"I’ve discovered a problem."
After dividing the cake among everyone, Liu Banxia spoke up.
"Teacher Liu, I’m begging you, can’t we just skip the problem-solving and eat the cake first?" Liu Yiqing pleaded pitifully.
"Haha, eating cake doesn’t stop from finding problems." Liu Banxia chuckled, taking a bite.
"This cake is oversized, and the difficulty in making it must be high. Plus, there are quite a few fruits on top, suggesting more than just the six of you were involved."
Shi Lei raised his hand helplessly, "I didn’t know until later."
"Xu Yino, should I say a few words to my wife?" Liu Banxia turned to Xu Yino.
"Can’t you pretend you don’t know? Let us have a bit more fun?" Xu Yino said with a bitter face, taking out the phone from his pocket.
On the screen, Qiaoqiao was also holding Tang Dou, munching on cake.
"How did you figure it out? Was it because of the cake’s directions: east, south, west, north?" Qiaoqiao asked curiously.
"Woof woof woof..."
Hearing Qiaoqiao’s voice, Beifeng, who was playing nearby, started barking wildly.
"It’s obvious, right? Such a big cake is not sothing a store would sell casually, let alone a custom-made one tid perfectly." Liu Banxia said with a smile.
"Unless Mrs. Shi, Comrade Su Ying, lent a helping hand, it’s impossible to finish it in such a short ti. And the plan was obviously discussed late, since today was quite busy."
"Su Ying knows about it. You might as well be the mastermind. The key point is that the fruits on the cake are all my favorites; the six of them couldn’t have gotten such high-level intelligence."
"Master’s wife, see? It’s really hard to prepare a surprise for this old man." Xu Yino began to complain.
"This entire afternoon was nerve-wracking for us. And Teacher Liu had already figured it out long ago. He didn’t ask you directly either, just hovered around you, cutting into your at with a soft knife—very painful."
Everyone laughed at Xu Yino’s words.
But honestly speaking, one must admire Liu Banxia’s observation skills and his ability to imagine things. No wonder he’s so ticulous in diagnosing; he can analyze so many details from just a cake.
"Alright, hurry and eat, then let our brothers and sisters outside co in to enjoy it. It’s a joyous occasion, and everyone should have a share." Liu Banxia called out.
Xu Yino extended his hand.
"What do you want?" Liu Banxia asked.
"Didn’t you say there’d be fruits after the al? We need to buy so." Xu Yino said seriously.
"Charge it, and then go to your master’s wife for reimbursent. I’ve got no cash in my pocket." Liu Banxia said helplessly.
"Nuonuo, go ahead, I’ll send you a red envelope later." Qiaoqiao called out.
"Alright."
Xu Yino responded and happily led the team out.
"Qiaoqiao, help thank Sister Su." Liu Banxia said.
"Eh? Shouldn’t you call her sister-in-law?" Qiaoqiao asked curiously.
Liu Banxia glanced at Shi Lei nearby, "We’re family, not in cahoots with that guy."
This had everyone around laughing uncontrollably. Liu Banxia’s words were like his surgical scalpel, sharp and precise.
This was considered a big event at the ergency center, and everyone had a share. Not too much, not too little, just enough to eat.
And with Xu Yino leading the purchase of fruits, it turned out to be a proper celebration.
"Teacher Liu, Teacher Liu, I discovered a problem too." Liu Banxia was still hiding on the side chatting with Qiaoqiao when Liu Yiqing ran in again.
"Does the patient have new symptoms?" Liu Banxia asked.
Liu Yiqing nodded, "I’m not sure if it counts as new symptoms. Anyway, he was lying on the examination bed just now, and wanted to go to the bathroom."
"I noticed his expression changed when he got up. After asking, he said he might have gotten up too quickly and hurt himself, and it’s quite painful."
"Qiaoqiao, I need to go diagnose the patient. You play well with Tang Dou and her kids. Don’t stay up too late, sleep early." Liu Banxia reminded.
"Go ahead and get busy, I’ll take them to eat so fruits too." Qiaoqiao said before hanging up the call.
"Let’s go, still have work to do." Liu Banxia said after passing his phone to Xu Yino.
Xu Yino didn’t even have ti to eat cake and hurriedly followed him outside.
After a few minutes, the young man hurried back, and when he saw Liu Banxia leading people waiting by his examination bed, he was startled.
"Co, lift both hands high, raise them up like . Yes, keep raising." Liu Banxia said as he lifted his arms.
Although the patient didn’t know what this was for, he followed the instructions and raised his arms high. Slowly, his facial expression began to change, and he kept gasping for breath.
"It hurts, right? Let’s do another test. This ti don’t raise your arms, try touching your toes." Liu Banxia suggested.
The patient realized the seriousness of the issue and followed Liu Banxia’s instructions.
This ti it was even more severe than before, "Doctor, it hurts."
Liu Banxia nodded, "Lie down on the bed, but given the current situation, we can only ask your parents to co over."
"Don’t worry, we won’t tell them about your soccer playing. It should be a minor spinal developntal issue, but the upcoming tests are quite expensive, not sothing you can afford."
Hearing this, the patient nodded and quickly called ho.
Actually, he wasn’t concerned about playing soccer now, the two tests he just did clearly showed noticeable pain.
At first, he felt his problem was very serious and was scared, but hearing Liu Banxia say it’s due to financial reasons that parents need to be called, he felt sowhat relieved.
"Teacher Liu, have you diagnosed sothing?" Liu Yiqing asked after following Liu Banxia aside.
"It’s just a suspicion; it might need surgery." Liu Banxia replied with a frown.
"That serious?" Xu Yino added.
"Hmm... I’m guessing it could be Tethered Cord Syndro, or TCS. But let’s wait for the MRI to see the actual situation." Liu Banxia said.
"He didn’t ntion a possible condition, like occasional urinary incontinence or groin pain, which are also indications of Tethered Cord Syndro."
"This condition is troubleso, probably needing intervention from Teacher Wang or Director Xu from orthopedics. Let’s see if it’s congenital or acquired."
The six young mbers don’t know much about this condition. But this doesn’t affect their eagerness to learn, they can look it up in books.
Within less than an hour, the patient’s parents arrived, also looking anxious.
Liu Banxia waved them over and briefly described the situation.
"Doctor, what kind of tests need to be done?" the child’s father asked.
"Currently, the indications are quite clear. I want to do an MRI spinal cord imaging, which will help us see the spinal cord condition more clearly and check if it’s Tethered Cord Syndro." Liu Banxia explained.
"However, this kind of test is invasive, so we need your consent. From the X-ray, the bones seem fine, so now the most likely reason for the symptoms is spinal-related issues."
"Doctor, can this condition be treated?" the child’s mother asked.
"In normal circumstances, surgical intervention is possible. Personally, I lean towards primary causes, aning congenital reasons." Liu Banxia said.
"I won’t explain too much now; let’s conduct the tests first. After a diagnosis, I’ll explain more. There could be many potential symptoms, saying more now will only make you worry blindly."
"You need to help stabilize the child’s emotions. When I said to call you, he was already a bit scared. Even if it’s this condition, the prognosis is quite good. Let’s admit him first, and then we’ll conduct tests."
He can only comfort them this way. The reality is ever-changing, and we need to check the spinal canal’s spinal cord condition.
The child’s parents nodded, trying to relax their expressions, which wasn’t easy.
This is life; if you encounter this, it’s unpleasant for anyone.
"Teacher Liu, will the surgical outco really be good?" Liu Yiqing asked cautiously.
"It depends on the situation; there are too many causes." Liu Banxia replied.
"But generally, as long as the surgeon’s skills are excellent, there shouldn’t be a problem. If diagnosed, you’ll deserve thanks."
"This condition typically appears during growth phases and isn’t easily detected early, as symptoms aren’t nurous initially."
"It’s only when symptoms like urinary incontinence, high arches, foot inversion, or eversion beco obvious that attention is drawn."
"Especially for young patients with inadequate dical conditions, people might mistakenly think it’s due to deformity. This condition is best identified and treated early for better prognosis."
"You’re following along, so join the imaging procedure too. But control your emotions; your emotions can affect the patient’s family and the patient anyti."
Liu Yiqing’s face turned sullen; this task isn’t easy. It’s a test, possibly the big boss’s revenge.
Her emotions often show on her face, so this task is quite challenging.
But orders are orders, and she had no other choice. She thought of a small trick, wearing a mask to hide as much as possible.
Liu Banxia rubbed his face, even though the tests haven’t been done yet, the indication for this disease is already clear. Let’s see what caused it, whether it’s a lipoma or adhesion.
