Professor McGonagall took Tom to the school hospital and met Madame Pomfrey, the Hogwarts school doctor.
Madame Pomfrey's full name is Poppy Pomfrey. Although the students call her "the school doctor," her specific title is head nurse at Hogwarts Hospital. The first thing many people think of when they think of the school hospital is "not professional enough." In fact, in most people's eyes, there is no trustworthy hospital that is not a tertiary hospital.
The Hogwarts school hospital is highly specialized and well equipped to treat most common illnesses and magical wounds, even if the bones in an arm disappear, Madam Pomfrey can easily regrow them. Only in the most serious cases, such as a powerful black magic curse, are patients sent to St. Mungo's Hospital for additional treatment for magical wounds.
Madame Pomfrey is an elegantly dressed, middle-aged woman with a kind face. She was dressed in a Nightingale nurse's uniform from the 1860s, complete with top hat, high collar and long apron.
She first examined Tom's wounds and then cast a few healing spells on him, healing the minor wounds, but the shoulder wound was too severe to be healed with ordinary healing magic.
Madam Pomfrey looked at Tom's shoulder and frowned, "How did you hurt yourself so badly? The right side is a penetrating wound, the left side is shattered," she looked at Professor McGonagall, "Did a student do it to you?"
Tom and Professor McGonagall shook their heads simultaneously. Madam Pomfrey saw that they had no intention of talking, so she asked no further questions. Madam Pomfrey rarely asked questions, and when Ron had been bitten by Norbert before, she hadn't bothered to find out where the wound came from, even if Ron's claim of a "dog bite" was outrageous.
Madam Pomfrey looked at Tom's wounds and said, "Of course I can fix you up, but boy, you're going to be in a lot of pain," she said, looking grim, "But you're definitely going to have to stay here tonight, not just today, you'll be in the hospital for a while."
He prepared pajamas for Tom, and then began to explain the procedure to heal him, "The bones in your shoulder are so fragmented that there is hardly any bone left, they are all broken into small fragments, some embedded in ligaments, muscles, nerves, and almost impossible to restore with magic spells, so first he used magic to remove the big pieces, then I use magic potions to remove the small fragments, and finally then I use magic to remove the small fragments and finally let the bone grow back. As for penetrating wounds, it is a minor problem, and can be solved with a simple ointment."
"It's a very painful process, my boy, but it's the quickest and most effective way, and leaves no residual effects." Madam Pomfrey was very frank in telling Tom what was going to happen to him, and Tom accepted it without reservation.
Madam Pomfrey then took out her wand, twirled it twice and pointed it at Tom's shoulder, who experienced a strange and unpleasant sensation, as if something had been taken out of him. Apparently, all the large bone fragments had been removed from his shoulder and Tom's pain had lessened considerably.
To be honest, if it hadn't been for the title of "Devil Dog," he would have been rolling around in pain.
Madam Pomfrey, the school doctor, gave Tom two more doses of a special ointment, one to rub on his left shoulder. After applying it, Tom felt as if he had applied safflower oil after exercising, and his entire shoulder was warm. He applied another dose to the wound that had been penetrated, and the sensation of this ointment caused itching.
Madam Pomfrey watched him apply the ointment and then left, as she marveled at Tom's injuries: she had never seen a young wizard who could injure himself like that.
Of course, she also forced Tom to go to bed early and refused a whole series of requests to visit. In the school hospital, Madam Pomfrey's word was the absolute authority, even if Dumbledore came. The headmaster's authority was only worth about five minutes of visiting time.
Throughout the night, Tom suffered from a warm, tingling sensation, and probably his delusion was that he could even see smoke coming from his shoulder, the ointment completely disintegrated countless bone fragments, and new flesh could be seen growing on the penetrating wound.
Finally, after an unknown length of time, the sensation of heat subsided and Tom fell asleep. When he awoke the next morning, his body no longer ached, except that he could not move an arm at all, or even feel it.
The bone in his left shoulder had been completely removed.
Madam Pomfrey came in the morning and was very pleased with Tom's condition. She gave Tom a magic potion and made him drink it, which, on entering his mouth and throat, seemed to burn and made him cough.
After drinking it, Tom fell asleep again. But a few hours later, he preferred to be unconscious, as he woke up in pain, with what seemed like a million shards of glass cutting into his shoulder, even with the help of the title, it wasn't pleasant.
He couldn't help but grunt. The sound attracted Madam Pomfrey.
"It's good that it hurts, the bones are growing. Here, drink this, it will make you feel better." With that, she brought another potion and poured it for Tom.
The potion had a very good analgesic and sleeping effect, and Tom was soon asleep again. His injuries had taken a big hit. First of all, Hermione, who had been so worried when Professor McGonagall had taken Tom away and never returned, had almost fainted.
When she finally found Professor McGonagall, she learned that Tom was in the hospital. If Hermione had not been so respectful of the teachers, especially Professor McGonagall, she would have argued with her.
She later tried to visit him in the hospital, but Madam Pomfrey sent her away.
As news of Tom's injury spread, the second person to go into crisis was Captain Ritchie: Tom's injury had caused him to miss the all-important Quidditch match against Gryffindor!
The winner of the match between the two teams would decide the Quidditch Cup.
But even though the Batsman, Tom, was injured, Ravenclaw still had a full team, unlike Gryffindor, who would have been defeated if Harry had been injured.
The two teams faced each other and the match ended in a draw! Harry caught the Golden Snitch, but Ravenclaw was 150 points ahead. So it was goal difference in the previous match, and Gryffindor won the match because they had caught the Snitch more times and therefore had a greater point difference.
After several years, Gryffindor finally regained the Quidditch Cup. However, the House Cup is still up in the air: even with the Quidditch Cup, Gryffindor has yet to close the gap on Ravenclaw; after all, Ravenclaw has two relentless question-answering machines.
