Chapter 289: Another type of exercise

Zhang Fan now had his own work and social circle after being in the province for slightly more than two years. He had started off really confused when he graduated, and then he started working hard at grinding experience once he received his System. Now, he had some accomplishments of his own. Everything had been pretty successful so far.
Still, Zhang Fan continued to work hard and run straight ahead down this path. Now that he had finally gotten onto a proper path, he wouldn’t allow himself to relax or be lazy.
Zhang Fan was no longer as unknowledgeable about how to take care of himself due to Shao Hua’s training. She had disciplined him quite well. Although she didn’t buy many clothes for him, all the clothes she did buy were relatively expensive.
One of Zhang Fan’s articles of clothing would be worth more than several of her own. This was no exaggeration at all. Shao Hua told Zhang Fan, “Women’s clothes need to be changed often because of what’s popular at the time, so there’s no need for my clothes to be expensive. However, it’s different for men as they have to wear comfortable and nice clothing, because you represent my face!”
Society would always judge based on appearance more than character. Shao Hua understood this quite well after working at the bank. While Zhang Fan didn’t care about his own appearance, she would definitely care.
Men were forever children who would never grow up. They would forever view the world as a toy.
Meanwhile, the best dolls for adult women would be men. A woman would be blissful if she loved a doll who was obedient and loved her. In that case, the woman would do everything for the man. For instance, Zhang Fan no longer had to worry about anything in his daily life.
Every day when Zhang Fan woke up in the morning, there would already be clean and ironed clothing folded neatly waiting for him at the bedside prepared by Shao Hua. In the past, Zhang Fan prepared to wear ordinary shoes as they were easy to keep clean! He was fine with any clothing as long as it was clean. Ironing clothes or wearing matching clothes would be impossible for him.
Now, complex problems such as what to wear in the morning and how to match his clothing had all been solved by him for Shao Hua every day already. Zhang Fan truly enjoyed this endless bliss.
Recently, Jia Suyue was becoming ever more frustrated. As she got older, her parents became more and more dissatisfied with how she preferred to stay at home and enjoy herself in her own little world.
Her parents often compared her to Shao Hua! Sometimes, Jia Suyue would look at Shao Hua and Zhang Fan and envy them, even if she didn’t really regret not getting together with Zhang Fan.
This year, Jia Suyue finally got another boyfriend. However, this time her parents strongly disliked her current boyfriend, so she was really confused about what she should do in life. She decided to invite Shao Hua out for a meeting. The two best friends met at a café for a chat.
“Hua, when are you getting married to your Zhang Fan?”
“Probably soon. The new apartment is finished with renovations already. We’re just waiting for his parents to come to the border province! How are you doing? I feel like you’re worrying about something!”
“Yeah, Hua, I have a boyfriend again!” Jia Suyue said somewhat embarrassedly as she grabbed Shao Hua’s hands.
“Heavens! You didn’t even tell me. Since when? Find some time to introduce him to me. Is he really handsome? Tell me how you two met!” Gossip was like inner nature to women. It was said that gossiping could help women relieve their stress!
“I only met him recently. But, my parents really don’t like him. I’m really confused about what to do. He treats me really well.”
“What’s the matter? Weren’t your parents always urging you to hurry and get married?” Shao Hua was confused.
“I met him at the gym. My mom nagged me every day to get out of the house, so I signed up for a gym membership. He works as a personal trainer at the gym. That’s how we got to know each other!” Jia Suyue seemed somewhat depressed today instead of being her usual prideful self!
“Ah. What do you intend to do?” Shao Hua now understood.
“I don’t know! Does a marriage really have to be between two people of equal social status?” Jia Suyue felt really conflicted as she tightly gripped the coffee mug in her hand. She was from a rich family, while the personal trainer was just a normal man working at an ordinary job, which was why her family greatly objected.
“Sigh, I don’t know, either. Still, I can tell you a story about my coworker.” Shao Hua then told Wang Yan’s story to Jia Suyue.
“She’s that pitiful?”
“Yeah, marriage isn’t a joke at all! You must be extra cautious before deciding to marry!”
Although the majority of rheumatic diseases were incurable, the rheumatology diseases could still be controlled with medicine, similar to chronic diseases or high blood pressure and diabetes.
High blood pressure and diabetes were well researched and understood now. Even ordinary people would know common sense on how to prevent high blood pressure and diabetes these days. However, rheumatic diseases still weren’t well understood, maybe due to less research on the topic. It was still unknown why many rheumatic diseases would occur. That was why prevention was basically impossible. However, the basics of prevention would be to avoid too much direct sunlight or harsh cold stimulation.
The fatty hotel manager was in such pain that he could only grit his teeth. Zhang Fan checked his condition in the afternoon. The fatty hotel manager’s body covered the hospital bed completely. The flesh on his stomach draped all the way down to the bed and covered both edges!
“Doctor Zhang, you still haven’t gone to rest yet?” The fatty struggled to get up when he saw Zhang Fan enter his room. However, since the hotel manager was too fat, he was unable to even get up very quickly.
“No need to get up, no need to get up. It’s fine to just remain lying down. How are you, do you still hurt?” Zhang Fan hurriedly said when he saw how hard it was for the fatty hotel manager to get up.
“Much better! It doesn’t hurt now, except for my big toe which feels really hot and swollen! When it’s swollen, it keeps throbbing as if something inside wants to burst out.”
“Haha, let me see.” Zhang Fan chuckled and walked up to see that the fatty’s big toe was red and swollen. The skin was stretched to such an extent that it was thin and shiny!
Zhang Fan gently touched the big toe with the back of his hand. He could sense that the skin temperature was obviously rather high.
“You’re going to need to lose weight. Otherwise, you’re going to require surgery for this in the future,” Zhang Fan informed the hotel manager.
“No way! Doctor Zhang, don’t scare me like that. My heart isn’t very good!” the hotel manager exaggerated.
“I’m not trying to scare you at all. You’re already beginning to feel pain. If this continues, it will create a tophus. Not only will the tophus sink into your big toe joint, it will also create kidney stones. Also, you can see that your skin is getting really thin here. Once the inflammation lasts for a long time and corrodes your skin more, it will be difficult for this part to recover if the skin breaks!”
“Then what should I do?” the hotel manager asked dejectedly.
“Lose weight! You absolutely must start watching what you eat. With your current weight, without even mentioning your gout, your knee joints won’t be able to handle your weight for long! You’ll get arthritis!”
“Sigh! I know! I live on the third floor. Just walking up all those steps makes my heart race at such a high speed! Let me tell you something that will make you laugh. Whenever I want to have sex with my wife, she has to push away my belly fat while we do it! Sigh!”
Zhang Fan originally had a friendly smile, but he almost laughed out loud from this! Still, he could imagine that the fatty hotel manager was having a hard time in daily life because of how much fat was on his stomach.
“Alright, you can take it slowly with losing weight. However, you absolutely must watch what you eat. Otherwise, your gout will become even more severe.” Zhang Fan forced himself not to laugh out loud. Although the hotel manager had said that he could laugh, actually laughing would still be a bit rude!
“Doctor Zhang, what are the main taboos for my diet with regards to gout? Could you tell me?”
“Animal organs, seafood, barbeque, and beer. All of these are taboo!”
“Sheesh, I won’t be able to live like this. I really love eating goat intestines!”
After chatting a little, Zhang Fan returned to the department to write his medical report! Previously, gout had been categorized as a disease for the endocrinology department, but in recent years, expert internal medicine specialists had a discussion and recategorized it under rheumatology.
This finally gave rheumatology a curable disease! The main reason for gout was actually a problem with uric acid metabolization. For various unclear reasons, uric acid would also sometimes increase in the body, although this was rarer.
Another main cause of gout was being fat! Eating too many fatty foods would cause the body to be unable to metabolize it all. The sediment would then accumulate in a small joint or at the kidney, finally forming uric acid crystals!
Treating gout was actually quite simple. In the past, gout was treated with colchicine, but this medicine had far too many negative side effects, such as vomiting, discomfort, and even kidney or liver damage. Colchicine was no longer commonly used in clinical medicine for gout pain relief. Nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs would be used instead.
The basic cause of gout was high uric acid. There were two treatment methods for this. The first would be to increase the speed of excreting uric acid from the body, while the other was to suppress the production of uric acid. If the kidney already had kidney stones, then excretion medication could no longer be used, as excreting uric acid relied on the kidney, meaning that the kidney stones would only get worse if the excretion speed was sped up.
Actually, gout could be summed up quite simply. If you didn’t watch what you ate, and if you were overweight, then gout would definitely come for you! There was no escape!
The fatty hotel manager also had his own difficulties. The hotel he worked at was the hotel chosen by Kuake City’s government. He would often have to attend major meal meetings! However, he was unwilling to let go of his job, so he could only keep coming to the hospital repeatedly to treat his health problems!
Later that afternoon, when Zhang Fan was almost about to get off from work, the hotel manager’s wife arrived. The hotel manager was around 40 years old, while his wife appeared much younger. Apparently, she had been one of the prettiest employees of the hotel before.
“Doctor Zhang, sorry to trouble you. My husband’s in so much pain. You must be having a hard time with him. You have to try and convince him to watch his health. He’ll only listen to you. He never stops when I say anything.”
“Alright, rest assured, I’ll definitely talk to him about it.” Zhang Fan chatted with her a little, and told her about her husband’s condition before she left.
Zhang Fan couldn’t help but laugh out loud after she left… because of how thin she was! If the fatty hotel manager was a large and heavy truck, then the wife was a tiny sedan. ‘This woman must really have a hard time with her husband in bed!’ Zhang Fan also took a closer look at her arms because of what the hotel manager had mentioned about her pushing away his belly fat each time. It seemed like her arms were a bit thick!
