home...
In the last half day of April, please support me with double monthly tickets!
