Seeing the woman complain so much, Zhang Hao reached out and gently pressed on the swollen area.
"I didn't even use much force," the woman suddenly exclaimed, "Ouch, it hurts so much, Doctor, be gentler, will you?"
Zhang Hao looked up at her and saw her frowning slightly.
"I haven't even applied much pressure yet. It seems the swelling has been there for some time. Fortunately, it's not a bone issue, but setting the bone is still a bit painful."
The friend who had accompanied her suddenly had an idea, "Doctor, is it possible to use an anesthetic? If you apply an anesthetic before setting the bone, wouldn't it hurt less?"
Zhang Hao shook his head, "The pain from bone setting is only momentary; a quick bite on the teeth, and it's over."
"Anesthetics are not good for the body if used too often. How about I give you a piece of gauze to bite on?"
The woman looked at her ankle, swollen like bread.
