Chapter 335 Free Clinic
“Go back and wash your hands with warm water, dry them with a clean cloth, and then apply this ointment twice a day, once in the morning and once in the evening.< br>
Do you remember?”
Li Sanniang said to the girl who was holding a little child with frostbite in her arms. When she nodded, she took a stick from the table. Yu took the medicine's wooden sign with a red label on it and gave it to her.
As soon as the person in front left, the person behind followed closely.
The woman sat down with a little girl of seven or eight years old, and Li Sanniang asked: "Who is feeling unwell?"
Li Sanniang thought that the woman was also bringing a child with chilblains to see a doctor. , because the temperature has dropped sharply in recent days and it has snowed again, the wealthy households in the city are lucky enough to always be able to buy charcoal or firewood for fire.
But poor households don’t even have enough to eat, so how can they have money to buy fuel for heating?
So, the first few people who came to see the doctor were children with chilblains.
After all, in such weather, children have low resistance and no adults can resist freezing.
However, the Imperial Medical Office is experienced, and they have prepared a lot of frostbite ointment. Li Sanniang only needs to prescribe medicine according to age and wound size.
"Female doctor, there is something growing on my baby's face. Can you take a look and see if it can be removed?"
Li Sanniang was surprised. She didn't expect to meet such a doctor, but He didn't say much, just said: "Let me raise the baby's head to see what's wrong?"
After hearing this, the little girl hesitated and refused to raise her head, still lowering her head and looking angry. The woman raised her hand and slapped the little girl on the back.
“It’s good for you, I brought you here with my face licked, but you are shy again!
He quickly raised his head and showed it to the female doctor. People at No. 180 were waiting behind him, so don't waste time here. "
Li Sanniang was startled by the loud slap, and quickly said: "Oh, don't hit the child, no, it's the same when I walk over and take a look. "
Li Sanniang stood up as she spoke, stood up from behind the consultation table, walked to the little girl and squatted down, "Come, raise your head and show me, let me see what's going on. ? "
The little girl slowly raised her head after listening to Li Sanniang's soft question.
Then Li Sanniang saw a small hole about the size of a baby's hand from the left forehead to the temple. The dark black birthmark
Then there was the little girl's stubborn eyes filled with tears, which made Li Sanniang feel soft-hearted.
"Female doctor, are you the female doctor who opened the school?
I know you. The most knowledgeable lady in my alley said that you have the ability. You are the best among us girls. It's great.
Please show me, can it be cured?"
"I want to touch it, don't be afraid," Li Sanniang said softly to the little girl.
"Oh, what are you afraid of? Just touch her, female doctor."
The woman watched Li Sanniang wash her hands with cold water in the basin next to her, and then wiped them dry before touching her.
Such a performance made the woman feel that it was a good thing for the female doctor not to care about anything and be so clean.
Li Sanniang touched it gently a few times and opened the X-ray eye again. I have to say that this plug-in is really easy to use.
"It can be cured, but it's a bit complicated. I'll give you a sign. You go and wait in the tent nearby. When the boss takes a break at noon, I will explain it to you in detail when I have time."
When Li Sanniang said it could be cured, the little girl's eyes shone. This was the only one who said it could be cured after the woman had taken her to see many doctors since she was a child.
After taking the green sign and giving it to them, Li Sanniang called out the next person.
"You, Aye, need a good rest due to the cold. I gave you a prescription, took it over there to get the medicine, and hurried home to drink it, have a good sleep, and rest. If you still don’t feel better in three days, just come to me while I’m still here.”
“Thank you so much, doctor.” After walking into his own Aye, the young man next to him took the red-headed stick given by Li Sanniang and bowed before leaving.
This free clinic is open for half a month, aiming to enable poor people to get through the cold winter by treating those who are sick and taking medicine when they need it.
Otherwise, every year after winter and when spring comes, a large number of poor people die.
Because Emperor Wu established the rule of two free clinics a year a few years ago, it really allowed a lot of people to live until the beginning of spring.
In this regard, this is the routine practice of the Imperial Medical Office, and it is also included in the assessment of the Medical Alliance.
Chang'an city is such a node. In other places in the Tang Dynasty, the local government arranges the time by itself, but most of them are during the hottest season of summer and the coming of winter.
As noon approached, the day got really cold, with snowflakes actually falling.
I heard the policeman walking back and forth beating a small gong and shouting loudly, "At noon, the clinic will be closed for a rest, and the clinic will start at noon."
Qili also ran over and said that it was The Imperial Medical Office informed everyone to go to the restaurant facing the street to have lunch.
Li Sanniang wrote a prescription for the girl who was watching and gave her a red sign. Then she put away the pen and ink, got up and walked to the consultation table of Tang Mingyue, the high-ranking doctor.
Walking along the way, Li Sanniang had an idea.
I wonder if it was because Li Sanniang was wearing red today, but 90% of the people Li Sanniang saw this morning were girls and children.
When I walked over this time, I saw that all the other doctors were men. There were very few women. They were probably all assigned to Li Sanniang.
"Doctor Li, how are you?"
Faced with Manager Gao's inquiry, Li Sanniang said: "Master Gao, they are all common diseases, and occasionally one or two are It’s a rare disease.
Since most of the people who come to my place are girls, I was wondering if I could add a tent so that I can more conveniently treat people.
It was very cold today, and I was a girl. It was not okay to lift my clothes to check on the street. "
Before Manager Gao could answer, Li Sanniang heard a familiar voice behind her.
"What Li Sanniang said makes sense. I'll say hello to the manager later. Let's see if we can add tents for everyone. After all, it's starting to snow today. Who knows if it will be heavy. "
Turning around, Li Sanniang saw Xu Jingzhen, who still looked like an unparalleled true gentleman, wearing a round-neck official robe and a black official hat.
"Xu Jingzhen Mr. Sanlang, I haven’t seen you for a long time, Mr. Xu Sanlang is still as charming as ever. ”
Xu Jingzhen looked at Li Sanniang, who was wearing a bright red dress and had an upright face. She was not inferior to others when standing beside a group of men. She smiled and replied: "Ms. Li Sanniang, I haven't seen you for a long time. Sanniang still has the same style." "
After saying a word, Xu Jingzhen pointed at a dozen teams behind him who looked like they were all from the Western Regions and said: "I have official duties, so I have to lead these people to find a doctor. "
Xu Jingzhen, who bowed and left, did not arouse Li Sanniang's thoughts. However, the familiarity between the two made Director Gao and others look puzzled, especially the winking between Tang Mingyue and Qili, which made Li Sanniang I find it a bit funny.
"We met by chance. There's nothing to say. You two should be more serious.
Qili doesn't want to eat candies anymore and wants to tease me."
Qili quickly bowed and begged for mercy, "It's snowing heavily. Come on, I'll lead the way. I heard that the restaurant just around the corner was rented by the big chamber of commerce in Shengpingfang.
Let's go quickly. Don’t go too late, there are no seats available.”
