Medical road ahead

"Sorry! I scared you."

Seeing this, Pingguo quickly pulled up the mask again, and took a step back.

"No no."

Qiao Tan hurriedly waved his hands, pretending to be calm, "I'm just a little afraid of things that are too dense."

"Ha ha."

Ping Guo smiled and said, "Actually, I'm afraid too, so I seldom look in the mirror now."

Hearing this, Qiao Tan frowned slightly, stepped forward and pulled her back, and asked softly, "How did you get this disease?"

"I don't know either." Ping Guo smiled wryly and shook his head.

"When did it start? Junior high school?" Qiao Tan asked again.

Pingguo thought about it, "In the second semester of the fifth grade, I thought it was just a common rash at the time, so I didn't pay much attention to it. But when I was preparing for junior high school in the sixth grade, I found that these rashes were not cured, but even worse. Or take medicine, it doesn’t work.”

"So, you started seeking medical treatment everywhere after graduating from elementary school?" Qiao Tan guessed.

"more or less."

Pingguo nodded and recalled: "My mother thought I had some strange disease, and the hospital at that time did not give a clear diagnosis. Some said it was flat warts, some said it was miliary papules, and some said it was piloma. For this reason, my mother had no choice but to resign and took me to seek medical treatment across the country, just to find out what disease I had.

In order to save money, the whole family moved to their hometown in the countryside, leaving only my dad to find a bed in the unit dormitory and continue to work in City C.

Until two years later, I got a diagnosis report at a skin hospital in the capital, saying that I was suffering from a very rare skin disease - syringoma.

Although they gave me a diagnosis certificate, they couldn't do anything about my disease. They just prescribed some medicine and rubbed it on me, and said that the only way to remove these tumors was laser surgery.look……"

As she said that, she rolled up her sleeves, pointed to the row of scars left by the laser burns, and showed a painful expression, "The syringoma was removed, but it left a more terrifying mark than them. , Since then, even in hot weather, I dare not wear short-sleeved clothes anymore."

"I will definitely try to help you heal!"

Qiao Tan caressed the row of horrific scars, and swore an oath.

Afterwards, she turned down the work in hand and went straight to Zhang Xiaoling's consulting room with Pingguo.

After examining the flat pimples on her face, arms, and neck, Zhang Xiaoling asked, "How did the hospital diagnose you before? Was it a pathological biopsy?"

"Yes, skin pathology biopsy, I did it in the capital."

Pingguo nodded, and lifted the sleeve of the other hand, a scar that had healed up long ago but still pale pink appeared impressively, "It was the first time in my life that I was on the operating table, I was so scared to death, and my mother was also very scared I was afraid, but fortunately the operation was very fast, and the test sheet was received the next day. The doctor said that syringoma is a benign tumor, and there is no other way to remove it, but you can try laser treatment, but it will leave scars, and people with different constitutions People, the effect after surgery is not the same.

In this regard, my mother and I were very confused about whether to take the risk, but before we could make a decision, the biopsy wound was inflamed due to the hot weather, and I was sensitive and couldn’t stand the pain, so I often scratched it. So after several months of tossing, the wound healed a little, but it also left a slight scar. "

After putting down his sleeves, Pingguo looked at Zhang Xiaoling and asked, "Doctor Zhang, can syringoma really only be burned by laser? Is there no other way?"

Zhang Xiaoling glanced at her skin burned by the laser, frowned and said: "Single lesion can be removed by surgery, but if it is multiple, because the wound is too large, it will cause poor postoperative effect and cause complications. Besides, you are not a simple syringoma, but a generalized eruptive syringoma, which is a special type of syringoma, very rare, and a benign skin tumor that differentiates into the sweat ducts at the end of eccrine sweat glands."

"Generalized exanthematous syringoma?"

It was the first time Pingguo had heard of this medical term, and felt that his condition was more serious than expected.

Thinking of this, she couldn't help shedding tears, "So there's no cure?"

"Doctor Zhang, can you think of ways to help Pingguo improve the current situation? Can you choose cutting-edge treatment?"

Qiao Tan was also anxious, and reached out to take Pingguo into his arms.

Zhang Xiaoling frowned, took out a few tissues and handed them to Qiao Tan, and then said: "I'm very sorry, neither I nor the entire field of skin disease treatment has yet found a treatment for generalized eruptive sweating." However, common treatment options, such as dermabrasion, surgical excision, freezing, intralesional injection of botulinum toxin, electrocautery, laser therapy, chemical peeling, oral or topical retinoic acid preparations, etc. There are various effects due to the different physiques of patients, and many patients will experience scar hyperplasia, hyperpigmentation, depigmentation, and even recurrence after treatment, and the treatment effect is not ideal."

"Then can you formulate a treatment plan suitable for Pingguo's situation? As long as it can alleviate the current condition." Qiao Tan pleaded.

"Well……"

Zhang Xiaoling thought about it carefully, then stretched out her hand and opened Pingguo's sleeve to check her postoperative scar, repeated this over and over again, but did not speak.

Seeing her like this, Qiao Tan and Pingguo also remained silent, waiting with bated breath.

After a few minutes passed, Zhang Xiaoling spoke slowly: "I think these scars of yours can be completely removed, but I'm not an expert in this field. I have to ask Director Lin to remove your scars."

"Director Lin will definitely do it."

Qiao Tan nodded quickly, and said again: "After removing these scars that are more conspicuous than syringoma, you can wear short sleeves in summer."

"Can these scars really be removed?"

Pingguo didn't believe it.

Zhang Xiaoling said: "You have to believe that with today's medical cosmetology, although there are still many intractable diseases that have not been solved in terms of skin diseases, the current cosmetic technology has reached the level that can change the head. It is the best surgery with the smallest scar to remove the syringoma, and combined with topical trichloroacetic acid, it can basically control the recurrence.”

"What about the postoperative scar?" Ping Guo asked.

Surgical treatment of syringoma is fighting poison with fire, and the postoperative marks may be more obvious than the previous syringoma. Therefore, after a failed laser surgery, she did not dare to continue to rely on surgery.

Zhang Xiaoling smiled and said, "Didn't I just say that? The scar removal depends on Director Lin."

"I understand!"

Qiao Tanmao suddenly understood, and immediately said: "Doctor Zhang will eliminate the syringoma, and Director Lin will eliminate the scar."

"Yes."

Zhang Xiaoling nodded with a smile, "Who said that there is only one way to cure a disease? Can't we have more options and use both approaches?"
