“Have you had an ultrasound examination yet?”
The little girl nodded her head weakly and said, “I have. There’s a small cyst of 3 cm in my ovarian. I’ve been taking Chinese medicine for half a year.”
“Have you had a re-examination?”
“Not yet. I’m a little afraid.”
As for what she was afraid of, Jiang Tingxu knew.
Many girls would make a big deal after the examination revealed that there was a problem. In medical terms, it was actually just a small problem.
Moreover, for a small cyst of 3 cm, they didn’t even need to undergo surgery. They just needed to take medicine.
“The effects of Chinese medicine are relatively slow. You… you still need to have a check-up after your period ends. Now, I’ll give you some medicine to relieve the pain.”
“Yes, yes, yes. Doctor, quickly give me some medicine. Oh right, can you give me an injection to relieve the pain? I’m really in so much pain that I can’t stand it anymore.”
A girl with dysmenorrhea might not be able to experience the pain of a girl with very severe dysmenorrhea.
If one were to say that giving birth to a child was level-12 pain, then special dysmenorrhea would be at least level-10.
Not everyone could understand just how painful it was.
Jiang Tingxu nodded.
“Alright. If you want medicine, I’ll prescribe you two kinds of blood-activating and stasis-dissipating pills. One small pack of Vajra vine pills twice a day, two Shure Meridians twice a day, and twenty ibuprofen tablets for you. If you really can’t stand the pain, you can take two but not more than four tablets a day. Do you understand?”
Even the patients who were waiting behind felt sympathetic when they saw that the little girl was in so much pain that she couldn’t even speak.
Jiang Tingxu scanned the surroundings but didn’t see any family members. Did the little girl come alone?
Coincidentally, a nurse was walking past the office door when Jiang Tingxu called out to her.
“Help this young girl. She has severe menstrual cramps and no family members are around.”
If menstrual cramps were serious, one could faint. It wasn’t a small matter.
“Okay, Dr. Jiang.”
The nurse quickly came in and slowly helped the little girl out.
Upon seeing this, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
This also made them realize that Dr. Jiang’s attitude toward patients was really very good. After the meeting, no one urged her anymore. They quietly waited for her to call their names.
…
It was already 12:30 at midnight when Jiang Tingxu finished dealing with the patients.
Doctor Liao still had two patients waiting. The patient who was currently being consulted had a serious condition, so he had to explain things a little longer.
She quickly drank a few mouthfuls of water to moisten her throat and she felt much better.
Then, she said to the two patients who were waiting for Doctor Liao, “Let me do the consultations.”
The two patients immediately came over and handed over their registration forms.
“Which one of you is Liu Guang?”
The middle-aged man hurriedly raised his hand.
“Me, me, me.”
Jiang Tingxu nodded and said to the other person,
“He’s number 38. He’s ranked ahead of you, so I’ll do a consultation for him first.”
The last person was also a middle-aged man. Between men, how could there be so much fussing?
Besides, his number was ranked before him in the first place!
“I have no objections, absolutely no objections. Doctor, just let him have a look first!”
At this time, Liao Jiayu also smiled at Jiang Tingxu gratefully. He didn’t know how much longer he would have to explain to his current patient!
Jiang Tingxu nodded in response and looked at the patient sitting in front of her,
“What’s the situation?”
“My stomach hurts.”
“Lift up your clothes. Let me take a look.”
“Ah, okay.”
This man’s stomach was as fat as that of a four to five months pregnant woman.
Jiang Tingxu gently pressed the area around his stomach. When she pressed on one of the spots, the man cried out in pain.
