Chapter 412 Febrile Convulsions
Chapter 412 Febrile Convulsions
"Most people enter from the north gate and exit from the south gate, and basically just spend the night there."
Xu Huaiyuan continued.
Shen Yuan frowned and checked around, but indeed couldn't find any problems.
But he always felt that there was something wrong.
"I will have people continue to keep an eye on these convoys and investigate their origins and whereabouts."
Xu Huaiyuan saw that his expression was not right. He originally thought that there was no problem, but his heart suddenly began to beat fast.
"Well, the number changes too much, so it's better to be careful."
Shen Yuan did not dwell on it any more. If there really was a problem, it would be found out sooner or later. It was a good thing that County Magistrate Xu was getting nervous.
At this time, a yamen runner came over and said that Su Wanwan and the others had gone to the theater, and Shen Yuan took his leave.
However, he still went to find Jiang Shun first. It might be easier to let Jiang Shun and others investigate the caravan's affairs.
It would be best to follow one of the caravans and see where they end up.
Jiang Shun was not working at the county government office. He heard that something happened at home, so he went home.
This place is not far from Jiang Shun’s home, so Shen Yuan planned to go over and take a look.
Unexpectedly, before reaching Jiang Shun's house, he saw Jiang Shun rushing over with the child in his arms.
The child was Jiang Shun's son. Shen Yuan naturally knew him. However, at this moment, the child's face was covered in bruises, he was biting a handkerchief, and his whole body was shaking.
A woman followed behind, crying bitterly.
"what happened?"
Shen Yuan asked immediately.
When Jiang Shun saw Shen Yuan, he didn't even have time to say hello and just ran out holding his son.
"The child has a high fever and convulsions. I have to go to the clinic!"
He ran very fast. Shen Yuan, who was watching from behind, was also anxious. This convulsion could be fatal.
There was a child in the village who had a high fever and convulsions. Although he was rescued, his fever did not subside. By the time he recovered, his brain was damaged and he became a fool.
By the way, my wife has some medicine for reducing fever, and it’s very effective.
Shen Yuan asked them which clinic they went to, but did not follow them. He immediately ran to the theater and called out Su Wanwan.
Su Wanwan and Ye Jingxue had already found the old lady. They were watching with great interest. Seeing Shen Yuan so anxious, they followed him without any time to explain.
On the way, Su Wanwan heard that Jiang Shun's child had a high fever and convulsions, so she immediately took out children's antipyretic medicine from the space.
The medicines in the space were not used much, and I almost cleared out an entire pharmacy.
When we arrived at the clinic, although the child had stopped shivering, his high fever had not subsided. The doctor was so anxious that he was sweating while giving the child acupuncture.
Jiang Shun's wife kept wiping with a towel, trying to cool him down physically.
There was blood on a towel nearby; the child had actually bitten it and it bled.
He was still talking nonsense at this time.
"Doctor, what should we do if the fever won't go away? Could it be that the child has become stupid?"
Jiang Shun's wife asked while crying, her hands were shaking and she felt like her brain was going crazy from the nervousness.
"We can only try our best. Whether the child can make it through it or not depends on him."
Doctor Dong pulled out the silver needle and sighed helplessly.
Su Wanwan had already borrowed a medicine bowl, mixed the powdered antipyretic medicine with water, and quickly brought it over for the child to drink, just a mouthful.
"Jiang Shun, if you believe me, let the child drink this medicine. It's the medicine your sister-in-law made before. She left some of it. It has a good fever-reducing effect."
The people in the pharmacy also looked at the medicine I brought with me.
After Doctor Dong put away the needle, he turned his eyes to the bowl of medicine.
The color is slightly yellow, but very transparent. What kind of medicine is this?
Most medicines are made by boiling medicinal ingredients for a long time, and their color is black.
But this medicine, they have only been in for a short while, but it has already worked, and it is clearly like sugar water.
Jiang Shun naturally trusted Shen Yuan, so he took the medicine and prepared to feed it to the child.
The apprentice beside him was unhappy.
"What kind of medicine are you taking? And it's in our pharmacy. If you get sick from it, who will be held responsible?"
Doctor Dong glanced at him.
"There are so many people outside and it's not enough for you to see. Get out quickly."
Doctor Dong was obviously dissatisfied and drove the apprentice out.
The apprentice muttered, "I am worried too. You can't just take random medicines..."
However, he did not dare to go against his master's wishes, so after saying this, he left quickly.
Doctor Dong has always believed that there are always people better than you.
During the previous plague, he read several prescriptions sent by the county magistrate. He heard that they were obtained from military doctors and the effects were really good.
If it weren't for those prescriptions, the plague like malaria would not have been so easily controlled.
There was also the previous anthelmintic, which was developed by a doctor in Daliushu Village. He even went to see Doctor Liu on purpose.
However, Doctor Liu said that the anthelmintic was not developed by him, but was a prescription given by a barefoot doctor.
So, no matter whether it is the imperial physician in the palace or an unknown barefoot doctor, he will not look down on anyone, as everyone may have his or her own strengths.
Jiang Shun has already given the medicine to the child.
After about a quarter of an hour, the child was sweating!
The sweat on my head almost soaked my hair.
"Retreat, retreat..."
Jiang Shun's wife touched the child's forehead, surprised, and thanked Shen Yuan and Su Wanwan profusely.
Doctor Dong was even more shocked. What kind of medicine is this? It works so quickly!
He also went forward to check and found that the child's fever had indeed subsided.
As long as you sweat, the fever will subside.
The child's sweat soaked his clothes.
"mother......."
The child was still young and could only call for his mother. When he woke up, he started crying loudly.
Jiang Shun and his wife held their child happily, as if they had survived a disaster.
"This fever has only subsided temporarily. It may come back in two or three hours. If it is a high fever, drink another packet of this medicine with warm water."
Su Wanwan had already wrapped the ibuprofen powder in paper and made three packets.
It's not good to take too much ibuprofen, as the side effects are too serious.
And you must wait six hours before taking the medicine again. You can take it if you have a high fever, but it is best to take Chinese medicine for a low fever. Su Wanwan explained all this clearly.
Fever will definitely recur. She had poor health when she was a child and had fever many times. She has gained experience from fever.
Of course, she didn't dare take out the anti-inflammatory drugs. After all, she didn't know the cause of the child's high fever, and the child looked only a year old, so she couldn't let the child take medicine without permission.
As long as the temperature is under control, Chinese medicine is the most effective. With Dr. Dong here, the child will definitely recover.
Doctor Dong was so curious after hearing her story that he couldn't help but stepped forward:
"Madam, I wonder what medicine you just used? Can I take a look?"
This fever-reducing effect is so good. If we can get more of it, I don’t know how many children’s lives will be saved.
Su Wanwan had long expected that the doctor would ask about it. After all, she had seen how dedicated and eager to learn doctors of this era were.
So she was not panicked at all and generously took out a bag for him.
