Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!
Not long after Su Zhengnan started acupuncture.
The girl, who had been feeling unbearable pain, suddenly felt much better; the intense abdominal pain she had experienced earlier was relieved considerably.
"Thank you, Dr. Su!"
The girl looked up at Su Zhengnan and thanked him.
Su Zhengnan smiled and waved his hand, saying, "No need to thank me. Sit down and rest for a bit. The ambulance will be here soon."
As he spoke, Su Zhengnan turned to Sun Huaiwei beside him and said, "Dr. Sun, when the ambulance arrives, could you please remove the silver needles from her body? These silver needles are my own and I can't take them with me."
"Okay, I understand."
Sun Huaiwei nodded and noted down Su Zhengnan's words.
Then, Su Zhengnan turned around and went back to his traditional Chinese medicine clinic, where he sat down and continued drinking tea.
Anyway, no students were coming to the school clinic for treatment at the moment, so he was happy to have some peace and quiet.
Beep beep... Beep beep... Beep beep...
A dozen minutes later.
The ambulance arrived at the school clinic.
Immediately afterwards, several paramedics came in from outside, then carried the girl into an ambulance and sped away.
The 120 emergency medical personnel arrived quickly and left quickly as well.
Bang bang bang!!
Sun Huaiwei, holding several silver needles in her hand, stood at the door of the traditional Chinese medicine clinic, knocked on the door, and said, "Dr. Su, here are your silver needles back!"
As she spoke, Sun Huaiwei walked up to Su Zhengnan and placed the silver needles in her hand on the desk.
"Thanks!"
Su Zhengnan smiled and glanced at her.
Sun Huaiwei waved her hand knowingly and said, "Dr. Su, you're too kind. Actually, I should be thanking you. Otherwise, I wouldn't have been able to diagnose that female student's illness properly, and something bad would have definitely happened."
Upon hearing Sun Huaiwei thank him, a look of surprise flashed across Su Zhengnan's face.
This doesn't seem like her usual personality at all!
However, Su Zhengnan didn't think too much about it and said with a smile, "We are all colleagues, it is only right to help each other, Dr. Sun, you don't need to be so polite."
Upon hearing this, Sun Huaiwei nodded and said, "Then I'll leave the silver needles here. I'll go back and get busy."
"Okay!"
Su Zhengnan responded but didn't say anything more. He casually opened the stock trading software on his computer and glanced at it, only to find that the 20 million yuan worth of stocks he had bought earlier had already made more than 10 percent profit.
Earning 10% on 20 million is 2 million!
This means that Su Zhengnan's stock purchases have already yielded a paper profit of over two million.
"You only earned 2.64 million?"
Su Zhengnan glanced at it and then stopped paying attention. The unrealized profit was only 13.2%, which was still a long way from the 136-fold increase of Xijiang Copper!
Then, Su Zhengnan shut down the stock trading software on his computer.
Just then, a boy walked in from outside.
"Dr. Su, please take a look at my neck quickly. It feels numb and very uncomfortable."
The boy walked straight to Su Zhengnan, sat down, and pointed to his neck.
"Okay, let me take a look."
Su Zhengnan got up and walked over to the other person. He noticed a small red patch on the other person's neck with a bug about the size of a louse stuck to it.
Upon closer inspection, Su Zhengnan's expression changed slightly.
That's not a louse, it's a tick!
It's important to know that ticks contain infectious pathogens. Once stimulated, they will burrow into the body and release a large amount of tick saliva.
Therefore, if a person is bitten by a tick, they should never crush it directly. They must find a way to remove it correctly and then inject the appropriate antiviral medication.
Of course, the above are Western medical views on ticks, and this is generally true.
While some folk remedies can remove ticks, most of them rely on survivorship bias.
There have been real-world cases of people dying from tick bites.
Looking at the tick clinging motionless to the other person's neck, Su Zhengnan couldn't help but sigh and say, "It's a good thing you didn't scratch it yourself before you came, otherwise you would be lying in an ambulance by now."
"Huh? Is it that scary?"
The boy was clearly startled and asked incredulously, "Did I really get bitten by some kind of bug? What kind of bug is it?"
As he spoke, the boy reached out to scratch his neck, but Su Zhengnan quickly stopped him.
"If you don't want to die, you'd better not grab it with your hands. Let me take it for you!"
As he spoke, Su Zhengnan turned around and found some Vaseline, then used a cotton swab to apply it to the tick's head, which would suffocate it directly.
Don't assume that insects don't need to breathe!
Every living thing needs to breathe.
In no time at all.
The boy felt a slight burning sensation on his neck and asked Su Zhengnan, "Dr. Su, what kind of bug is this? Why does it feel a bit hot and painful?"
"It's nothing, just a tick."
Su Zhengnan replied calmly, then used tweezers to remove the tick that had already suffocated.
Afterwards, Su Zhengnan found some iodine to disinfect the wound and said, "Alright, the bug has been removed. If you experience any fever, headache, or other symptoms afterward, come to me immediately for treatment or go to the hospital."
"Huh? This can cause fever and headache?"
The boy seemed a little incredulous, craning his neck to look at the small insect held by the tweezers in Su Zhengnan's hand, and said, "It's just a tiny bug, isn't it? It bit me, so what? Dr. Su, can't you just prescribe some medicine to apply?"
"That's a tick, you know what a tick is? These things carry viruses!"
Su Zhengnan shook his head speechlessly and explained, "If the virus doesn't enter your body, you'll be fine. But if it does, you'll need to get antiviral medication. Alternatively, you can start taking traditional Chinese medicine now. I can prescribe some for you."
"No, no, this Chinese medicine is too hard to drink, I can't drink it."
The boy quickly waved his hand and refused, saying, "Then let me come back when I have something going on. Can I go back now?"
Su Zhengnan casually tossed the dead tick he was holding with tweezers into the trash can and said, "You can go back as long as you feel fine. Keep an eye on the wound on your neck these next few days, and come to the doctor immediately if you feel any discomfort."
"Okay, okay, I understand, thank you Dr. Su."
The boy nodded his thanks, then got up and left, clutching the bite mark on his neck.
