C165 Almost Crippled (1/2)

However, Chu Dong carelessly said without a care, ”It's fine! Why did fingers need to be so nimble? As long as you can use it. ”

”That was easy!” Lee Yifann rolled her eyes at him, and said snappily: ”Wait until you can't even hold onto the chopsticks steadily, then you won't say such words.”

”What?” Chu Dong, who was originally not too concerned, became anxious when he heard this. ”You said I can't hold onto anything in the future? It can't be? Is it that serious? ”

Yu Hee frowned, ”It should not be that serious. His left hand was injured, and he didn't use his left hand to grab his chopsticks. ”

”He doesn't need to use his left hand to pick up the chopsticks, but if he doesn't treat his left hand properly, he won't be able to use much strength in the future and he won't be able to hold onto things steadily. It's as good as crippling his left hand.”

Lee Yifann patiently explained, but he did not exaggerate anything. The reason why a human's hands could grasp things so easily and nimbly was because of the dense, densely packed nerves in it. Damage to the nerve tissue represents a corresponding loss of part of the hand's function.

Unsteady grasping, low sensitivity, are all common symptoms.

This is why many surgeons, once their hands are injured, end their careers.

Although Chu Dong was injured on his left hand, it was impossible for a person to rely on his right hand in their daily lives. For example, one needed two hands to carry a box.

”This …” Chu Dong's heart instantly turned cold, ”This, I won't become a cripple in the future will I?”

If one's left hand could never exert any strength, then it would really be no different from a cripple.

”You're nervous now? How come I didn't notice when we were fighting? ” Lee Yifann did not know what else to say, ”Don't blame me for not reminding you, but your hand should be considered to have recovered from the injuries on the outside. If your nerve tissue is unable to heal, not only will your flexibility be reduced, your reaction speed might also be reduced.”

”Nerve reaction speed? What is that? ” The few of them were confused.

”Let me put it another way, when a person touches something with his finger, the feeling can be felt whether it is hot or cold, smooth or knotted. It is the nerves on the fingers that react to the sensation in the brain, and the judgment made by the brain can then be transmitted back to the end of the nerve, ordering your body to react. Normal people reacted very quickly. It was only for a few seconds. But you, Chu Dong, if your left hand's reaction speed is slower, for example, if you touch something hot, the moment others touch it, they would retract their hand to protect themselves, and if your reaction speed is not fast enough, your hand would probably burn until it reaches your brain to react. ”

It might be exaggerated to have a well-done hand, but it was enough to see how important it was to have a fast and slow neural response.

When Yu Hee and Yu Rong heard it, they couldn't help but look at Chu Dong. Seeing his bitter face, they urgently asked: ”Then, then can I treat this hand of mine? You must help me! I know you're a doctor! ”

He did not want his hands to be so slow and useless in the future.

”I can treat the injuries on your hand on the surface, but I can't completely confirm the damage to your nerve tissue. You need to take a film to examine it before you can treat it,” Lee Yifann said as he took a deep breath.

With his current medical skills, it wasn't difficult for him to treat normal injuries. However, it was a bit of a strain on a patient with a neurological condition.

In modern medicine, neuroscience could be said to be the hardest subject to study, not only because of its complexity, but also because the nervous tissue of the human body was very fragile and sensitive.

”I …” Chu Dong's face became even uglier.

He really did not want to lose his left hand. When he thought about how he would become a one-armed man in the future, he could not help but panic.

Lee Yifann patted his shoulder, ”Don't be so dejected, the situation isn't as bad as you think. It's just that there is a possibility that your hands will lose power, but that doesn't mean you will be crippled for sure. ”If you treat him well, he can still recover his health.”
