Merchant and doctor

Chapter 1894 The details of applying medicine are also a technique

Bian Mu began taking her pulse...

As I had expected, the 29-year-old migrant worker in front of me was somewhat simple-minded and inflexible. He didn't know how to adapt to situations and just kept his head down to work all day long. He lacked even the most basic sense of direction in life. Only when a certain path truly became impassable would he temporarily come up with a solution...

"It's amazing that someone like him managed to get married and have two children... It's incredible!" Bian Mu thought to himself.

After taking the pulse, Bian Mu examined the male patient's tongue coating.

"Please place both palms on the bed and lie on your side. I need to apply moxibustion to the 'tiger's mouth' acupoints on your hands. I brought some fresh ginger slices, which I'll place on your hands and press with a moxa cone. After lighting them, the ginger might dry out. For others, there might not be any special reaction, but you're different. If nothing unexpected happens, you'll feel very uncomfortable all over after a while. At that time, try to bear it and describe the specific symptoms to us. Otherwise, I won't be able to understand your past blood circulation history. Do you understand?" Bian Mu explained kindly for a long time.

Dean Dong and the others stood in a circle, observing without uttering a single unnecessary word. Some of the more observant colleagues were already secretly trying to figure out Bian Mu's treatment strategy...

The male patient nodded slightly and remained silent.

To save time, Bian Mu had prepared all the physiotherapy items, such as fresh ginger slices and moxibustion cones, in advance. He gently lit them and stood quietly by his side.

Dean Dong quickly arranged for a young male doctor to bring a chair over to Bian Mu. After Bian Mu sat down, Dean Dong and the others found their own chairs and sat down. There were more people than chairs, so those who weren't doing well in the hospital could only stand and wait obediently, including the male resident doctor.

……

"Ouch! What's biting me on the back?! Eh?! It's biting me again, help me get it off!" The male patient suddenly started struggling, but luckily the Rivanol gauze was securely fastened and didn't fall off the bed despite his commotion.

“We’ve been watching over you the whole time, how could we let a foreign object bite you! Don’t worry, that’s just your irritant skin sensation, it’s not very real. Please tell me, have you had any other unusual reactions?!” Bian Mu asked carefully as she walked up to the male patient, while gesturing to the head nurse and another nurse who looked more mature to stand behind the patient and provide some support, so that the wound wouldn’t reopen completely, which would really cause trouble for the hospital’s medical staff!
"The wound on my back is burning, like...it feels like...it's the same on my chest, it's really uncomfortable!" Fortunately, the male patient spoke fairly clearly and was able to explain where he was feeling unwell relatively well.

"And the sides?" Bian Mu asked with a smile.

"It's so bloated! It's so uncomfortable! Ouch! Why have I suddenly become so delicate?!... My hands are starting to shake a little. That thing you're making is about to fall onto the bed. It's going to catch fire!" Despite the intense discomfort, the male patient warned him in time.

"It'll be fine, I'll get it for you right away!" As she spoke, Bian Mu quickly removed the moxibustion cone with tweezers and threw it into a glass filled with water that had been prepared beforehand. A wisp of smoke rose, and the moxibustion cone went out immediately.

"It's alright now. Let me give you an acupuncture first, so your back won't always be damp and you won't be able to sleep soundly." As she spoke, Bian Mu removed two medium-length acupuncture needles and inserted one needle into each of the male patient's thumb and index finger acupoints.

Not long after, the male patient gradually became much quieter.

"Are you alright now? Have all those illusions disappeared?" Bian Mu asked with concern.

"much better."

“You’ve had your fill just now, take a rest.” After saying that, Bian Mu, together with Dean Dong and others, examined the patient’s back wound again. Huh?! All the oozing pus and blood had disappeared completely, and the Rivanol gauze had become somewhat mottled, with very obvious differences in color depth, as if it had been used for several days.

With the help of hemostatic forceps and tweezers, Bian Mu skillfully removed all the discarded Rivanol gauze strips and threw them into the medical waste bin.

"Dean Dong, I still need to change these medical gauze strips several more times. You really don't need to stay with me like this." Bian Mu said politely with a smile.

"Alright! I'm going upstairs to take care of some things, I'll come back later. Master Bian! Let me clarify again, just give us the treatment instructions directly. We'll do our best to follow what we understand, and we'll deepen our understanding through the process of implementation. Even if any trouble arises in the future, we'll all share the responsibility." After saying this, Dean Dong exchanged a few polite words and led the two doctors upstairs to attend to his business.

Bian Mu said nothing more and patiently used the Rivanol gauze strips repeatedly to drain the poison from the male patient's throat...

……

Finally finished.

Bian Mu was already sweating. After that, Bian Mu took the male patient's pulse again before he felt relieved.

"It's alright, it's a new drug we recently developed, but the specific usage method needs to be adjusted a bit." After explaining a few words to the on-duty resident doctors, Bian Mu asked them to gather around the treatment cart to observe how the medical gauze strips were made.

Soak half of the gauze strips in Rivanol and wring them out; soak the other half in iodine and wring them out. Apply the "drawing ointment" evenly, using iodine-soaked gauze as the base layer and another medical gauze strip as the outermost layer. Twist the two gauze strips together and then gradually fill the wound with the ointment...

"Even if the sutures come undone in a few places, it's okay. Just change them every 6 hours. Thank you all for your hard work. I'm finished here, and I'll come back for a check-up at this time tomorrow. Please rest assured, if anything goes wrong, I will definitely take full responsibility for what I should bear," Bian Mu explained with a smile.

"Look at you, if you're not in a hurry to leave, our Dean Dong would like to invite you!" One of the middle-aged female doctors stepped forward and said a few polite words.

According to past practice, Bian Mu should indeed have said a few words to the patient's attending physician. In addition, some procedures need to be signed. Since the hospital did not arrange the corresponding procedures, there must be a reason. The male resident who had just received him stood far away and did not come over to hand over the relevant business at all. Bian Mu knew that he was not having an easy time either, so he did not make a fuss.

……

director's office.

When Bian Mu entered, the so-called Deputy Director Yan, the Chief of Surgery, and the two Vice Presidents were already seated.

"Director Bian! Come! Let me introduce you. These are all key members of our hospital. I hope they will have the opportunity to learn from you in the future!" As he spoke, Dean Dong introduced his colleagues to Bian Mu one by one.

Bian Mu greeted his colleagues with a smile, but no one shook hands—it's a hospital, after all, and everyone understood this perfectly.
