Chapter 251: Chapter 167: Donations Explode, Visitors from the Capital Arrive!

"Take him for an osmotic pressure and serum sodium test, plus a kidney CT."

Qin Feng put down the test report and said to Su Cheng.

"Okay."

Su Cheng nodded in agreement, then stood up and looked at the young man,

"Let’s go, come with me for another checkup."

"Another checkup?"

The young man was taken aback by the words and couldn’t help feeling a bit scared,

"Doctor, am I... am I okay?"

"There’s something wrong, hurry and go for the checkup."

Qin Feng said seriously.

The young man couldn’t help but shiver upon hearing this, and quickly followed Su Cheng out.

Qin Feng took another look at all the examinations and could already reach a conclusion.

Water intoxication!

Also known as dilutional hyponatremia, it is a disease very rarely seen clinically.

It often occurs as a complication of other diseases, such as kidney dysfunction, excessive secretion of antidiuretic hormone (ADH), etc.

It is nearly impossible to appear as an independent disease unless it is caused artificially.

That is, drinking water!

The human body consists of about 60%-70% water, and under normal circumstances, it takes about 5-7 days for the body to go through a complete water metabolism cycle through external water intake.

For some people who drink less water, it may take about 2 weeks to complete a body’s water metabolism.

Therefore, water intoxication is simply not something that would happen to a normal person.

There is only one possibility: when the total water intake greatly exceeds the amount of water expelled, causing water to accumulate in the body, leading to decreased plasma osmotic pressure and increased circulating blood volume.

In the simplest terms, drinking far more water than the body’s excretion rate, leading to a large amount of water accumulating in the body.

The symptoms depend on the speed and extent of the excess water, which can be categorized into acute water intoxication and chronic water intoxication.

Mild cases can be corrected by stopping water intake and eliminating excess body water, while severe cases can lead to permanent damage to the nervous system or even death!

So, drinking too much water is not a good thing.

In other words, nothing should be excessive.

Just like the previous cherry girl and persimmon man cases, anything consumed in excess is bound to cause major issues!

With Qin Feng’s arrangement, the tests were quickly done.

Su Cheng brought the young man back and handed the test report to him.

Qin Feng glanced at it; the kidneys were still normal for now, but the plasma osmotic pressure had already dropped to 230 mOsm/L.

"Water intoxication."

Qin Feng handed the report to Su Cheng, nodded, and said in a deep voice.

"Is it really water intoxication?"

Su Cheng couldn’t help but be a little surprised upon hearing this, it was just too bizarre!

Even though he could roughly diagnose it after seeing the test report and hearing the patient’s description, he still felt shocked.

Having been a doctor for so long, this was the first time he encountered a living case of water intoxication.

And it was indeed caused by drinking too much water!

Truly a once-in-a-lifetime sight!

"Water... water intoxication?"

The young man was stunned upon hearing this, his expression instantly filled with doubt and surprise,

"I thought drinking more water was supposed to be good? How could it lead to intoxication? Damn!"

As soon as he said this, it was as if he thought of something and shouted loudly,

"It must be the water’s problem! Doctor, is there poison in the water I drank? I want to sue Hengtai Company!"

Having said this, he was fuming and looked determined not to let go.

Qin Feng and Su Cheng exchanged a glance, explaining with a helpless expression.

The fear of ignorance~~~

"Well, it has nothing to do with the mineral water, it’s you who drank too much water."

Su Cheng quickly explained, but before he could finish, the young man raised his hand to interrupt him.

"Doctor, don’t say anything more, if I can get intoxicated by drinking water, it must be the water’s problem! I’m going back to seal up the rest now, that’s the evidence."

With that, the young man strode towards the exit, and Su Cheng quickly stood up to stop him.

Suddenly,

Just as the young man’s foot stepped out of the clinic door, he immediately went rigid, his eyes rolled back as he straightened and fell to the ground, beginning to convulse.

"Oh no! Get someone here quickly."

Qin Feng immediately jumped up from his chair and said.

Su Cheng also dashed out of the clinic like lightning, and along with Nurse Chief Liu brought a stretcher.

"Dilutional hyponatremia, intravenous injection of sodium chloride, establish an intravenous line to accelerate water drainage with 5% sodium chloride supplementation, closely monitor changes in cardiac and pulmonary function, etc.

Additionally, watch out for potassium metabolism disorders and acidosis, no water for 24 hours!"

Qin Feng immediately arranged.

Nurse Chief Liu nodded in response and hurriedly pushed the patient away.

"Phew~"

Qin Feng finally breathed a sigh of relief, shaking his head with a helpless smile.

Fortunately, the patient had been consuming excess water for a long time and had just developed hypotonic syndrome.

If it had been an acute severe case, it would have been more dangerous, even seriously damaging the nerves!

Sigh~

....

After more than ten minutes, learning that the patient’s water intoxication had stabilized, he left as well.

As soon as he returned to the office, the entire medical office was in an uproar!

"Director Qin is amazing! Trending number one on Weibo!"

"The video play count on Douyin and Xianyu also exceeded ten million, with over five million likes!"

"I just refreshed Director Qin’s Weibo, and the followers increased by ten thousand every second! That’s terrifying! Now it’s over 30 million!"

"Our city’s First Hospital has produced a super internet celebrity, Director Qin is truly impressive!"

All the staff in the medical office were excited beyond control, unable to stop themselves from shouting loudly.

And Director Su, seeing more and more comments on the hospital website’s forum, tens of thousands of them, all about Qin Feng and the firefighters, was speechless with surprise.

At forty or fifty years old, he was originally not interested in internet celebrity culture.

Even found it disgusting~
