I'm just a veterinarian! You've unlocked the Great Physician System!

Chapter 117 A Severe Situation! Birthday Turns into Death! Deadly Acute Epiglottitis! Veterinarian Zhang is Terrifying!!

"Forehead……"

The three of them looked hesitant.

"Gentlemen, I am an intern in the emergency department of Qingzhou First People's Hospital. If you have any doubts, you can search for 'Veterinarian Zhang' on Douyin. Dr. Zhang is very skilled at treating patients. He was the veterinarian who saved people from drowning in Yushan. He is known online as the CPR maniac."

He Xiaohong took a closer look at the fair-skinned, thin girl.

He could only say that his skills were indeed lacking.

There is absolutely no problem.

If she had just coughed and something was stuck in her throat, this girl should have had a series of reactions under normal circumstances.

For example, if you feel unwell or even can't eat, you have to have the foreign object removed.

This is a normal rejection reaction when a foreign object is introduced into the body.

But now there are basically no abnormal phenomena.

There is just a slight difficulty swallowing.

Burns to the esophagus and throat also exist.

I don't think it would endanger their lives.

However, in order to convince the other party.

He still listed some of General Manager Zhang's impressive achievements.

The battle of CPR at Yushan truly sealed the demon's fate.

I feel that at least most young people in Qingzhou know about it.

"Ah! You! You're the CPR maniac Zhang the veterinarian who saved seven people from drowning in Yushan!!"

Upon hearing this, the girl in the pink short-sleeved shirt suddenly looked completely bewildered, and her eyes lit up.

"It's you! I knew you looked familiar!!!"

The girl in the blue sundress also looked like she suddenly realized something.

After all, living in Qingzhou, surfing is a must for young people.

They had seen a news report earlier about a shipwreck in Yushan.

Several people died.

They were discussing this matter in their small group chat at the time.

They even praised the young man who saved the person, saying he was not only handsome but also had great stamina, and they never expected to run into him today.

No wonder I was so impressed when I first saw them.

There's a strange sense of familiarity about it.

"By the way, Mengqi, I heard that this veterinarian Zhang's initiative to examine people is a bad omen. You should hurry up and let him take your pulse!"

I was in a daze for a moment.

A look of panic appeared in the eyes of the girl in the pink short-sleeved shirt.

She didn't know if others had paid attention to this veterinarian Zhang, but she checked it out because it was trending.

Netizens commented that Dr. Zhang's proactive approach to patient care indicates either a near-death experience or a critical condition.

"Huh? A bad omen?"

The fair-skinned, slender girl named Mengqi looked completely bewildered.

To be honest, she had seen the news last time.

But I've only seen it; I don't know much more about the rest.

"This……"

A look of confusion appeared in the eyes of the woman wearing a long red dress and with wavy hair.

For this veterinarian.

Her understanding was limited to what she had seen in the news last time.

Is it a bit of an exaggeration to say that going to the doctor is a bad omen?
"Yes! The people that Veterinarian Zhang actively treats are basically already halfway to death!"

The girl in the pink short-sleeved shirt described it vividly.

He was very serious.

"Ah! Veterinarian, please take a look at that picture!"

The fair-skinned, thin girl named Mengqi was so frightened that she jumped up and immediately opened her mouth to give to Zhang Lingchuan.

It's so scary.

"Okay, close your eyes. It's not that serious. Just answer my questions truthfully. For example, do you have any difficulty swallowing right now?"

Zhang Lingchuan inquired.

"Yes, I had a little difficulty swallowing after coughing just now."

The fair-skinned, slender girl nodded.

He also touched his throat with his hand.

She really didn't expect that something like this would happen on her birthday.

Could my birthday have turned into a death anniversary?
But I feel great in every way.

"Anyway, you've almost finished eating. If possible, go directly to the ENT department of the hospital for an emergency check-up. Tell them your throat is a little uncomfortable and you need to have an electronic nasopharyngoscopy. Remember, never take any medicine on your own; you must follow the doctor's advice!"

Zhang Lingchuan then offered his suggestion.

System scan complete.

Patient Name: Wei Mengqi

[Patient's gender: Female.]

[Disease type: Acute epiglottitis caused by alternating hot and cold temperatures.]

[Patient Status: Current throat discomfort and difficulty swallowing, which may be life-threatening.]

[System notification: The patient experienced throat edema due to alternating between hot and cold foods while eating spicy bullfrog. While the current symptoms are mild, based on the prognosis, there is a high probability of suffocation and death. The current environment is not a hospital. Please take the patient to a hospital for treatment or recommend they go to a hospital!]

These are the symptoms that were just detected in his scan.

He initially thought the other person had choked on something while eating.

He was puzzled at the time, wondering why the red tag on the other person's head hadn't disappeared even though the other person didn't seem to be stuck.

After this scan, he finally understood the reason.

It turned out to be acute epiglottitis.

Normally, if severe acute epiglottitis is not treated in time, a tracheotomy can be performed, and within ten minutes it is enough to cause suffocation.

But right now the other person only has mild symptoms.

It hasn't progressed to a serious stage yet, so it's not too late to go to the hospital.

If we wait until it gets serious and go to the hospital, that would be troublesome.

And the onset of this disease is also very rapid.

It could escalate to a serious stage in an hour or even a few hours, so he now understands why the system is labeled red.

"Okay, okay! Let's go! Mengqi, let's get to the hospital right away!!"

The two girls, wearing blue sundresses and pink short-sleeved shirts, quickly stood up.

Experience tells them that this is something that cannot be rushed.

that's it.

They paid the bill and left.

It's only a ten-minute walk from here to the First People's Hospital of the city.

"My God, is this Dr. Zhang really that terrifying?!"

Take the elevator down.

On the way to the hospital.

Wei Mengqi feels that she is in good condition right now.

So he took out his phone and started searching on Douyin.

[Zhang the Veterinarian's Daily Life]

[Likes: 30000111], [Friends: 0], [Following: 0], [Followers: 700101].

Open the homepage.

She saw that the other person had 700,000 followers.

In reality, this number of followers is not much on Douyin.

But the number of likes the other person received is terrifying.

Thirty million likes!!

I took a closer look.

There are indeed many videos of people treating patients.

Moreover, these are videos of people treating patients.

The number of likes and comments is ridiculously high.

"Mengqi, now you know why I called you out so quickly, right? This Zhang veterinarian is terrifying!!"

The girl in the blue sundress came over at that moment.

She had initially thought it was love, but who would have thought it was actually an illness?

"Qiqi, when you coughed just now, was something stuck in your throat? Dr. Zhang doesn't seem like someone who would take care of minor illnesses!"

The girl in the pink short-sleeved shirt, named Miaomiao, was also very curious at this moment.

Because it all started with a cough.

"No, if something were really stuck there, how could I not feel anything at all?"

Wei Mengqi answered.

Aside from a slight discomfort when swallowing saliva, she currently has no other symptoms.

"That's true. If something were stuck in your throat, you couldn't keep eating."

Miaomiao nodded, feeling it was reasonable.

"Don't think too much about it. We'll know the results when we get to the hospital." The girl with big, wavy hair, wearing a red dress, spoke slowly.

"Yes, yes, yes! We absolutely must go to the hospital! We must follow Veterinarian Zhang's orders!!"

The girl in the blue tank top was clearly a huge fan of Zhang Lingchuan!
"This...could my birthday have turned into my death anniversary?!"

As Wei Mengqi read the comments, she gasped in shock, her face turning even paler.

"Once Zhang the Veterinarian has his eye on you, the Black and White Impermanence are already locking your soul."

"Indeed, it all depends on how good the doctors at the hospital are. If they're not, then it's hopeless!!"

……

These are some highly-rated comments.

She can't figure it out no matter how hard she tries.

How could I have just coughed twice and had a sore throat, and suddenly I was seeing the Grim Reaper?!
"What the hell! Mengqi, this veterinarian isn't a god! Even gods make mistakes, let alone humans! We're just going to the hospital for a routine check-up, don't listen to these netizens' jeers!"

The girl with wavy hair and wearing a long red dress was speaking.

Since Mengqi is feeling well now, it's not necessarily a bad thing.

Misdiagnosis is also possible.

She wasn't a hater of traditional Chinese medicine, but she felt that the other party's way of conducting the consultation was too hasty.

And this moment.

Frog Hero.

"Mr. Zhang, it's you!!"

He Xiaohong gave a thumbs up.

He originally thought that Mr. Zhang was lusting after the young and thin girl, but he didn't expect that Mr. Zhang only had eyes for the disease.

"I thought they would at least argue back, but who would have thought they would just pay the bill and go to the hospital after saying that?"

Liang Jingjing was speechless, truly stunned.

"I originally thought they might not believe it and would ask Teacher Lingchuan for the reason, but they were just too decisive."

Liang Xiangxiang shrugged.

"The main reason is that General Manager Zhang made the news. He has a great reputation in Qingzhou and has never made a mistake. If he suddenly told me that I had a problem, I would definitely be so scared that I would go straight to the hospital."

He Xiaohong was speaking at that moment.

If Mr. Zhang had made a mistake once, perhaps he wouldn't be so panicked.

The most crucial thing is that he has never missed a shot so far, which is quite frightening!
And the other side.

Zhang Lingchuan did not participate in the discussion.

[Professional Reputation: LV3: 1840/2000 (Intern)]

They are looking at professional reputation.

We have now reached 1,840, and have completed another consultation.

I'm just 160 points away from upgrading.

If he were willing to spend a lot of money now, he could directly exchange two thousand points for two precise scans.

Find two more people with yellow tags.

You can basically advance directly to LV4.

But he doesn't plan to do that, since a precise scan costs 1,000 points.

If I can endure the loneliness, I can be promoted in just eight days by relying on the daily scanning provided by the system. After thinking it over, the latter is more worthwhile.

"Teacher Lingchuan, what illness do you suspect that girl has?"

Liang Xiangxiang looked on with curiosity, after all, as a medical worker, she really wanted to know.

"Yes, yes, Mr. Zhang! What illness is causing this urgent situation?"

The other party needs to go directly to the emergency department.

Generally speaking, people only go to the emergency room for very critical illnesses.

For conditions like a sore throat, you usually won't go to the emergency room.

"I suspect it might be acute epiglottitis, but I need to have it checked at the hospital to confirm."

Zhang Lingchuan gave a reply.

He can't really use X-rays or ultrasound to detect this, so he can only leave the rest to the hospital.

"Ah! Acute epiglottitis!!!"

In an instant, Liang Xiangxiang and He Xiaohong jumped up.

"Sis, what is acute epiglottitis?"

Seeing her sister and colleagues so excited, Liang Jingjing, who had no medical knowledge, was filled with curiosity.

"Well, it's a fatal acute condition."

Liang Xiangxiang then explained the science to her younger sister.

The epiglottis is part of the throat.

It can be compared to a lid.

This lid has an independent opening mechanism; it can be opened to allow for ventilation. When eating, the lid is placed on top to prevent food or water from entering the trachea.

It has a protective function.

If there is edema due to infection, it will cover the throat cavity.

Once this lid is on, our breathing becomes extremely difficult, eventually leading to death.

"In simple terms, it means that his throat was swollen, blocking his breathing and causing him to suffocate."

He Xiaohong also spoke.

When the epiglottis becomes inflamed, it will cause swelling of varying degrees, and in severe cases it may even swell into a spherical shape.

This would cover the 'throat'.

The patient will feel as if they are being choked and cannot breathe. If this is not treated in time, it will be life-threatening if the airway is completely blocked.

Acute epiglottitis progresses very rapidly, ranging from severe throat pain to suffocation within minutes to hours.

If suffocation lasts for more than 6 minutes and airway problems are not addressed in time, there is often no chance of recovery.

If it really is acute epiglottitis, Mr. Zhang's advice is very professional.

It requires emergency treatment; never self-medicate at home.

"So that's it..."

After hearing her sister's and her sister's colleague's explanation, Liang Jingjing nodded, somewhat understanding.

She didn't understand the professional explanation, but she knew that once you get acute epiglottitis, your throat will swell up like a ball and block your airway, suffocating you to death.

"So when you eat hot pot or dry pot frog like this, don't be in such a hurry, and don't eat it hot and cold at the same time."

Liang Xiangxiang said to her younger sister.

Take a bite of something hot, then a bite of something cold.

My mind felt good, but my stomach felt bad and even my throat protested.

"Sis! I've suddenly realized how amazing Traditional Chinese Medicine is, and I'm thinking of switching to TCM at medical school!"

She wasn't usually this ravenous when it came to food, but at this moment, Liang Jingjing suddenly became interested in traditional Chinese medicine.

"There's no need for that. Traditional Chinese medicine isn't something you can learn so easily."

Zhang Lingchuan shook his head.

He's just using traditional Chinese medicine as a shield; don't actually fall into his trap and learn it.

“Indeed, traditional Chinese medicine emphasizes the lineage of teachers and students. Not only do you need to be perceptive, but the teacher who passes on the knowledge to you also needs to be very capable. By the way, Mr. Zhang, I’ve always wanted to ask you a question: are you really a self-taught practitioner of traditional Chinese medicine?”

He Xiaohong's eyes shone with a strong thirst for knowledge.

If someone could teach themselves Traditional Chinese Medicine, that would be truly amazing!

"Um... sort of, let's not talk about this."

Zhang Lingchuan felt that he would easily give himself away if he talked about traditional Chinese medicine.

As for why not continue using the mentor's father as a shield...

He could just give Lao Zhang and the others a perfunctory answer, but if he really asked people in the medical field about his mentor's father, Mr. Shen Xuanqin, how would he answer?

"I guess so? I get it!!"

Upon hearing this, He Xiaohong nodded meaningfully.

Sure enough, Mr. Zhang has a teacher.

"Teacher Lingchuan, can you really diagnose acute epiglottitis just by looking at the throat? What if the diagnosis is wrong?"

Liang Xiangxiang's words were not a question, but rather an attempt to understand the underlying principles.

"Yes, Mr. Zhang, what is the basis for your judgment?"

He Xiaohong was also very curious.

To draw such a conclusion just by looking at the throat is truly outrageous!
But Mr. Zhang has never made a mistake.

"Well, judging from the cough, difficulty swallowing, and alternating hot and cold sensations, I feel it might be acute epiglottitis, but a hospital evaluation is needed to confirm it."

Zhang Lingchuan replied.

It's his habit to never give an absolute answer.

"This……"

He Xiaohong and Liang Xiangxiang locked eyes.

His expression suggested he wanted to say something but couldn't.

And at this moment, in the hospital.

Wei Mengqi and her group have arrived.

"Hello, I have a sore throat. Please make an emergency appointment with an ENT specialist."

They went to the emergency room.

Otolaryngology clinic.

It was noon, but there were still people on duty.

"What's wrong that requires emergency room treatment?"

It was a thin male doctor in his thirties, slightly balding, who was asking about the patient's condition.

"Doctor, my friend choked on spicy bullfrog while eating. A veterinarian took a look and suggested coming to the ENT emergency room for an electronic ENT laryngoscopy. He explained that it was very dangerous and could be fatal, and that he couldn't take any medication at home. Could you please take a look?"

The girl in the red dress with big wavy hair was talking about some things Zhang Lingchuan had said at the Frog Hero store.

"A veterinarian? You take me to the emergency room after I choked on spicy bullfrog? You said it could be fatal? And I need an electronic ENT laryngoscope? This is ridiculous!!"

The bald male ENT doctor frowned.

Isn't it normal to choke on spicy food? And why did they come when the vet told them to go to the ENT emergency room?
Is it dangerous and potentially fatal? Should I have an electronic ENT endoscope?

Abstract!
People these days are becoming increasingly abstract!

And so he began the examination while expressing his feelings.
