Chapter 107 Surgery



It can be said that humans are the most adaptable animals to the environment. In less than three days, Tian Cai adapted to collective life. He could no longer hear the deafening snoring or smell the fragrant smell of feet.

Dr. Hong’s lectures were just right for other members, but they were a bit too simple for Tian Cai. She hesitated whether to bring up the problems she had encountered before and ask for advice.

I also feel that if I rashly go up and ask other questions that are not related to the course, wouldn’t it seem a bit frivolous?

One day, during class, a commotion was heard from a distance. The members looked out the window and saw five or six people running towards them carrying a door panel, shouting, "Doctor, help! Doctor, help!"

Liu Chuanbao suddenly jumped up from his seat, and because he stood up too quickly, he almost knocked over the stool. Tian Cai was closest to him and reached out to support him.

One of the production team members who were lifting the door panel had seen the commotion at the school gate a few days ago and knew that a county doctor was giving lectures at the school during this period, but he didn't know the doctor's name. Anyway, it was always right to call him doctor.

The patient was carried in, and Dr. Hong and Liu Chuanbao immediately surrounded him. The team members were originally sitting in their seats. The first few rows were close enough to see what was happening, but the ones behind could not see clearly. So after the third row stood up, everyone behind stood up, and some even stood on stools and tables to watch the fun.

Tian Cai's position was not very close to the front, so she only saw that the man's clothes were tattered and the wooden board he was carrying was dark red.

Doctor Hong asked them to place the door panel on the wire bed and asked, "How did you get hurt?"

"He lost his balance while laying thatch on the roof and fell down, hitting a wooden block..."

Doctor Hong listened to the man's body with a stethoscope and took his pulse while he was lying on his back. After checking the wound, he did not rush to treat it because the more serious problem for this man was not the wound on his leg. "There is blood accumulation in the abdomen!"

Everyone looked at the patient's stomach, which had only some scratches and not even a bleeding wound.

Doctor Hong pressed the patient's stomach, then bent his fingers and tapped them. After hearing the sound, he motioned Liu Chuanbao to come over and listen.

How could Liu Chuanbao understand? He was just a novice. He had seen patients like this before when he was studying at the health center, but the health center could perform surgery, but he couldn't do anything. "Shouldn't we stop the bleeding first?"

"Yes," Doctor Hong nodded and signaled Liu Chuanbao to let everyone go first, "We need to find the bleeding site first."

"good."

Liu Chuanbao and Tian Cai were left behind to help Doctor Hong. The others left the classroom. A few male students were unwilling to give up and secretly ran to the front of the classroom, leaning against the window to look inside.

Originally, Tian Cai was not among the people left behind, but Liu Chuanbao still felt unsure. He felt that Tian Cai's medical skills were better than his, but of course he would never admit it.

As soon as Doctor Hong made a small cut, blood began to flow out, mixed with some minced meat.

He picked up a piece with tweezers and took a look. The spleen was injured, and judging by the location and size of the piece of meat, it was probably impossible to save it.

Because the ruptured spleen was severely damaged, it needed to be removed through a complete resection. Tian Cai watched the entire operation from the side and helped pass gauze, scissors and other things.

I admire Dr. Hong even more.

After the operation was completed and the wounds were bandaged, he had time to deal with the wounds on his legs and head. After everything was treated, he was carried away. However, he could not be carried home directly. He needed to be observed in the clinic for a few days to make sure there were no postoperative complications before he could go home to recuperate.

It was only after the person was carried away that Doctor Hong noticed that the person who had been helping him was not Liu Chuanbao but a strange girl.

He rolled down his sleeves and asked, "What's your name? Which brigade are you from?"

"My name is Tian Cai, from the Beishan Brigade."

Liu Chuanbao, who had been helping to clean up the blood-stained gauze, smiled and introduced Doctor Hong, "Our Doctor Xiaotian is a licensed rural doctor, a very respectable one!"

"Oh?" Doctor Hong raised his eyebrows. Judging from her performance just now, this girl should be stronger than Liu Chuanbao, so he decided to test her.

"Then let me test you. How do you treat a child with a fever?"

Tian Cai was also very knowledgeable. "To rule out inflammation caused by trauma, you can first observe the child's body temperature. If the temperature is below 38.5℃, you can wipe the body, apply a cold towel to the forehead, etc. If it is above, you can take oral antipyretics..."

The several conditions Tian Cai listed contained more than just those in the medical manual. Combined with the treatments she had heard and seen at her grandfather's clinic, as well as her experience over the past year, Dr. Hong's eyes lit up with satisfaction. "Not bad, not bad!"

“How to deal with postpartum bleeding?”

"What about pediatric convulsions?"

After asking all the questions he could think of, Doctor Hong couldn't help but touch his chin and said, "Based on your level, you don't need to participate in this training, right?"

"Uh," Tian Cai was a little stunned, "Are these the only types we can talk about?"

Doctor Hong nodded and said that only the contents in the doctor's manual could be taught. In addition to the diagnosis and treatment of common diseases, women's diseases and childbirth knowledge, common pediatric diseases, and the introduction and prevention and treatment methods of various infectious diseases were all within the scope of teaching.

I can expand on other related topics, but I can’t go into more profound ones.

Tian Cai looked around and saw that it was already noon. The students were all outside cooking and eating. Even Liu Chuanbao, who had been there just a moment ago, was nowhere to be found. She quietly took a small step forward and asked in a low voice, "Doctor Hong, can I ask you about a problem I'm having with acupuncture?"

Hong Siqing was genuinely stunned this time. "You study Chinese medicine?"

Tian Cai nodded. "I've been studying Chinese medicine with my mother for over five years. It's considered a family tradition. After she passed away last year, I've been able to learn by myself while practicing medicine. So, I don't know who to turn to for help when I encounter problems."

"Then why do you think I'm a Chinese medicine doctor?" Hong Siqing never denied that he was a Chinese medicine doctor, although he could perform surgery and give injections.

However, Traditional Chinese Medicine has been a sensitive topic recently, and he didn't know if Tian Cai was testing him, so he asked this question.

"When I went to the health center to get medical supplies, I saw you giving acupuncture to an elderly man with heart disease."

As soon as Tian Cai mentioned it, Hong Siqing knew that she had really seen it, because he only had one old heart disease patient who received acupuncture regularly.

Thinking of the old lady, Hong Siqing couldn't help but sigh. The old dean wouldn't let him go back, so what should he do about the old lady's illness?

He looked at the little girl's sparkling eyes and blurted out the question that had been bothering him for a long time, "What do you think of Chinese medicine and Western medicine?"
