The Sports Healer Starting from Milan

Chapter 114 Judy, a patient with an extremely rare illness

Sadrick quickly explained, "I agree with Wood's conclusions, but more evidence is needed. I suggest you design a prospective study to standardize dynamic thyroid monitoring under exercise load, which could potentially rewrite the guidelines."

"And can you guarantee that group of people..."

Sadrick winked at the phone.

Roberto-Mochini pondered for a moment, then said, "Then your endocrinology department will do it, and Wood will be the corresponding author."

Sadrick felt a throbbing in his temples.

The first author is often the main implementer of the research, while the corresponding author is the overall person in charge of the project.

Are they being treated like laborers?

"This isn't appropriate. What will the reviewers think? An orthopedic surgeon proposes a new idea, and then an endocrinologist uses it to conduct experiments?"

Sadrick felt this was inappropriate.

In this way.

Endocrinologists worldwide would consider them a disgrace.

How embarrassing!

Roberto-Muchini shook his head: "If it weren't for Wood's idea, this project wouldn't exist. I'm not helping him steal anything, but this is what Wood deserves."

The two were deadlocked.

Lin Mu was answering a phone call from Zhang Xin of the Foreign Affairs Department of the Volleyball Management Center by the window.

The other party said that Feng Kun would probably arrive in Milan that evening.

"I'll make the arrangements for you here. After we finish the examinations tomorrow, we'll see when the earliest we can have the surgery."

Lin Mu replied.

After he finished speaking, he came back.

Sadrick sighed. "Alright."

He compromised anyway.

Because he remembered just how miserable Cody Anderson had been.

Who knows, one day in the future, Lin Mu might become a leading expert in endocrinology.

Then they won't be a disgrace to the endocrinology department anymore.

Rather, they are investors with a forward-looking vision.

"Wood, I'll talk to you about the clinical issues later, and we'll try to get it up and running as soon as possible."

Sadrick said.

Lin Mu nodded and kept this in mind.

But I can't help but feel a sense of感慨 (gǎnkǎi, a complex feeling of mixed emotions, including regret and reflection

My own life is never just busy, it's always getting busier.

Today is Wednesday.

Lin Mu rubbed his hair and walked towards the clinic.

Although he now holds a very high position.

Founder of ACL double-bundle reconstruction, chief surgeon in sports rehabilitation, and lecturer in international advanced training courses.

They also spearheaded multicenter clinical trials.

But I still have to take half a day each week to go to the outpatient clinic.

Of course, if he told the teacher, canceling it probably wouldn't be a problem.

"Outpatient visits are a good way to continuously obtain data."

Forest trees can occasionally encounter difficult and complicated problems.

"Dr. Wood!"

The first patient to arrive was Elena, and the little girl greeted them with a bright smile.

"Elena, are you sick?"

Lin Mu thought to himself, "I saw Elena dancing last time, so her physical condition should be fine, right?"

Although a long time has passed.

"It wasn't me, it was my friend, Judy!"

Elena turned to the side as she spoke.

She made way for a girl in a wheelchair, about the same age as Elena, with a slightly pale face.

"Justine had a check-up at the University Hospital of Milan, and the diagnosis was toe bone pain and strain, but the treatment wasn't very effective. I told her I knew a very, very good doctor!"

Elena continued.

"Bring the patient in."

Lin Mu nodded.

Judy was pushed in front of the trees by her parents.

"Did you bring the medical records?"

Lin Mu asked.

Judy's parents exclaimed repeatedly, "Here it is!"

They had a really hard time getting an appointment with a forestry specialist.

After all, times have changed.

Lin Mu wasn't very famous when Elena was sick.

Lin Mu took it and carefully looked through it.

The patient suddenly experienced severe pain and swelling on the dorsum of his right forefoot after rehearsal.

There is no clear past medical history.

"Do you remember what moves you did during rehearsal?"

Lin Mu looked at Judy.

Judy frowned slightly in pain as she recalled carefully, "The spin and half-pointe were fine during rehearsals, and there was no pain. But when I woke up the next day, I couldn't move my right foot."

Lin Mu seemed to be deep in thought.

The case report shows that Judy scored 7 on the VAS test, which is the Visual Analogue Scale.

Use a 10-centimeter line.

One end of the line represents no pain, and the other end represents the most pain.

The patient marks the location based on their sense of touch.

A score of 7 indicates severe pain, meaning it is unbearable and seriously affects daily life.

"Anna!"

Lin Mu called out towards the door.

Anna, who had just been passing by, heard this and immediately rushed inside. "What's wrong?"

"Help me lift the patient onto the hospital bed."

Lin Mu needs to give Judy a physical exam.

As soon as he finished speaking, Anna quickly and gently picked up Judy and placed her on the bed.

forest:

'

""

Now I finally understand why the teacher made an exception and took on a last disciple.

Anna is indeed a genius in orthopedics.

Lin Mu watched as Judy took off her shoes.

Well... ballet dancers' feet aren't actually that pretty, whether you look at them on the surface or on an X-ray.

Lin Mu reached out his hand to inspect it.

Edema with localized tenderness was visible on the dorsal side of the third metatarsophalangeal joint. Passive movement was restricted and painful.

There are no ecchymosis, deformities, or neurovascular defects.

He picked up the X-ray again, but couldn't see too many problems.

No wonder the diagnosis from the University Hospital of Milan was a stress fracture of the metatarsal bone.

"I am now considering an isolated acute intra-articular cartilage posterior roll fracture of the third metatarsal in the right foot."

Lin Mu had already seen it clearly, but he needed imaging evidence. "Let's take the patient for a CT scan."

"Dr. Wood, we've had many X-rays taken before."

Judy's parents weren't worried about the money; they just didn't want their daughter to suffer indefinitely without any resolution.

Moreover, Lin Mu said a whole bunch of things, which left them all bewildered as they couldn't understand him.

"These types of fractures are easily missed on standard X-ray films. Using CT to examine the shape of the fracture fragments is more reliable, and I also need to rule out chronic non-traumatic osteochondrosis."

Lin Mu explained patiently.

Judy's parents exchanged a glance and finally nodded.

"Judy, don't worry, Dr. Wood is amazing! He can definitely cure you!"

Elena was also there to comfort her.

Judy, however, kept her lips pursed, and there was no light in her eyes.

Judy was pushed around by the nurse to get a CT scan, like a walking corpse.

"Senior brother, this disease is so rare! I've only ever read about it in books!"

Anna asked in a low voice.

"It is indeed very rare."

Lin Mu pointed to the present medical history on the case file, "Because its pathogenesis is very unique, for example, the semi-toe movement generates huge shear force at the third metatarsophalangeal joint."

"Forced dorsiflexion caused the base of the proximal phalanx to impact the metatarsal bone, cutting off a piece of cartilage from the dorsal side and causing it to tilt and roll backward within the joint capsule."

As Lin Mu spoke, he held his palm upside down, his fingertips touching the table behind him.

Anna already had excellent grades in biomechanics.

Upon hearing Lin Mu's explanation, he immediately understood.

He then looked at Lin Mu with an expression of admiration.

"I told you Dr. Wood was the best!"

Elena shouted it out too.

Although she couldn't understand it.
