Chapter 9 Wound infection
"Father, you don't have to worry about money! As long as our family is doing well, we will definitely have money!" Lin Xiaowu was thinking while comforting her father.

If you only farm at home, you will not earn much money at all. If the harvest is not good, you may not have enough food for a year, and you will be tired and hard.

But if I can find a job, with a monthly salary of tens of dollars, and a stable income, I can guarantee my family's expenses.

She thought of the two booklets rewarded by the system, and thought that maybe finding a job was really achievable.

After comforting her father for a while, she left when she saw his father lying down peacefully, and then went back to the house early to sleep by herself.

Taking advantage of this spare time, she began to study the theoretical knowledge of textile machines seriously.

The next morning.

Lin Xiaowu was woken up by the third sister when she was still asleep, "Five, wake up, dad has been crying about leg pain!"

She got up from the bed in a jerk, and ran to her father's room in a hurry.

The fourth sister was wiping his father's forehead with a wet towel to cool down.

And the father was lying on the bed, talking in a daze, "It hurts, it hurts..." His face was still slightly twitching.

When I touched my father's forehead, it was hot.

"Just now I got up to relieve myself, and when I heard the sound of my father's room, I came in to have a look. Only then did I find that my father had a fever, and he refused to answer when I called him. As soon as I got scared, I called my third sister to come and have a look." Lin Xiaoxiang said while crying with.

"I've never seen a time when you weren't afraid! Cry and cry, you know how to cry, what's the use of crying?" The second brother stood aside anxiously, seeing the fourth sister crying like this, couldn't help but say a few words.

Lin Xiaowu didn't care about these things at all at the moment, what she was worried about happened, "The wound is probably infected! Second brother, hurry up, send dad to the hospital!"

Lin Xiaohu agreed, carried his father on his back and walked out.

The fourth sister stayed to watch the house, Lin Xiaowu and the third sister went to the neighbor's house to borrow an ox cart, and the four of them headed straight to the town in the dark night.

When we arrived at the hospital in town, the sun had just risen.

Lin Xiaohu rushed into the hospital with his father on his back, because his father's injury was serious, the doctor didn't dare to delay, and immediately pushed into the consulting room to check his condition.

The three brothers and sisters waited anxiously outside.

After a while, the doctor came out and asked the three of them, "Are you Lin Ruyi's family?"

"Yes, we are! How is my father?" Lin Xiaowu agreed, her face full of worry.

"His condition is very bad. The wound has been seriously infected. Amputation must be performed as soon as possible. Otherwise, the infection will spread and his life will be in danger. Go back and prepare money. The sooner the operation, the better!" the doctor said. Hastily left.

"Amputation...how did this happen?" Lin Xiaohong's tears couldn't stop flowing, her eyes were loose, as if she saw her father walking on one leg while leaning on a cane.

"Damn it! How did this barefoot doctor treat the disease? Didn't he say that seven days of anti-inflammatory injections would cure him? Why did the injections get worse?" Lin Xiaohu felt that the doctor delayed his father's treatment.

"But Dad didn't get the injections consecutively. The second time was a day late..." Lin Xiaohong squatted on the ground sadly, she blamed herself very much. If she had tried to find a doctor that day, maybe her father would not have been like this, " It's all my fault, even if I borrowed money that night, I should have invited the doctor..."

"According to what you said, I am the one who should blame myself. I shouldn't...go..." Lin Xiaohu also fell into self-blame.

"It's probably not because of the one-day delay in the anti-inflammatory injection. It's probably because the previous treatment is not right. Don't rush to blame yourself here. I'll go to the doctor and ask for clarification!"

After Lin Xiaowu finished speaking, she chased after the doctor in the direction she left.

The second brother was worried and followed suit.

The doctor was prescribing a prescription for Lin Ruyi. Knowing their intentions, he handed the prescription to the nurse and told her to quickly dispense the medicine for treatment.

"Doctor, how could my father's leg be infected so badly? It was just a bit of pus on the broken skin yesterday." Lin Xiaowu asked.

"His wound was infected with an anaerobic bacterium. The original organism was Clostridium tetani. His leg should have been injured by a metal object, right? Tetanus will not show symptoms immediately after infection. The incubation period is 3-21 days. The infected wound has no obvious signs of inflammation or infection and even seems to have healed, so it is not easy to attract your attention." The doctor answered them patiently.

"Tetanus..." Lin Xiaowu said to herself, her father's amputation might save his life, but without a leg, she couldn't accept the result...

"Doctor, my father is only in his 30s. If he loses a leg, what will he do for the rest of his life? Is there no other way?" Lin Xiaohu asked.

"Amputation is currently the best treatment option, your family members should make a decision as soon as possible!" The doctor issued an ultimatum.

"Doctor, my father's leg can't be amputated, you must have a way, right?" Lin Xiaowu didn't believe it, she didn't believe in fate!She stood up and grabbed the doctor's arm nervously, almost kneeling on the ground, "My father has worked hard for half her life, we children can't just watch him lose a leg like this, as long as we can keep his leg, you let us Do anything!"

The doctor looked at the tearful Lin Xiaowu, and immediately felt pity, "I understand your feelings, but our hospital really has no other treatment plan."

"You mean, is there someone who can cure my father's leg injury? Please give me some pointers!" Lin Xiaowu heard the doctor's hesitation, as if she saw hope.

Lin Xiaohu came over excitedly when he heard his younger sister asking, "Doctor, please, just tell us!"

The doctor hesitated for a while, but refused to speak.

It was the nurse who had just left with the prescription and heard their conversation when she came back, and whispered: "I heard that there is a genius doctor named Jiang in Jishitang who specializes in treating various difficult and miscellaneous diseases. If you can find him, come and show it to your father." Look, maybe you can save your leg. But this miracle doctor Jiang is very mysterious, your father's situation is not optimistic, and you don't have much time left, so you may not be able to find him."

"I've only heard about this genius doctor Jiang. If he really has the ability to bring the dead back to life, he is really a legend in the medical world." The doctor couldn't help but sigh.

"How much time do we have, doctor?" Lin Xiaowu had already made up her mind.

"Three days, up to three days! If there is no other way, amputation must be performed." The doctor said.

Lin Xiaowu thanked the doctors and nurses, and then signaled her second brother to go out.

The two brothers and sisters had a tacit understanding, and they walked to Jishitang together by appointment, and they didn't want to waste another moment.

Jishitang is located in the northernmost part of Chuanyin Town. It is built on the opposite side of the mountain with Huichuntang. There is an endless stream of people going to see a doctor every day, which is comparable to a second downtown.

There are three doctors in Jishitang who can be called miraculous doctors. They sit in the hall to see the doctor and prescribe medicine for the patient.With the exception of Miracle Doctor Jiang, he came to Jishitang without any rules, and he seemed to follow his own whims, so there was a rumor in Jishitang that it was only by fate that he could be seen by Miracle Doctor Jiang.

So this trip, Lin Xiaowu had already expected the result.

But she was not reconciled, so she pestered a doctor Fang who was sitting in the hall, hoping that he would tell the whereabouts of Doctor Jiang, even if it was just a small clue.

Otherwise, Lin Xiaowu would follow Miracle Doctor Fang wherever he went.

Later, Miracle Doctor Fang couldn't take it anymore, so he had to show her a bright way.
