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

Chapter 349 The child coughing up blood sent chills down the spines of medical staff; the truth was...

"You parents have absolutely no respect for your children and no awareness whatsoever. Tell me, if there's nothing wrong with the child, how could they keep complaining of feeling unwell or even coughing for so long?"

Wei Zixi said irritably.

do not know why.

Zhang Lingchuan saw Director Wei look at his son with a puzzled expression after hearing this.

He even looked a little shocked.

Yes.

Old Wei's inner monologue at that moment was: You little brat, you're targeting me!

"Oh dear...we didn't expect it to be this serious! Doctor, what's wrong with our child? He's suddenly coughing up blood!!"

It's not that skinny men don't love their children; it's just that they're used to their own children being naughty.

She had even said before that she didn't want to go to school.

He thought this kid was going to make a name for himself and was deliberately doing all sorts of weird things to pretend to be sick and skip school.

He was terrified when he coughed up blood.

It turns out the child wasn't faking illness.

They rushed him to the best hospital in the county, the People's Hospital.

"Based on what you said, the child's behavior, and after a brief auscultation, I think it sounds like a foreign body in the bronchus. But you are very lucky, parent. This real diagnostic expert has arrived and should be able to tell you what it is."

Wei Zixi expressed his opinion.

At the same time, they also frantically showcased Zhang Lingchuan.

"..."

Song Wanqing stood to the side, seemingly wanting to say something but then stopping herself.

I have a feeling that Dr. Wei really idolizes Teacher Zhang a little too much.

Fortunately, he's not gay.

Otherwise, I feel this one is much more difficult to deal with than that young lady surnamed Li.

"A diagnostic master??"

The child's parents were stunned.

Looking around the entire consultation room with a puzzled expression, I saw the youngest face there.

"Yes, parent, you can see we look a bit alike, right? This is my dad, the director of the emergency department at the county hospital. I'm a doctor in the emergency department at West China Hospital. I came back to inspect the situation and help out with some cases. Your case is the first one I saw. And this person is a direct disciple of one of our country's top traditional Chinese medicine masters, gynecologists, and emergency department experts! He has millions of followers online!"

Wei Zixi speaks very fast!
He launched into a rapid-fire introduction of Zhang Lingchuan.

"???"

I thought the previous parts were already exaggerated enough.

When Zhang Lingchuan heard Wei Zixi say those words, his eyes widened in astonishment.

Good guy.

This is never going to end.

He has given himself so many outrageous titles without his consent.

"Wow, that's amazing... Doctor, what's wrong with my son?!"

The gaunt man stared at Wei Zixi with wide eyes after hearing his words.

A feeling of admiration arose spontaneously.

There was even a sense of awe and respect.

It turns out that in this consultation room, the older the head doctor is actually the worst.

No wonder the other person sat in the chair, not daring to speak, just staring blankly, and even stood up when they saw the young man.

It turns out that one of them was his son, who worked at West China Hospital.

West China Hospital goes without saying.

It is a household name in the local area.

The other one has so many titles on his head.

She is a disciple of a national master of traditional Chinese medicine, and a disciple of a gynecologist and an emergency medicine expert.

He also has millions of fans online.

What does that even mean?

This must be the most skilled doctor I could ever see in my small town!
He immediately seized the opportunity to ask.

"Parent, don't listen to Dr. Wei's nonsense. Although I am good at diagnosis, I am not that great. Let me take a closer look at your child."

【特殊物品：特殊体力药水*18、精准检测7*、系统空间模拟训练一周时长卡*1、过敏道具卡*1、技能晋升书*2。】

[Routine scans: 2 remaining.]

These are Zhang Lingchuan's special items and scanned remnants for today.

Actually, this is a red label.

So the moment he came in, no matter what Dr. Wei said, he would eventually offer some opinions.

After all, this is a red label.

This means that without treatment, the patient will die within three years.

"Okay, okay, doctor, please take a look."

The skinny man immediately gave up his seat.

In an instant, the entire department fell silent.

[The host is detecting patients tagged with red; precise scanning is in progress.]

Yes.

Zhang Lingchuan used a precision scan on the young boy.

He got some regular treasure chests yesterday because of a system bug, and his current number of precise scans has reached seven.

He has this principle regarding red labels.

Unless precise scans become truly scarce.

When he has enough money, he is still willing to give priority to using precise scanning for red labels.

Half a minute passed quickly.

Zhang Lingchuan put down his hand that was taking the pulse.

"Zhang Shen, is it a foreign object in the bronchus? I'm a bit puzzled. If it really is a foreign object in the bronchus, why can the child keep the object stuck in the trachea for so long, and why is he vomiting blood? That's very strange."

If the foreign object had already entered the body and caused enough damage to make someone vomit blood, the child should have collapsed long ago.

After all, internal bleeding is no joke.

But he only showed signs of coughing and a sore throat, which doesn't make sense.

"There seems to be a foreign object, but we're not sure what it is yet. Can I use the stethoscope?"

The scan results are actually out.

However, his habit is to avoid being too abrupt, and even more so, to avoid getting himself into trouble while trying to save someone.

So he asked for a stethoscope.

"it is good!"

Wei Zixi handed the stethoscope directly to Zhang Lingchuan.

Then Zhang Lingchuan began to listen to the patient's heart and lungs.

"How is he, doctor? What exactly went down my son's throat?"

The gaunt man looked utterly perplexed.

Does he often have a habit of drinking unboiled water?

Zhang Lingchuan asked.

"Parasites? Tapeworms? Lung echinococcosis?"

After Zhang Lingchuan said that, Wei Zixi inexplicably recalled the previous example.

That is, Xia Yu, who was covered in insects.

First, the tapeworm broke the national record, allowing the president and medical team of Chang Gung Memorial Hospital to take a photo with it, and later even published a paper on it.

Then came the other person's pulmonary echinococcosis.

That's definitely a heavyweight contender.

After all, having more than a pound of echinococcosis in the lungs is a significant challenge, according to the director of Chang Gung Memorial Hospital.

It was indeed a heavyweight challenge, after all, Dean Dong was almost knocked unconscious by it.

But Wei Zixi only briefly considered this possibility, since even if it were a parasitic infection, it should be in the intestines, lungs, or similar places.

It's very rare for it to reach the bronchi.

He was just curious: if that were the case, what was the point of Zhang Shen asking such a question about drinking untreated water?

After all, drinking untreated water should be related to parasites or something similar.

Could there be another type of parasite that can live in the bronchi?
Wei Zixi's mind went blank for a moment.

But he was also patient enough to wait a little longer.

After all, it won't be long before Mr. Zhang reveals his speculation.

"Yes, doctor, you're right. This child often drinks cold water but doesn't like hot water!"

The gaunt man nodded in response.

have to say.

This doctor is really quite capable.

She even knows that her own child doesn't like to drink hot water.

"That's not tap water, is it?"

Zhang Lingchuan asked again.

"No, we live in the mountains, so we don't have running water like people in the city. We drink spring water."

The man's name is Qiang Jiaqi.

He spoke with a slight smile at that moment.

"But to be honest, the water in the city is really not as refreshing and delicious as our mountain spring water."

And he added a sentence.

After all, the water in the county town is filtered in various ways, and it even has a disinfectant smell.

"Parasite?"

Old Wei nudged his son's arm, asking with a hint of confusion in his expression.

Because it feels like the wind is increasingly veering off course, like a parasite.

But Lao Wei was still a bit confused at this moment.

It's even uncertain.

What kind of parasites can get into a child's bronchi?

It's more believable if it's in the brain than in the bronchi.

"Dad... what kind of parasites can get into the bronchi?"

Wei Zixi also asked his father a bunch of questions.

Of course, he was met with a glare from Lao Wei after asking this question.

Old Wei's eyes seemed to be saying something.

Damn it, I was going to ask you something, and now you're asking me?
on site.

The consultation continues.

"Yes, spring water is indeed sweet and delicious, but it's easy to get parasites or other things if you drink it directly."

If we had to compare tap water in the city with natural spring water, which tastes better?

Without a doubt, natural spring water tastes better.

However, drinking natural spring water directly can easily cause problems.

Especially parasites.

"Oh! Doctor, you mean my son has parasites in his stomach?"

Hear the words.

Qiang Jiaqi was stunned for a moment.

He finally understood what the doctor meant.

"Yes, I think the probability is quite high. I just listened with a stethoscope and even heard some unusual noises, as if the entire bronchus was blocked. I suggest you treat it as soon as possible, otherwise the child may die from suffocation."

Zhang Lingchuan stated his diagnosis.

"?"

"??"

Both father and son were dumbfounded.

If a parasite blocks the bronchus, it can cause death by suffocation if left untreated.

No?

What parasites?!

That sounds so outrageous!
"What! What should we do now! Doctor, please save my son?!"

Qiang Jiaqi didn't have many questions; all he could see was concern for his son.

After all, the word "death" is just too heavy.

"Director Wei, may we perform a bronchoscopy?"

Zhang Lingchuan then began to ask questions.

"Oh? A bronchoscope? Our hospital has already purchased one, but the medical team likely lacks experience with children."

Hospitals do offer bronchoscopy.

However, there is a lack of talent in this area.

Adding children to the mix makes it even more difficult.

“Zhang Shen, our medical conditions here are indeed a bit lacking. We only published our first case recently… If you know how, you can try to do it.”

On December 29, with the strong support and active preparation of the hospital leadership and the meticulous guidance of experts from the Provincial People's Hospital, the Meibu County People's Hospital successfully conducted the county's first electronic bronchoscopy examination.

After professional training and practice, the county hospital team has mastered the technique of bronchoscopy and is able to accurately conduct a comprehensive examination of the patient's bronchi.

Wei Zixi dug up the news from the previous two days.

Of course, if it were Mr. Zhang, then he could handle the operation for the other party.

My colleagues in the respiratory department should be very happy to welcome this.

"Um... I don't know how to do this, but it seems unlikely that this can be treated at the county hospital. How about this, parents, why don't you take your child for a CT scan first? This is to determine if there is a foreign object in the bronchus. If there is, then the county hospital will transfer you to a city hospital so that they can remove it. After all, the technical level of the county hospital is indeed limited."

Zhang Lingchuan made the arrangements.

At the same time, inform the other party of the reason for undergoing the CT scan.

Otherwise, many parents would think the hospital is trying to rip them off again.

But in many cases, this is a necessary check.

"I see... then I'll listen to what you say, doctor."

Qiang Jiaqi nodded.

Now he doesn't dare to offer any opinions.

After all, the two words "death" that the young doctor had just uttered had a huge impact on him.

"Actually, Dr. Zhang's suggestion to do a CT scan is also necessary. Here, you can take your child directly there now, and we'll cut in line at the emergency room."

Old Wei picked up the phone.

"I'll take you to the CT room."

Both father and son were very enthusiastic.

Because they were genuinely curious about what kind of parasite could be stuck in a child's throat for so long, and most importantly, cause the child to vomit blood.

CT scans were all green lights.

The photos were quickly displayed on the computer.

The only problem is that the hospital's machines always load slowly.

The father and son are currently scrolling through images.

"Fuck..."

The next moment, when the CT images came out, the father and son were both dumbfounded.

Because they saw a long, thin object in the inverted 'Y' shape of the child's bronchus.

"Doctor, is there really something in my son's throat?"

Seeing the expressions on the father and son's faces, Qiang Jiaqi asked them.

Under the coordination of this emergency department director, the examination was conducted at lightning speed.

"Yes, there is one, and it's a long, narrow object. It looks quite big, but I don't know what it is."

As Wei Zixi frowned, he asked the child's father to come over and look at the pictures.

And I circled the location with the mouse.

Normally, if there's something that big in the bronchus, the person should have suffocated long ago.

And having such a large object stuck in his throat, he only coughed for a little over a month... It's simply outrageous.

"Could the pen have fallen inside?"

Qiang Jiaqi's brow twitched.

It feels like this thing is as long as my little finger.

Could it be that the child ate a pen?

"That's impossible. If there really were a pen stuck in this place, let alone coughing for a month, it would be a miracle if he could even live for a month. And how could he eat or swallow with something like that? So logically and visually, it should be something soft and slippery to have such conditions."

Wei Zixi analyzed, "CT scans can't show this clearly."

We can only guess.

A bronchoscopy is needed to determine the exact cause, and it may even be necessary to remove the bronchus.

"That's true. It's uncomfortable enough to get a fishbone stuck in your throat, but what if a pen actually got in? Hey, doctor, where's that really skilled young doctor? Where is he right now? I think he mentioned some kind of parasite!"

Qiang Jiaqi asked curiously.

After all, this was the same doctor who had just mentioned that his son might have something in his throat, and now there really is something there, but he said it was a parasite, so he was curious about what kind of parasite could be so big.

"I went to the restroom, I should be back soon."

"Hey, speak of the devil and he appears."

As soon as Wei Zixi finished speaking, Zhang Lingchuan walked over.

"Doctor! My son's test results are in. Look, there really is a long, thin thing inside his body, but we don't know what it is."

Seeing Zhang Lingchuan approaching.

Qiang Jiaqi hurriedly greeted them.

"Let me see."

Zhang Lingchuan leaned closer to examine the image.

"Oh... then that must be what I was talking about, parasites."

He said it in the next instant.

"Parasite?"

"No way! Zhang Shen, what kind of parasite is this? It's huge! And it's like it's hanging here!"

The father and son were stunned!

They really didn't expect this.

It could indeed be a parasite, but what parasite is that big? It's too strange.

Especially since the other person seemed to be glued to that spot.

Qiang Jiaqi didn't say anything at this moment.

But the other person's gaze was the same as that of the two doctors.

I even found it quite interesting that the doctors were questioning each other.

"Leech."

Zhang Lingchuan said three words.

"?"

"??"

"???"

The three of them stood there, stunned.

"Leech!!"

The father and son exchanged a glance.
"Oh no! Doctor, you mean there's a leech in my child's throat?!"

Blasted!

Qiang Jiaqi was completely furious!

They don't even find it interesting for doctors to question each other.

After all, in some of the older generation's legends, leeches are described as quite terrifying.

There are even stories of leeches eating a person's brain.

However, leeches generally cannot get into the brain, since the human body has multiple layers of barriers, so the credibility of such stories is relatively low.

However, it is true that leeches entering the body can potentially lead to death.

"Based on my speculation, the possibility is quite high, and the child's symptoms also match. First of all, he may have drunk unboiled spring water, but there were leech larvae in the spring water. Out of survival instinct, the leech got stuck on the bronchus. So initially, because the leech was relatively small, the child did not react much, and just felt that there was something in his throat, right?"

Zhang Lingchuan paused slightly when he got to this point.

“Yes, he did say that in September, that there was something in his throat. We thought it was phlegm that he was coughing up. Later, he kept coughing until a month ago when he couldn’t stop coughing.”

Qiang Jiaqi's eyes lit up when he heard Zhang Lingchuan say that.

There is such a thing.

The doctor is absolutely right.

"Actually, how could this be phlegm? Children are naughty, and you may think it's not a big deal, but the discomfort he felt at that time was caused by this leech. The leech gradually grew from a juvenile form inside the child's body, sucking blood and growing to this size. After it grew larger, the child's foreign body sensation became more severe, which is why he kept coughing. As for why he coughed up blood, it was mostly because the leech attached itself and grew larger, causing the wound to bleed and be coughed up."

After Zhang Lingchuan finished speaking, the entire department fell silent like never before.

The father and son even exchanged a glance.

I feel like slapping my thigh.

Damn it! Yeah!!
Why didn't you think of leeches!

This thing can parasitize the human body.

Therefore, calling the other party a parasite is perfectly reasonable.

Moreover, the other party's deduction is quite reasonable.

"Then! Doctor! What should I do now? Should I take my child directly to the city hospital?"

Qiang Jiaqi also thought it was very reasonable.

My heart started to race.

Oh my goodness.

If there really was a leech hiding in the child's throat, how uncomfortable that would be.

It would be a lie to say he feels no remorse.

The child was genuinely feeling unwell, but the adults misunderstood and even thought he was faking it!
"It's best to send it to the city hospital. If the city hospital can't handle it, you can send it to the provincial hospital. Make sure to take it out when it reaches the fork in the road."

Zhang Lingchuan nodded.

System scan complete.

Patient Name: Qiang Xiaoliang.

[Patient's gender: Male.]

[Patient's age: 10 years old.]

[Patient's condition: Sensation of something stuck in the throat, persistent cough, and difficulty breathing.]

[Patient Diagnosis: Foreign body in the bronchus; if not removed, there is a high probability of death from suffocation within three years, hence the red label.]

[System notification: The child ingested unsterilized spring water, which contained parasitic leech larvae. These leeches are now lodged in the bronchi and have grown larger, showing a tendency to move towards the bronchial bifurcation. There is a high probability that the child may suffocate and die. Please recommend that the child and their family take them to a qualified hospital for treatment.]

[Activate the daily task; the child successfully removed the leech, and you will receive 1 Normal Treasure Chest.]

This is the message that appeared when he was scanning.

how to say.

Drinking unboiled spring water does indeed carry a risk of infection.

However, it is relatively rare for a parasite to remain in the bronchus for such a long time.

"Okay, okay, I'll take it to the city right away. Thank you, doctor!"

Qiang Jiaqi said excitedly.

"Okay, we'll issue you a transfer certificate. Go to the Municipal People's Hospital and see if they can help you. If they can't help you there either, then go to West China Second Hospital. By the way, do you want our ambulance to take you there? Of course, the cost will definitely be a bit high, around a thousand yuan."

Old Wei said.

In this situation, even the city hospital is in a precarious position.

After all, if it really is a live leech, it's not easy to take it out.

"deliver!"

Qiang Jiaqi said firmly!

After all, there were leeches in her son's body, and all she wanted to do was get him to the city hospital as quickly as possible.

It's fine if it's a thousand or so yuan.

However, Qiang Jiaqi was unaware that his journey to seek medical treatment today was destined to be fraught with anxiety.

Not long after arriving at the Meibu County People's Hospital, an ambulance set off.

There are no trains here either.

Fortunately, the highway had just opened, so the ambulance would be able to take them there, which would be about 100 kilometers away and take about two hours.

As for Zhang Lingchuan, he was naturally invited to a joint meeting room of the emergency department and the obstetrics and gynecology department.

"How do you learn external lateral decubitus rotation...? Why do you seem so skilled in basic first aid? I can't really answer that. I can only say, I'll demonstrate and you can try it yourself."

lecture.

He was completely unprepared to give any lectures.

All I can say is that they demonstrated an external inversion technique.

After a morning of demonstrations, Zhang Lingchuan finally understood a principle.

That is, there is a huge gap between learning something yourself and teaching others.

Therefore, there is a saying that understanding and teaching are actually two different things.

Name: Mao Qinqin.

[Category: Doctor]

【Skill:
External inversion: "Expert level: 8200/10000".

Cesarean section: "Expert level: 6102/10000".

Induced abortion, curettage, diagnostic curettage: "Expert level: 5107/10000".

Artificial placental removal: "Expert level: 5007/10000".

……

Intracervical water balloon induction of labor: "Expert level: 6101/10000".

……

Microscopic tubal anastomosis: "Professional grade: 2513/5000".

Hip traction: "Professional grade: 2090/5000".

Simple genital fistula repair: "Intermediate: 1612/2000".

Twin delivery complications: "Intermediate: 1212/2000".

Radical vulvar cancer surgery: "Primary: 560/1000".

Now he has one opportunity a day to check his medical skills.

He was quite curious and used his curiosity on Dean Mao, wanting to see how skilled doctors were in grassroots hospitals. It must be said that Dean Mao was indeed quite outstanding in the field of gynecology.

However, there is still a significant gap between him and the experts in big cities. He can only be described as a relatively hardworking type, especially in the area of ​​inversion techniques, where he is almost a master.

I estimate that there is hope in my lifetime.

He even discovered...

After learning from my demonstration, the other person actually improved their external inversion technique.

Name: Mao Qinqin.

[Category: Doctor]

[Skill: External Reversal: "Expert Level: 8281/10000"...]

This gave him a rather novel experience.

At this moment, Qiang Jiaqi, who had just arrived at the city hospital for a consultation, was struck dumb.

“We don’t have much experience in treating children. I suggest you take them to West China Second Hospital. And look at the position of your CT scan compared to ours, it’s definitely moving. We don’t know when it will stop. If it keeps moving forward, it’s still very dangerous. Hurry up. You can take an ambulance or the high-speed rail, but the high-speed rail will be faster. We can contact West China Second Hospital to have an ambulance waiting outside the station.”

After all, high-speed rail is the fastest mode of transportation.

It would take several hours to drive there.

"Ugh! I have to go to West China Hospital again!!"

Qiang Jiaqi's face scrunched up in a frown.

"Yes, West China Second Hospital will definitely be able to remove it. They are skilled in pediatric resuscitation and have a wealth of experience in this area."

"That's what the doctor at Liangshan Prefecture People's Hospital is saying."

You can take it.

But they didn't dare take the risk.

Moreover, if it is not completely removed or even damaged, their emergency response capabilities may not be up to par.

"Okay... Director, could you help us make some contact? We'll take the high-speed train."

Qiang Jiaqi heard what the doctor said.

What else can I do?
"Dad...I feel so bad, I can't breathe..."

Qiang Xiaoliang was feeling extremely unwell at that moment, and he was completely listless.

"Son, wait for us, we're about to take the high-speed train."

I bought the fastest high-speed train ticket and contacted West China Second Hospital at the same time.

Qiang Jiaqi and his son Qiang Xiaoliang sat on the high-speed train speeding towards Chengdu.

And on this bullet train, there was also a boy with a big belly.

The other person looked outside with great anticipation and curiosity.

"Mayor Ashan, my hospital visit this time must cost a lot of money, right?"

The boy was none other than Ayun from Ahara Village.

The other person is now considered an orphan.

The township government contacted the child's mother, but she said she now has a family and hopes not to be disturbed.

Moreover, she didn't have the energy or time to accompany Ayun to Rongcheng Hospital, as she had to work in Minzhou with her new husband.

The conversation turned to legal issues.

For example, mothers cannot ignore their children, and minors should fulfill their obligations as parents.

The other person simply replied: "Go ahead and sue me, I won't go back."

then what should we do.

As the township head, Ah Shan could be considered a village head, though the township is too small. His role is to genuinely and practically solve problems for the extremely poor.

So he took Ayun on a journey to West China Hospital in Chengdu for healing.

Grandma Aixiang didn't come along.

The main problem is that I'm too old, and the city is too big.

If I'm not around then, and Grandma Aixiang is alone in the city with her grandson, it would be even more troublesome if she got lost one day.

It would be better to let her wait at home.

He asked a doctor at West China Hospital.

The success rate of teratoma surgery is quite high.

Let's come back after the child has recovered.

"Ah Yun, don't worry about money. Focus on getting better and walk your path carefully from now on. Be a useful member of society!"

Township head Ashan avoided the topic.

Neither the village nor General Manager Zhang can help him forever; he will have to walk his own path from now on.

"Mayor Ashan, is that the veterinarian? He paid for it, right?"

Ah Yun is quite clever.

He knew that surgery on his abdomen would be expensive, especially if it was done in a place like Chengdu.

Even if the village can help me, how much can they really help?

"Ah Yun, let's not worry about the money for now. Anyway, you know that someone helped us, and that's good enough."

I never expected this little kid who hasn't even finished elementary school to be so smart.

Yes.

It was indeed veterinarian Zhang who helped the other party.

Three hundred thousand yuan was directly deposited into Ayun's hospital medical card.

This money can be used for treatment at West China Hospital, ordering meals at the cafeteria, and so on.

"Mayor Ashan, even if you don't tell me, I'll find out when I go to the hospital, including the treatment costs; it's only a matter of time. It's better to tell me now. If you do, I promise you, Mayor Ashan, I'll definitely get into university, and I won't forget my promise to that veterinarian!"

"I know my mom doesn't want me anymore..."

The beginning was quite positive.

For some reason, the child's eyes suddenly dimmed, and then his whole body inexplicably paled.

"Ah Yun, don't think so much. A man walks his own path! Besides, I know you're good at math. From now on, just use your strengths and make sure you get over 90% on every math test. Then show me your test paper and I'll tell you how it goes."

Ayun is actually a very smart child, especially in mathematics.

He went to the primary school to find out more.

This child has a great talent for math; he gets over 95 points every time with almost no studying.

Even his math teacher spoke highly of him.

The only problem is that the child faces discrimination because of his large belly, which has led to him becoming somewhat withdrawn.

"90 out of 100, 108 out of 120, and 135 out of 150? Then I agree! Uncle Ashan, please tell me how much it costs, and how much the veterinarian sponsored!"

Ayun's eyes were filled with intense curiosity and longing.

He really, really wanted to know.
