Chapter 392: Every family has its own problems, the female reporter's apology
The disease can be cured by taking some medicine, but the doctor refuses to perform surgery on him, and he is unhappy about it. It's really laughable.
Zhou Can is now adept at dealing with all kinds of patients.
Grab the child's arm, turn it slightly to find the correct bone position, lift it up, and then put it back.
“Ah… it hurts, it hurts…”
The little boy screamed in pain and tears came out.
Zhou Can thought that his bone-setting skills were already quite good and would soon reach the mid-level level of a specialist. He was also capable of performing even the more difficult joint repositioning operations.
At this moment, he was a little surprised to see the little boy crying like this.
Is this little boy being too pretentious, or is the bone-setting process so painful?
I used hidden force when setting the bone just now, and I think I didn't use much force.
"Doctor, is my son's hand healed?"
The family members felt extremely distressed when they saw their child in such pain.
"Little boy, raise your right hand and grab this pen!"
Zhou Can tests the child's condition.
The little boy tried to raise his right hand, but a painful expression appeared on his face. However, he managed to raise his right hand a little and grabbed the pen.
"It shouldn't be a big problem. But his shoulder joint has just been reset, so he needs to recover for a while. I'll put a bandage on him and hang his arm around his neck. Come back for a checkup in a month."
Zhou Can saw that the little boy's right hand was able to be raised and hold objects. Based on his experience, he knew that the joint reduction had been successful.
I got a bandage for the child's arm to be in a sling, prescribed him some calcium tablets, and let him go home to rest.
As the little boy was crying and screaming in pain, Zhou Can was about to suggest to his mother to do a lumbar bone reset. But seeing this, he stopped talking.
The child's parents felt particularly distressed for their child when they left.
He didn't even say thank you to Zhou Can.
Zhou Can didn't care about this.
As time goes by, you will encounter all kinds of family members.
He was a little confused. The little boy's shoulder joint had clearly been reattached, so why was it still so painful?
As soon as this sick child left, a new patient came in, and Zhou Can had no time to think.
"Doctor, please take a look. Our child always complains of headaches and vomits easily after eating. Please help take a look." The child held by the family member was a boy about four years old.
The child was held by an adult and didn't like to move much, looking particularly thin.
Zhou Can immediately discovered that the child's head shape seemed to be a bit problematic, appearing unusually long and narrow. The back of the head of a normal child is round, but this child's head looks like an elongated peach.
"How long has this been going on?"
Zhou Can began to ask about the medical history.
At the same time, I also paid special attention to the situation of the child's parents.
The people who brought the child to see the doctor were the child's father, grandparents, but the child's mother was not there.
The clothes of this family were also quite poor, and they were obviously street stall goods, with old styles, and the materials of the clothes and shoes were very poor and looked old. Although the clothes were washed clean, the collars and cuffs were already white and frayed.
The knees, elbows and other parts are polished to a shiny finish.
This means it has been worn for at least several years to become worn out like this.
"When the child was about a year old, he seemed a little different from other children. He cried a lot, ate very little, and was as delicate as a little girl. And his head was getting longer and longer, as if there was an extra piece. Do you think it's because he sleeps on his side too much? This child has never liked to sleep lying down since he was a child."
The child's grandmother was describing the condition.
"Have you been taking care of this child?"
Zhou Can asked.
"Yes! The baby's mother ran away from home when he was six months old because of a quarrel with the baby's father! She never came back. I have never seen such a cruel mother."
After the child's grandmother finished speaking, she couldn't help but scold her daughter-in-law.
The child's father held his son in his arms without saying a word.
Every divorced family has irreconcilable conflicts of one kind or another, and the biggest cause of these conflicts is probably living together with the parents-in-law.
Conflicts between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law are natural.
In particular, some mothers-in-law are very strong-willed. When they see their daughters-in-law eating snacks or buying new clothes, they act as if they are digging up their ancestors' graves. What kind of spendthrift woman is this? She is greedy and keeps complaining.
When his son and daughter-in-law quarreled, he always stood on his son's side without asking questions.
Help your son deal with his daughter-in-law, because she is a person from another family!
Some mothers-in-law even have the bad habit of showing off their power to their daughters-in-law in order to establish their authority at home. They deliberately find faults with their daughters-in-law, scold them, and force them to admit their mistakes.
After this happened a few times, the daughter-in-law naturally no longer dared to go against her mother-in-law and became obedient to her.
In fact, this backward and ignorant idea was indeed feasible in ancient times or just after liberation, because at that time, daughters-in-law were needed to help with housework. Some lazy daughters-in-law had to be punished.
In ancient times, women had a low status and had nowhere to go after being divorced by their husbands. They could only endure it silently.
When the country was first liberated, it was considered a shame for women to get divorced. Even if their marriage was unhappy, they would not divorce easily but endure it silently.
In modern times, women have already enjoyed a high social status, and there are many female college students and even many female graduate students.
From state officials to corporate executives, women can be found everywhere.
In factories, supermarkets, and various businesses, women are even more popular than men. They can earn money and support themselves, and no longer have to rely on men.
In this case, their expectations for marriage are much higher.
If her mother-in-law, father-in-law, husband, or husband's sisters bully her, those with a bit of personality will run away from home or even get divorced.
Zhou Can is just a doctor and won't interfere in other people's family affairs.
However, from the silence of the child's father and the dominance of the child's grandmother, it can be seen that the child's mother's life in this family must not be very good. If it is not forced, which mother would easily abandon her young child and run away from home?
"The child's main symptoms are headaches and vomiting, right?"
"Yes! I used to vomit only occasionally, but now I vomit very easily whenever I eat."
The child's grandmother replied.
Zhou Can completed a physical examination on the child, briefly asked about some medical history, and then wrote out a checklist.
"We initially suspect that there may be something wrong with the child's skull, which is commonly known as craniosynostosis. You should take the child for a check-up first. In his case, he may need to be hospitalized for surgery, so you should be mentally prepared for this."
Craniosynostosis is a condition in which one or more cranial sutures close prematurely, causing abnormal brain development.
The incidence rate is low.
Some children do not need treatment, while others may need surgery.
The condition of this sick child is getting worse step by step. Without active treatment, his life may even be in danger.
"You need to be hospitalized for surgery? Don't scare us on purpose!"
The sick child's grandmother was skeptical about Zhou Can's words.
On the one hand, Zhou Can seemed too young. On the other hand, she must have heard a lot of bad news about the hospital and did not trust it.
Conflicts between doctors and patients and mutual distrust between doctors and patients are currently the biggest hidden dangers in the medical industry.
It has seriously affected the normal diagnosis and treatment work of doctors, and many patients dare not go to the hospital easily after they fall ill, fearing that they will be ripped off.
"Go get checked first! We'll see how things turn out then."
Zhou Can did not argue with the family members.
Experts can limit the number of numbers to thirty, or even twenty or ten per day.
He sees over a hundred outpatient visits a day and doesn't have much time to argue with family members.
After working in the outpatient clinic for so long, he summed up an experience: to guide patients to receive the most appropriate treatment in the shortest possible time.
Only in this way can we improve work efficiency.
The family members took the examination form and left. The sick child's father didn't say a word from beginning to end, like a robot.
Many people say that loving mothers often spoil their children.
In fact, strong mothers are more likely to raise children with personality problems.
A kind mother, as long as she does not spoil or indulge her child too much, can actually make her child have higher emotional intelligence, stronger IQ, and be more loving.
After the family members took the sick child away, the nurse outside pushed the door and walked in.
Zhou Yanqing closed the door and reported it to Zhou Can.
"Doctor Zhou, the parents of the boy with a dislocated right arm left the house and accused you of seeking fame and reputation, questioning your medical skills."
"It's okay. They have the mouths on their bodies. Let them scold me. Go ahead and call the next patient in."
After hearing this, Zhou Can must have felt a little uncomfortable.
But this was not the first time he had experienced such a heartbreaking thing, so he could treat it with a normal heart.
The consultation continued, and he gave different treatment plans to each patient after diagnosis.
Around noon, the female reporter Mu Ming actually took the child with leukemia.
The child's grandfather came with him, using a homemade crutches and wearing worn-out shoes. When his trouser legs were pulled up, you could vaguely see lumps of varying sizes on his calves.
This is varicose veins of the lower limbs.
This condition is very common in middle-aged and elderly people who do too much physical work.
It's generally not a big deal if not treated.
From this, we can also see that the child's grandparents usually lead a very hard life. They must have done a lot of hard work in the fields and mountains.
"Doctor Zhou, bring the child here!"
Mu Ming said to him with a smile.
"Okay, I'll arrange it."
Zhou Can didn't refuse at all . The little boy was about seven years old, thin, and tanned. His lips looked a little pale, and his nails were also pale.
He was wearing a thin layer of clothes with patches on the knees and other places.
The little boy looked at Zhou Can timidly, but his eyes were very clear.
Most children in the mountains are simple, innocent and brilliant.
Compared with children in cities, they mature mentally later.
The environment in the city is complex, and the ubiquitous human traffickers alone are enough to force the children in the city to have a certain level of social adaptability.
Silly children are too trusting and can be abducted easily.
"Grandpa, please take the child to sit and rest for a while. I will report this matter to the hospital leaders."
Zhou Can said to the old man.
The old man just smiled and nodded humbly. Perhaps his hearing was a little deaf and he couldn't hear what Zhou Can was saying at all.
Zhou Can called Tang Fei, the director of pediatrics.
This matter was reported to her yesterday and a rescue plan was discussed.
She talked to the hospital management leader, who nodded and supported the matter. However, he also put forward some requirements, first of all, the child's true identity and background must be verified, and then the child's condition must be examined to confirm that there is no problem before the child can be provided with public welfare assistance.
Another point is that the hospital cannot do the work for nothing and needs to do some publicity.
It is possible for individuals to do good deeds without leaving their names.
Hospitals are not charities, and leaders need to show their political achievements. Doing good things quietly will not work.
We must promote it vigorously so that Tuya Hospital can receive positive publicity and demonstrate positive energy.
"Director Tang, the child with aplastic anemia from the mountainous area has arrived. He is right here in the outpatient department. The reporters are also here."
"Well, okay, I'll come over right away with the hospital leaders."
After finishing the call, female reporter Mu Ming walked towards him with a smile on her face, and when she looked at him, there was a strange light in her eyes.
"Hey, are you really going to support Xie Miao's future life and studies until he reaches adulthood?"
Mu Ming asked.
"As long as he studies hard, I will continue to support him until he finishes college. The child's family is living in difficult conditions. As journalists, you have great influence and can contact the relevant local departments to apply for minimum living allowance for the child and his grandparents. With my support, I believe the child can at least have enough food, wear warm clothes, and go to school like normal children."
Zhou Can obviously thinks more deeply than she does.
All aspects have been taken care of.
It also makes the greatest possible use of social forces to provide assistance, rather than engaging in individual heroism.
In fact, with Zhou Can's financial resources, it wouldn't be a big deal for him to help ten children, let alone one.
But you must pay attention to the method when doing things.
It would be much better to get more people to join this charity cause than for Zhou Can to do it alone.
In particular, the participation of local relevant departments can always monitor the situation of children. Children without parents, in addition to being pitiful, will also have certain ideological problems. Without guardians to guide them from time to time, they are prone to extremes and go astray.
If it really develops to that point, it will be the most heartbreaking thing.
If it's just about treating a child's leukemia or losing some money, it's really nothing.
"I'm sorry, I misunderstood you yesterday!"
She sincerely apologized to Zhou Can.
"What did you misunderstand me about?"
Zhou Can was confused.
"Yesterday I thought you were the reincarnation of Zhou Paopi from ancient times, a miser who was unwilling to spend the money to save Xie Miao. Now I know that you think very deeply and considerately. I especially admire men like you who are calm and wise in doing things."
Her explanation made Zhou Can break out in a sweat.
"Stop, stop, I don't need your appreciation."
Zhou Can already has a girlfriend, and he doesn't want to create any sparks with this female reporter.
To be more precise, it was she who sparked love with Zhou Can.
If there is any sign of this happening, we must stop it immediately.
"Tsk! Look at you, I only said I admire you, I didn't say I'm in love with you. I know you must be married, don't worry, with my conditions, I can never be a mistress."
Mu Ming raised her head proudly, very dissatisfied with Zhou Can's performance.
"Your idea is great! Being a mistress is so degrading! You are so beautiful, talented and capable. The elite men who want to marry you will have to spend at least several thousand dollars, if not ten thousand."
Zhou Can gave her a thumbs up.
"Hmph, don't think I don't know what you're thinking. Besides, I won't be a mistress. I'll replace your wife and become her." Her words were too shocking and too fierce.
Zhou Can was so scared that he dared not to bother with the matter anymore.
