A problem I encountered and how I solved or managed it
KK Hospital
In the previous post,I told you about how my hand got fractured.And of course,I ALMOST solved it by going to the hospital.I went to Singapore General Hospital and I went to the Emergency centre.I waited for like 30 mins before I saw a nurse.The nurse took my blood pressure(I think?) and then I had to wait again for like another 45mins before I could see a real doctor.The doctor asked me to clench my fists,move my fingers then he asked me to take an x-ray.So,I waited for 15 minutes and then I took my x-ray.After that,I had to see the doctor again but I had to wait for 1 hour for that.After that,the doctor looked at the X-ray and told me that it was a sprain.So,I went home,relieved.
Radiant rays of the sun enveloped my neighbourhood.
I woke up after a long day passed.I looked at my hand to check whether the swelling decreased.I was still wondering how a sprain could look so scary.That day flew very fast.I didn't find many difficulties so I acted normal.
The next day,early morning a doctor from SGH called and talked to my father.It seems that the doctor had checked with a specialist and it was indeed a fracture.I was SO frustrated.I waited for 2hour 30 minutes and you don't even tell the truth.I felt like complaining to the court to sue him.(but of course,I realised that everyone makes mistakes)Another thing that I was frustrated about is that I had to wake up early in the morning to hear the bad news and go to the hospital.I had to go to KKH now instead of SGH.
I arrived in KKH.The service was so much better there.I didn't have to wait so long.I met the doctor and he said I had to another X-ray because the previous ones aren't clear.I took the X-ray and I met him again.He said that there was a dislocation and a fracture.So,they had to do an operation.Oh my gosh!My first operation...I was so scared!They made lie down and they made my hand numb so that they could move the bone.I did not feel any pain which gave me joy.After that I had to wear a cast and then I went home.
I had to go for many appointments.On the next appointment,unfortunately,I had dislocated another bone(I don't know how).So they had to do the operation but they DID NOT make my hand NUMB.I was squirming.I shouted,screamed,cried to make my hand numb but they didn't care!In the end,they put the cast which you guys saw.After that I went for a few more appointments.And then one day,I had an infection.
I immediately went to the doctor.They said that water entered and stayed there.It resulted in my skin tearing which still haven't grown back!They put on a different cast but it was only for two days after which I could take it out.
I was eagerly waiting for Thursday!And in the end it arrived,they took out my cast and I was set afree!
My hand is normal now except for a slight pain in my hand occassionally.
With the help of my friends and family,I overcome the obstacle set to me.Thank you God!
