116: Weird dormitory

"Call your parents and have them come over immediately."

Upon hearing that his parents were to be called, Tong Xiao's tears streamed down again.

"Dr. Qin, do I really have to get my foot amputated? Is there any other way?"

"I play soccer, I don't want to be amputated!"

No wonder his feet smelled so bad; it turned out he played soccer.

Qin Jiang glanced at Tong Xiao.

"The most severe situation now is amputation, but conservative treatment is also an option."

"However, regardless of the treatment plan, I need to communicate with your parents because if surgery is required, a direct relative needs to accompany you."

"Call them quickly, don't waste time. Your current situation cannot be delayed."

Seeing Qin Jiang speak so seriously, Tong Xiao dared not waste any more words and quickly called his parents to come over.

Fifteen minutes later, the couple who received the call rushed to the clinic.

"Son, what happened to your foot? Why is it so serious that it needs amputation?"

Tongs Father was very agitated.

Because he had been cultivating Tong Xiao as a professional athlete since he was young.

Tong Xiao was able to get into such a good university because he was a sports student and was specially recruited.

Tong Xiao's academic performance had always been poor; he was simply not material for studying.

If his foot was also amputated, then his life would be over!

Tong Xiao looked at Qin Jiang and said, "Dr. Qin, my parents are here. You can say whatever you need to."

Qin Jiang nodded.

"Since your parents are here, I have a few questions I want to ask you, and you must answer me honestly."

Tong Xiao nodded.

"Dr. Qin, please ask."

"First question, do you usually smoke?"

As soon as Qin Jiang asked this question, Tong Xiao's scalp tingled.

No, you ask such a sensitive question first?

Before Tong Xiao could answer, Tongs Father quickly interjected:

"Impossible, my son is a soccer player, and his cardiopulmonary function is very important. How could he possibly smoke?"

Tong Xiao: ...

Tong Xiao was speechless.

That's the theory, but you said it so absolutely, it makes me very awkward!

Sure enough, the next second Qin Jiang said indifferently, "You are not him, how do you know if he smokes or not?"

"Tong Xiao, you answer me."

Seeing his father looking at him with sharp eyes, Tong Xiao said with a forced smile, "Occasionally."

As soon as Tong Xiao said this, Tongs Father looked incredulous.

"Tong Xiao, are you crazy!"

"Didn't I tell you before not to learn to smoke!"

"If you smoke and ruin your body, how will you get into the national team in the future!"

Tong Xiao said very aggrievedly:

"Dad, many people in our school team smoke, and their physical fitness hasn't declined much. There are even two people who are directly earmarked for professional clubs."

"Modern soccer is no longer about who plays better; it's about soft power."

"Smoking or not smoking really isn't a big problem."

Seeing that Tong Xiao still dared to argue, Tongs Father raised his hand to slap him.

Tong's Mother quickly stopped him.

"That's enough, the doctor is still asking our son questions. Why are you so agitated?"

"Even if you want to hit him, can't you wait until after he's seen the doctor?"

Under his wife's persuasion, Tongs Father finally calmed his angry emotions.

He glared fiercely at Tong Xiao, indicating that he would settle accounts with him later!

Tong Xiao originally thought this hurdle was over, but then Qin Jiang pressed on:

"You probably don't just smoke occasionally, do you? How many packs a day?"

Upon hearing Qin Jiang ask this, Tong Xiao's eyes widened instantly, and his teeth even chattered slightly.

"Dr. Qin, is... is this question important?"

"If you've figured out what my illness is, can't you just tell me directly?"

Qin Jiang shook his head.

"It's easy to identify the illness, but to know how it was caused, I need to ask in more detail to avoid any mishaps."

"What, is it inconvenient to say? Then I'll just prepare for your surgery now."

Seeing Qin Jiang actually get up to prepare, Tong Xiao quickly said:

"Convenient, convenient to say."

Tong Xiao gritted his teeth: "Two packs a day."

Tongs Father clutched his chest, nearly fainting from anger.

This kid just started college!

And he's involved in sports!

Two packs of cigarettes a day, if you smoke like that, can your cardiopulmonary function compare to others?

You'll be gasping for breath after two laps; how will you play soccer on the field then!

"Rebellious son, you are truly a rebellious son!"

If he hadn't been held back by his wife, Tongs Father, who had recovered, would have certainly used his belt to help Tong Xiao recall the good times of his childhood on the spot.

Tong Xiao was also on the verge of tears.

Who would have thought seeing a doctor would turn into this!

This doctor is poisonous!

Qin Jiang was clearly used to such scenes; he nodded, then said to Tong Xiao:

"I basically understand your situation now."

"Tell me again, when did your foot start turning black and purple? Do you remember?"

Qin Jiang originally thought this was a very simple question, but Tong Xiao scratched his face and couldn't answer for a long time.

"This... I really didn't notice."

"Hmm?" Qin Jiang looked puzzled.

"Don't you wash your feet and shower every day? How could you not notice?"

Tong Xiao said awkwardly, "Our school team has a lot of physical activity, and we sweat every day, so we simply can't keep up with showering and washing our feet."

"So I usually just go straight to bed after my sweat dries. I haven't taken off my socks in half a month."

Holy cow!

Qin Jiang was shocked.

"You mean you haven't showered or washed your feet in half a month?"

Tong Xiao nodded.

"It's too much trouble. After the sweat on your body dries, it's actually the same whether you wash or not; there's no difference."

Qin Jiang no longer knew what to say.

The netizens in the live stream were even more disgusted.

"I knew this Buddy's hair was in clumps; I thought it was dreadlocks, but it really is dreadlocks!"

"No, I can understand him not showering for half a month, but what's with him not taking off his socks for half a month? Don't his roommates smell it?"

"I think there's a big problem with their dorm. Think about the symptoms of the previous two patients; I can't even imagine the hygiene conditions of their dorm."

"Indeed, if everyone is messy, even if there's an odor, you wouldn't know where it's coming from. Maybe they just got used to it after smelling it so much."

"I feel like the stool under his butt can be replaced again. The patients coming in this time are really wearing out the stools."

Netizens all thought Tong Xiao not showering or washing his feet for half a month was too exaggerated.

And Qin Jiang was even more certain of his guess now.

He looked at Tong Xiao and said, "This is vasculitis caused by fungus."

"People who like to smoke have a high probability of getting vasculitis."

"Plus, since you never wash your feet or shower, once the fungus infects, the blood vessels in your feet also get infected."

"From your current situation, it's either amputation or conservative treatment. I'll use plaster to scrape and bleed you."

"You choose."
