Ingrid stuck out her tongue obediently as Dr. Sabine examined her. The doctor, with a stern expression, scolded Ingrid for biting her tongue.
"Ingrid, you must be more careful. Biting your tongue is not just a momentary inconvenience. It can be dangerous because the tongue is rich in blood vessels, and a severe bite could lead to excessive bleeding. Furthermore, there's a risk of infection," Dr. Sabine explained, her professional demeanor unwavering.
Ingrid winced slightly. "But I've done this a lot," she thought.
Dr. Sabine continued her examination, ensuring there were no further complications. "The mouth, despite being a small part of the body, is crucial for various functions, and injuries to it should not be taken lightly. Always be mindful of your well-being, especially in situations where your health could be compromised," she advised, finishing her examination.
