"Ms. Fu, this lump has been here for two years and you haven't thought of going to the hospital? Or have you already been to the hospital?"

Zhang Lingchuan was also shocked.

Having such a lump would definitely affect one's appearance, right?

Or perhaps you've already had it checked and nothing was found, and so you came here to have a look?

"Dr. Zhang, I haven't been to the hospital yet. Initially, it was just a tiny bit, like a mosquito bite, and though I was a bit worried, since there were no other symptoms, I didn't bother."

Fu Xiaoxian explained her symptoms.

If the lump was really this big, how could she leave it for two years? For someone who loves swimming, it would greatly affect her appearance.

"So the lump just recently started to grow?"

Zhang Lingchuan furrowed his brow, noting the yellow tag on her head.

Normally, if it was just a fat granule, it shouldn't have a yellow tag unless it's mutated.

But this mutation happened too fast!

"Yes, I noticed while bathing the other day that the lump seemed to have grown, and the color deepened from slightly red to a bruise-like hue, not painful or itchy before, but now it hurts when touched. After massaging it yesterday, it swelled to the size of a bun and only subsided overnight to this state."

Fu Xiaoxian also initially thought it was just a fat granule, so she didn't mind it.

Who would have thought it would turn out like this so suddenly? She was terrified.

Luckily, Dr. Zhang was live streaming.

She highly respects Chinese medicine and knew that Dr. Zhang was an expert, so she and her friend took an e-bike to Sankeng Village.

They wanted to wait until he was free to ask him for a consultation.

"Uh... So, Ms. Fu, what is your primary concern?"

Zhang Lingchuan understood now.

He wanted to hear what her concern was.

If it's for him to perform surgery to remove the lump, that basically wasn't feasible.

"I primarily want to know what this is and what caused it. I don't want surgery. Will it go away on its own? If possible, can Dr. Zhang prescribe some medicine for me to take?"

Fu Xiaoxian stated her request.

The reason she didn't dare to go to the hospital was the fear that she would be told to have it removed surgically. As a woman who values her appearance, she really didn't want any surgery on her body.

Luckily, Chinese medicine doesn't emphasize surgery and focuses on root treatment, so she hopes to eliminate the root cause through normal medicinal therapy.

"Prescribing medicine isn't possible, but I can definitely take a look for you."

Zhang Lingchuan took action.

He touched it.

He discovered that it could indeed move.

But upon touching it, he clearly felt Ms. Fu's leg twitch slightly.

Indicating pain.

[Ding! Detected host is conducting a consultation, system-assist scanning in progress...]

[Precise Detection... 5 times remaining.]

[Ordinary Detection... 0 times left for today.]

[Activating Precise Detection, please wait...]

The system activated at that moment.

Utilizing the Precise Scan.

Zhang Lingchuan did not refuse.

After all, this lady sincerely asked him.

Given the yellow tag.

Since there were still Precise Scans gifted by the system, he decided to help her out.

"Aren't any medical student experts in the livestream going to chime in?"

"Same question here; is this really a lipoma? Can a fat granule-turned-lipoma really grow this big in just a few days?"

"Studying medicine myself... I don't quite understand either; this lady's lump is indeed peculiar."

"I also thought it was a lipoma before. Didn't expect it to suddenly turn this way. This doesn't seem characteristic of lipomas, especially since it grew to the size of a bun and then shrank like this."

"You still need to get an ultrasound at the hospital. It doesn't seem possible for Dr. Zhang to determine anything by just looking."

"Perhaps she just wants to hear Dr. Zhang's advice as motivation to go to the hospital."

...

Normally, a lipoma is a benign tumor.

Generally painless and non-itchy.

Having a mobility characteristic too.

But as Ms. Fu described, her lump initially was like a mosquito bite—not painful or itchy—and only recently started growing larger, even becoming painful. After scratching, it swelled to bun-size and now reduced to the size of half an egg.

Usually, even if a lipoma turns malignant, it wouldn't behave this way.

So indeed, this lady's lump is peculiar.

But through just a screen, it's hard to make judgments; she should go to the hospital for an ultrasound and pathology test.

They surmised this lady might just be seeking motivation to go to the hospital.

After all, in Chinese medicine, it might not seem normal.

On site.

"Dr. Zhang, can Chinese medicine diagnose these kinds of lumps?"

"Yeah, what are these lumps called in Chinese medicine? Tumors?"

Some of those watching curiously asked.

Some just wanted to chat, while others genuinely wanted to know.

"Of course, they can be diagnosed, but they aren't called tumors. Generally, Chinese medicine names these local masses according to different causes and locations as mammary rocks, intestinal protrusions, malignant nuclei, scrofula, and florid sores, among others."

Zhang Lingchuan completed the pulse diagnosis and slowly explained.

Luckily, he had the foresight to buy many Chinese medicine books and had read a considerable amount. Otherwise, he might have been embarrassed today or even exposed.

It's safe to say that as someone with such a helpful system, it wasn't easy to protect this bug system.
