Chapter 182: Meningitis

The car passed by Zhongguo Hope School, the school happened to be late after self-study, Lin Ping thought that going to the hospital might delay some things, and Lin Ping, who was the head of a school, still needed to tell him something, so he asked Wang Xinming to stop the car and hurriedly ran to the school.

Ma Zhongguo, Zhang Yipeng and several others heard the sound of Wang Xinming's car, and they also hurriedly walked out and ran into Lin Ping head-on.

Lin Ping, Ma Zhongguo and Zhang Yipeng hurriedly told some things and were about to leave, when Feng Chunxiu and they came over, Lin Ping and they made such a big move, and a few of their very curious women naturally quickly knew what had happened.

"Where are you going so late?" Shi Honglin asked.

"Go to the hospital in town. Lin Ping said.

"Just that little girl with a high fever?" Feng Chunxiu asked.

Lin Ping said: "Yes, I have to go......"

Before Lin Ping finished speaking, Feng Chunxiu said: "Isn't it just a fever, do you still need to go to the town?" Drink some brown sugar ginger water, cover yourself in the quilt all night, and sweat, this day must be because of a cold." ”

Feng Chunxiu's idea is the idea of simple mountain people, and it is also the idea of most rural people; in economically underdeveloped areas that lack medical conditions, most people have developed the ideological consciousness of "dragging on minor illnesses and carrying major illnesses", and they are subconsciously afraid of going to the hospital, because going to the hospital means spending a lot of money, "when the ambulance rings, a pig is raised in vain; if you see a sick person, you will earn money in vain for a year." Unless you really can't bear it, you will have the idea of going to the hospital.

And a minor illness such as a fever and cold is not worth not going to the hospital, and you can carry it over, and if you can't do it, take some medicine.

Lin Ping smiled and didn't speak, then returned to the car.

"Hurry up and go to the town hospital. Lin Ping said to Wang Xinming after getting into the car.

At this time, the little girl in the car, Shi Yu, had a fever and her face turned red, and she was lying in the small space behind the cab of the car with her eyes closed, and her consciousness seemed to be a little unconscious.

Wang Xinming stepped on the accelerator all the way, rushing all the way to the town from the bumpy country dirt road, the vehicles in this era are at night in this poor place, and there are relatively few vehicles, and there are not many cars on the road, until the slightly more prosperous town center slows down.

The town hospital has been off work at this point, and can only hang up the emergency department, Lin Ping and a few of them hurriedly hung up the emergency room for the little girl Shi Yu.

Shi Yu was sent to the consultation room, and Lin Ping hurriedly explained the situation to the doctor.

"Don't worry. The doctor on duty comforted Lin Ping and said, then tried Shi Yu's forehead with his hand, then frowned and quickly took a thermometer and put it in her armpit.

The doctor on duty pulled up Shi Yu's eyelids and looked at them again, and then didn't look at them.

"What's going on? Lin Ping asked.

The doctor on duty shook his head, then asked, "When did it start, and what other symptoms did it have?"

Lin Ping was stunned for a moment, and then said, "I found it tonight, and I ...... it I don't know when it started, and I didn't find any other symptoms, so I sent it to the village clinic, and then the doctor of the clinic saw that the body temperature was so high, so he gave a fever-reducing injection, and the result was that the body temperature rose again, so he quickly sent him to the town hospital. ”

The doctor on duty glanced at Lin Ping: "Who are you this little girl? She has such a high fever, it must not have a sudden fever, you don't know when it started?"

Lin Ping smiled awkwardly and said, "I'm her teacher." ”

"Oh. The doctor on duty looked at Lin Ping, and then said, "Wait for the temperature to come out." ”

A few minutes later, the doctor on duty took out a thermometer and looked: 39 degrees 6.

"What's the matter, doctor?" Lin Ping asked.

The doctor on duty looked at Shi Yu, who had his eyes closed, then looked at Lin Ping and said, "Go to the county hospital to check." ”

"Go...... Go to the county hospital?" Lin Ping asked a little overwhelmed.

The doctor on duty said: "Yes, the temperature is so high, I have been having a high fever, in this case, I should go to the county hospital to take a blood and do a CT scan to check it." ”

"Good, good. Lin Ping agreed, picked up Shi Yu and was about to go out, then turned around and asked the doctor on duty, "Doctor, what do you think is the matter? It can't be an infectious disease, right?"

The doctor on duty shook his head and said, "It's hard to say, she didn't sneeze, runny nose, cough or anything like that, did she?"

Lin Ping thought about it, it seemed that there were indeed no such phenomena, but he had been sleeping with his eyes closed, if it weren't for the ups and downs of breathing and dreams, it would have made people feel like they couldn't do it.

Lin Ping shook his head and said, "No." ”

The doctor on duty said, "That shouldn't be, you should go to the county hospital now." ”

Lin Ping returned to the car with Shi Yu in his arms, and Wang Xinming and Shi Weiqing, who were waiting for them in the car, asked anxiously, "What's the matter?"

Lin Ping said: "Go to the county hospital." ”

"Huh?" Wang Xinming asked with a surprised expression.

"The doctor told us to go to the county hospital and drive quickly. Lin Ping said.

"Oh, good. Wang Xinming started the car, "Is it so serious?"

Lin Ping shook his head and said in a somewhat uneasy tone, "I don't know." ”

drove all the way to Xibei County People's Hospital, and it was already more than ten o'clock in the evening.

It was another emergency registration, and then various payments and examinations, and a set of procedures had been walked down for more than an hour.

In the outpatient room, Lin Ping and Wang Xinming anxiously waited for the results of the examination, and after a while, the doctor came over and said, "You two are the family members of patient Shi Yu?"

Lin Ping hurriedly stood up and said, "Yes, I am." ”

"Who are you?" the doctor asked, looking Lin Ping up and down.

"I'm his teacher. Lin Ping said.

"Teacher?" the doctor asked in a puzzled tone.

"Yes, teacher. Lin Ping nodded and said.

The doctor paused for two seconds and said, "The teacher is the teacher, let's go through the hospitalization procedures for this child early tomorrow morning." This kid is hospitalized tonight, so stay with me first. ”

"What's the matter? What kind of disease does this kid have?" Wang Xinming asked anxiously.

"Viral meningitis, which requires hospitalization," the doctor said. I want you to send it early, now the symptoms are not too serious, but it has been a continuous high fever, there should be a period of low-grade fever, it is best to send it at that time, of course, no one will realize that the low-grade fever is meningitis, it is not too late for you to send it now, it seems that it should be just a high fever. ”

"What's that?" Wang Xinming asked suspiciously, "What's encephalitis?"

"Meningitis. The doctor looked at Wang Xinming, and then kindly explained, "You can simply understand that it is because of the inflammation of the meninges caused by the virus." This disease is more common in adolescents, especially children with weak constitutions. ”

Wang Xinming was frightened when he heard this, and said, "Is your brain inflamed?"

The doctor said speechlessly, "It's not the brain, it's the leptomeningeal outside the brain." ”

Wang Xinming asked again: "Will it be contagious?"

The doctor was stunned for a moment, then remembered something and looked at Lin Ping and said, "You are a teacher?"

Lin Ping nodded: "Yes." ”

"Did this kid find out in your class that he had this kind of problem?" the doctor asked again.

Lin Ping said: "She is from the next class, I am the principal, she was found by the teacher in the class in the evening self-study with a high fever, and then notified me." ”

"Oh, then you can inform your school teachers, pay attention, this viral meningitis is still contagious, and other students have a high fever and vomiting if they have a situation similar to this little girl. In particular, my neck was stiff and I couldn't sag, so I rushed to the hospital. The doctor said kindly.

"Is this serious?" Lin Ping asked anxiously.

The doctor shook his head and said: "Viral meningitis is okay, not other types of meningitis, this kind of meningitis is contagious, but the infection rate is relatively low, and it is easy to cure, and there will be no problems with timely cure, I am afraid that parents will treat it as a child with a fever and cold, and then treat it as a cold, and delay the timing may leave sequelae." However, as long as you have been treated once, you will not do it again in your life. ”
