Dark-Haired British Doctor - Chapter 99



Only Noblemtl

Episode 99: Wuthering Heights… … ? [3]

A wound is a wound… … .

Wouldn’t the most urgent thing be rabies?

If you think about common sense, Emily Brontë died around 30, so it seems unlikely that she died from rabies… … .

When a person gets seriously ill, isn’t his body bound to become weak?

‘My father doesn’t seem particularly rich.’

Of course, if there is sufficient nutrition and medical services, and if the child is young, it may be possible to fully recover.

This was the 19th century.

A world where even royal families are dying… … .

Isn’t it obvious even without looking at what kind of life a person from a family of fallen priests would lead?

‘what… … After doing this, I probably contracted tuberculosis later.’

If you ask us to choose infectious diseases that are inseparable from humanity, aren’t there a few that jump out?

It is no exaggeration to say that these diseases have been largely conquered now, but… … .

Anyway, if we were to list down the diseases that were prevalent at that time, there would be flu, tuberculosis, syphilis, and malaria.

These are all diseases that have had a huge impact on human history, so I wonder how much of an impact they must have had on an individual’s life.

“Let’s go. “Let’s see how skinny you are.”

“Oh, yes. But is that really effective? “It should have an effect beyond just losing.”

So I cleaned up my wounds as best I could and got into the carriage.

Liston was not with us.

This person has over 6 limbs that need to be amputated today.

I don’t know if I should say I’m glad… … .

Since he had already built up a reputation that made it difficult for him to become even more famous, he was no longer seen in the square.

Of course, since there is no separate operating room, the cutting is performed in the classroom… … .

Wouldn’t there be less risk of infection compared to cutting it completely outside?

‘The other day, it rained while we were cutting.’

it’s rain

If it were rain falling in a rural area, you would have faith that it would be clean water, but this was London.

There were chimneys all over the place, and black smoke was rising from every single one.

In the 21st century, we made a fuss about acid rain and whatnot… … .

The rain that falls here is German, probably.

“I think so. At least it would be much better than losing.”

“If you are, then yes. Okay, have a nice trip. “Rabies is not my business anyway.”

“yes.”

“ah.”

“yes?”

“If the inflammation gets worse, I’ll cut it out, so don’t worry.”

“ah… … yes… … .”

Okay, how many times have tetanus been caused by a dog bite?

Even if that weren’t the case, you’d probably end up with all sorts of strange infections, right?

In an era where there was no concept of disinfection, let alone antibiotics, Liston’s role was bound to be critical.

‘Anyway, I can’t believe you’re thinking about cutting off your baby.’

Was Emily Brontë one-armed?

I don’t know much, so this is what I need to know.

Hoping it wasn’t the case, I took a carriage and headed out to the outskirts of London.

If it were like any other day, there would have been a very high chance of drizzling rain… … .

Fortunately, the villa we arrived at was dry enough to be described as crunchy.

Anyway, the sun is better here than in London.

‘Bread rots in humid London, here brains dry…’ … Let’s go two-track first.’

As I climbed up the ladder and onto the roof in a state of glee, I felt a little sad.

oh my god!

Rotten bread and dried brains.

How is this any different from the herbs used by witches who dominated the Middle Ages?

If I lose my mind even for a moment, I think I’ll sneak in something like bat poop without realizing it… … .

“hmm. It’s crunchy. Hmm. hmm… … “Is this okay?”

Since I couldn’t do that, I came down holding my dried brain and medulla, holding on to my sanity.

The coachman, who was watching this, clicked his tongue for a moment.

The reason is… … .

It’s obvious, right?

Just looking at her, she looks like a medieval witch, right?

If I had been the only one to say that I would feed something like that to patients… … Wouldn’t he have been hung upside down on a cross?

‘Dr. Liston… … thank you… … .’

The coachman was probably so scared of that person that he couldn’t even say anything.

Anyway, I took it and got back into the carriage.

“Let’s go.”

“uh… … yes. That’s medicine… … “It’s medicine, right?”

“yes.”

Nevertheless, the coachman kept asking.

In fact, even I felt like my confidence was fading.

because.

no, this… … Why does it look like this?

Is it because I’m so good at dissection that I came across it almost in its original shape?

This really only looks like dried brain and medulla oblongata.

Feed this to people… … .

Even for people who are very sick… … ?

‘Louis Pasteur… … ‘Did you really feed me like this?’

When you think of Pasteur, most people think of milk.

From the perspective of medical history, isn’t he really an amazing person?

A person like that… … ?

“oh. “It looks like you’ll hear something well.”

“therefore. Hmm… … “I think it’s somehow good for your health.”

While I was thinking that, I found myself in a hospital.

London is a city so congested that the term “traffic jam” already exists, but since it is social season and all the rich, aspiring to be rich, or those in doubt are out in the countryside, there are no horse-drawn carriages.

That didn’t mean there weren’t people on the roadside.

There were many workers walking around with mesmerized faces.

-Get out of the way!

At this time, workers were synonymous with the weak, so it was difficult to get in the way of the carriage.

I don’t know if I can say this is thanks to me… … .

Anyway, I came early and was able to meet our proud 19th century doctors.

And they were amazed when they saw the brain and medulla oblongata of this dog that I brought with me.

“Do you really think so? “You’re not saying that because of me, are you?”

“No, really. “My mouth is watering.”

“Um… … .”

My mouth is watering… … ?

It was hard to just look at it as strange.

This period claims to be the age of science, but isn’t it actually the age of barbarism?

Superstitions were everywhere, and strange foods were everywhere.

And what’s really strange is that the idea that these strange things are good for your health was also widespread.

It’s crazy that these guys filmed a documentary called Mondogane in the 20th century, claiming that they introduced scientific thinking a little earlier, really.

“Well, I’m glad.”

Thinking that good things are good things.

Without this, how would a person in the 21st century who returned to the 19th century survive?

Forcibly and now half instinctively, I put aside the thoughts that had begun to linger in my head, said Naville, and turned to the patient.

I didn’t go to Emily first.

Wouldn’t the person who was bitten yesterday be more in a hurry?

He was bitten on his upper arm, not even his forearm.

‘The closer it is to the head, the faster it progresses.’

Ultimately, isn’t rabies a disease caused by a virus that targets the head?

That meant that preventive measures and treatment had to be done before the virus reached the head.

Even in the 21st century, anyone who gets bitten in the neck is expected to die, so there was no need to ask now.

Even if it’s not because of rabies… … .

Even considering local infection, it was dangerous if it was near the neck.

“eww… … .”

Anyway, the ward he was hospitalized in was an amputation ward.

If you think about it, this person was also the subject of experimental treatment, so he should have been in the lab, but in the meantime, this is what happened.

So, is it a good thing that Emily Brontë is now in a laboratory that can safely be called a VVIP room?

“Here too… … .”

Of course, I asked this guy, ‘Didn’t it go well?’ Since he wasn’t this damn crazy person, I started by offering words of comfort.

“It’s hard. Since it is an amputation ward… … “A lot of people are sick.”

“No, more than that… … .”

“And the patient is sick too, right?”

“yes yes.”

Since simply conveying words is something anyone can do, I conveyed the story and looked at the patient’s wounds at the same time.

Didn’t it add to the bite wound?

The only thing that came to mind was that it was like adding insult to injury.

Yesterday, for a moment, I was wondering if it would be better to control infection if Emily’s arms were also weak. Come out now.

Let’s fall behind.

‘My forehead is fine… … Severe local fever. but… … The skin barrier has been cooled down… … .’

It was only after seeing this that I remembered, I was in real trouble.

Okay, aren’t burns one of the biggest risk factors for infection?

The most powerful defense against infection is blood, but it was only natural that burns caused it to be damaged.

So, in other words, this patient went from being bitten to being bitten, and the entire area was a mess.

“Drink this first.”

Meanwhile, why the fuck did they leave the bandages wrapped… … .

If I was going to wind it, I should have been conscientious about it and wound it with something clean.

Aside from that, it was a mess.

“Now, let’s take it off?”

“yes? “Uh, oh oh oh!”

The patient, who had maintained his sanity even after being bitten by a mad dog, and who had not fainted even when being stabbed with a pharynx, has now lost consciousness.

It was like that even though I gave the willow tree water.

In fact, it was natural.

“Ugh.”

The bandage wasn’t just a bandage, it was just any cloth, and the patient’s torn skin was all over it.

It was only natural that I didn’t apply any ointment and just put a dry bandage on the affected area.

“Is this okay?”

It was such a mess that Joseph and Alfred, who saw it, asked:

No matter how you look at it, isn’t the place that was destroyed completely crushed?

“Are you okay?”

“no.”

“therefore… … If anyone has a bite wound, don’t support them… … .”

“that… … “I guess so.”

I didn’t even know that if the wound was small, losing might be the answer.

Otherwise, if the blood vessels are exposed and bleeding profusely, you have no time to worry, so you have to fight.

but… … A wound this wide should not have happened that way.

Anyway, no matter how you think about it, it’s strange to think that you’re trying to treat something and instead causing more damage.

Row after row.

Despite those thoughts, and even wondering if this patient would survive, I did my best to examine the wound.

Well, all I had to do was clean the wound with boiled and cooled water and check for internal damage… … .

“First of all, don’t cover it with anything. “Leave it like this.”

“Ugh!”

Even after wiping it away, it took some time before the patient woke up.

I was dripping with cold sweat.

It must have hurt.

Willow Tree If water has a pain-relieving effect, how strong is it?

“I’m sorry. But it was something that had to be done.”

“Ugh… … .”

The patient, stained with pain and anger, looked at me and tried to get angry, but it was in vain.

Joseph and Alfred grabbed his arms.

No, I only grabbed one arm.

I can’t move my other arm because it hurts.

“This is something that needs to be done too.”

I thrust dried dog meat into the patient who was tied up like that.
