Emergency Doctor Mercenary Road: Chapter 91 Treating the villagers with compassion
Chapter 91: Treating the Villagers with Kindness and Kindness
August 11, 7pm, Heathrow Airport.
Lu Fei escorted Anna behind him and boarded the Boeing 777 charter plane, carrying a huge gun bag in his hand. Wearing sunglasses, she indifferently watched Anna chatting with officials of many charitable organizations and BBC reporters. Anna is well-rounded and caring from all directions, and everyone who talks to her is like a spring breeze. After a while, everyone sat down, the plane pulled up and rushed into the blue sky.
Lu Fei was sitting next to Anna in the first class cabin, and saw that she was carefully reading letters sent to her by some African children, and preparing to reply, or a few words, or half a piece of letterhead. .
Anna does not even have a secretary due to the various restrictions of the royal family, so she has to do everything herself.
He was a little blind, and helped her prepare the stationery and file it.
Anna glanced at him gratefully, and asked curiously, "Jack, you look like a gentleman, you look like a learned person, why did you do security? Don't you think it's a waste of your talent? ?"
"Maybe you don't believe me, I'm actually an excellent emergency doctor, but I'm not happy to work in a big hospital, I feel bored and tired, I like an exciting life, so I became a military doctor and slowly became a PMC. "
"I heard Telit tell you, can you help me check my body? I've been feeling headaches, irritability, nausea, and mild diarrhea recently. I vomited a lot, and I don't know what's wrong."
Lu Fei nodded, took out the electronic stethoscope from his bag, and carefully examined Anna. It took more than ten minutes to check carefully, and even secretly scanned her head and body.
"Anna, you are actually not sick physically, but mild depression. You can see it without taking the test questions."
"No wonder, the physical examination report a few months ago also showed that I was in good physical condition, healthier than Willie. Does depression need treatment? How to treat it." Anna said in surprise.
"Simply put, stay relaxed and happy, think more about beautiful things, get rid of unnecessary anxiety, and try not to worry about things that haven't happened. For example, think about your lovely son, and think that you are the greatest in the world. The dream lover of some mature men, I'm sorry, I started running the train with my mouth full again."
"No, you are flamboyant, or it is very real, it is not fake at all. I like your state. In fact, in addition to worrying about my own safety, I am also worried about emotional issues. But you are much younger than me, so I won't ask you. idea."
"Okay, Your Highness, by the way, you can lose weight, your body fat percentage is high, hehe."
"Hmph, you shouldn't mention her weight to a lady face to face, but then again, you're a doctor. Is there any way to lose weight? Those doctors don't have any specific way to do it except for me to exercise." spirit.
"I do know a way, it's effortless, I call it the ketogenic diet, in fact, to put it simply, eat more meat, basically no carbohydrates, plus some basic aerobic exercise, you should be able to lose weight quickly down."
"That's great, it's a surprise to ask you to help me, even if you haven't played your due role yet."
….
The two chatted late into the night, and Anna's mood improved a lot. Maybe it was because she hadn't opened her heart to others for many years, her emotions were vented, and she fell asleep. Lu Fei entered the training system to continue high-intensity training. He was convinced that investment would only pay off.
The next morning, after a long flight, we finally landed at the local airport. A group of people waited in the terminal to rest until noon and had some lunch. In the afternoon, I went straight to the "Mine Village" to inspect and comfort the children injured by the mines.
Angola is the country with the highest rate of stumps in the world. Due to the frequent civil wars, many arable land and roads in the country are densely covered with mines, causing many people to be bombed, killing and maiming countless people. In January 1997, Anna took a world-shattering photo in a cleared minefield in full-frame gear. Bringing the anti-landmine movement to the world's attention has greatly promoted the progress of this charity.
Their first stop was a group of people who went to the village most severely damaged by landmines to express their condolences to the local people. Last time, Anna promised the children whose legs were broken by the blast to come back to see them.
At 2:00 p.m., at the "Mine Village", Anna sat with the local children, chatted with them, played games, and distributed food.
Her face showed a look of innocence and pity from time to time.
At this time, several black aunts came in a hurry with a child, their faces full of anxiety. Carry them into the house past them. When Lu Fei looked up, he saw that the child was breathing very fast. He hurriedly made a come up gesture.
"Anna is short of breath. I am afraid that her life is in danger. Do you need me to give first aid?" Lu Fei asked urgently.
"Come on, I'll ask the officials to translate, you're a doctor, save him quickly." Anna got up and negotiated with the surrounding African officials.
The person carried it over, and Lu Fei saw that the child was about seven or eight years old, barefoot, panting desperately, with obvious swelling on his face. Someone translates the words of those aunts, he was bitten by a red ant, and then he will die. If he survives it, he will be fine, otherwise he will have to wait to die.
Lu Fei shook his head and asked the official to translate it to them. He is a doctor, so give him free treatment, no money, or let him go. The black aunt was overjoyed and told him to get treatment quickly. Lu Fei put on gloves, took out the first aid kit from the car, took out the laryngoscope, endotracheal tube and other small parts in the endotracheal intubation and quickly operated, and completed the endotracheal intubation 30 seconds later. Then let the black aunt on the side squeeze the breathing balloon to give the child air. The child was given an IV drip of chlorpheniramine, which is specially formulated to treat children and insect bites. He had already checked the information and knew that he was coming to Africa and brought some anti-allergy medicines with him.
Finally took a closer look at the child's feet, pressed his legs, cut open the blistered wound on the edge of the sole of the foot, squeezed out the residual poison of pus, cleaned it with iodophor, and then wrapped the wound with gauze.
Anna crouched beside Lu Fei, and after watching his entire operation, she was both fresh and curious.
"Jack, why is this kid unable to breathe after being bitten by an ant?"
"It was an ant of the genus Fire ant that bit him. I don't know if it was a red fire ant. After biting him, he would feel a burning pain like a fire, blister like a scald, and in severe cases, it would cause anaphylactic shock or even death. The children here have no shoes to wear. , so I'm often bitten by fire ants." Lu Fei sighed.
"Kakaka", the BBC reporter on the side took a photo of the two of them looking after the child.
"Since you have such a level of first aid, can you help other people in the village? It's also good to provide some emergency medical assistance. You can help me, okay?" Anna looked at him earnestly.
"Of course, as long as you don't leave. After all, my main task is to be in charge of your safety. You can also be my assistant. Of course, you have to wear gloves, goggles, and masks. AIDS and malaria are very common here." Lu Fei warned.
He took two simple first aid suits and medical gloves from the first aid kit for her to put on, and then helped her put on goggles and a K95 mask. Anna asked officials to inform the villagers that medical services and treatment were available here. Let them all come, Princess Anna is here to help everyone again, and won't charge everyone's money or anything.
The officials who organized the event were a little embarrassed, because the original schedule was for Anna to meet with the local chief executive and write some political articles, but then the time was too late. Who knows how many patients there are in this village.
Not long after, a group of villagers came with their families and their families, and Anna directed everyone to line up and come to see the doctor one by one.
The first patient was a 5-year-old girl. Her mother even said with gestures, which meant that the child had pain in the back for the past two days, and even vomited. He couldn't eat anything or pull it out. Seeing that she lost weight, she was in a hurry.
Although there is no medical examination equipment, Lu Fei quickly passed his scanning skills and understood that the child had kidney stones. He quickly gave her an intravenous drip of anti-inflammatory drugs, and gave her mother an oral anti-inflammatory drug for a week.
He thought about it, because of the high temperature all year round and the high alkalinity of water in Africa, the probability of getting stones is very high. This kind of situation should be very common. He explained the current state of health and the translator he followed, and asked people to organize adults and children with similar conditions. He explained simple treatment methods to everyone.
After the people gathered, he said something and asked the translator to say something, please remember the action, and let the villagers go back and do it.
"Most of you have kidney stones or urinary tract stones. The treatment method is very simple, that is, drink a lot of water, urinate a lot, and drink at least 3000 ml of water every day, which is about 8-10 glasses of water.
Insist on skipping rope every day, morning, noon and night. Before booing, put your feet on tiptoe, drop your heels heavily, do it several times before urinating, and persist for more than a month, most of the stones can be expelled from the urethra. "
Lu Fei said while doing the movements of skipping rope and tiptoeing down. Anna also followed and encouraged everyone to follow along. A group of villagers did it several times, and after listening to the translator say it a few times, everyone understood. Only then did Lu Fei return to his position to continue treating the villagers.
After a while, he discovered that many of the villagers here have a lot of anger, and they basically suffer from diseases such as stomach pain, red eyes, hepatitis, and mouth ulcers. He asked the translator to invite the village chief here, and asked him to arrange for everyone to drink dandelion or honeysuckle in water on a regular basis, which can reduce anger. Make sure to drink plenty of water and eat foods high in vitamin C, such as fruits and vitamin C tablets. No matter how barren Africa is, there are always dandelions.
After Lu Fei concentrated on teaching the prevention and treatment of common diseases, most of the villagers got cheap and feasible medical solutions. The next common cases are some of Lu Fei's can't help, such as hepatitis B, AIDS and other stubborn diseases.
Two hours later, the last villager with a leg cut by a thorn was brought up to him. The **** man, with blood dripping from the top of his right thigh, was probably injured a few hours ago. Lu Fei patiently took out the debris from the wound with tweezers, rinsed it back and forth with alcohol, helped him sew up the wound, and put on a bandage after disinfection.
Anna has been handing the instruments on the side. Although her movements are clumsy and slow, she is very serious. He is not afraid of the ferocious wound on the **** leg. Lu Fei didn't say it, but he admired it in his heart. The goddess of the family was born from a small noble, and after marrying as a princess, she wore brocade clothes and jade food, and her ten fingers did not touch the spring water. After these things, it seems that the Princess of Charity and the Princess of Civilians are really well-deserved.
It was getting dark, and the convoy waved goodbye to the villagers after leaving a lot of food and pure water. Under the grateful eyes of the villagers, Anna waved her hands frequently on the car window, and it took a long time to raise the window.
"Thanks to you today, you are a good doctor. It's a waste to let you protect me. You should help more people like today. You can save a lot of people. At least today I'm just a vase, not as good as you." Anna was grateful.
"Take it down, my dear Highness, this place in Africa is really not suitable for life, I have a girlfriend, but I dare not let my girlfriend and I stay here all the time. Besides, I am saving some people, and you will attract the attention of the society and bring With more funds and resources to help more people, your role is irreplaceable."
