Starting today, Christopher was required to visit the hospital for infusions over the next fourteen days. He would need to receive five to six bottles of medication each day.
In a rush, Christopher asked, “Doctor, can today’s medicine stop the itching? Honestly, it feels like I’m going to lose my mind from the itch right now. It’s incredibly irritating! I’m not sure what’s happening, but the more I scratch, the itchier it bes…”
The doctor replied, “It’s quite normal to experience such itching with this type of venereal disease. Given the ulcerations, suppurations, inmmations, and lesions in your private area, it’s understandable that you’re feeling so itchy and ufortable. However, you can takefort in knowing that the medication today will provide some relief.”
Continuing, the doctor said, “From this point forward, you should avoid seafood, spicy foods, alcohol, and smoking. Ignoring this advice will only worsen your condition.”
Upon hearing this, Christopher quickly eximed, “Doctor, I ate over ten pieces of abalone for lunch and drank more than half a catty of Moutai! Is that going to be a problem?”<h3 style="background-color:DodgerBlue">
The doctor’s expression turned serious. He responded, “Aren’t you concerned for your health? Do you realize that those foods are all stimnts? You even had seafood! You shouldn’t have touched anything like kelp!”
Feeling a bit defeated, Christopher admitted, “I didn’t know! If I had realized I had this disease, I wouldn’t have dared to eat or drink anything, even if someone threatened me…”
With a sigh, the doctor concluded, “Unfortunately, we cannot proceed with treatment today. You’ll need to go home.”
Anxious, Christopher pleaded, “Why can’t you start my treatment now, doctor? The itching is unbearable! Please, I need help before I scratch my skin raw!”
The doctor shook his head gently. “You need to understand that I have to administer a significant amount of antibiotics for this illness. How can I do that when you’ve just consumed alcohol? Have you heard of a disulfiram-like reaction? If I inject you with cephalosporin antibiotics now, you could have an immediate and potentially fatal reaction. So, do you want to endure the itching for another day, or risk your life?”
Christopher felt tears welling up. It was agonizing not to receive any medication for the relentless itching—wasn’t this akin to torture?
Desperately, he asked, “Doctor, could you at least prescribe some anti-itch medication? I can’t stand this any longer…”
With a sigh, the doctor responded, “I can provide a cleansing solution that may help relieve the itching. You can use it at home.”
He added, “Remember, you must avoid scratching your private area. It’s already inmed, and scratching will only exacerbate the problem. If the area bes more infected, you risk pus and blood that could spread bacteria, worsening your condition. If the rupture erges, it could lead to a serious infection and potentially sepsis, which is life-threatening.”
Christopher wiped away his tears. “This feels like a nightmare…how did I end up in this situation?”
The doctor sighed again. “Ultimately, personal hygiene is crucial. You need to be mindful and protect yourself in this aspect of life. Avoid seeking random encounters in the future.”
Christopher felt he couldn’t mention the person responsible for his illness, so he simply nodded in agreement. “Thank you, doctor. I understand…”
The doctor then inquired, “By the way, given your age, you should be married, correct?”
Christopher nodded slightly.
The doctor continued, “You should consider bringing your partner in for a check-up. This illness is highly contagious, and if you contracted it externally, you could easily pass it on to her when you return home.”
Christopher’s difort grew, along with a surge of anger. Infect her? He thought to himself, Damn it! She’s the one who gave me this disease! That wretched woman. He vowed that when he got home, he would confront her. <fn8abe> The source of th?s content is Find?Novel</fn8abe>
