Chapter 8 The first patient
The next day, Chen Dong welcomed his first patient.
"Cough, cough, doctor, I seem to have a cold and fever, please help me see if I can get an infusion."
A thin man walked in, his face looked very pale.
At first glance, the condition is more serious.
Chen Dong frowned, and asked about his basic situation.
"It's been more than a week, why didn't you come and see it sooner?"
"Didn't I think it was just a common cold? I took a few boxes of medicine from the pharmacy and took it back, but I didn't take it to heart."
"But who knows, it's been more than a week and it's not getting better, but it's getting worse."
After speaking, the man coughed again.
Even his speaking voice was hoarse.
Chen Dong carefully recorded the patient's condition.
"Open your mouth."
Inflammation of the tonsils, no wonder it will get worse.
"Are there any other symptoms? Like feeling like there's something foreign in your throat?"
The man nodded, and said with a painful expression: "I ate some porridge these days, and it feels like a stone is blocked in my throat."
Upon hearing this, Chen Dong reached out and touched the man's throat.
This does not appear to be a simple inflammation of the tonsils.
To verify my guesses.
Chen Dong made an order for the other party.
"Your inflammation is a bit serious. I need to know if there is a lump in your throat. You should go to the second floor to take a B-ultrasound first."
Unexpectedly, the man screamed when he heard this sentence.
"Why do you still need to do B-ultrasound?"
"Doctor, just prescribe me some medicine and let me get an injection. I don't want to fix those things."
Chen Dong said in a serious tone: "This is not something you think about or not. Since you have decided to come to the hospital for treatment, you have to listen to me."
The man stood there awkwardly.
"Doctors who don't use it really don't need to take B-ultrasound."
Chen Dong looked at the other party's yellowed white shirt, and sighed helplessly.
"Are you a doctor or am I a doctor? Do you still want to be cured?"
How could he not know that the other party just wanted to save a little money?
But this is a matter of life.
And he just opened a B-ultrasound order for the other party.
He omitted all inspections that could be omitted.
If it was any other doctor, without further ado, he would directly ask him to do a routine blood test, urine, stool, blood pressure, and then do a B-ultrasound.
"Doctor, why don't you do this, give me an infusion first, and if it doesn't improve, I'll go for a B-ultrasound."
the man asked tentatively.
Many patients will hold such a tentative psychology.
After procrastinating and procrastinating, things that could have been settled with more than 100 yuan have to be postponed to the end and cost thousands or even tens of thousands of yuan to solve.
The money is spent, not to mention the crime.
Chen Dong now suspects that the other party is a typical airway obstruction, and there should be a foreign object in his throat.
If you don't treat it according to the condition in time, I'm afraid you will have to use the knife until the end.
"My wife said, just hang a bottle of anti-inflammatory water."
Chen Dong laughed back angrily: "You don't have to do other examinations, but you must take B-ultrasound."
"Otherwise, you can go to another doctor to show you. I don't have the ability."
"No, doctor, that's not what I meant."
Chen Dong directly slapped the list on the table: "Go to the first floor to pay the fee, then go to the second floor for a B-ultrasound, and then bring the film up for me to see."
"I need to know your condition before I can prescribe medicine for you!"
"I'm a doctor and not a fairy. If you don't do an examination, how will I know what's going on with you?"
The man took the list in a daze, and responded repeatedly.
He went out the door and never came back.
However, Chen Dong didn't take this matter to heart.
Because the emergency room is so busy.
Most of them are patients with cold, fever and sore throat.
Respiratory diseases are the most common, but they are also very troublesome.
Especially some younger patients.
I always feel that it doesn't matter.
Soon Chen Dong put this matter behind him.
When he thinks about it again.
It's been three days.
"Doctor Chen, there is a patient in the emergency department, you should go and see him quickly."
"It is said that an operation is needed, and now I can't even speak, and it is very difficult to breathe."
Since Chen Dong assisted Wang Jiancai to complete the operation last time.
Almost no one in Shancheng Hospital did not know Chen Dong's name.
The little nurse looked anxious and kept urging Chen Dong.
Chen Dong nodded, immediately put down what he was doing, and ran to the emergency room.
When he saw the man lying on the hospital bed with flushed face and difficulty breathing, he recognized him at a glance.
Is it the man from a few days ago?
It seems that he really sneaked away that day.
Chen Dong shook his head helplessly: "Aren't you asking for trouble? Why didn't you listen to the doctor?"
If I listened to him that day, I would honestly do a B-ultrasound.
Maybe there will be no such thing after that.
Li Dazhu was lying next to the hospital bed, his wife had a sad face, and tears couldn't stop streaming down her face.
"What sin did I do to suffer like this?"
"Doctor, please save my child's father."
"Father, if you die, what will the child and I do?"
At this time, Li Dazhu's breathing was already very weak.
The whole person is a little delirious.
When Chen Dong heard the woman's cry, his face was covered with black lines: "Don't worry, he won't die."
Although the situation is serious, it is not fatal.
It's just medical expenses...
Chen Dong secretly shook his head.
He said all the good things before, but the other party didn't listen, so what can he do?
"Let me write you a few orders first, and do all the inspections that need to be done."
Chen Dong spoke before the woman wanted to speak.
"All the inspections I made are mandatory inspections. If you don't want to do it, you will have to wait for death. Even gods can't save you."
It was the first time for Chen Dong to speak so absolutely.
Just to prevent the family from sneaking away again.
Sure enough, the woman showed hesitation and even stopped crying.
"Will doctors be expensive? We don't have that much money."
"We are just poor country people."
Chen Dong was angry and helpless, so he could only comfort him with a smile: "Don't worry, these inspections can be done for about two to three hundred yuan. If you have medical insurance and are poor, you can claim 300%."
The woman looked happy: "Really? Thank you so much, doctor."
Said hurriedly ran to pay the money.
The result was indeed as Chen Dong guessed.
The man had a tumor in his throat.
About the size of a mineral water cap.
Chen Dong sighed. If he had gone for an examination earlier, he might not have developed into what he is now.
Maybe taking some medicine at that time can make it go away.
It turned out to be fine now, and I had to have surgery.
