When the Doctor Uses A Hack

Chapter 831: Chapter 832: The Real Culprit Is Found

The surgery didn’t take very long, just over an hour.

After leaving the operating room, Zhu Hanliang and his wife quickly stood up—they had been waiting for this moment for a long time!

Even for this seasoned business veteran, who had been battling in the commercial world for over a decade or two, he felt timid at this moment.

No one can remain indifferent when facing the life of a loved one.

The door to the operating room, having witnessed the world’s joy, anger, sorrow, and happiness, was carrying more and more emotional weight.

Every day, countless people gaze at it with tears, and countless others pray in front of it.

“Doctor Chen… how did it go? The surgery was a success, right?” Zhu Hanliang seemed to be trying to convince himself.

Chen Cang nodded, “Yes, the surgery was very successful!”

Chen Cang’s words made the couple embrace each other tightly.

Excitement, tears, and unspoken gratitude.

With a smile, Chen Cang said, “For the next two days, we need to monitor closely. As it stands, the patient’s surgery was very successful, but the next 48 hours are still critical. If all goes well, and the heart shows no abnormalities, then there should be no problem!”

Hearing Chen Cang’s words, Zhu Hanliang nodded excitedly!

For the sake of their child’s illness, they had traveled everywhere—to Hong Kong, Singapore, Los Angeles, New York…

And unexpectedly, they found salvation at this emergency center.

Who could have imagined this?

Zhu Hanliang said excitedly, “Thank you, Doctor Chen, thank you, Director Xu. When my child is discharged, I will donate a million to our hospital!”

…

…

Chen Cang returned to the ward. Since he was on night shift today, he naturally couldn’t rest, but he would be able to rest for a day tomorrow.

After getting organized, Chen Cang stood up and went to the monitoring room.

There, a little girl who had lost her nose was waiting for him.

Chen Cang still hadn’t figured out what exactly had caused the little girl’s severe infection.

For doctors, it often wasn’t just about curing the current symptoms, but also finding the cause of the disease!

These things are all very important.

After entering the monitoring room, Yang Qing eagerly stood up, “Doctor Chen, you’re here!”

Yang Qing admired Chen Cang greatly!

The fever that other hospitals couldn’t control for ten days had now been brought under control here!

That made her happier than anything!

Chen Cang nodded, and at that moment, the nurse from the monitoring room quickly got up and followed.

Chen Cang turned and asked, “How’s the temperature today?”

The nurse from the monitoring room quickly took out the medical record book, which had all the records!

The charges in the monitoring room were higher than outside because they had to continuously monitor a critical patient’s life signs, among other factors…

There were nurses watching 24 hours a day to prevent any accidents.

It was a transition between the general ward and the intensive care unit.

The nurse hurriedly said, “6 a.m. temperature: 37.7 degrees Celsius, 9 a.m. 37.1 degrees Celsius… 3 p.m. was 37.2 degrees Celsius.”

Hearing these temperatures, Chen Cang also breathed a sigh of relief!

This indicated that the infection was actually under control.

Infection patients who can’t keep their temperature down, can’t control the infection, that’s a troublesome issue.

Yang Qing said, “Today, the child’s appetite is much better, she said her head doesn’t hurt anymore, and she’s feeling a lot better overall.”

Chen Cang nodded, “Let’s do an ultrasound re-examination, I want to see how the spleen is now.”

The little girl had a classic case of multiple splenic abscesses.

The nurse stood up to call the ultrasound doctor, and soon the bed was wheeled over.

“Doctor Chen, the multiple abscesses in the spleen are gradually improving, it looks better than yesterday’s images.”

Chen Cang nodded, the treatment continued.

And at this time, the little girl said to her mother, “Mommy, I have a pimple at the corner of my mouth!”

Yang Qing quickly said, “Don’t touch it, I’ll squeeze it out for you!”

The little girl gave a sound of acknowledgment.

“Doctor Uncle, when can I be discharged?”

Chen Cang heard this and immediately said with a smile, “Soon, once you feel comfortable everywhere, we can get you discharged.”

Upon hearing this, the girl let out a sigh, “I just feel uncomfortable in my heart now.”

“I really want to go to school… I haven’t been to school in two months…”

“But, with my current appearance, I am sure to scare everyone if I go!”

Yang Qing quickly tried to console her, “Don’t worry, Mom will take you for cosmetic surgery, and your dad is already making arrangements. Besides, I’ve heard he’s found the world’s best plastic surgeon. When the time comes, she’ll make you pretty and beautiful again, be a good girl!”

After comforting her for a while, Chen Cang was about to leave when he suddenly heard the little girl say something.

“Mom, my nose won’t get any pimples now, because… because I don’t even have a nose anymore!”

That sentence was quite heartbreaking, but to Chen Cang, it sounded like a thunderclap in his ears!

Chen Cang immediately turned around and urgently asked, “Did the child often get pimples on her nose before?”

The little girl nodded, “Yes… Whenever I got heated up, pimples would pop up on my nose, and my mom would squeeze them.”

Chen Cang’s brow immediately furrowed, and he quickly asked, “Two months ago, during the child’s use of steroids, did anyone squeeze pimples on her nose?”

Yang Qing was shocked!

At that moment, a man also hurriedly ran in.

Seeing her father come in, the girl eagerly said, “Daddy, you’re here? Did you find someone to fix my nose?”

The man’s heart softened, “Don’t worry, baby, your daddy has already asked someone to find the best plastic surgeon for you. We’ll have news tonight!”

Chen Cang now was not concerned about this but quickly pressed on, “During the period of steroid usage, were pimples on the child’s nose frequently squeezed?”

The father of the little girl nodded, “Yes, that’s right, my wife would often do that.”

With that statement!

Chen Cang suddenly had a moment of realization!

He quickly said, “Perhaps we’ve found the cause of the illness!”

Yang Qing and her husband immediately focused on Chen Cang, “What do you mean?”

Chen Cang sighed with regret, “It’s likely related to your living habits!

During the use of steroids, the child’s immune system was very low, and the bacteria from the nose pimples happened to be drug-resistant bacteria. Squeezing the pimples allowed the drug-resistant bacteria to enter the bloodstream, leading to hematogenous dissemination, and since the spleen has abundant blood supply, it caused the spleen to develop multiple abscesses!”

“That’s the cause of the child’s infection! Thank goodness it didn’t reach the skull and cause a brain abscess; otherwise, the problem could have been really serious!”

These words left Yang Qing speechless.

Before Chen Cang could finish, Yang Qing began to cry, large tears falling constantly, “I’m sorry, baby, it’s all Mommy’s fault… it’s all my fault!”

“It’s all my mistake, I heard people say that pimples go away faster if they’re squeezed out, that it’s just pus and getting rid of the pus would make it better… It’s all my fault!”

“Now that you mention it, Doctor, I remember, at that time Tian Tian kept complaining about the pain, and I thought the pimple wasn’t healing, so I squeezed it again, who would have thought… it would lead to this.”

Indeed, nobody had paid attention to this matter.

No one would have thought that a pimple could cause a severe infection.

Chen Cang couldn’t help but shake his head; she really was lucky!

Why would Chen Cang say that?

Because the nose belongs to the “danger triangle” of the face, which is the triangle area formed between the external nostrils and the upper lip!

Here, the facial vein communicates with the cavernous sinus inside the skull through the ophthalmic veins above and below the eye, and since the facial vein branches have no valves, the blood can flow up and down.

If inflammation in this triangle is poorly managed, it can easily spread to the inside of the skull and cause intracranial infections, leading to serious complications, or even death.

Therefore, when there is a boil at the vestibule of the nose or on the upper lip, it’s crucial not to squeeze it.

This little girl could only be said to be lucky!

Because after the bacteria entered the bloodstream, they only caused the spleen to develop multiple abscesses and did not cause intracranial abscesses, liver abscesses, or other complications, so the prognosis was still good.

After Chen Cang finished explaining, Yang Qing fell silent!

All of this had been caused by herself.

At that moment, the little girl, seeing her mother cry like a rainstorm, quickly said, “Mommy… don’t cry, actually my original nose wasn’t that pretty… let’s just think of it as getting a new nose…”
