I practiced medicine in ancient times

Chapter 256 Hemorrhoidectomy

"What should we do? Don't you two, Imperial Physician Xu, have any way to treat it?" Duke Wang Guo, who was standing by, asked with a slightly changed expression upon hearing this.

On the contrary, after hearing this, Old Lady Wang looked calm, as if she had already anticipated such an outcome.

"Old man, why do you have to do this?" Old Lady Wang sighed softly, "Anyway, I've already gotten used to it and I'm mentally prepared."

"But..." Duke Wang Guo looked at her anxiously, wanting to say something but not knowing where to start.

"Who said we don't have a treatment method?" Xu Qingyi and Bai Yan looked at each other and smiled at the same time.

Bai Yan walked forward and pinched the quilt for Madam Wang. She looked at Madam Wang and said, "Madam Wang, we do understand your condition. Although your condition is complicated, it is not incurable.

It’s just that the treatment method is a bit drastic, and it’s a permanent solution. I just don’t know if you’re afraid after listening to it.”

After hearing this, Mrs. Wang's eyes flashed with surprise. She had seen many imperial doctors, but they had not seen any effect after taking medicine and acupuncture. She did not hold any hope. She did not expect that two young imperial doctors could cure her disease. Mrs. Wang asked excitedly, "I wonder what the treatment method is. Is it dangerous?"

Madam Wang asked tentatively.

"Surgical treatment means cutting off the exposed hemorrhoids and cleaning out the abscessed part of the anus.

This can be considered a minor operation. There is a degree of danger, but it is not great. However, nothing is absolute. Some things must be said in advance. It is up to you to decide whether to operate the knife or not.

After the decision is made, we can operate on you, old lady. If something unpredictable happens after the operation... " Bai Yan did not continue to say the following words. Those who understand will understand, so let Wang Guogong and his wife experience it with confidence.

"After this hemorrhoid is removed, it will not grow again?" Old Lady Wang was interested when she heard this.

When Duke Wang Guogong saw his wife's expression, he knew that she was inclined to undergo surgery and wanted to solve the problem once and for all.

“After having hemorrhoids removed, the chance of them growing back is very small.

In the future, you should not sit for a long time, avoid constipation, keep your bowels open, eat more fruits and vegetables, and not spend too much time in the toilet. Basically, there will be no problem. "Bai Yan explained with a smile.

After hearing this, Madam Wang's worries instantly dissipated. She looked at Duke Wang with a questioning look in her eyes. Duke Wang pondered for a moment and said, "Since Imperial Physician Bai said that the problem is not serious, then let's operate."

Duke Wang Guo also knew his wife's personality. Before she fell ill, she was a clean and respectable person. There was no effective treatment before, so she just muddled along.

There is a treatment now that can cure the disease once and for all, but the treatment is somewhat threatening, which cannot stop her from having the surgery.

Wang Guogong's words dispelled the last bit of hesitation in Old Lady Wang's heart. She nodded and decided to undergo the operation.

Bai Yan smiled slightly. She had already seen the determination of Old Lady Wang and understood her pain. Bai Yan said, "Please clear an empty room for the operation. Then, give Old Lady Wang some Ma Fei Powder and let her take off her pants."

"Take this prescription, boil it and set it aside for later use. It will be taken after Madam Wang has surgery." Xu Qingyi also wrote out the prescription and handed it to Lin Yuan to get the medicine and boil it.

The servants of the Wang family, Chen Xiu, Lin Yuan and the other three, received instructions from Bai Yan and Xu Qingyi and took action one by one.

Chen Xiu, along with several maids from the Wang family, placed Old Madam Wang in an empty room. They cleaned the room thoroughly and also fumigated the room with medicine written by Xu Qingyi to disinfect it.

There was only a long table in the middle of the room, and a screen blocked the bed.

Lin Yuan took two servants with him, got the medicine according to Xu Qingyi's prescription, and started to boil it immediately.

After everything was ready, Bai Yan checked the surgical instruments again, thought carefully about everything that might happen when removing the external hemorrhoids, how he would deal with them, and simulated the surgical scene in his mind.

"Madam Wang has taken the Ma Fei San and it's working. The patient has been carried to the surgery room. Everything is ready." Xu Qingyi saw that everything was ready. Bai Yan closed his eyes and fell into deep thought, as if he was thinking. She stepped forward and said softly.

It was still Xu Qingyi and Chen Xiu who helped Bai Yan.

"Let's start." Bai Yan's eyes widened, a gleam of light flashed in his eyes, and he said in a low voice.

At this time, Old Madam Wang was lying on the long table, with her lower body raised high, just at the same height as Bai Yan's waist. This height was also the best height for Bai Yan to operate the knife.

Moreover, Madam Wang's legs were bent and opened, revealing her valley, which Bai Yan could see clearly.

The operation to remove external hemorrhoids is also a minor operation. Bai Yan put on gloves and held the knife in her right hand. Her eyes were focused and calm, as if she was fighting a battle without gunpowder. The blade shone with cold light, but Bai Yan seemed calm and unhurried.

Bai Yan gently pressed Madam Wang's skin with his left hand, and the tip of the knife in his right hand moved accurately, as if drawing a beautiful arc on paper. The external hemorrhoids were slowly cut off, and each cut was accompanied by a slight sound.

As time went by, the operation gradually came to an end. Bai Yan cut off the last small piece of external hemorrhoids, scraped off the surrounding abscesses, and carefully checked the wound. After confirming that there was no bleeding, he breathed a sigh of relief.

Although the operation of removing external hemorrhoids is a minor operation, each step requires Bai Yan's precise operation and rich experience. With her professional skills, Bai Yan successfully completed the operation and relieved the patient's pain.

"Success." Bai Yan smiled and took off his gloves.

It took Bai Yan nearly an hour to actually perform the operation, although it took him so long to do it.

Wang Guogong, who was outside the house, his two daughters-in-law at home, and his two sons who were attending court, heard that their mother was being treated for her anus by Bai Yan, and they waited anxiously outside the house.

As soon as Xu Qingyi, Bai Yan, and Chen Xiu came out of the room where the operation was performed, the Wang family immediately came to greet them and asked worriedly, "Doctor Bai, Doctor Xu, how is my mother?"

"The surgery went very smoothly, but I'm afraid it will take some time to recover.

In addition, follow the instructions given before. After the hemorrhoids are removed this time, the chance of them growing again will be very low." Bai Yan comforted the Wang family.

"That's good, that's good." Wang Guogong felt relieved when he heard it. He didn't know if it was because of his old age or because he was worried about standing for too long, but his head was a little dizzy. If there was no one to support him, he might have fallen down.
