Chinese medicine: When you do things to the extreme

Chapter 41 The fastest daily task to complete! (Please collect and read)
That day, afternoon.

At 4:27, Zhou Yanqing continued to see the 25th patient with a little agitation in his heart.

The main reason is that Brother Zhong is too awesome, too casual, and too friendly, so the current task has become -

[Daily task progress…19/20]

Of course, Zhou Yanqing's expression remained the same. Looking at the cute little boy who was missing his thumb on his right hand, he said, "The diagnosis of your child is very clear. If you want to have your thumb reconstructed after a thumb amputation injury, I suggest you go to Xiangya Hospital or Xiangya Second Hospital to ask."

"To reconstruct the thumb, you may need to amputate the big toe and then transplant it. This operation is not easy."

The middle-aged woman felt very guilty when she heard this: "Doctor, my child was just naughty and put his hand in the washing machine and it got cut off."

"I happened to be out drying my quilt at the time, and when I came back, the severed finger had completely rotted away... I took the child to the county hospital, but they didn't suggest that we go to a better hospital, and they just performed some kind of stump amputation."

"Sister, the reason is not particularly important. We need to look ahead. For the child's surgery, I suggest you go to a higher-level hospital for consultation."

"If the other fingers are fine, the function of the thumb is extremely important. The superior hospital will give you a more appropriate treatment plan and alternatives."

"We have basically never performed this type of surgery in our hospital." After Zhou Yanqing finished speaking, he still looked at Li Zhong cautiously.

This patient's consultation has come to an end.

Hengda First Affiliated Hospital does very little in the field of thumb transplantation and reconstruction after loss, and it is not within the scope of our hospital's business, so we can only recommend transfer to a better tertiary hospital.

Li Zhong nodded: "Sister, if you are very willing to have your thumb reconstructed, you can only go to Xiangya Hospital in Shashi or the affiliated hospital of Sun Yat-sen University in Guangdong Province."

“We can’t do this surgery.”

"Just like when the county hospital saw that your severed finger was already damaged and dead, they did not recommend you to undergo finger replantation surgery."

After Zhou Yanqing temporarily handed over the right to make suggestions, he felt secretly happy when he saw the task was completed, but at the same time he felt pity for the little boy in front of him.

But soon, Zhou Yanqing suppressed his emotions and turned them into a sentence: "The child's guardian has a strong desire for limb reconstruction. After informing the child's guardian of the alternative treatment options in detail, it is recommended to transfer to another hospital for treatment!"

"Follow up if you feel unwell."

The First Affiliated Hospital of Hengda University cannot write about transferring to a higher-level hospital for treatment.

The First Affiliated Hospital of Hengda University is a Grade 3 hospital, and the doctors in Grade 3 hospitals are deprived of this magical skill from the superior hospitals.

“日常任务完成，手外科理论经验值+1！手外科理论由（专精1/5）提升至手外科（专精2/5）……”

This should be enough now, right? Zhou Yanqing asked himself.

He handed the printed electronic medical record to the middle-aged woman and said, "This is the outpatient medical record. You can take it with you to a better hospital for outpatient treatment."

"Doctor, if we go to Xiangya Hospital, do you have any professors to recommend?" The middle-aged woman did not embarrass Zhou Yanqing and Li Zhong, but asked.

This put the two of them in a difficult position.

Zhou Yanqing had never been to Xiangya Hospital, let alone knew any professors. Li Zhong was a master's degree student at the First Affiliated Hospital of Sun Yat-sen University, and was not particularly familiar with the professors at Xiangya Hospital.

But Li Zhong was a former doctor at our hospital and had attended the Hunan Province Orthopedic Annual Meeting. "You can make an appointment with a professor of hand surgery or trauma surgery. If you make a mistake, the professors there will recommend you."

"It seems that Professor Tan is quite good...but I just heard about him."

Li Zhong's expression was vague and he did not recommend the First Affiliated Hospital of Sun Yat-sen University.

"Okay, thank you." The middle-aged woman led the child away. The child avoided the white coat as if he had been pardoned. He was only six years old and looked excited: "Mom, mom, can I take a day off tomorrow?"

"I'll study tomorrow and take leave in the last week of this month." The middle-aged woman leaned aside.

Hearing this, Zhou Yanqing and Li Zhong couldn't help but smile. What an innocent age they were at, carefree and all they wanted was to have a holiday.

"But... I write with my left hand, and many of my classmates will laugh at me, Mom..." The child looked up, explained, jumped, and the shoes on his feet made a squeaking sound.

Zhou Yanqing noticed that the smile on Li Zhong's face stiffened for a moment, and Zhou Yanqing felt that his own smile also stiffened a little.

But in the end, Zhou Yanqing couldn't utter a single word, and there was no way he could call the little boy back.

If your level is limited and your ability is average, don't even think about becoming a 'hero' or a 'super doctor'.

It is a fact that the First Affiliated Hospital of Hengda University cannot even perform such thumb reconstruction surgery.

"Brother Zhong, will you treat the next patient or should I continue to treat him?" Zhou Yanqing asked with a smile.

It’s not that Zhou Yanqing is lazy, but Li Zhong actually also needs outpatient case volume.

"You continue... Alas." Li Zhong was still looking at the little boy and his mother's backs, unable to let go in a short time.

When a doctor feels useless, it will faintly reveal the loneliness deep in his heart.

I wonder if I could have been braver and tried harder back then, and went to a better unit and had a higher starting point, would the result have been different?
Zhou Yanqing quickly calmed himself down and called in the next patient.

This time it was another simple case of tennis elbow, which was very easy to treat, and Zhou Yanqing liked it very much...

It's good to keep it simple. For simple patients, you can send them away with just a few words, and the symptoms can be relieved by prescribing some medicine. You can be a little more conceited and feel that you are very awesome.

Unlike some types of illness, which only make you feel insignificant and make your mood heavy, without any sense of relaxation and comfort.

……

"Yanqing, what are you going to eat later?" At 5:40, Li Zhong turned off the computer and asked Zhou Yanqing who was packing up the registration forms and medical order QR code forms.

While sorting the stacks, Zhou Yanqing looked up and said, "Brother Zhong, don't you like barbecue? Let's go get some skewers."

"I still think it's too boring to have barbecue for dinner. Let's go eat some stir-fried dishes. It would be okay to have a barbecue for supper." Li Zhonggang made the suggestion.

Zhou Yanqing's phone rang. He quickly reached into the side pocket of his white coat with his left hand and whispered to Li Zhong, "Brother Zhong, my master."

He quickly chose to answer the call: "Master. I am in the outpatient clinic now."

"Then don't stay in the clinic for now, come to the practice room right away. Professor Tan from the Hand Surgery Department of Xiangya Hospital came to Heng City for a meeting. After the meeting, he decided to come to our hospital's practice room on a whim."

"Director Dong and Duan Qilin both recommended you and asked you to come over immediately." Gong Yi's voice was urgent and did not allow for any doubt or opposition.

He also didn't ask Zhou Yanqing whether he had eaten or whether it was convenient.

If you don’t have food to eat, then don’t eat. If there is inconvenience, create convenience.

Zhou Yanqing's heart skipped a beat when he heard this. His first reaction was that something was wrong with Xiao Jianli. How could she know everything...
