Chapter 170 The Method of Healing Snake Venom

Chapter 169 The Method of Healing Snake Venom
There are not many medicines used by Qicun. Li Qingyun often uses him to treat snake venom. One is the tool used to cut the wound and suck out the poison, and the other is the traditional Chinese medicine that is taken orally and applied externally.

This time I heard that many soldiers were bitten by poisonous snakes, so Qi Cun brought all the pills in the house.When Li Qingyun came back, he asked him to pack up too, saying that he didn't need to bring too many things this time, and the military was responsible for everything.

Li Qingyun understood that Uncle Seven Inch was afraid that he would be able to take out everything from his backpack like last time, it was like a treasure chest.

However, no one knows the secret of the small space, so the backpack that hides the public must still be brought.So he greeted and said to go back and get the mountaineering backpack.

Li Yuncong was very excited. He heard that he could take part in secret operations with soldiers and explore the mountains. He felt very exciting. Even if he learned some skills of treating poisonous snakes from his father, he would not be bothered.

Time is short, connect the power bank and turn on the phone.Li Qingyun called his family, explained his whereabouts, and called his cousin Yang Yunu, asking her to pay attention to safety and be careful not to mess with Lu Xiaoguang.

Then, carrying a mountaineering bag, he boarded the military off-road vehicle.He sat in the back row with Qicun and Li Yuncong, and the co-pilot sat a middle-aged officer.

His expression was anxious, but he still explained patiently: "After entering the mountain, you must obey the command of the military and do not act without authorization. Now the mountain is very dangerous, the poisonous snakes are very aggressive, and some beasts have also been attacked. Also becoming irritable and aggressive."

"When we arrive at the foot of the mountain, a military helicopter will come to pick us up. By the way, my name is Sun Yan. For the time being, I am in charge of medical and logistical affairs for this operation. If you need anything, you can come to me directly, and I will follow you all the time. together."

Li Qingyun asked: "This morning, I saw four military ambulances crossing the river. There are so many military doctors, and they still can't treat the injured soldiers. Is it really no problem for us to pass through?"

"It's not a problem of manpower. Some medical experts said that the snake venom has mutated, and the snake venom serum that was prepared before does not work, and even has abnormal reactions. Now there is no way, some people propose to let the nearby Langzhong who treats poisonous snakes come over. Give it a try." Sun Yan said.

"Do you know Chu Yang? I heard that he is also here on a mission." Li Qingyun asked tentatively.

"Huh? How do you know, this is a secret after all. With Captain Chu's personality, it's impossible to reveal it to others easily." Sun Yan's expression changed slightly, staring at Li Qingyun.

Li Qingyun said with a smile, "Chu Yang and I are friends. I saw him on a patrol mission the day before yesterday, so I said hello. Although he didn't say anything, he could guess that he was on a mission nearby, otherwise he wouldn't have appeared near our village. ."

Hearing what Li Qingyun said, Sun Yan's expression softened and smiled: "Hehe, I know, he belongs to a special organization, and most of the tasks he performs are relatively dangerous. Wherever there is an emergency, you can see him wherever. We are on the top of the mountain. The medical area is also guarded by special security personnel under his command, if something happens, he will definitely appear."

Seeing that Sun Yan's attitude had changed a lot, Li Qingyun guessed that Chu Yang's position might not be low, and he was in a special army, so he kept talking about confidentiality regulations all day long.No, just find an officer who knows him, and he will tell you in one sentence.

Qicun suddenly coughed twice, cleared his throat and said, "Fuwa, Datou, since there are more wounded at the top of the mountain, then I will first tell you the principles of treatment and basic methods of treatment, so that you can prepare yourself mentally."

As soon as I said this, I heard Li Yuncong protest with dissatisfaction: "Dad, if you call my name, you will die? It's fine if others call me by my nickname, why do you call me all day long? Call me in a hurry!"

Qi Cun's response to him was just a slap and scolded: "What can you do in a hurry? I am happy to call you Big Head. You didn't listen to anyone, Big Head is smart, I wish you were smarter. I just started teaching you guys. A little bit of the basics of treating snake venom, and you're going to be noisy, don't you think?"

Qi Cun is an honest person. He doesn't usually get angry, but when he gets angry, his momentum is a bit scary.Li Yuncong suddenly lost his temper, drooping his head, and honestly listened to his father's explanation.

Li Qingyun grinned and did not interrupt the conflict between their father and son.

"Listen well, what I'm talking about has been passed down from generation to generation, and it has been verified by modern medicine to form a unique treatment plan. You should be more attentive. After you learn it well, it will affect your success in saving people in the future. Rate, human life is at stake, so you can't be sloppy."

Qicun did not shy away from the presence of the officer Sun Yan. What he wanted to talk about was only basic knowledge. The real secret recipe was the Chinese medicine he prepared to treat poisonous snakes, not these basic knowledge.

"Most venomous snakes have triangular heads, thin necks, long teeth, and wide open mouths when biting people. The venom glands of venomous snakes are connected to the fangs, and the venom is injected into the human body through the teeth when biting people. Compared with the other teeth marks, the front two are deeper and thicker. If these conditions occur, then this one is likely to be a poisonous snake."

"It's not enough just to know it's a poisonous snake. We need to distinguish what kind of snake bites it from the wound. This requires a certain amount of experience to do it. If you can't tell the difference, you need to ask the injured person and ask the injured person to describe the length of the snake that bit him. What kind, what color, what pattern. If you ask these things clearly, you are halfway there.”

"You must ask why. Because although there are many poisonous snakes, they are divided into four types by their venom."

"The first is blood circulation toxins, such as viper, belly snake, bamboo leaf green, five-step snake, etc. It causes rapid swelling, hardening, bleeding, severe pain, purple-black skin, and frequent skin necrosis at the bitten site. , swollen lymph nodes. It can spread to the head, neck, limbs and lower back after 6-8 hours. The sick dog trembles, body temperature rises, rapid heartbeat, difficulty breathing, can't stand. Nosebleeds, blood in urine, convulsions. If bitten Failure to receive effective treatment within the next 4 hours will eventually lead to death due to heart failure or shock.

"

"The second is neurotoxins, such as the toxins secreted by snakes such as golden ring snakes and silver ring snakes. After the bite, the local symptoms are not obvious, there is little bleeding, and the swelling and fever are mild. Symptoms: The patient is excited, groaning in pain, trembling in the whole body, foaming, difficulty swallowing, difficulty breathing, and finally lying on the ground, convulsions all over the body, paralysis of the respiratory muscles and death."

"The third type is mixed toxins, like cobra and king cobra snake venoms are mixed toxins. The local wound is red and swollen, hot, painful, and necrosis may occur. After the toxin is absorbed, the systemic symptoms are severe and complex, with both neurological symptoms and necrosis. There is damage from circulating toxins, and eventually the dog succumbs to asphyxiation or cardiac failure."

"The fourth type is cytotoxin, and sea snakes belong to cytotoxins. The damage of sea snake venom to the human body is mainly voluntary muscles, not the nervous system. Sea snake bites are painless, and there is a latency period for the onset of toxicity. After being bitten by sea snakes There are no obvious symptoms of poisoning within 30 minutes or even 3 hours, but this is very dangerous and can easily make people paralyzed.

In fact, sea snake venom is absorbed very quickly by the human body. The first thing you feel after poisoning is muscle weakness, soreness, drooping eyelids, and rigid jaws, which are a bit like symptoms of tetanus. At the same time, the heart and kidneys will also be severely damaged.People who are bitten can die within hours to days.Most sea snakes only hurt people when they are harassed. "

After listening to Li Qingyun, he thoughtfully said, "Uncle Seven Inch, we have the first three kinds of poisonous snakes here, and we have never seen the fourth kind of sea snakes. Do you want to learn how to treat sea snake venom?"

"You don't need to learn, because I can't cure it either. Our ancestors have lived in Qinglong Town for generations, and we can only treat common poisonous snakes on land. In fact, I only have two kinds of pills here, one for blood circulation toxins, and the other for neurotoxins. The two are used together to treat mixed toxins. The ointment applied to the wound can be used or not. If there is no such ointment, it can be washed with water."

And Li Yuncong lay lazily on the back seat, almost fell asleep, and said fascinatedly: "What's the use of talking about these, just tell us the secret recipe of medicine? It's useless to eat one, and then eat another. One kind, it won't kill anyone anyway."

Qicun slapped his son's head again, and said angrily, "Bastard! What are you talking about, who said that you can't kill people if you eat it? After being hit by a poisonous snake, there is a difference between one minute earlier and one minute later. The same kind of poisonous snake bites Injury, because the amount of toxin injected is different, the dosage of the medicine has to be adjusted, and the weight of the wounded is different, so the dosage of the medicine has to be adjusted, you don’t understand this, is it not easy to eat dead people?”

"I hit me on the head again. Even if I was smart, I was fooled by you." Li Yuncong muttered a few words. Seeing that no one sympathized with him, he immediately closed his mouth.

Seeing his son calm down, Qicun continued to preach: "I just saw the wounded, and I need to tie knots for them to prevent the poison from spreading to the whole body. If the back of the foot is bitten, tie the knot on the calf. If the back of the hand is bitten, tie it on the calf The arm is ligated. You can use ordinary rope or a tourniquet. However, you must pay attention to the time of the tie, and loosen it for two to three minutes every 10 minutes, otherwise the blood circulation will stop and the limb will die.”

"The next step is to clean the wound, just rinse it with water or normal saline. If the bite site is closed, you need to open it with a knife, and use a cupping cup to suck out the toxins. Like my homemade inhaler, it is modified according to the shape of the cupping cup. If Time is urgent, and I don’t have these tools, so I can only suck with my mouth. Before sucking, it is best to drink canola oil to prevent toxins from poisoning themselves through the oral wound. After sucking, rinse your mouth with water.”

Then, Qicun took out two bottles of medicine and explained to the two people: "The type of toxins in the injured person, feed them different medicines, and I will teach you how to distinguish the two medicines and the key points of preparation later. The pain is unbearable, and you can put some homemade ointment on them."

Li Yuncong smiled suddenly: "Dad, you have taught us all these two times. How will you make money in the future? Otherwise, you can keep the unique skills of catching snakes for yourself, and you don't need to teach us."
