Chapter 4 Diagnosis and Treatment

Seeing that Peng Yue was still suspicious, Dr. Zheng said: "Qu Renhuan's excellent medical skills are praised by the world. As a disciple, he will definitely not be bad. The general can keep him in the camp to treat the injured with me. People can do fake things, but medical skills cannot do fake things. You just need to try it out!"

This is a solution!

Peng Yue pondered for a moment, turned around and smiled, "Your master and disciple presented the secret medicine, and you have made great contributions. I didn't know your identity just now. Please forgive me for your offense!"

Xu Yan hurriedly bowed: "If you don't dare, you dare, the general is also responsible. You know!"

"That's good! Now the bandits in Shu are in chaos, and the officers and soldiers are chasing them everywhere. If you don't have a household registration, you can't move forward. It's better to stay in the military camp and wait for the general to return. I will report it truthfully. I think I will make proper arrangements for you!"

Xu Yan thought for a while and agreed: "Thank you for taking it in by General!"

"No need to be too polite. Many soldiers in the camp were injured. I'm afraid I'll have to bother my brother to treat them!"

"This is naturally. The boy admires the soldiers who bravely kill the enemy and must do his best!"

He did it as he said, and Peng Yue took him to the patient area, located on the west side of Daying.

Xu Yan first saw the hygiene situation in ancient military camps, which was used to describe it in three words - dirty and messy!

As soon as I entered the tent, I smelled a rotten stinking smell, mosquitoes and flies were flying in the air, and dark red blood was everywhere on the ground, and yellow vomit. The injured soldiers squeezed into the narrow and dim tent, all of them were pale and angry.

Not long after Xu Yan entered, he was fumigated and pinched his nose and said, "This is how you settle the injured?"

Dr. Zheng asked in confusion: "Is there anything wrong?"

"Of course it's not appropriate! The injured soldier is already weak, and now he is in such an environment and is more likely to get infected with diseases!"

“What is infection?”

"It means to be sick! People will get sick after eating rotten things and drinking unclean water. Similarly, in addition to eating and drinking, people also have to breathe. If they inhale unclean air, they will also get sick!"

"This..." Dr. Zheng was stunned. This was the first time he heard this statement.

"The weather in spring and summer is changing, and it is the peak period of virus transmission. So many injuries are crowded together, and various diseases are cross-infected, which is easy to form an epidemic, so it will be troublesome!"

As soon as he heard about the plague, Peng Yue immediately became nervous. As a soldier, he naturally knew the terrible plague and asked hurriedly: "What should I do?"

"Reestablish the medical area, place the patients in different areas according to different causes, and then remove mosquitoes and flies and treat them one by one!"

Peng Yue finally chose to believe Xu Yan. Although Dr. Zheng felt it was a bit exaggerated, he was not afraid of ten thousand, but he was afraid of it.

At the location chosen by Xu Yan, a team of soldiers urgently set up a tent. It is located on the edge of the military camp and the surrounding terrain is open, which can ventilate and dissipate well.

There were five doctors in the military camp, plus Xu Yan and six of them. They examined the more than 100 injured one by one, assigned the patients according to different diseases, and found mugwort and scattered grass to ignite and disperse mosquitoes and flies.

Among them, the most soldiers were traumatized by swords, followed by typhoid fever, and diarrhea and vomiting.

Baibao Dan and Huli San are a good medicine for treating trauma. As for typhoid fever, taking it with cinnamon twig, peony, licorice, ginger, etc. can drive away cold and relieve the disease.

Finally, diarrhea and vomiting should be caused by eating unclean things. First, clear the stomach and intestines, and then take Wen Bu Decoction to promote blood circulation.

Seeing Xu Yan's orderly diagnosis and treatment, Dr. Zheng couldn't help but nod.

The most difficult thing among patients is a soldier who missed the best treatment time. Because of ankle injury, it caused inflammation and necrosis, rotting wounds, and dark spots below the knees.

This is a symptom of acral necrosis and an amputation is required.

Xu Yan talked about the treatment method, and Dr. Zheng said: "I have read the cases of amputation in medical books to survive, but I have never seen it with my own eyes. Amputation is easy, but it can cause heavy bleeding. If you are not careful, you will have life worries!"

"I naturally know this point. I have also asked my teacher. My teacher said that the method of wrapping soft silk can be used, that is, wrapping soft silk strips on the joints at the end of the black, gradually tightening, blocking the passage of qi and blood, and then cutting them with a sharp knife according to the joints. After the operation, the wound can be soaked in licorice warm soup to stop the bleeding."

"After three days later, the soft silk is gradually relaxed to unblock the blood vessels, apply red and black cream to relieve pain. It can be healed at least one month or two months!"

Dr. Zheng was very surprised and asked for advice carefully. Xu Yan did not hide his personal information and explained in detail.

Peng Yue asked: "How sure are you?"

Xu Yan shook his head: "Boy has never done it, he only knows the steps. Doctor Zheng will probably need to do it in real action! As for the grasp, the boy cannot guarantee it, but one thing is certain. If it is not treated as soon as possible, the dark spots will spread upwards, and it will not be a leg at that time!"

Peng Yue looked at Dr. Zheng, who nodded and said, "It's true!"

Of course, I have to agree to amputation, so all three of them looked at the soldiers.

The soldier heard it from beginning to end, and although he was afraid, he knew that long pain was better than short pain. He gritted his teeth and said, "You two just do it. No matter what the result is, the villain will not complain!"

Peng Yue patted his shoulder and said, "My Yulin Army never abandons brothers. If there is any case, your wife, children and parents will be properly placed!"

The soldier's eyes turned red and bowed, "Thank you General!"

Of course, surgery is not something that can be done by doing. Many preparations are required in advance, such as the alcohol used for disinfection - Xu Yan drew a drawing and asked Peng Yue to call the carpenters in the camp to use cork to make condensing and ventilation pipes. Although the purity of the distilled alcohol does not meet the standards of later generations, it can barely be used.

Facing Dr. Zheng's inquiry, Xu Yan couldn't explain, so he could only use the master to push the jar, saying that it was a secret recipe passed down by ancestral wine, and cleaning the wound with strong liquor can reduce inflammation.

In addition, licorice warm soup is needed, which requires a lot of medicinal materials and takes time to prepare, so the operation is scheduled for tomorrow.

Peng Yue had already believed in Dr. Xu Yan's identity at this time and was more polite to him. After seeing all the patients, he asked someone to prepare meals and invited the two to have a meal in the camp.

The soldiers brought the food, and the staple food was noodle cake. Although it was steamed, it was still difficult to bite it. The dishes were steamed and meat soup.

Xu Yan tasted the meat soup, which was bitter and astringent. He tried to hold it up and didn't vomit it out.

Sure enough, I shouldn’t have expected a big pot meal!

"What's wrong?" Peng Yue asked.

"The boy is used to eating the food he cooks, and it is difficult to change his words for a while. General Peng, can he borrow the kitchen to use it?"

"You can cook?"

"When I was living in seclusion in the mountains, I was always a kid who cooked rice. I dare not say it was delicious in the world, but it was indeed better than most people!"
