Chapter 78 The Harm of Excessive Calcium Supplementation

Not long after Xie Guiqiu left, the peak hours of buying medicine and seeing a doctor in the afternoon of the small clinic started again.

However, trauma patients have not been welcomed, not to mention cutting tumors and pulling out abscesses, and there are not even patients with cuts, bruises, or superficial sutures.

Headache and brain fever, indigestion, diarrhea, high blood pressure, skin ringworm... are all minor problems.

Hypertensive patients measure their blood pressure and then buy two bottles of antihypertensive drugs.

Some simply measure blood pressure and do not buy medicines, because they have medical insurance, and they are not reimbursed for medicines bought in Sunshine Clinic.

Going to designated pharmacies and health service stations to get medicines can be reimbursed, and it costs almost nothing.

It would be great if the Sunshine Clinic could obtain the qualification for centralized procurement.

Because as long as you enter the centralized procurement platform, you will basically get the designated medical insurance.

When the time comes, Boss Zhao will not dare to come within 200 meters of the Sunshine Clinic when he comes back from his heart attack.Nothing else, the main fear is that he will see the dazzling metal plate of medical insurance, and then be stimulated to have a heart attack again.

He has been running a clinic for more than 20 years, but he has never obtained this qualification.

Including the Golden Chamber Clinic, which is rumored to have a background relationship, also failed to obtain the designated medical insurance qualifications.One can imagine the difficulty.

Busy until 05:30 in the afternoon, there is still an endless stream of customers.

It's not the kind that swarms in.

Just one or two every now and then.

There are those who see a doctor and those who buy medicine.

Seeing that the number of health medicines and tonics in the counter continued to decrease, Li Jingsheng was indescribably happy.

The banknotes are constantly coming in, and any boss will be happy.

"Sister Tang, go pick up the child first! I'm afraid I'll have to ask you to work overtime later."

Li Jingsheng couldn't do it alone.

"Row!"

Tang Ping didn't change her clothes, she just put on a thin coat and left in a hurry.

Li Jingsheng was sweating profusely as he had to diagnose patients and take care of customers who wanted to buy health medicines and tonics by himself.

It's all money, so I'm naturally reluctant to let the customer go if I don't greet them in time.

"Doctor, do you have any calcium supplements for your child?"

A middle-aged woman holding a handbag with two ears asked.

"Yes, please wait for me for 2 minutes. I will prescribe the cold medicine for this gentleman first, and then I will ask you about your needs in detail. Calcium supplements, the elderly are not so particular about them, and they must be taken rigorously and scientifically for children. Otherwise, the child's bone line will be closed prematurely, and it will be difficult to grow taller."

Li Jingsheng didn't completely frighten the lady.

It is really not possible to over-supplement calcium, otherwise it will have the opposite effect.

Under normal circumstances, boys over the age of 18 can even grow a little taller, and girls generally have their height gradually fixed after menarche.That is, menarche around the age of 13, and basically no growth at the age of sixteen or seventeen.

"You are really professional! I went to a big hospital to take my children to buy calcium tablets, and the doctor told me so, and other pharmacies never said such things."

The lady immediately gave Li Jingsheng a thumbs up, and she found a chair in front of the counter and sat down.

It seems that Li Jingsheng's professional answer directly won her trust and favor.

The man who was buying cold medicine, after hearing this, had a little more trust in this small clinic.

This is the reason why people follow the crowd.

Hearing others praise a certain store, at this time, his subconscious will naturally have a better impression of this store.

It is better to boast ten words than others.

Li Jingsheng gave the man two boxes of cold medicine.In fact, the effect of dispensing bulk medicine will be better, and the profit will be greater, but the supervision is particularly strict now.

In addition, some patients like to pretend to be smart and take medicine indiscriminately.

It is clearly prescribed to take it twice a day, and it is required to take it once in the morning and evening.After eating a bag, the patient may feel that the effect is not as expected. In order to recover sooner, he may eat another bag at noon before the evening.

Each drug is metabolized at a different rate.

Eating in a row like this is especially prone to accidents.

Li Jingsheng is a timid person, so he sold some bulk medicines at the beginning, sealed them in bags strictly according to the requirements, and wrote down the names of the medicines and the dosage.Later, he felt that there was a greater risk, so he would rather make less money and only sell boxes of medicines.

After prescribing cold medicine and seeing off the male patient, Li Jingsheng came over.

He smiled apologetically, "Sorry for keeping you waiting!"

"It's okay, I'm off work anyway! Please recommend me a better calcium tablet."

the woman said.

"How old is your child?"

"11 is old."

"Is it a boy or a little padded jacket?"

"Little padded jacket!"

she replied with a smile.

When parents buy medicine for their children, if they don't bring their children, Li Jingsheng usually doesn't directly ask whether it's a boy or a girl when he asks about the gender.

Because the social atmosphere still persists in patriarchal thinking, some parents feel that it is disgraceful to have a girl.

Asking directly may cause people to be unhappy.

It is conceivable that if the customer is unhappy, he will definitely not come back next time.

"Why do you want to supplement calcium? Do you want her to grow taller, or is it because of calcium deficiency in the body? Or just purely want to supplement calcium."

According to Li Jingsheng's experience in receiving patients, there are very few parents who simply want to supplement calcium for their children.

Either I want the child to grow taller, or the child has some symptoms due to calcium deficiency.

Such as osteoporosis.

The parent mentioned before that he took his child to the hospital to see a doctor. Most of them bought calcium tablets because of some problems.

And it is likely to have eaten some calcium tablets.

Doctors in large hospitals like to prescribe calcium tablets for children, especially pediatricians.

Everyone knows this, there is no harm in taking some calcium tablets, and the doctor can also earn some commission for prescribing the medicine.

All are happy.

"The child was about three or four months ago, and she kept complaining of leg pain. I was worried that there was something wrong, so I took her to the Children's Hospital. After asking about the situation, the doctor said that the child might be growing. The doctor said that she was 11 years old. It is the rapid growth stage of the child. Due to the rapid growth of bones, pain in the knee joints and lower legs is prone to occur. He prescribed two boxes of calcium tablets for us to take at home."

Sure enough, it was similar to what Li Jingsheng had guessed.

The woman's daughter went to the doctor because of leg pain.

Knee joint and calf pain during children's growth is indeed very common.

When Li Jingsheng asked here, there was basically no problem.

Just open two boxes of children's calcium tablets.

However, considering that the child has eaten at least two bottles, this dose should be enough.

If you eat again, it is likely to overdose.

"How big are the two bottles of calcium tablets you prescribed in the hospital? How long have you been taking them?"

"There are two bottles of calcium tablets prescribed by the hospital. The doctor told us that children's need for calcium is much higher than that of adults. Let us take two tablets a day. It took about two months. Later, the child still said that the legs were a little bit pain, I went to the pharmacy and bought two boxes of calcium supplements for her to drink. I heard that the effect of calcium supplements is better. Didn’t I read the report about you and the Sunshine Clinic in the newspaper? Out of trust, I just got off work Pass by here and come in.”

The lady explained the situation exactly.

"Do you have calcium supplements here? It doesn't matter if it's more expensive, it's better to import it."

"There are calcium supplements! These are oral calcium supplements. Imported calcium supplements need to be ordered. They can arrive in about half a month, and the price is relatively expensive. However, your daughter has been suffering from leg pains. I think I should take her here for a check-up. Then decide whether calcium supplementation is better. Excessive calcium supplementation is very harmful. It will inhibit the absorption of iron, zinc, magnesium, etc., cause hypercalcemia, cause high blood pressure, arrhythmia and other diseases, and may damage the kidneys.

Your daughter has taken so many calcium tablets and calcium supplements in a short period of time, I suggest you continue to supplement calcium carefully. "

Li Jingsheng really wanted to sell two boxes of calcium supplements, the profit was quite considerable.

But this may cause the little girl to over-supplement calcium, causing some harm to the body. He never earns such ignorant money.

I would rather be poor than earn such black-hearted money.

Otherwise, the conscience will be troubled for a lifetime.

"Calcium supplementation is still so harmful. It's too scary. My God, I didn't know it before!" The lady panicked when she heard this. "Then my daughter took two bottles of calcium tablets and three boxes of calcium tablets, will there be no problem?"

"As long as you don't continue to take calcium tablets and calcium supplements, the problem should not be serious. Children have a fast metabolism and have a large demand for calcium, and even if you give her a calcium tablet, it is impossible to absorb all of it, most of it will be absorbed." Excreted from the body through stool and other means."

Li Jingsheng tried his best to comfort the 36-year-old mother.

"When do you get off work here? I'll bring my daughter over later, can you check it out for me?"

"No problem, as long as it's not too late, I can wait for you at the clinic. If I'm closed, you can also call me. Also, if you want to give your child calcium supplements, food supplements are actually better than taking calcium tablets directly. Unless the calcium deficiency is serious, you can only take calcium tablets or calcium supplements in combination with food supplements."

Li Jingsheng tried his best to give this mother guidance on calcium supplementation for her child.

"Thank you, thank you! I can bring my daughter here in about 20 minutes. Please wait for me."

After speaking, she hurried away.

Li Jingsheng faintly felt that the little girl's leg pain did not seem to be due to calcium deficiency.

Because I took so many calcium tablets and supplements, I should have supplemented it.

I'll have to check that kid carefully later.

It's just that he is not good at pediatrics, and he is not good at orthopedics. If he really can't make a diagnosis, he can only ask the parents to take their children to a big hospital for an examination.

After about ten minutes, a woman came in with a crying child in her arms.

Li Jingsheng was dispensing a tonic for a customer, and when he heard the cry of the child, he thought the lady had brought the child.

When I looked up, I found that it was another strange woman.

With big arms and round waist, he held a three-year-old little girl in his arms.

"Doctor, doctor, my daughter just fell off the sofa and her right hand seems to be injured. Please help me."

Looking at the situation, it should be a resident living nearby.

After his small clinic gained a little popularity, the business did pick up.

The residents nearby are willing to come in and patronize, which is the best proof.

"Please sit down for a while, my side will be fine soon."

Li Jingsheng saw that although the little girl was crying hard, her voice was loud, and the situation was not bad.There is no such thing as urgent to life-threatening.

That must be received in order.

"Can't you treat my daughter first? The child is crying so hard. Didn't you say that your doctor is kind?"

The woman speaks aggressively.

understand.

If someone else's child falls and hurts, the parents will feel anxious.

"Sorry, this gentleman has been waiting for a while, I have to help him finish the medicine first. It shouldn't be a big problem for your child to wait for a few minutes."

Li Jingsheng patiently explained.

"Why is it okay for my child to wait for a few minutes? You are blind! Didn't you see that the child's right hand was injured and hurt like this? With your attitude, I really came to your clinic because of my brain."

The woman left cursing.

Some women, relying on a little money or a little power at home, are really unruly and willful.

　Thank you two book friends, I am a novel fanatic, Uncle Xiyang, for your support.Many thanks.
