  Chapter 125 Free clinic on-site surgery

   "Don't worry, don't worry, listen to me, this is a minor operation, I just need to make a small incision in the eyelid abscess, clean out the pus and tissue inside, and then sew a few stitches and it will be fine."

   With Chen Qi's explanation, the patients and their family members understood.

   "Then doctor, you can do the surgery. Tell us how much you want, and we will go to raise money right away."

   "You don't need money, you are lucky, today we are a free clinic."

   "Hey, no money, what a great doctor!"

   "Yes, yes, the doctors in the People's Hospital have good medical ethics, unlike the doctors in the commune health centers, who have poor attitudes and even worse standards."

   "That's it!"

  The doctors in the commune health center next to them all had black lines on their faces. If there were not too many people, they would have to scold their mothers.

  Chen Qi waved at Lan Lijuan: "Lijuan, come here and be my assistant."

  Lan Lijuan has already practiced in internal medicine, and Chen Qi was going to rotate in internal medicine, but the surgery side refused to let him go. The teachers who teach are indispensable for this free labor, so they stayed.

   "Hey, here we come."

  The two have cooperated very tacitly now. Several times in the emergency operation in the middle of the night, when no one was watching, it was Chen Qi who performed the surgery and Lan Lijuan as the assistant. (Resolutely do not perform surgery during the day)

  Lan Lijuan ran over to take a look, and it was a bit strange to see these surgical instruments:

   "Squad Leader Chen, where did you get these instruments? Have you sterilized them?"

   "It's all clean, don't worry about using it, I brought it from the hospital when I came out, and I greeted the head nurse in the operating room."

  Lan Lijuan didn't suspect anything, so she put on gloves with Chen Qi, arranged the instruments and put on the surgical needle and thread.

  Chen Qi didn't talk nonsense, after the disinfection, he showed the scalpel and was about to start.

  People in the mountains heard that a doctor was going to perform an operation here, so they surrounded the three floors inside and outside to watch the excitement, as if the Shao Opera troupe was performing.

  The doctors in the commune health centers were close to the water, and they surrounded the innermost circle, ready to watch how the stye operation was performed.

I saw Chen Qi cut lightly with the tip of the scalpel, and the pus flowed out immediately. Lan Lijuan immediately handed him a piece of sterile gauze and a camera to let him remove the pus and tissue. The two cooperated tacit agreement.

  Chen Qi also has the heart to teach these mountain doctors.

  He has a good relationship with the doctors in the Xingtang Commune Health Center. He knows how difficult it is for rural doctors. He usually has no opportunity for advanced training. The level of medical treatment depends on the level of the master.

"You guys are optimistic. The difficulty of this eyelid abscess surgery is not high. There are two difficulties. One is that the disinfection work must be done well to prevent secondary infection, so as to prevent the inflammation from spreading to the orbit and brain, otherwise it will cause spongy Sinus phlebitis, meningitis, can be life-threatening.

The second difficulty is suturing. See, the sutures are generally made of **** needles, and the thread size is 5/0-10/0. Of course, you can also choose 7 or 8 sutures. You must not use thick needles. or thick lines. "

   While introducing, Chen Qi skillfully sewed two stitches quickly on the incision.

   "Oh~~~~~"

  The doctors in this group of health centers nodded one after another, with a look of sudden realization, as if they understood everything.

  In fact, Chen Qi understands that at most, his brain can do it, but his hands can't. He still won't do similar surgery next time.

   "Sister, the operation is over, you are very brave, you didn't cry out for pain, go back and take some anti-inflammatory drugs, take this alcohol cotton, and disinfect it every day. Come back in 5 days, and I will remove the stitches for you."

   "Is that all right?"

  Patients and family members were very surprised, followed by a mouthful of thanks and good words, and the patients behind couldn't wait.

"Get out of the way, it's my turn, doctor, look, what is this thing of mine? I had it last year, and now it's getting bigger and bigger. You see, it's not easy for me to bend my hands, and it's very troublesome to do farm work. .”

   The person who spoke was a middle-aged man. He stretched out his wrist, and there was a quail egg-sized bump in the skin on the inner side of the wrist.

  Chen Qi felt a round mass with a smooth shape and clear boundaries. The skin on the surface could be pushed without adhesion.

  He pressed hard: "Does it hurt?"

  The patient nodded: "It hurts a bit, but it's not particularly painful. Doctor, what is this? Does it matter?"

   "This is called a ganglion cyst. You don't know what causes it, but it's easy to treat. You just need a small operation to cut it off."

   "Let's cut it off, doctor, tell me how much it is, and I'll let my mother-in-law get it together."

  The people in the mountains are bold, and they don’t ask the reason, the process, or the price.

   What can Chen Qi say? It was said to be free just now, of course it can only be free to the end.

   "Brother, don't charge money, just help us get a few pheasants and hares later, and let us improve our food."

  If you ask a mountain person for money, his family can spend a few dollars to cover the sky, but if you say what kind of game you want, it’s just a matter of one sentence.

   "Okay, doctor, don't worry, come to our crossroads, and I promise to make your mouth full before going back."

  As soon as the words came out, the onlookers also booed one after another: "That's right, doctors, don't worry, there's nothing else, I promise you can eat as much wild game as you want?"

   (The pheasants and hares in the mountain are starting to tremble)

  Chen Qi is not too polite, anyway, he has paid labor and medicine, and it is not too much to get some cheap game.

   "Lijuan, get ready the instruments for cystectomy, I'll give anesthesia first."

  Lan Lijuan nodded, quickly opened the disinfection bag, and took out all the medical instruments needed for the operation, but she had a little doubt in her heart. It seemed that the quality and materials of the surgical instruments seemed to be more refined and smoother this time.

  How did she know that these are all medical devices from decades later.

  Chen Qi injected a circle of lidocaine around the patient's cyst. After the anesthesia took effect, he took out his own scalpel and made a quick cut on the surface, and the blood flowed out all at once.

  People around looked back and felt chills, thinking that these doctors are really "killing without batting an eye", so cruel that they dare to cut human flesh.

  Many female comrades covered their eyes with their hands in fright after seeing it, feeling that it was too cruel.

  Chen Qi didn't care what the people around him were talking about, but he clamped it with a hemostat, and the bleeding points were immediately controlled.

  Then he quickly separated the whole cyst with tissue forceps, put it on a bowl, sterilized it and sewed needles, and the whole operation was quickly resolved in less than 15 minutes, and the people around were stunned.

   "Doctor, is this all right? Why doesn't it hurt?"

   "You said it didn't hurt. Didn't you give you anesthesia?"

   "Okay, okay, thank you so much, what a miracle doctor, you solved my big trouble for two years in such a short time, thank you so much."

   "Stop thanking, hurry up and get us some game."
