"This afternoon. After a nap, I don't know if it was because it got hotter this afternoon, but I suddenly started to feel feverish," the old aunt said.
Standing behind Teacher Xin after entering, Xie Wanying and Yue Wentong stayed quiet so as not to disturb the teacher while she examined the patient. They simply observed and learned from behind. The old aunt, while speaking, kept touching her knees repeatedly, as if they were in great pain.
Obviously, Xin Yanjun had noticed this early on. Thus, sometimes when patients don't mention or forget to mention or can't articulate their issues, doctors need to be able to observe and identify the patient's potential problems.
"Doctor, did I catch a cold?" the old aunt asked, "Ah, I really have been neglecting myself too much. I shouldn't have gone out, caught the wind, and gotten sick."
Xin Yanjun comforted her, saying, "No, this is not a cold."
"If it's not a cold, then what is it?"
