"Has the doctor who advised people to quit drinking left?" This rhetorical question is too sharp, but it cannot be used as an example to illustrate the problem.

Recently, a piece of news on the Internet shocked all medical staff.

Without further ado, pictures speak louder than words. Not only do they have pictures, they also have videos.

In the video, a 107-year-old man went to the hospital for treatment due to a fracture. During the meal, his family served delicious food, but the old man had no appetite at all. It was not until his family handed him a glass of wine that the old man suddenly smiled.

From the video, the old man probably had a lower limb fracture. And, from a professional point of view, it is probably a femoral neck fracture. After all, this fracture happens too often in the elderly.

This type of fracture has another meaningful name - the last fracture in life.

Don't get me wrong, this doesn't mean you won't get another fracture after this one, but it means you won't have another chance of getting another fracture. Because once an old person is bedridden, their body functions will plummet. If they don't get surgery in time, they may die soon.

Looking at the old man's mental state after the operation, I couldn't help but applaud the technology of the hospital's anesthesiology department.

It is almost certain that this anesthesia is not general anesthesia. Although the current general anesthesia technology and drugs are very mature, it still has some effects on the elderly. At least, the recovery of energy and spirit is still slower than that of young people.

Although the elderly are energetic and most of their test results are within normal range, they are like a car from decades ago. Once it breaks down, it may not just be a problem with a part. Therefore, no amount of thinking and preparation is too much for the preoperative preparation of such elderly people.

Most likely, the anesthesia method used by this elderly person was spinal anesthesia or the more advantageous ultrasound-guided nerve block.

The effect of postoperative analgesia must be very good. Pain is not only a sensory discomfort, but also affects many systems of the human body. For example, it may lead to loss of appetite.

Looking at the comments below, one netizen's comment is still very pertinent. He said: This is just an isolated case, it cannot be encouraged or tolerated.

That is indeed the case. We cannot judge a person based on a single case of a person who drinks but lives a long life. Doctors’ advice is based on a large amount of statistical data, and is a guideline that can benefit the majority of people without considering individual cases.

In particular, I saw a sharp message from one netizen: Has the doctor who persuaded people to drink left?

I believe that most doctors would not have the courage to refute this statement. Yes, how many people can live to 107 years old? Living to 107 years old is a hard truth, so what can you refute?

In the end, no matter what, we don’t object to individual cases, but for the vast majority of people, the disadvantages of drinking outweigh the advantages.

From the perspective of alcohol metabolism, alcohol requires good liver function to break down alcohol. At this time, alcohol is no different from poison.

Therefore, you should still follow your doctor's advice.

In addition, drinking alcohol is not allowed in the hospital. If you force yourself to drink, the medical staff will also be embarrassed.
