Chapter 443: Observe, Smell, Hear and Ask
The girl was slightly stunned and asked tentatively, “Something cold? What about frozen nutrient shakes… Do they count?”
“…Yes.”
The girl was embarrassed. She just felt that the nutrient shake did not taste good. She had heard that the nutrient shake would be better after freezing, so she tried it.
In the end, she realized that the frozen nutrient shake tasted much better, so she was used to freezing it before drinking it. Unexpectedly…
“In winter, you’re afraid of the cold and often have stomach pains?”
Everyone subconsciously pricked up their ears to listen to the girl’s answer.
“Mm.”
Su Yayan didn’t probe further. Instead, she continued, “Other than observing your facial features and tongue, I can tell the condition of your internal organs from your face and even the phlegm you spit out when you cough. However, it’s still too early to tell you all this. If you’re curious, you can go to the hospital for a period of time. There are all kinds of patients there. You can try to analyze their illnesses from their appearance. Nothing is better than practical experience.”
Su Yayan added worriedly, “Of course, what I mean is that you only need to look with your eyes. Don’t do anything unnecessary. It’s only a small matter if you get beaten up, but it’s definitely not a joke to misdiagnose.”
Everyone burst into laughter.
“Next is the smell. Other than the smell, there is also the sound that you need to hear. Different patients have different breathing levels, strength, clarity, and anxiety. For example, the person in front of us has a weaker breath. She slowly breathes in and breathes out. From this, we can tell that her body is cold. Her body is weak, so she needs more nourishment.”
Everyone was stunned by Su Yayan’s words, and their gazes subconsciously landed on the girl.
This was especially so for the old men in front whose ears were no longer as sensitive. They kept moving closer to her.
They wanted to hear if her breathing was really as Su Yayan had said. It scared the girl so much that she could not help but take a few steps back, and her breathing became erratic.
Su Yayan cleared her throat and tried to draw everyone’s attention back to her. “Let me give you another example. Everyone should know about asthma. How do you differentiate between regular people’s breathing and asthma? Asthma is not just about the breath, but it’s also about the word itself. In Chinese medicine, asthma refers to shortness of breath, but there is a low sound coming from the throat. This sound often comes from the end of each breath.”
It was precisely because of this that Su Yayan knew Ning Siyuan had asthma when they first met.
“If you know someone with asthma, you can go back and take a closer look to see if it’s as I said.”
“The next step is to ask, and that is the literal meaning. You have to ask the patient’s physical condition before you know what to do. Don’t underestimate this. You need the patient to trust the doctor completely before you can tell them everything. Some patients who are afraid of doctors will not tell you, but they might lie. This might interfere with your judgment and affect the subsequent treatment.
Su Yayan did not elaborate on this. “The last thing to take note of is the pulse. We need to check the pulse to confirm the illness.”
The moment Su Yayan said that, the elders in the front row stood up and rushed to the podium. They wanted to take a closer look at the so-called pulse..
