  Chapter 627 Extensive and severe burns

   Today is the time for Chen Qi to go to the countryside for free consultation once a month.

  In the compound of Huangtan Health Center, there was already a long queue at this time, and the doctor's office was so full that it was difficult to even turn around.

  Chen Qi was sitting at his desk in a white coat at this time, while looking at the X-ray film, he said:

"My fellow, it's not a big problem. You have acute fasciitis. The pain must be painful. I'll give you a sealing injection in a while, and the pain won't go away. After you go back, you can use a hot towel to compress it, which can promote inflammation. fading."

  The patient sitting on the side nodded after listening:

   "Thank you Dean Chen, thank you Dean Chen, you are really a good person, you don't charge money for this, this is my old man's kindness, you must not refuse."

   Chen Qi looked at it and was speechless for a while, because there were two air-dried chickens again.

  Anyway, the people of Huangtan have recognized that Chen Qi likes to eat sauced duck and bacon. Every time Chen Qi goes to the countryside for a free clinic, he can receive a trunk of local specialties every time.

   This is the wish of a fellow villager in the mountains. Even if Chen Qi really doesn't like food, he won't refuse:

   "Okay, sir, I really like this air-dried chicken, so I will pay for your injections and prescriptions later."

   "No, no, no, Dean Chen, you don't charge registration fees when you see a doctor, how can you pay for the medicine."

"Master, there is no way, I am a leading cadre, we can't take the people's stitches, so I accept your air-dried chicken, don't be polite to me for the medicine, otherwise I won't accept it in the future! "

  The old man in the mountains rubbed his hands: "Then thank you Dean Chen, hehehe."

  After the old man stood up and left, Chen Qi casually handed the two air-dried chickens to Yang Xiuxiu, a nurse behind him. Yang Xiuxiu quickly wrapped them in plastic bags and put them in the next room.

"Next person!"

   As soon as Chen Qi finished shouting, he smelled a strange smell. It was the smell from his body after not taking a bath for many years. After all, not everyone in the mountains is hygienic, and everyone is used to it.

  Chen Qi just pretended not to smell anything, and looked at the old lady in front of him kindly.

   "Old lady, what's wrong with you?"

This is a hunched body, a thin old lady who is no more than 150 tall, with gray hair floating around, and a stick made of a branch in her hand. Her clothes are also tattered. Looking at the economic conditions, she belongs to a poor household. kind of.

  The wrinkles on her face are really like bark, not only her face, her hands are full of scratches.

   "Dean Chen, it's not me who sees a doctor, I want to ask, can you see a doctor for my daughter and granddaughter?"

   Facing an old man who was almost begging, Chen Qi suppressed his curiosity and nodded repeatedly:

   "What's wrong with your daughter and your granddaughter? As long as I can help, I will help, right, where are they?"

  The old lady burst into tears as she spoke:

"They can't get out at home. We are poor and can't be sent to the hospital, but if they don't get medical treatment, they will die. My poor daughter and my poor granddaughter, she was only 6 years old and died so painfully. I am also heartbroken. dead~~~"

  Old people, when they talk about sad things, they can’t make a sound, and they can’t speak clearly.

   Just when Chen Qi was at a loss, a patient next to him took the initiative to say:

"Dean Chen, I know this old woman. She is from Dingjiawu Village. It seems that his son-in-law Han Lao Wu is fond of gambling, and then owed a lot of debts outside. He set fire to his own house, and even wanted to burn his wife and children to death."

  Someone next to him couldn’t understand:

   "It's okay to burn the house. Why do you burn your wife and children to death? If you want to burn it, you will burn the creditor to death."

   "Yes, yes, is there something wrong with this man's brain?"

  The informed villagers slapped their thighs:

"Hey, you guys don't know, that Han Lao Wu is really out of his mind. He said that the creditor took over his house, and he will definitely arrest his wife and daughter to pay off the debt. It's better to die than his own wife and daughter being ruined by others. Forget it."

   At this time, a woman couldn't listen anymore, and asked loudly:

   "Why didn't he burn himself to death for this little bastard? Why did he kill his wife and children?"

  The informed villagers also looked contemptuous: "So, people who gamble in the West have long been inhumane. Marrying into such a family is a crime~~~"

  Yang Xiuxiu and Chen Li stood aside, and when they heard this story, they were also very angry:

   "It's too much, there are such shameless people in the world, and the police don't care?"

  The old woman who was crying at this time also cried out:

"The police took my son-in-law away, but when the house was burned down, the medical expenses of my daughter and granddaughter were gone. The poor brothers raised a little money and spent it long ago. Now my daughter and granddaughter spend it every day. The pain is so painful that I can’t even cry, I’m going to die, I’m going to die.”

  Chen Qi was also angry when he heard this, but as a doctor, he still had to ask clearly, especially for burn patients.

   "Old lady, don't cry, let me ask, where are your daughter and granddaughter's burns?"

  If it’s a partial burn, it’s easy to deal with, but if it’s a full-body burn, Chen Qi has to scratch his head.

   "They, the two of them have been burnt to the point where they are not human. Here, here, and here, the skin has been burned away."

  When the onlookers heard it, they were all tsk-tsk-tsk-tsk-tsk-tsk-tsk-tsk-tsk-tsk-tsk-tsk-tsk-tsk-tsk-tsk-tsk-tsk-tsk-tsk-tsk-tsk-tsk-tsk-tsk-tsk-tsk-tsk-tsk-tsk-tsk-tsk-tsk-tsk-tsk-tsk-tsk-tsk-tsk-tsk-tsk-tsk-tsk-tsk-tsk-tsk-tsk-tsk-tsk-tsk-tsk-tsk-tsk-tsk-tsk-tsk-tut-sorry-crowd-crowd-crowd, but his heart was chilled by the old lady's description, that is, there were burns on the torso, limbs, and even the head and neck.

  Although it is impossible to determine the degree of burns, the area alone is terrifying.

   "Then how many days has it been since your daughters were burned?"

  The old lady thought about it for a while: "It's been a month, and it's been a full month of burns. It happened on the birthday of Grandpa Bodhisattva, the Fifth King, last month."

   "A month?"

  Chen Qi was a little stunned. The patient with extensive burns, without being sent to the hospital, has not died after a month? Is this a miracle or is the old lady lying?

  The people around didn't think so much, and they were spreading gossip one by one, even pity the old man's daughter and granddaughter.

  At this time, Yan Quanxin squeezed in from the door and asked strangely:

   "Chen Qi, why don't you keep calling your number? What happened?"

   "Uncle Yan, it's just in time for you to come. Do you know that there was a fire in Dingjiawu Village last month, which burned two people?"

  Yan Quanxin is an aborigine of Huangtan, and the locals are well-known. There is nothing big or small that happened in Huangtan Town that he doesn't know.

"Dingjiawu Village, I know about this. It's the man who locked his wife and children in the house and set fire to it. This man has now been locked up in the Yuezhong Detention Center. Damn it, he's not a person. I think I'll give him two slaps, the tiger's poison doesn't even eat its eggs."

   "It's really been a month?" Chen Qi's curiosity grew stronger and stronger.

  At the same time, Yuezhong People's Hospital has just established a burn surgery department, which needs intractable diseases or critically ill patients to practice their hands, so he has a decision in mind.

   "Old lady, don't be in a hurry. After get off work at noon, we will go home with you to see how your daughter and granddaughter are doing before making any plans, okay?"

   "Okay, thank you, Dean Chen, you are really a Bodhisattva who saves suffering~~~"

  The surrounding people also praised the generosity of President Chen again and again, and then the free clinic in the morning continued...

  At noon, Chen Qi didn't have time to eat, so he got on the tractor provided by the town, and took Yi Zewen, Zhang Xing, Chen Li, Yang Xiuxiu, Yan Quanxin, and Jin Tao, the director of Huangtan Health Center, to Dingjiawu Village.

  The mountain road is rugged, and it took a full hour and a half to drive there.

  The tractor stopped in front of a dilapidated house. The house still had yellow mud walls and the eaves were supported by wood. It looked like it might collapse at any time, all of which showed the poverty of the family.

   "Dean Chen, this is my home. My daughter and granddaughter are in the room."

  Chen Qi looked around, the countryside at this time was not transformed by the beautiful countryside of later generations, the current countryside is dilapidated, there is not even a good road, and there is yellow mud under the feet.

  Chen Qi looked at the conditions, not talking about drawing others, but evaluating the surrounding environment.

   Burn patients are most afraid of infection, so they often need a sterile ward. If the surrounding environment is dirty, it is definitely not a good thing.

  The old lady had already opened the door, and Chen Qi bowed his head and walked into the room first.

  As soon as he entered the door, Chen Qi smelled a stench, which was almost a corpse-like smell, mixed with some Chinese herbal medicine.

   The first time Chen Qi smelled this smell was not nausea, but a thud, because the smell meant that the patient had already had a bacterial infection.

  The stronger the stench, the deeper the infection.

   As mentioned earlier, one of the important causes of death of burn patients is sepsis caused by infection.

  Chen Qi didn't say a word, and then Yang Xiuxiu jumped into the room. Suddenly, she froze, and then quickly pushed Yi Zewen behind her and ran outside.

  vomit~~~vomit~~~

  Yi Zewen was a little surprised at the beginning why this little nurse suddenly reacted so strongly. Could it be that she was pregnant before she was married? As a result, when he walked into the house, he knew why he vomited.

  Because he himself has a strong sense of nausea and wants to vomit.

  But he is already the director of the department, and Yi Zewen still endured it. The surgeon has an advantage in this regard, because in many bowel operations, the abdominal cavity is often encountered with foul smells as soon as the abdominal cavity is opened.

  As for Chen Qi, he is used to the smell of dead bodies, let alone living people.

   Seeing the violent reactions of several doctors, the old lady felt sad for a while, and said with a forced smile:

   "Dean Chen, please, let me see if my granddaughter and I can still be cured?"

  Chen Qi nodded, and made up his mind to pull up a layer of curtains. The first thing he saw was a mosquito net. The old lady still had basic hygiene knowledge. Without a mosquito net, people would probably be covered with maggots.

  Opening the mosquito net, I saw two people, one big and one small, lying on the bed. As far as I could see, the whole body of the patient was completely black.

   Rao is that Chen Qi already has psychological construction, and he was shocked when he saw this scene.

  The whole body of the two patients, one big and one small, was pitch-black, and they seemed to be scabbed with blood. This is the manifestation of third-degree burns.

  It is black from head to toe, which is a typical manifestation of severe burns. How can it be rescued? It is really a miracle that the patient survived for a month.

   Seeing Chen Qi in a daze, Yan Quanxin squeezed in from behind, and his eyeballs almost fell out when he saw the two patients on the bed:

   "Ah, it's burnt like this, this, this is really... what are you applying?"

   "Huh, wiped something?"

  Chen Qi's eyes are a little nearsighted, and the lighting in the room is not very good, so he didn't see too clearly when he stood by the bed.

  The old lady wiped her tears when she heard the inquiry and introduced:

"There is no way, Dean Chen, we have no money to send to the hospital, so we can only use earthy methods, that is, add some herbs to the ash from the bottom of the pot, then mix some tung oil and rub it on the body, my own daughter, my most darling granddaughter , I can’t watch them die, woo woo woo~~~~”

   Chen Qi grasped the key words: pot bottom ash + tung oil + Chinese herbal medicine.

  Because the mother and daughter hugged each other when the fire broke out, especially the little girl's head was tightly held by the mother, so the main burn wounds were on the back and limbs.

  Of course, being a mother is more serious, with partial burns on the head and face, while the little girl's head and face are still in a relatively complete state.

Regardless of the smell, Chen Qi took a closer look at the wound. In fact, the wound could no longer be seen at this time, because layers of pot bottom ash and Chinese herbal medicine were applied, just like fried chicken legs wrapped in a layer of flour. reason.

   At this time, Yi Zewen and Zhang Xing, who were suppressing the stench, also exclaimed after seeing the patient:

"Dean Chen, it seems that the situation is not good. Well, how can this burn patient use pot bottom ash and herbal medicine? Doesn't this increase the risk of bacterial infection? Alas, this is another incident of folk remedies harming people. "

  Chen Qi moved his mouth. According to his knowledge and clinical experience, this method of plastering the whole body is indeed incorrect, but he feels that something is wrong.

  Because the patient persisted for a month without dying under the premise of such a huge and serious burn area, lack of medical treatment, and dirty environment, there must be unknown reasons for this.

  If a person is dead and a person is alive, it may also be that the living person has tenacious vitality.

  But both the big and the young survived. This has to be said to be a medical miracle, and it is worth studying.

  The old lady saw several doctors studying for a long time, and then weakly begged:

   "Doctor, Dean Chen, please save them, they are miserable people~~~"

  Ding Xinjuan on the bed heard the voice, tears began to flow, and said softly in a hoarse voice:

   "Mother, I'm dying, let me die."

  At this moment, the little girl Song Yanzi on the bed moaned in pain:

   "Grandma, I hurt..."

  Hearing the little girl's cry, and seeing the poor child's whole body being smeared black and emitting a stench, Chen Qi's heart was about to melt, and he couldn't hold it anymore.

   "Little sister, don't be afraid, uncle is a doctor, and he is here to treat your illnesses."

  The little girl has no scheming, unlike her mother who wanted to die, so she begged:

   "Uncle, can you make mommy and nannie stop being so hurt? nannie is very good, she doesn't want new clothes, she doesn't want sweets anymore, she will be obedient in the future."

  Chen Qi was so distressed that tears were about to fall: "Don't worry, baby, uncle will do his best to save you!"

  However, it is not easy to save such a large area of ​​severe burn patients.
