Chapter 124 Thirteen dips

Everyone became nervous when they heard the cry for help.

"What's wrong?" Gao Yuan quickly got up and walked out.

Others also hurried out.

Outside the door was a young couple stumbling over with their child in their arms. The two of them ran in a panic.

Li Shengli didn't even look at the child's situation, so he hurriedly greeted him at the door: "Come in, get out of the way."

The young couple hugged the child, ran in the door and knelt down with a plop.Gao Yuan saw that the woman was still wearing a cloth band on her head, and she knew she was still in confinement. He didn't care about the couple's situation, so he quickly reached out and took the child.

Li Shengli went up to help people.

Gao Yuan carried the child over, took a look, and gasped.

"What's the situation?" Zhao Huanzhang also ran over to see, and was surprised at the time.In the past, he was able to run, but now he can still stabilize it, which is already very good.

Gao Yuan opened it for a simple inspection, and said, "It's navel wind."

Zhao Huanzhang's face froze slightly.

Umbilical wind, called neonatal tetanus in Western medicine, is the disease with the highest neonatal mortality rate in this era.The incubation period of this disease is not long, and it is easy to develop within one week after birth.

Umbilical wind is very dangerous, and it is very easy to die, so it must be treated as soon as possible.One or two days before the onset, mental irritability, loose breastfeeding, frequent crying, and strained neck are signs of umbilical wind. At this time, timely rescue will have a relatively high chance of saving the baby.

In the attack stage, frequent convulsions, tight mouth and lips, inability to suck breast, stiff neck, opisthotonus, difficulty in crying.Due to the traction of the mouth, eyes and face, the face is in a wry smile, but the mind is generally still clear.At this stage, it becomes heavier, and rescue becomes difficult.

In the severe stage, there will be frequent convulsions, persistent high fever, shortness of breath, profuse sweating and death.Looking at this newborn again, his complexion was purple and black, his mouth was tightly shut, he was convulsing, his navel was black and blue, his breathing was short of breath, his mind was comatose, and he had already reached the critical stage.

Zhao Huanzhang said with a chill in his voice: "The umbilical wind is dying."

At this stage, it is almost impossible to save.If it were so easy to save, umbilical wind would not be called a newborn killer.

The child's father said nervously: "We went to the doctor in the clinic for treatment, but it has not been cured, and it is getting worse and worse. Our doctor asked me to come to Zhangzhuang to see Dr. Gao Yuan, saying that Dr. Gao Yuan might still have a solution. .Where... who is Dr. Gao Yuan?"

The mother of the child was about to kneel again, but Wen Hui hurried forward and grabbed the mother of the child.The child's mother was exhausted, limp and crying, begging: "Save my child, save him, he has just been born, and I am just such a child."

The people around couldn't bear to see it.

Hao Meiling felt very uncomfortable, but she had nothing to do, there was no car here and nothing else, otherwise she could have rushed to a big hospital for emergency treatment.

Zhao Huanzhang asked Gao Yuan: "Doctor Gao, is there any chance for this child to survive?"

Gao Yuan observed the child's situation, frowned and remained silent.

When everyone saw that Gao Yuan did not speak, their hearts sank.

Liu Sanquan sighed softly at the side: "This is a fatal disease."

When the child's mother heard this, she almost fainted on the spot, and Wen Hui hurriedly pulled her away again.

Hao Meiling sighed secretly, she looked at the newborn with a dark purple face, it was a pity for this newborn child, and a pity for the family that had longed for it.

Everyone looked gloomy, Doctor Gao Yuan is only a doctor after all, not a god, how can he always bring the dead back to life.

After Gao Yuan checked the child's condition, he said, "I don't know if I can save him, but I won't give up."

Upon hearing this, everyone looked at Gao Yuan in unison.

Gao Yuan let out a breath slowly, his temperament suddenly changed, the original easygoing disappeared, and the strong and decisive look appeared again.

Wen Hui and Hao Meiling stared blankly.

Gao Yuan turned his head to the crowd and said, "49 cicada sloughs, [-] qian for whole scorpions, [-] qian for silkworms, one dose of decoction, hurry up!"

"Yes!" Everyone imitated Li Shengli and shouted loudly, and the addiction was over!

This decisive voice startled both Hao Meiling and Wen Hui.At this moment, they felt that they were not in a clinic, but in a military camp. These people were tenacious soldiers who dared to fight.

The little fat man shrunk his head carefully, feeling that Gao Yuan was being too gentle to him.

And the parents of the child rekindled their hopes for Gao Yuan.

At this moment, Hao Meiling remembered how Gao Yuan was when he rescued her father before, and he was so resolute and majestic.

Wen Hui was also stunned, she remembered the day when Gao Yuan rushed to Zixiang to rescue her little niece in the rainy night, he was like this too, or in other words, he has always been like this, never backing down.

Gao Yuan carried the child to the bed, took off the child's clothes, and said, "Dengcao."

Wen Hui was right next to the table, and reached out to take the light grass just now.As soon as he turned around, he quickly turned back and took the matches.

Gao Yuan took the lamp grass, and said, "Matches."

Hao Meiling took a step forward and looked at the table, only to find that there were no more matches.

Wen Hui quickly lit the match and handed it over.

Gao Yuan glanced at her, without hesitation, he lit the oiled lamp grass.Then he held up the newborn's head, found the fontanel, and poked it.

The child's mother was already paralyzed in the arms of the child's father. Seeing Gao Yuan burning his child with a lamp, the two were so frightened that they covered their mouths with their hands.But when life and death were at stake, they didn't even dare to speak, but their legs were weak from fright.

The people around were also extremely nervous.

Gao Yuan's imposing manner was as calm as a mountain, and the lighted grass lightly smothered the newborn's fontanelle, and then sparks flew everywhere, and there was a slight popping sound of "pop".

The pupils of the child's father dilate.

Mother's hand covering her mouth was trembling.

Gao Yuan touched it lightly, and took it away, which was a dip.

Others watched the newborn closely.

Zhao Huanzhang walked to the front and stared at the child's condition.Then, he raised his head and asked Gao Yuan, "Is there no response?"

Gao Yuan was also looking at the child's situation, he said: "No rush, let's observe again."

"A lot." The child's mother called out in a trembling voice.

"Wow..." The newborn cried out, and the tightly closed mouth finally opened.

"My mother." Zhao Huanzhang was almost sweating.

Gao Yuan was also very excited, and said loudly: "One dip will take effect, continue. Help me to support the child."

"Yes." Zhao Huanzhang also yelled loudly, and after a while, he quickly put his hands on the child's head.

Gao Yuan stood in front of the child holding a lighted plant.

In the dark, there seems to be a figure from Jiuquan standing in front of Gao Yuan and the child, one for life and one for death.Without hesitation, Gao Yuan took the light plant and poked the nether world to decide his life or death.

Two dips, eyebrows, bang!
Three dips, among the people, pop!
Four dips, paste, pop!
Five dips, less business, bang!
Six dips, less business, bang!
Seven dips, navel, bang!
Then dip it six times in a row, around the navel, slap, slap, slap, slap...

The sparks splashed around the navel, and the slight popping sound continued.

Life and death are here.

After Thirteen dipped, Gao Yuan put away the lamp grass.Shen Shen exhaled and looked at the newborn again. Life and death are at this moment.

The newborn was crying loudly, her bluish-purple face turned rosy, and the frequency of convulsions also slowed down.

"Huh..." Gao Yuan let out a long breath, and the light grass between his fingers slipped gently.
