Chapter 886 -887: This is a sociological issue!

Upon hearing Chen Cang’s words, the man panicked quite a bit!

After all, suddenly hearing that one has contracted gonorrhea is a very painful and even desperate situation for anyone.

This disease is not like a cold!

The man was even startled, his body covered in cold sweat!

“Doctor, could I die?”

Chen Cang was stumped by this question.

“Actually, if it’s just a common infection of gonococcus, as long as it’s diagnosed early and the clinical type is identified, early, sufficient, regulated, and comprehensive treatment usually yields quite good results,” Chen Cang gave a very official reply.

The source of this c𝐨ntent is freёnovelkiss.com.

However, the man’s face fell, “Doctor, what you mean is it’s still very dangerous, right?”

“Why not just tell me directly if it can be cured?”

Chen Cang couldn’t help but sigh!

This question you’re asking me is useless, you should be asking the lady who just gave you the gonococcus for free, where did she get her strain from!

Seeing the man in such a state, Chen Cang straightforwardly said, “To put it simply, it depends on where your gonococcus came from. If it’s just common gonococcus and not highly resistant, treatment is relatively straightforward.”

“But… if your gonococcus strain is imported, then it’s uncertain!”

This statement made the man’s head buzz, somewhat unable to comprehend.

“Doctor, please don’t joke around, is there…such a thing as imported strains?”

Even Ke was utterly confused while looking at Chen Cang, thinking bacteria could be imported?

Does that mean imported strains are more expensive than domestic ones?

Chen Cang couldn’t help but say, “Let me put it this way, most of the gonococcus strains in our country are of imported types.”

Indeed, what Chen Cang said was not nonsense but was based on the latest epidemiological research.

His mastery of sexually transmitted diseases made him exceedingly competent in this field!

In fact, before the liberation, gonorrhea was highly prevalent in the country.

But in the early days after liberation, gonorrhea ranked second among sexually transmitted diseases, and by the mid-1960s, it had been largely eradicated in China.

Chen Cang was quite proud of this fact; in the earlier years, our country’s control of sexually transmitted diseases had always been among the best globally.

However, with the reform and opening up of our country during the 1980s, gonorrhea was reintroduced from coastal to inland cities, and the incidence rate increased rapidly each year.

That was still manageable, as these returning strains of gonococcus progressed more slowly under national control.

But in some places abroad, the control was not good, and gonococcus belongs to a type of “evolving” bacterium with strong drug resistance.

To be honest, although it’s the same gonococcus, different strains pose different difficulties in treatment.

Thus, with a helpless glance at the man, Chen Cang directly stated,

“The gonococcus is also continuously evolving, and currently, many highly drug-resistant strains of gonococcus have appeared abroad.”

“If your infection source is from a foreigner, I can’t guarantee how long it will take to cure. However, if it’s domestic, the resistance isn’t very strong, and treatment is relatively easier.”

“Actually, not everything imported is better!” Chen Cang added.

Hearing this, the man was extremely anxious inside!

At the moment, where was he at ease? Previously, he was fine; his only source of infection now was that woman.

He frantically picked up the phone, “I have a question for you!”

The woman was startled, “What happened?”

“Have you ever been with a foreigner!” the man gritted his teeth as he spoke.

The woman was dumbfounded and seemed silent for a moment before hesitating and then asked, “Who told you? Lily or Lina?”

The man almost cried!

Damn it…

The man felt helpless, but at this time, saying anything was useless. Powerlessly, he said, “You really know how to play. You better check yourself for diseases.”

Then, the man hung up the phone.

To be honest, the man felt like he wanted to die.

How the man left, he himself did not know. Was he dispirited?

Having such a disease was truly difficult to discuss.

After the man had left, Ke cleaned up the place and then washed his hands several times.

Honestly, the most feared patients for hospital staff are those with severe infectious diseases and those with sexually transmitted diseases.

Many times, it’s hard to explain everything clearly.

This is why a comprehensive check for infectious diseases is routinely done before surgery because who can guarantee that no iatrogenic infection can occur during the procedure?

Occupational exposures have been increasing, making all medical staff more vigilant.

Ke couldn’t help asking, “Dr. Chen, is that disease very contagious?”

Chen Cang hesitated for a moment, “Currently, about 60 percent of sexually transmitted diseases in our country are gonorrhea, with more men affected than women!”

Ke was suddenly stunned, “Is it easier for men to contract the disease than women?”

Chen Cang shook his head and said with a wry smile, “No, if we talk epidemiologically, men can only get it through sexual transmission, and the chance of contracting it from a single encounter with an infected woman is only about 25 percent.”

“But it’s different for women; even non-sexual contact can lead to infection, such as through contaminated clothes, bedding, towels, bathtubs, and toilets.”

“So essentially, it’s easier for women to contract it, but it’s more conspicuous in men, typically manifesting acutely within 2 to 5 days, while most cases in women are overlooked, mistaken for inflammation, and by the time it’s discovered, it’s usually more troublesome.”

At that moment, Ke suddenly asked, “Then why are there more men than women?”

This question stumped Chen Cang as well!

Indeed!

This is a profound issue related to sociology.

Chen Cang thought for a long while but couldn’t help Ke with the answer.

Could it be that one infected woman could transmit it to several men?

If so…

Does that imply that quite a number of men are unfaithful?

And that unfaithful women continue being unfaithful, transmitting it to several unfaithful men.

Chen Cang shivered at the thought and shook his head; this was a deep question, not one for medicine, but rather… for sociology.

Chen Cang remarked, “Be careful when cleaning up this mess.”

Chen Cang had also washed his hands several times.

Actually, being a doctor is quite rewarding, but it’s somewhat hard on the hands, especially for a surgeon, having to wash hands before diagnosis and scrub up before surgery; Chen Cang felt his hands were weathered from long use.

Ke still didn’t understand and thought about consulting the nurses about it later.

It was just before midnight; for many, it was the start of the evening, the beginning of nightlife.

Chen Cang looked at the resplendent lights outside and couldn’t help but sigh.

Women should really protect themselves better, it’s best to bring your own supplies when staying in hotels…
