You’re great for actually going to the hospital!!!

Not yet… It’s not over yet.

I don’t have any memory of bumping into something, and there’s no bruise, but there’s a lump about 2 cm in diameter on my forearm.
It hurts quite a bit when I touch it, and when I stretch my arm, it feels tight and that also hurts.

It’s common to suffer through pain for a week and then get medication at the hospital, only to be pain-free in three days.

The medication prescribed at the hospital is great.
A drug casually chosen by an amateur is not comparable.

Indeed, this symptom has been overlooked until yesterday…
But now it’s different! *squeeze*

I know my body better than anyone else!

Even if hives appear or not, there is itching and swelling on the scalp and face.
I have to go since the medicine I got last time ran out, but last time I was just told to wait and see…
I can’t be very proactive.

When I was in high school, I went to the dermatologist because I was feeling a sharp pain in my side (these last few days…?) and it turned out to be an extremely early symptom of shingles.

That’s why doctors know more about other people’s bodies than the individuals themselves.

Sometimes, when there’s little information, all you can do is wait and see.
At least the fact that it either works or doesn’t, and that it is prolonged, adds more factors for judgment.

Doctors and hospitals can be hit or miss, but there’s also compatibility, right?
Let’s find a trustworthy doctor.

Indeed, there have been changes during the observation period, and it might be good to consult with another doctor as well.
Thank you.

I had itchy skin irritation and bought an over-the-counter medicine for a thousand yen to make do, but it didn’t work, so I went to the doctor.
It’s amazing that I got a stronger version of the same kind of ointment in 10 tubes, along with oral medication, for just 700 yen, and it completely cured me.

Is it a pimple? But it doesn’t hurt… It hasn’t shrunk at all, so I’m wondering if I should go to the hospital.
So, since it’s a specific area, should I go to a dermatologist or a urologist? And I don’t have a regular doctor for either.

I was about to have ganglion surgery at a large general hospital, but the doctor changed due to a transfer or relocation, and now there’s no talk of the ganglion surgery anymore.
Ah, so this is what makes one unable to trust hospitals and doctors…
I was a bit surprised… you haven’t done the handover, have you!
Also, I understand that this is the patient’s selfishness, but when the attending physician changes during treatment or while waiting for a diagnosis, it somehow makes me feel like I’m being abandoned…

I seriously struggled with whether to go to an orthopedic doctor, a dentist, or an ENT for my jaw joint disorder…

It’s surprisingly difficult to accurately describe your own symptoms.
Come to think of it, I didn’t mention that this symptom was also present.

Even if you think it’s dermatology, it’s okay to first go to a place that has a surgical sign.
Town doctors often check things without going into such details.
Well, if it’s close, going to a place that specializes in it is probably the best option.

In any case, it’s easier for the hospital if you express any concerns as soon as possible and get examined while it’s still minor.
By the time it starts to hurt seriously, there are many diseases that have become too late to treat.

When I went to the dentist the other day, for the first time in my 30 years of life, they said, “You have small teeth,” but I’ve been going regularly and no one has ever mentioned this before. Why is that?

I was thinking my back hurts, but I hesitated to go to the hospital for back pain, and then gradually it became more difficult to move my legs, and before I knew it, I couldn’t walk, so I should go to the hospital.

I feel that the ability to effectively communicate what’s wrong to the doctor is also important.

When I went to the dentist for my jaw joint disorder, they said that my jaw is so developed from overuse that it doesn’t seem like that of a modern person, and I was a little happy about it.

Let’s go to the town doctor more casually!
There’s no point in going to a general hospital from the start!

K2 is also a manga, so it seems to progress smoothly.
You’ve been writing about inspections and such in the monologue, and it’s been quite some time.

I feel like there was a story where Doctor K was monitoring the situation for a few months and the patient got furious.

As a result of taking my mother to the hospital, I’m now sobbing…

What’s up with those who just complain and don’t take action, even about something as simple as going to the hospital!

Since reading the thread, I’ve started going to the hospital immediately if something happens.

It’s one thing when it comes to myself, but a family member’s illness is tough.

There’s a trend where people casually do things like PET, but…
Unlike options for health check-ups, I wonder if those are heavily covered by health insurance.

A more relaxed hospital system is needed.
I want to share half of my energy with the elderly people loitering in the hospital.

It’s a meta discussion, but the patients that come in tend to have money, right?
Surgery, medical expenses, and treatment duration are not to be underestimated…

I feel like one of my legs is not doing well, should I go to the hospital?
If it’s just about changing jobs and then it’s over, that would be sad.

While I’m hospitalized, I thought I could also receive this and that, but I was told I couldn’t…
It’s fine… after all, there’s nothing else to do but rehabilitation…

It would be ideal if medical costs were cheaper and more accessible, but looking at ambulance posters makes it clear that free or extremely cheap treatment will definitely lead to unpleasant outcomes, which is tough to accept.

I like looking at a certain poster that is hanging in the hallway while I wait.
I’m told to sit and wait.
Shut up! I want to see these gross images of cataract prevention and conjunctivitis, you idiot!

I feel like the lateral arch on the soles of my feet has disappeared from pushing too hard with my bike, and it hurts when I walk for a long time, but since it’s been about two years, I hesitate to say anything now, thinking it won’t get better.

It might be better to see a doctor.
Even when you think you don’t need to see a doctor, you should still go for a health check-up.

If going to the hospital can give you peace of mind, that’s the best thing you can do…

While waiting for a prescription at the pharmacy, the person in front of me started shouting that things like herbal medicine aren’t real medicine and demanded them to give proper medicine. It really brought down my mood…

Sudden pain in the side and swollen lymph nodes… death!?
It was a mild case of shingles.

When you’re having a tough time, just sleeping for a night can really help your mind relax, right?
Of course, even after waking up, it’s still painful, but it becomes a pain that can be sorted out, so to speak.

I was super scared when I suddenly found a lump under my jaw, and it turned out to be lymphangitis from a cold.
If it doesn’t disappear after a month, we can just re-examine it; such a strange disease won’t suddenly appear!
I was really relieved.
I realize that the doctor is also a source of reassurance.

If you live for several decades, there’s bound to be something wrong with the human body.
If it were true, it’s designed to last about thirty years at least.

I often see people dismissing traditional Chinese medicine as baseless or treating it as a placebo here…

Also, from late at night to 2-3 AM is when I feel the most restless and end up thinking about unnecessary negative things.
If you’re not awake because you enjoy working or anything like that, you all should go to bed.

A facility that you can casually visit for just a little over 1000 yen with a 30% co-payment is really a great value.
How do doctors make a living?

It’s getting increasingly difficult to make a living, so it’s decreasing more and more…

If you try to upgrade the equipment a little, it costs tens of millions or even billions, and if the equipment is old, you get bad reviews from your main target, the elderly. Is running a private clinic hell?

I had a bright red poop!! When I hurriedly brought the poop to the reception, they were completely shocked.
Do you want to talk about how the大量 of watermelon I ate the day before yesterday was the cause?

What do you want me to do?

Sometimes there are people who are strict about the healthcare system, but sure, there are those who financially benefit more than I do. However, being healthy is the most important thing, and I want to maintain the current system that allows us to easily go to the doctor when we need it.

But if the receptionist is as rude as the reviews say, I wish they would hire someone a bit more decent.
