Healing Doctor

Chapter 127 I was just saying, there's no problem with that.

When Ji Xiang opened his eyes again, he had already returned to the system's operating room.

"Teacher, why am I back?"

The system NPC said calmly, "It was micturition syncope. The emergency room doctors and nurses were rushing to resuscitate you and didn't notice you had fainted."

"!!!"

Micturition syncope, also known as sudden urination, is commonly called "urination syncope".

The main symptom is that people suddenly faint when they get up to urinate at night or in the early morning due to a brief loss of consciousness.

A brief loss of consciousness can occur during urination, and this loss of consciousness can easily trigger micturition syncope.

Ji Xiang knew that this situation was caused by low blood pressure due to vasodilation and vasoconstriction disorders, resulting in a temporary lack of blood supply to the brain. The patient would wake up on his own in about two minutes after the fainting occurred, and there would be no sequelae.

But he never expected that after going through all the hardships of finally inserting the catheter, he would experience micturition syncope!

Is this considered medical malpractice?

A thought flashed through Ji Xiang's mind, and he thought of another problem.

"Teacher, are all the empathies I experience specific to a particular group?"

"Of course," the system NPC said. "They were all modified from patient templates with more severe conditions."

"stencil?"

The system NPC smiled slightly, not answering Ji Xiang's question, but continuing on its own, "Prostate enlargement and hyperplasia are not serious in themselves; most men over 30 will have some degree of it. It takes many years to truly understand the changes in the condition, and the system's energy does not currently support that."

"It's really uncomfortable," Ji Xiang said sincerely, scratching his head.

"No illness is comfortable; health is wealth." The system NPC gave Ji Xiang a bowl of chicken soup, but Ji Xiang ignored it completely.

"Teacher, I'm going back now."

"Um."

……

……

Ji Xiang felt much better after returning from the operating room.

It feels so good to be healthy! Even with something as minor as "prostate enlargement".

"At our age, we're all the same, me too," Director Liu said, looking at the patient.

At that moment, he didn't seem like a doctor, but rather like two old men who met while taking a stroll downstairs and talked about their unspeakable illnesses.

"Doctor, you have one too?" The patient was somewhat moved.

"Of course," Director Liu said. "The prostate is the only organ in the human body that can grow throughout one's life. It is said that nine out of ten men suffer from hemorrhoids. Hemorrhoids may be avoided, but benign prostatic hyperplasia cannot be avoided. It's just a matter of degree. There's no escaping it, no escaping it."

"Are your symptoms severe?" the patient asked.

Ji Xiang listened silently as Director Liu subtly shifted his perspective, closing the distance between himself and the patient, as if they were "chatting" like fellow patients discussing their conditions.

Every word he spoke had its own purpose, and he quickly figured out the patient's condition.

After that, Director Liu began to introduce several treatment options to the patient.

Oral medications, green laser excision, and even acupuncture are available.

The patient, who was suffering from benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) and could no longer endure it, opted for green laser resection.

Although Director Liu was a little slow in seeing patients, he handled the problems exceptionally well.

After the patient left, when the next patient came in, Ji Xiang asked curiously, "Director, your prostate...?"

"Oh, my prostate is perfectly fine," Director Liu said frankly. "I've seen so many patients in the clinic, I'm just saying this casually to reassure them."

"ha!"

Ji Xiang carefully examined Director Liu's expression, but couldn't tell which of his words were true and which were false.

"You think I'm telling the truth? Actually, I can still pee a good distance in the wind right now!" Director Liu's confident words did not impress Ji Xiang; he was 100% bragging.

"Director, you have truly extensive clinical experience," Ji Xiang praised sincerely.

Director Liu glanced at Ji Xiang, knowing he didn't believe he could urinate a good distance, and felt a little disappointed.

"Actually, it's also because of my specialist consultations."

"Um?"

"In a regular clinic, I see about a hundred patients a day. I don't have time to chat with them that much. When they come in, I ask about their symptoms, order tests, and then make a diagnosis based on the auxiliary tests. That's how I proceed."

"If you talk to one patient for fifteen minutes, the patients behind you will start cursing. You have to look at things dialectically, Dr. Ji, don't be so rigid in your thinking."

Although Ji Xiang felt that the idiom "carving a mark on a boat to find a lost sword" was questionable, he understood what Director Li meant.

"When I was young, I didn't even have time to drink water when I was on my regular outpatient clinic. Let alone drinking water, I didn't even have time to go to the toilet. I would have to hold my urine for at least a few hours. If I went to the toilet and encountered a patient with a bad temper, they would curse and even hit me."

"Look, you'll feel better now. When you go to the outpatient clinic in the future, remember to drink less water. Holding your urine all the time is bad for your health."

Director Liu rambled on about some fragmented experiences, and then the next patient came in.

Ji Xiang diligently typed in the outpatient medical records, knowing that Director Liu's intention to promote him was very clear.

The interactions between Director Liu and the patients were full of the mindset of a veteran clinician. Although he had never experienced the patients' feelings firsthand, he could still fabricate stories that were so vivid and convincing that they seemed real.

But does Director Liu really not have benign prostatic hyperplasia?

Time flies. I saw 12 patients in the afternoon and it was time to get off work.

There is indeed a big difference between seeing 12 patients and 50 patients in half a day; at least Director Liu has some time to communicate with them.

"All done, that's a wrap!" Director Liu said with a smile after seeing the last patient.

"Dr. Xiao Ji, are you going home or back to the inpatient department?" Director Liu asked again.

"Go home after finishing your medical record in the inpatient department."

"During your residency training, you should still spend more time in the clinic. Although we don't have many emergencies in urology... By the way, I heard from Xiao Wu that you're quite good at dealing with pike."

"Ah." Ji Xiang had completely forgotten about the dogfish incident.

"Do you like fishing too?"

"My dad goes fishing occasionally, but he's not really addicted," Ji Xiang answered truthfully.

"What a pity, it would be great if we could have a fishing competition."

When a fisherman talks about fishing, his eyes shine like artificial diamonds, radiating a uniform, dazzling light.

"Knock knock knock~"

Director Liu didn't find it strange that someone was knocking on the door at this time. He said while packing his things, "Come in."

Ji Xiang was surprised to see Feng Yuqing walk in.

Feng Yuqing made a face at Ji Xiang, then put on a standard professional smile and said, "Director, may I bother you for a few minutes?"

Director Liu looked up and glanced at Feng Yuqing.

"Let's talk as we walk home after get off work." Although Feng Yuqing was at least a 90 out of 100 in looks, Director Liu was clearly not interested and did not intend to waste any time.

Moreover, having met countless salespeople, he could tell at a glance that Feng Yuqing was not a seasoned salesperson, so Director Liu was not interested.
