Chapter 668

At more than four o'clock, a middle-aged man came to see a doctor with a little girl.

The little girl was wearing a black cotton padded jacket, glasses, a scarf over her face and gloves. She didn't take them off when she entered the room.

Now it's very cold outside, a few degrees below zero, but there is heating in the room. Most people will take these off when they enter the room, otherwise it will be hot.

But Dr. Xiao is not surprised that he hasn't seen anyone in the hospital.

"What's wrong?" Asked Dr. Xiao.

"My daughter has been coughing for a few months, and it's not good to take medicine..." the girl's father said.

As if to confirm his words, the little girl coughed violently before the sound and words fell, and her face turned red.

"How many months?" Dr. Xiao frowned.

"Three or four months, I can't remember." Said the girl's father.

"Did you catch a cold before? Is there phlegm? " Dr. Xiao continued.

"No." The girl shook her head.

"Have you ever taken a film?" Dr. Xiao asked again.

"No." The girl's father replied, "I don't think she is seriously ill. Just buy some cough medicine. She has a bad cough recently."

Dr. Xiao picked up the stethoscope and went to the girl. "Open the cotton padded clothes."

The girl's face turned red and she untied the button of her cotton padded clothes. Dr. Xiao put the stethoscope on her chest, "exhale, inhale..."

The girl took a deep breath and exhaled.

Dr. Xiao frowned, "come again, breathe, cough again..."

"Listen!" Dr. Xiao said to Guo Xiang and an Zehan.

They nodded. Dr. Xiao, is this an on-site teaching? What a qualified teacher.

Anzehan and Guo Xiang also went up and listened with a stethoscope. When the little girl saw such a handsome man as anzehan coming together, her face turned red and her breath was short. She was out of breath.

"The sound is wrong." Said anzehan.

Guo Xiang also nodded, "it's abnormal. There's a wet rale."

"Can it be pneumonia?" Said anzehan.

"Open your mouth and let me have a look." Dr. Xiao said and picked up a small flashlight.

The girl opened her mouth.

"Say 'ah'."

"Ah -" the girl sighed.

The throat doesn't seem to be inflamed. Is there a problem with the lung?

"Take a film." Dr. Xiao said.

"Is it pneumonia?" The girl's father is a little nervous. The child is now in senior three and is about to take the college entrance examination. What if he is hospitalized with pneumonia and delays his study?

"I can't confirm it yet. Take a film and have a look." Dr. Xiao said, get a bill, "let the doctor quickly give the results, and say it's what I said."

The girl's father nodded, took the sheet, took the child down to pay the fee and went to the X-ray room to take a film.

"It should be pneumonia?" An Zehan looked to Dr. Xiao. Several people who came to see him today had colds and fever. They had a pneumonia and had been hospitalized.

Dr. Xiao didn't speak and looked a little serious.

After about an hour, it was about to get off work. The girl's father rushed over with the girl.

Dr. Xiao picked up the X-ray film and clamped it on the light box. The three people all came up to have a look.

This was a big shock. It was much more serious than pneumonia, and the fractal dimension of the lung was fibrillated.

The lung is an important respiratory organ of the human body. People who have bought pig lung in the market may have seen it. The lung is a little pink and elastic. There are many holes in the cut, interspersed with blood vessels. Human breathing is mainly completed through blood and gas in the alveoli through gas exchange.

However, if pulmonary fibrosis occurs, collagen is secreted between the lung interstitium, filling those pores and forming a piece, which hinders the exchange of gas and causes dyspnea.

After pulmonary fibrosis, the lungs gradually harden, and finally can't breathe, which may suffocate and die.

However, generally speaking, patients with pulmonary fibrosis have a history of smoking and may be in a dusty environment for a long time. For example, most of those with pneumoconiosis are coal miners.

But the little girl is obviously unlikely, and why is her lung fibrosis so young?

"Doctor, what's going on?" The girl's father was a little anxious, "isn't it really pneumonia?"

"This is much more serious than pneumonia." Anzehan couldn't help saying.

"What?" The girl's father was frightened, and the girl coughed again. She was short of breath and her face turned red.

"Don't be afraid, take your time, come on, take a deep breath..." Guo Xiang hurried to guide the girl, but she was still very uncomfortable and seemed out of breath.

Guo Xiang felt distressed and said softly, "don't worry, take your time..."

"Go to the hospital first!" Dr. Xiao said.

"Doctor, what's wrong with my daughter?" The girl's father is in a hurry.

"Your daughter's lung has become fibrotic, which is very serious. If you don't treat it again..." Dr. Xiao couldn't go on.

"What is fibrosis?" The girl's father didn't understand. The girl also looked at Dr. Xiao.

Dr. Xiao didn't know how to explain. He saw a rubber band on the table and said, "you see, people's lungs are originally like this, elastic..."

Dr. Xiao pulled the rubber band as he said, "but her lungs are now like hard rubber bands, like branches, and can't shrink, but they haven't completely fibrosis, otherwise they can't breathe."

"This, this..." the girl's father was shocked. "Is my daughter still saved? Can you cure it? "

Dr. Xiao hesitated and said, "we will take medicine to make her feel better as far as possible, which can alleviate the symptoms, but it is impossible to cure it completely unless she has a lung transplant."

Basically, this disease can not be cured. They all die of respiratory and circulatory disorders.

"What?" The girl's father's face turned white. The girl's breathing became more rapid and her lungs seemed to cough out.

"How could this happen? Why did you get this disease? " The girl's father shook her head, but she still couldn't believe it. She thought pneumonia would delay the college entrance examination. Now he would rather have pneumonia, at least pneumonia can be cured.

But now the doctor means that the disease can't be cured?

"We will try our best, there are drugs available, and we will try to prolong her life..." Dr. Xiao's voice is getting lower and lower. He is also very helpless. The doctor is not an immortal, and not any disease can be cured.

"Well, Dad, we won't cure it." The girl looks pale. It's better not to spend so much money to cure her.

"But if you can live a few more years..." Guo Xiang couldn't help saying.

The girl smiled bitterly, "in the end, she's still going to die, isn't she?"

"You can't think so." An Zehan said, "we all want to die. We can't live well because we will die. You still have hope. Maybe we can cure it after the medical technology is good in a few years..."

Guo Xiang didn't speak. Even in later generations, the disease is very difficult. Some drugs may be more advanced, but they still can't cure the root cause. Lung transplantation is the most effective, but how difficult it is. Where can I find the source of lung?

"Dad..." the girl cried.

"Cure, no matter how much money you spend, I can't watch my daughter suffer..." the girl's father's eyes were also red.

The girl burst into tears, and her tears fell into her scarf and moistened it.

Her father painfully wiped her tears, pulled down her scarf and wiped her daughter's face with his big palm.

"Your face..." Guo Xiang was surprised. The skin on the girl's face cracked badly, like an old lady one by one.

"Take off your gloves and let me see." Guo Xiang exclaimed.

The girl didn't know why, so she took off her gloves. Her hands were red and swollen, her hair was white and purple, her thick cortical hair was dry and hard, and she also cracked badly, like chilblain.

"This......" Guo Xiang was shocked.
