Chapter 146: Pipi Shrimp Sting Incident

"When was it stung? I will also talk about the situation after the sting. ”

Zhao Sheng then asked the uncle.

The uncle's right hand, right forearm, and upper arm, the whole situation looks like partial necrosis caused by a very serious infection, which is extremely rare.

Can be stung like this, what will this stinging shrimp look like?

"It's just a very ordinary kind of shrimp."

The uncle said with a weak and wronged face.

"Are you sure it's an ordinary Phi Phi Shrimp, not a particularly rare species?"

Zhao Sheng asked the uncle again with some doubts.

This skin shrimp, also called mouth shrimp cricket, has many common names, such as shrimp crawler, shrimp goby, pipa shrimp and so on, this kind of shrimp, in the last century, is a very cheap shrimp, almost few people eat.

Later, the trend of eating seafood rose, and the price of pipi shrimp rose to the sky.

The meat of the skin shrimp is fresh and tender, but eating the skin shrimp requires skill, and the body is hard and shelled with spines, so that people who cannot peel the skin shrimp correctly often have their fingers injured.

However, under normal circumstances, even if it is stung, it is only a small wound, and at most it will be inflamed, red and swollen, and it will not be like this uncle, and his right hand and arm are about to be wasted.

"Doctor, it's just an ordinary skin shrimp."

Uncle reconfirmed.

"Well, doctor, I've taken a picture of it, this is it."

At this time, the uncle's son, that is, the young man, also took out his mobile phone and showed the photos taken to Zhao Sheng.

Zhao Sheng took a look, no matter from which angle he looked at, the one in this photo was indeed a very ordinary skin shrimp, and there was still a little red on the shrimp, which should have been stained with blood after being stung at that time.

"What happens after you get stung?"

Zhao Sheng pondered for a moment and continued to ask.

Seafood, is now a very common ingredient, no matter which cooks, as long as you eat seafood, you have had the experience of being pricked by fish and shrimp bones and thorns, but they are all washed and washed, wrapped in a band-aid, and then a few days will be fine.

It's so serious, even Zhao Sheng has seen it for the first time.

"Doctor, that's right."

The uncle recalled the experience from yesterday's shrimp washing to the present.

It turned out that early yesterday morning, the uncle went to the seafood market to buy four catties of very fresh, it is said that it was just sent to the shrimp, ready to go home to make delicious salt-and-pepper shrimp for the family.

It's just that I didn't expect that when I got home and washed the shrimp at home, the uncle was accidentally stung on the thumb of his right hand by the largest shrimp.

After being stung, the uncle didn't care, because he only saw a small hole like a needle point, and a little blood flowed.

The uncle rushed his fingers, and the blood soon stopped, and he didn't even use a band-aid, so he didn't care about it.

Originally, the uncle didn't care about being stung by Pipi shrimp, but at noon, things suddenly changed.

After the family was full of wine and food, at noon, the uncle suddenly felt that the thumb of his right hand, which had been stung by Pipi shrimp, became red and swollen, and there was a pain like a pinprick in the face.

Immediately after that, the uncle began to have a fever and shortness of breath.

The family saw that something was wrong and immediately sent them to the hospital.

When I arrived at the local hospital, the emergency doctor took a look, treated it according to the normal inflammation, and gave an infusion, which was a very routine anti-inflammatory, analgesic, and fever-reducing.

But after the infusion, the situation was not controlled at all, but became more serious, the right thumb, which was originally just a little red and swollen, began to turn black, and from the right thumb, the entire right hand, upper arm, and forearm, began to be black and swollen.

Seeing that the situation was so serious, he had to be transferred to the First Affiliated Hospital.

"Did you bring the test results?"

Zhao Sheng asked.

"Bring, bringing."

The young man immediately took out a stack of inspection reports from his bag.

Zhao Sheng took the report and looked at it carefully one by one.

Soon, Zhao Sheng finished reading the checklist, and his face became even more solemn.

CRP is greater than 320, interleukin 6 value is 695.7, white blood cells are 13000/μl, and the most critical is PCT, that is, procalcitonin, which is currently the most accurate indicator for judging the severity of infection in clinical practice, reaching 124ng/ml.

You must know that the PCT content of normal people is less than 0.5, 124, which is more than 200 times that of normal people.

Looking at the test results of cardiac enzymes and liver and kidney function, they are also very unoptimistic.

This is extremely severe bacterial sepsis, complicated by cardiac, hepatic, and renal insufficiency, and septic shock soon develops!

Zhao Sheng quickly judged.

So, what kind of bacteria did the uncle be infected with that could cause such serious consequences in less than a day?

"Doctor, how's my dad?"

Seeing Zhao Sheng's solemn face, the young man couldn't help but ask very nervously.

"Come with me."

Zhao Sheng said to the young man and the eldest sister.

When the mother and son heard that Zhao Sheng was going to talk to them alone, their faces immediately changed, because the eldest sister's old mother had been hospitalized before, and when she was notified that she was critically ill, she called her family members to talk alone.

"Doctor, no need, if there's anything, just say it in front of me."

Unexpectedly, the mother and son were just about to go out to talk with Zhao Sheng, but the uncle said a little weakly but firmly.

He is also a veteran of the battlefield, and he is not even afraid of death, let alone illness.

"Old Song!!"

"Dad!"

The eldest sister and the young guy couldn't hold back any longer, the eldest sister burst into tears, and the young guy couldn't help but start wiping his tears.

"Don't cry, I'm not dead yet!"

"Doctor, just tell me if you have anything, if you want to sign, I still have a hand."

The uncle stopped the mother and son from crying, and said to Zhao Sheng very firmly.

At this moment, even Zhao Sheng was moved by the uncle's spirit of watching life and death and doing it if he was not satisfied.

"Uncle, your current situation is severe bacterial sepsis, and your right hand, forearm, and upper arm are also prone to necrosis, and you must operate immediately."

"In the case of surgery, depending on the necrosis situation, if necessary, there is a great possibility that the limb will need to be amputated in order to save life!"

Zhao Sheng tried his best to explain his condition in the briefest words.

He can see that this uncle is very assertive, and his will is also very firm, his consciousness is still relatively clear, and he can make his own decisions, and if septic shock breaks out with severe sepsis, he may not be able to make a decision soberly.

In the case of critical and serious rescue, on the one hand, it is more difficult to deal with complex conditions, and on the other hand, the most difficult thing is that some invasive operations must obtain the consent of the person and his family.

Of course, most of them are acceptable for surgery, but if they want to amputate their limbs, it will definitely be unacceptable to any normal person in their hearts.

"How did I get stung by a shrimp and I'm about to have my leg amputated."

"How..."

Hearing Zhao Sheng's words, the eldest sister felt that her eyes were dark, she burst into tears, she couldn't accept this reality at all, and her mouth just kept repeating this sentence.
