Reborn Wife Strikes Back in the 80s
Chapter 669 Scleroderma
Let me see! Dr. Xiao hurried over.
Looking over the girl's hands, and then looking at her face, Is this the case with feet too?
Yeah! The girl wiped her tears, took off her shoes, and took off her socks. The skin on her feet, especially the heels, was thick and hard, tight and shiny.
What's the matter, isn't this frostbite? The girl's father wondered, could it be worse than the lungs?
How long has this been the case? Guo Xiang asked.
It's been a few years, but this year is particularly serious, the girl said.
Guo Xiang's heart skipped a beat, indicating that his condition had worsened to the point that his lungs had become fibrotic.
What's the matter? This is... An Zehan didn't quite understand, it seemed like it was just a skin disease, maybe it was because the family was poor and didn't apply facial cream. It's such a cold day, right?
Does it hurt? Guo Xiang asked distressedly.
It hurts, you can't touch it with cold water, it hurts deeply when you touch it. And your feet, if you accidentally step on them, the pain will kill you, the girl said.
The girl's father was astonished, Miao Miao, why didn't you tell me earlier, you washed your clothes in cold water in the morning...
Dad... The girl smiled bitterly, I'm not happy if I don't become a grandmother, I'll beat and scold me, I'll just bear it.
Miao Miao... The girl's father's eyes became even redder, blaming himself for not caring enough about his daughter, and his mother's preference for sons over daughters. He couldn't change her mind. Fortunately, he didn't interfere too much when the child was sensible.
What's going on? An Zehan asked Guo Xiang softly.
This may be 'scleroderma'. Guo Xiang sighed. This is a more serious disease than pulmonary fibrosis. Lung fibrosis may also be used for lung transplantation. There is no cure for this disease.
Even in later generations, there is no cure, only long-term medication to improve, the result is still...
What is 'scleroderma'? An Zehan asked, only now he realized how little he had learned, but it was true that many medical books did not.
I'm going to ask Dr. Wang from the dermatology department to come down for a consultation. Dr. Xiao said.
Soon, Dr. Wang from the dermatology department was invited down. He carefully checked the skin on the girl, and his expression was abnormally solemn.
Doctor, what is my daughter's disease? the girl's father asked anxiously.
It can be basically determined that it is 'scleroderma', and part of the skin tissue should be taken for testing. Dr. Wang said,
Sighing lightly, Go to the hospital first, and have to do all kinds of inspections. Be prepared to fight a tough battle.
Doctor, is this disease incurable? the girl asked.
No, if you can control it, it's okay to live for decades, but you have to take medicine for life. Dr. Wang said, Don't be discouraged, some people take medicine for a lifetime, such as heart disease, such as high blood pressure. You don’t have to take medicine, just get used to it.”
Really? The girl's father rekindled hope that as long as it can be cured, even if it can't be cured completely, it is enough to live a normal life.
Go to the hospital first, said Dr. Wang.
Dr. Xiao issued a hospitalization order, and then asked for several examinations.
Scleroderma appears to be a skin disease on the surface, but in fact it is mainly due to a problem with the immune system, so it has not been transferred to a dermatologist.
The father and daughter went to the hospital, and An Zehan asked Guo Xiang, What is this scleroderma?
Scleroderma, also known as systemic sclerosis, is a connective tissue disease characterized by skin sclerosis and atrophy. At first, only the skin sclerosis, but gradually the thighs and internal organs may harden. This little girl has fibrotic lungs. The description is already serious.
It is possible that there is a problem with the kidneys. These organs are hardened, unable to breathe or metabolize, so that person will... Guo Xiang didn't say anymore.
How can you get this kind of disease? An Zehan asked.
The specific reason is not very clear. It may be genetic or viral infection. The most important thing is that there is a problem with the immune system. This is the most difficult to treat, and there is no specific medicine. Guo Xiang shook his head.
Then what? An Zehan exclaimed.
As Dr. Wang said, symptomatic treatment, if you can control it, you can still live a few more years...
The three were silent, and the situation was not optimistic.
Guo Xiang also sighed secretly in his heart. Even in later generations, this disease is very incurable, but at that time there were various advanced medicines that could be used to treat it. Some people with mild symptoms might live for decades, but this A lot of times are really powerless.
There are still many diseases that cannot be cured in the world, and doctors are really not immortals.
Then a young man walked in.
Seeing that the three doctors were silent, I was a little surprised, Doctor, can you still see a doctor here?
Dr. Xiao raised his head, Come in!
What's wrong? Doctor Xiao asked.
The young man sat down, stretched out his hands, and placed them on the table.
The three of them all looked at the hands. It was obviously winter, but the hands were wet and shiny, as if they had been washed with water.
It was the complete opposite of the little girl just now.
An Zehan thought that it would be nice if he could get together with the girl.
Doctor, look at my hands. No matter it's winter or summer, I sweat a lot. What's going on? I can't even hold the pen, and I have to wipe it when I write, it's too uncomfortable.
Not to mention in the summer, if I get nervous and excited again, the sweat will drip like water. I talked to someone recently, and I didn't dare to hold the other person's hand, for fear of being rejected by her. said kindly.
Dr. Xiao took a piece of toilet paper from the side and wiped it on the young man's hand. The paper was soaked all at once, showing how serious the sweat was.
This is hyperhidrosis. There is a problem with the sympathetic nerve, and the sweat glands are too strong. Dr. Xiao said.
Can that be cured? the young man asked hastily.
It can be cured. Dr. Xiao nodded, It's just a small operation to remove the sweat glands under the armpit.
Yes, my armpits sweat a lot. At the moment, my clothes are wet, and my feet are also sweating. In summer, it's even worse. Wearing plastic slippers is slippery. The young man nodded again and again, But it will take a while to remove the sweat glands. Wouldn't it stop sweating? Then...would it be so boring?
No, we have a lot of sweat glands all over our body, but the removal of the apocrine sweat glands in the armpit does not affect others. It will still release sweat, but it will be much better. Guo Xiang said.
Dr. Xiao also nodded.
That's great, I'm going to have an operation. The young man was very happy, paused and asked, Is the operation expensive?
It's not expensive, it's just a minor operation. Dr. Xiao said,
Well, when can I do it? I think the sooner I can do it, the better. The young man was very excited.
Dr. Xiao nodded and transferred him to general surgery. This operation can be done in general surgery.
As soon as the young man left, the three of them fell silent again, thinking of the girl in front of them, they were really happy and sad.
