100 Divine Doctor In The Slum 3 (2/2)
It was not the method Ganghyuk liked.
To coerce an enemy with status and wealth.
However, he knew it was the most effective and quick method he could utilize at the moment.
Especially to the one who had the heart of a chicken.
”Then be quiet and stay still there if you don't want to have your head severed.”
”Yes, yes.”
Dongpa went to a corner.
He could not sit properly because of the patient's vomit.
”Eup!”
Ganghyuk looked at the patient, ignoring Dongpa.
He frowned, covering his eyes and head with his hands.
”Painful?”
”Yes, yes.”
The patient noticed Ganghyuk was a n.o.bleman.
He thought Ganghyuk must be a n.o.bleman from Hanyang.
If not, why would Dongpa cower on the corner and stayed still?
”Uncover your eyes. I need to see.”
”Too painful.”
”I know, but the pain would not go away by covering your eyes.”
”Yes, yes.
The patient removed his hands from his eyes as if the eyeb.a.l.l.s would come out without his hands.
Only then could Ganghyuk observe his eyes properly.
”Your eyes are reddened.”
Yeoni asked.
”Sir, have you known what the problem is already?”
”Of course.”
Ganghyuk nodded his head with confidence.
Steroid, red eyes, pain in the eyeb.a.l.l.s, and headache accompanied by vomiting.
If he could not diagnose with these hits, he would not be a doctor.
'Acute glaucoma, it might accompany angle closure.'
Glaucoma.
Glaucoma was a disease damaging the eye's optic nerve. It usually happened when fluid built up in the front part of the eye. That extra fluid increased the pressure in the eye, damaging the optic nerve.
Therefore, the remedy for this disease was to lower the pressure.
However, it was quite difficult to achieve.
”Sir, I have the book.”
Dolseok came in the room with Yeoju.
He was breathless. He must have run quickly.
The book had 'Herbal Medicine' on the cover.
Ganghyuk received the book and searched the page he wanted.
As he had read the book quite often, he could find the page he wanted posthaste.
”Diruresis…promoting urination. Ah, here. Oryeongsan.”
”Shall we make Oryeongsan?”
”Yes, we need Taeksa, Jeoryeong, Baikchul, Bokryeong, and Yukgye. These five ingredients will make Oryeongsan.”
”Yes, I remember. I will make it right away.”
Yeoju nodded her head pointing the medicine.
Although Dolseok and Yeoni were clever and experienced, they could not read the Chinese characters in the book.
Therefore, looking for the herbs and making medicine according to the prescription was Yeoju's job.
”Egugu”
Ganghyuk found the cause and the remedy.
But the pain of the patient continued as he did not do anything so far.
”Be patient, they will make the medicine soon.”
”Yes, yes, Aigo.”
”They are coming. They are really quick.”
Yeoju and Dolseok came with the medicine.
He gave it to the patient.
”Drink it. It will make you feel better.”
”Yes, sir.”
The patient drank the medicine.
Ganghyuk nodded his head watching him drinking Oryeongsan.
'He would soon be better.'
Oryeongsan was quite a strong urination promoting agent.
He made a few experiments and clinical tests to check its efficacy.
Therefore, he was confident it could reduce eye pressure.
However, it would not be enough to remove the symptoms completely.
”Eo, it is better.”
The patient murmured with a brighter face.
He still frowned though.
He showed satisfaction on his face, but soon, he spoke hesitantly.
”Sir, I…I would like to go to the toilet.”
”Yes, you can go.”
”Thank you, sir.”
When the patient came back after a while, he looked much better.
He bent his body to Ganghyuk.
”Thank you, sir. I thought I would die.”
”Yes, how do you feel now?”
”Good, sir. You saved me.”
”But you must still be feeling pain, right?”
Ganghyuk asked pointing at his eyes.
They were still red.
”Yes, yes, sir.”
”Yes, you must have pain. Your disease is not trivial.”
”Then?”
”As time goes by, the pain will return. If you leave it long, you will lose your eyesight.”
”Becoming a blind? No, sir. Please help me.”
The patient shuddered as if he had been sentenced to death.
It was Joseon when the disabled were severely discriminated.
Even in the 21st, century, it was not easy for a blind person to live a satisfactory life.
”There is a way.”
”Really?”
”But it is difficult to…”
”I will do anything, sir.”
Ganghyuk looked at the patients bowing to him.
'Ah, I am not good at eyes, and I do not have a laser, here.”
He had never done eye operation.
He had never seen the operation scene either. Even on YouTube.
It was not the area of his interest.
However, how could he leave the patient to be blind?
Ganghyuk asked him without much expectation.
”I might need to make a hole in your eye. Can you do that?”
