When the Doctor Uses A Hack

Chapter 529: Young Parents Must Pay Attention (Must See)



```Chen Dahai is feeling pretty proud today!

The two bottles of Moutai that Qin Yue brought over made him happy all night long, and it wasn't even because they were that expensive or anything.

The main thing was that they were exactly to his taste, something Chen Dahai would never buy for himself!

Even though Qin Yue would have been over the moon without bringing anything, holding those two bottles of Moutai made Chen Dahai, who was already quite vain, unbearably proud.

So that afternoon, he invited some friends over to his house for drinks and started showing off the Moutai.

"Hey, see this? This was brought by my daughter-in-law. I've never even tasted Moutai in my life!" Chen Dahai said with a smile.

A friend by his side picked up the Moutai and took a glance: "Whoa, Old Chen, look at this, it's a 1999 vintage!"

Old Chen was startled, as he had not noticed that detail before, and quickly picked up the Feitian Moutai to take a closer look!

He immediately noticed the 1999 marking.

After seeing this, Old Chen's expression changed, my goodness, it's been 20 years, what a treasure!

With that thought, Old Chen quickly snatched back the bottle from his friend's hand with utmost care.

"Hehe, we're not drinking today!"

After saying that, he quickly got up, carefully packed away the Moutai, and ran into the house to hide it in the cellar, locking the door. After returning upstairs, he breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that no one had noticed.

My goodness, such good liquor would be wasted on you guys. We'll drink one bottle when Chen Cang gets married and the other when the kid turns one month old.

Yes!

I'll drink it then with the father-in-law.

Thinking of this, Chen Dahai couldn't help but smile.

Back in the house, a few cronies stared at Old Chen: "You invite us over... just to show us the liquor?"

Chen Dahai's face turned red: "Of course not!"

While speaking, he stood up and grabbed a big pile of peanuts and melon seeds: "Eat some seeds, let's have a chat!"

The guys were instantly infuriated!

"How dare you, Chen Dahai, you were the happiest when my son-in-law brought over that Wuliangye."

"Exactly, you also drank quite a bit of that Luzhou Laojiao my daughter brought last year, right?"

"And my 30-year-old Fenjiu..."

Chen Dahai laughed heartily, not caring at all, after all, this was 20-year-old Feitian Moutai; just the thought of it made him happy.

"It's not that we're not drinking, it's just that these days aren't suitable. Imagine my daughter-in-law coming over for the first time and seeing us drink up all the liquor, how inappropriate would that be? Let's pick a good day to sit down and have a proper drink!"

...

...

Today is mother Yang Jiahui's birthday, and in the evening, the family gathered. There might not be a birthday cake, but there were longevity noodles.

And a table full of dishes made by Chen Dahai.

In the evening, Chen Luo called, connected to the video, and they talked for quite a while.

This made both Yang Jiahui and Chen Dahai feel that their child had indeed grown up.

Yang Jiahui chatted with Qin Yue, while Chen Dahai and Chen Cang had a few shots of baijiu.

Just then, a sudden loud knocking on the door arose.

Accompanied by a child's loud cries, which could be clearly heard from inside the house across the courtyard.

Chen Dahai hurried to get up and open the door, only to see a woman running in with a child in her arms.

"Uncle Chen, is Chen Cang at home?"

Chen Dahai also saw it was Chen Yanni from the village.

"He's here, he's here, come inside quickly, what's wrong with the child?"```

Chen Yanni was also extremely anxious, "The child's arm is dislocated, but it seems to be in a peculiar spot. It hurts unbearably whenever I try to adjust it."

Nowadays, rural doctors are all young girls. After the older generation of barefoot doctors retired, these young people don't really know how to practice medicine. Their daily tasks are nothing more than registering some chronic diseases, follow-up forms, spreading knowledge, and so on. The people in the village would head straight to the hospital the minute they feel unwell.

This is also why the elderly, once they get older, are taken to the city by their children. What if they get sick?

Nanquan Village is the same. There used to be an old barefoot doctor, a traditional Chinese medicine practitioner with quite some skill, but after he got old and was no longer capable, his children took him to the city.

Now the village only has a woman who never attended a day of medical college and had just a few days of training to fill out forms and dispense medication—how could she possibly diagnose illnesses?

After entering, Chen Yanni quickly said, "Xiao Chen, please take a look quickly."

The child was crying uncontrollably. When Chen Cang saw this, he was momentarily stunned.

A very common ailment!

'Nursemaid's elbow,' also known as 'radial head subluxation.'

More professionally, it's called 'partial dislocation of the radial head'!

This condition is very common, particularly because many parents aren't careful when they are pulling on their children's arms—when walking, climbing stairs, or when a child accidentally falls, they might yank the child's hand sharply, which can easily cause this injury.

Many young parents nowadays simply don't know how to look after children. Chen Cang had seen many such cases in the emergency room, regardless of the parents' gender.

And because a child's bones are not fully developed, the radial head can slide towards the distal end. When it snaps back into place, the upper half of the annular ligament doesn't retract in time and gets pinched inside the elbow joint, leading to a partial dislocation of the radial head.

If not treated promptly, it can easily lead to problems!

However, as the child grows and the radial head develops properly, the annular ligament also thickens and strengthens, preventing future subluxations.

Chen Cang told the woman, "Put the child down."

Chen Yanni quickly nodded her head, but the child was wailing and refused to let Chen Cang touch his arm.

Qin Yue hurried over with a piece of chocolate, "Don't cry, don't cry. Auntie has something tasty for you."

Chen Yanni also said, "Uncle is a doctor, it will stop hurting in a second, be good, be good."

It was unclear whether it was the allure of the chocolate or the fear of the doctor, but the child did stop crying.

While the child's attention was diverted, Chen Cang took the opportunity to rotate the forearm posteriorly, extend the elbow, and apply a little traction!

Then he skillfully pressed his thumb on the small round head of the child's radial bone near the elbow joint and flexed the elbow joint sharply!

Immediately, a sound could be heard!

The child stopped crying.

Chen Cang took a washcloth from the house and used it to immobilize the child's arm.

At this time, Chen Yanni's parents also rushed in, anxious, but seeing that the child was no longer crying, they let out a sigh of relief.

However, they said to Chen Yanni, "The child's bones are not fully developed; when you pull on the child, don't use too much force. Otherwise, it's very easy to cause habitual dislocation. Also, prolonged dislocation can easily lead to many complications and is not conducive to the child's skeletal development. Be more careful in the future."

An anxious Chen Yanni nodded continuously, "Thank you, Doctor Chen!"

The parents behind her also nodded repeatedly, "Yes, yes, Xiao Chen, you are really amazing; you fixed it just like that."

Chen Cang shook his head, "When you go back, keep it immobilized for a week and don't move it around. There's been ligament strain, and if it doesn't recover properly, the impact can be significant!"

Chen Yanni nodded hurriedly.

Chen Cang sighed helplessly; young people today really don't take care of children as well as the older generation. This kind of 'nursemaid's elbow' rarely occurred when the older generation looked after children, but in the emergency room, it was common to see young people rushing in with their children.

The issue is that some young people like to "play with children" or are not careful when playing with them. A little bit of carelessness, a bit of excessive force, and injuries can easily occur. When pulling on a child's hand, they do it casually, and if the child falls, they simply yank them up, which can easily cause partial dislocation of the radial head.

Many young parents are somewhat negligent when it comes to their children.

ps: This case was suggested by a reader, and I think it's also necessary to educate everyone on this. From recent book reviews, I noticed that many readers are about to become parents. I hope everyone will be careful and not cause unnecessary harm to children.

Often it's young parents lifting a child off the ground, with the child's upper limbs raised and the parents' arms lowered. When they encounter stairs, the parents suddenly lift the child's hand to help the child over the steps, and symptoms appear immediately thereafter. Or, when forcefully putting a wool sweater on a child, rough pulling can also lead to radial head subluxation.

I hope that parents will be a little more careful with their children. After all, the bones haven't finished developing, and the ligaments are fragile.

ps: Thanks to "Gardenia's Whispering Wind" for another 10000 reward, becoming an elder, haha, thank you!
