The medical team was so busy they didn't even have time for lunch. Luo Qiao took over the treatment of a patient whose lower leg had become infected after an injury. It hadn't been serious at first, but because it was neglected, it had become particularly severe now.
Yesterday, the patient's family had brought him to the commune health center, but the doctor there didn't dare treat him, because it involved debriding the necrotic tissue and there was a fear of damaging the nerves. Knowing that a medical team from Capital City was coming down in the evening to offer free consultations, they took him back home.
They came a bit late today and ended up in Luo Qiao's team by chance. After examining the patient, Luo Qiao instructed the family to take him to the temporary treatment room behind them, "A few more days and this leg might have been beyond saving."
After hearing this, the family member was scared: "Doctor, you must save my son, he's not even married yet."
