Chapter 472: Chapter 472: Unnatural White Chapter 472: Chapter 472: Unnatural White Looking at the woman in front of him, who had almost fallen into a semi-comatose state due to pain, Yan Sinian asked her husband.
“What symptoms?”
The husband’s fingers were twisted together, wishing he could share his wife’s pain.
“Actually, it started a week ago; Xiaoman’s skin beca whiter and whiter, almost transparent enough to see her veins. I was a bit worried and wanted her to co to the hospital to check it out.”
“But Xiaoman said she was just a little anemic and had been in the sun too little recently, so that’s why she looked like that. I saw she didn’t want to co to the hospital, so I didn’t force her. Who would have thought it would turn into this?”
When he got to the sad part, the husband even covered his face and started to cry.
Yan Sinian frowned and said, “Keep going.”
The husband had no choice but to wipe away his tears and choke out, “Two days ago, her entire body began to hurt terribly. No matter what fabric she wore, it felt like burning, whether it was cotton or silk, it hurt, and she couldn’t even lie still in bed stark naked.”
There are many possibilities for skin contact with fabric to cause pain.
Local tissue stimulant damage, skin allergies, inflammation, neuralgia, or even rheumatism could all be the cause.
But both the ergency physician and Yan Sinian, upon seeing the woman, instinctively focused their gaze on her skin.
Too white—
Abnormally white—
Unlike hereditary vitiligo, this whiteness was not a ghastly patch, but nearly transparent.
Like skin wrapped in crystal, clear and sparkling.
It was almost possible to see through the thin layer of skin to the veins and organs underneath.
Of course, this was definitely an illusion.
But the fact that everyone present could have this illusion was enough to show how abnormal the woman’s skin was.
“Do you think it should be neurology or dermatology?” the ergency physician asked, troubled.
After the patient was brought in, he imdiately conducted an examination and found that her skin had no inflammation, allergies, or damage.
Therefore, he was more inclined to believe it was a neuropathic pain.
But should the condition of her skin be managed by dermatology?
However, the ergency physician was sure the dermatologists at People’s Hospital had probably never seen such bizarre symptoms.
He didn’t even know which asures to take first to alleviate the patient’s pain.
“Have you tried ice packs or hot compresses?”
The ergency physician nodded, “But the patient almost fainted from the pain at the re touch of an ice pack, so ice treatnt was impossible.”
Hot compresses weren’t even worth trying.
The pain seed to be getting more intense, and the woman in the bed no longer had the strength to cry out. She could only let out a faint breathing sound.
The husband was in utter disarray, kneeling beside the bed, pleading, “Xiaoman, you have to hang in there. If sothing happens to you, how can I go on?”
Yan Sinian had no choice but to interrupt him, “Sorry, may I ask if your wife had any skin inflammation before?”
Inflammation of the skin can lead to pignt loss, resulting in an unnaturally pale complexion.
“No, Xiaoman takes very good care of her skin. If there had been any inflammation, I would definitely know.”
“Has she been exposed to any chemicals recently? Including costics that she started to use recently.”
So chemicals can also cause changes in skin pigntation.
For example, so costics that contain excessive amounts of lead or rcury can, in the short term, appear to whiten the skin but cause heavy tal poisoning over ti.
Besides, there are also so special chemical components.
For instance, Yan Sinian had once heard Yan Qiying talk about a case.
The patient was a factory worker whose hands turned an unnatural white that continued to spread up to his wrists.
It was later found that he was required to co into contact with thyl thacrylate without gloves during work.
And it was thanks to Yan Qiying’s discovery that the impoverished patient received compensation from the factory and was able to receive treatnt.
Although such cases are rare, they are not nonexistent.
But the husband firmly denied it, “Xiaoman’s costics are all imported from overseas, she has been using them for several years and would not easily switch. She usually stays at ho, doesn’t need to work, and has no way of coming into contact with any chemicals you ntioned.”
From the husband’s words and the couple’s attire, it was not difficult to see that they were obviously very wealthy.
The woman must be a pampered housewife, deeply loved by her husband.
Yan Sinian frowned, knowing that the most important part of treating illness is to find the cause, but the woman’s condition was indeed rare.
He stared at the woman on the bed, his gaze suddenly falling on her hands dangling by her side.
