TENS, or transcutaneous electrical stimulation.

Through electrical stimulation, the body's own endogenous opioid peptides are activated, while the thick fiber nerves in the painful area are stimulated, and the analgesic effect is produced by the mechanism of valve theory.

This therapy can even completely cure the neuralgia caused by herpes zoster of the first branch of the trigeminal nerve, and has a significant effect on various types of postoperative stubborn incision pain.

It is perfect for Xiang Kai.

Soon, a new treatment plan was formulated.

In addition to transcutaneous electrical stimulation, Xu Qiu also added antispasmodics, neurotoxins and other drugs for combined use.

Xiang Kai's condition improved visibly, and the severe pain that had not been relieved finally gradually disappeared.

Three days after the diagnosis, Xiang Kai's father came.

At the same time, a large family came with him. Xiang Kai's grandparents and others were all ashamed and kept apologizing to Lu Ruping.

Her husband also smiled and said, "I'm sorry, if you hadn't insisted, Xiaokai's condition would have been delayed..."

Lv Ruping, who had cried several times in front of Xu Qiu and others, nodded silently this time with a stern face.

"He will be discharged from the hospital almost tomorrow." Xu Qiu glanced at the condition.

Xiang Kai's condition is getting more and more stable, and his allodynia has been gradually suppressed. There is no need to stay in the hospital.

After being discharged from the hospital, he will be able to recover as usual within a few years.

Although complex regional pain syndrome is rare, its treatment is not as vague as proxy syndrome. At least complex pain has a clear clinical guideline. The combination of electrical stimulation + drug treatment + daily intensive training has a very good prognosis.

As long as the development is not delayed and the limbs are not balanced, there will be no sequelae.

If it weren't for Lu Ruping's insistence, Xiang Kai might have missed the golden treatment time.

But that night, the accident happened again.

Unimaginable pain returned to Xiang Kai again. This time the pain was more rapid and more difficult to control than any previous time.

The painkillers were gradually increased, and the highest-grade morphine drugs were used, but the pain still could not be relieved!

Xu Qiu rushed over after hearing the news, and before he could check the situation, he saw the family members outside the ward arguing.

Lv Ruping was caught in the middle, with a frosty face and an expression full of unfamiliar indifference.

In Xu Qiu's impression, this was a strong mother with a soft heart, but the side she showed now was something he had never seen before.

Around Lv Ruping, her husband, parents-in-law and mother-in-law all had their hands on their waists, full of complaints.

The husband said, "You don't believe the diagnosis of the doctor at the Union Medical College. What do you think of coming to this remote hospital for treatment?"

Xiang Kai's grandfather also had a gloomy face, and his voice was like dull iron. He snorted coldly: "He must have used some painkillers to suppress the pain and lied to us that it was cured. If it weren't for tonight, we might really be deceived."

"The doctor is here." At this time, Xiang Kai's grandmother noticed Xu Qiu.

She was immediately furious and walked towards Xu Qiu angrily.

"What are you going to do?"

Jiang Mai, Wang Fan and others on duty protected Xu Qiu behind them.

Just kidding, anyone can move the doctor, but not this thigh!

"You..." Looking at the tall and dark-skinned Jiang Mai, the old lady took two steps back in fear, and she became even more annoyed.

"You are doctors, do you want to hit people?" Lu Ruping's husband stood up, with his hands on his waist, the blue veins on his face burst out, and his expression was quite ferocious.

Jiang Mai glanced at him silently.

What you said... Your family members want to harm Doctor Xu as soon as they have a disagreement, so can't we defend ourselves?

At this tense moment, Lu Ruping, who had been keeping her head down and not talking back, pushed aside her parents-in-law and husband in front of her and walked over.

Jiang Mai and Wang Fan hesitated for a moment, looked back at Xu Qiu, and saw the latter nodded slightly, so they made way.

Lu Ruping clenched her fists and said apologetically: "Doctor Xu, I'm sorry, you have also been implicated..."

Xu Qiu nodded indifferently.

In this line of work, some people accuse people of being black-hearted for curing the disease with a single medicine. For this kind of recurring disease, there are more unwarranted disasters.

"Let's go see the patient first." Xu Qiu said.

Compared with these meaningless emotional venting, he is more concerned about why the recurrence occurred.

Although he hasn't seen Xiang Kai yet, Xu Qiu already has a bad premonition in his heart.

Logically, this treatment plan should be able to control the hyperalgesia. If it doesn't work, we can only consider nerve-destructive drugs, nerve destruction or sympathetic nerve removal.

...

In the ward.

Xiang Kai was already curled up in bed in pain. The bed sheet had a human-shaped sweat stain, and his injured leg was cramping.

The patients in other beds looked over and sympathized with the mother and daughter.

"This child..."

"Doctor Xu, please take a look at him."

"With Doctor Xu here, the problem is not serious. Before I came, my condition was much more serious than this child's, and now we can chat happily."

"If I ask you, the other people in this family are too much. The child's mother is running around alone. It's fine if they don't support her, but they keep finding faults. If the child is cured, they will thank his wife and daughter-in-law. If the child is not cured, they will scold him, "It's all your fault!"

Hearing these words, Lu Ruping's cold pupils showed a trace of emotion, and the next moment her nose was sour.

What people fear most is care. She can always put on armor in the face of her family's suspicion and blame, but the kindness of strangers can hit the softest corner of her heart.

"The pain symptoms are only temporary improvements. The condition has been delayed for too long and is somewhat uncontrollable."

At this time, Xu Qiu also finished the assessment.

Lv Ruping's face changed, and she asked hurriedly: "What should I do, Doctor Xu, is there any hope for my son?"

Before Xu Qiu answered, Lv Ruping, who was standing in front of the bed, suddenly covered her eyes in pain.

The next moment, she felt dizzy and her body staggered and was about to fall.

Fortunately, Xu Qiu supported her in time.

"Can't stand steadily?"

Xu Qiu felt that Lv Ruping was weak, so he asked her to hold the edge of the bed and slowly sit on the ground.

However, the situation did not improve. Lv Ruping's expression gradually became terrified. She opened her eyes wide and looked around in horror, but her pupils shook violently as if they had lost focus...

"This is..." Xu Qiu had a bad premonition.

Sure enough, the next moment, Lv Ruping's panicked shouting rang out, her hands scrabbling in the air, and she said in horror: "I, I can't see!"

The ward suddenly became quiet.

All the patients' eyes fell on Lv Ruping, with worry, surprise, and sympathy.

Outside the ward, the family members who were shouting that they would call the Health Commission to report Xu Qiu were also stunned.

Lv Ruping's husband saw this and pointed at his wife who was sitting on the ground and scolded: "Don't make trouble for me. The child is in trouble now. Do you think you can get away with it by pretending to be sick?"
