see you in spring

Chapter 143 Heartache and Body Pain

The next morning, Jia Lie woke up and suddenly felt a stab of pain on the right side of her lower back. She touched it with her hand and felt some small bumps on her skin. They probably appeared on the right side of her waist two days ago. They are exactly the same as those fine, red bulges with a watery pellet base.

"Little Winter Melon, help mom take a look. What's wrong with mom's back?" Jia Lie couldn't see what was going on behind him, so he asked his daughter who had just gotten up to look at it for him.

Little Winter Melon rubbed her eyes and took a closer look: "Mom, you have a lot of small blisters on your back."

The little winter melon was about to reach out and touch it, but Jia Lie stopped her: "Don't move, this thing may be contagious. My mother had it on her waist before, and now it has spread to her back. Okay, you stay away from your mother quickly and wear it yourself." Put on your clothes, brush your teeth and wash your face.”

Little Winter Melon was frightened, put on her clothes and went out aggrievedly.

Jia Lie was very irritable. The small bumps on his waist two days ago were just itchy and prickly pains, as if he had been bitten by a mosquito or some bug.So she didn't pay attention and casually applied some anti-inflammatory drugs such as green ointment. Unexpectedly, after a few days, these small bulges spread to her back.

She frowned, opened her clothes, and looked in the dressing mirror with her back on her back. She found that the small bag on the back of her waist had two large red patches, one on her waist and one on her back.She felt itching in these two areas, accompanied by bursts of burning and stinging.

The pain at this time is much stronger than when I first discovered it.Not only that, but she also felt that the pain of this thing seemed to be getting worse every second.At this time, no matter how big Jia Lie's heart was, he felt that this thing was not so simple, so he quickly called Dongqing in.

Dongqing had just finished making breakfast, served noodles to her daughter, wiped her hands and entered Jia Lie's room.When he saw the things on Jia Lie's back and waist, he was also confused.

"What's wrong with you?" He asked with a frown, looking at the small blisters on her body.

"Who knows, at first I thought I was bitten by some small flyworm, but I didn't expect it to be like this, painful and itchy."

"How long has this been growing?"

"It's been almost a week, probably since we were quarantined again. It appeared on my waist at first, so I didn't notice it." As Jia Lie spoke, there was another stabbing pain in his back.

Dongqing's brows furrowed even more tightly: "Have you applied any skin care cosmetics such as essential oils recently? Could it be an allergy?"

Jia Lie was so grumpy in pain that he yelled angrily: "Essential oil? Ever since I bought a house, I've almost been using Dabao. I'm allergic to it."

"Did you take any medicine or vitamins?" Dongqing thought of the anti-stress medicines she took.

"No, no." She waved her hands impatiently. She had taken those medicines for so long, and if there were any side effects, they would have broken out long ago.

After speaking, Jia Lie suddenly paused and said nervously: "Do you think this is the urine of a spider on it? I heard an old man in my hometown say that after a spider urinates on the skin, it will appear like this. situation. Do you think I have been poisoned by spider poison?"

Dongqing thought she would say something well-founded. After hearing what she said, he was speechless and said: "How big is a spider that can pee all over your waist and back like this? Can we have one in our house?" Even if there is, if you wear thermal underwear in winter, wouldn't you feel it if such a big spider got into it? Besides, allergies caused by spider poison are not like this."

Jia Lie grimaced in pain and said with a sad face, "Then tell me, what's going on?"

Dongqing used her mobile phone to take pictures of these two areas of skin, and then said, "Put your clothes on first so you don't catch a cold. I'll check online to find out what's going on."

"But I'm really in pain now, and it hurts whenever I touch it." Jia Lie said while putting on his clothes.

Dongqing looked at Jia Lie, who was screaming in pain when his clothes rubbed him, and thought of a way.He placed a ring-shaped simple nap pillow around her neck and shoulders, and then asked her to put on one of his large shirts.With the back space supported by the nap pillow, those clothes finally did not rub against the small blisters on her body, and Jia Lie finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Holly gave her a thin coat: "A shirt inside and a coat outside, it should be enough at home."

Jia Lie carefully put on his coat and looked at himself in the mirror. Although he was not cold and no longer hurt, he still resisted: "My face is just below my breasts and my neck is gone. I won't be laughed at during the video conference." Die?"

"It's better to die laughing than to die in pain. Hurry up and brush your teeth and wash your face. Your face is all lumpy." Dongqing helped her pack the things to be washed on the bed, opened the door and let her walk out slowly, while he stayed and turned on the computer. , help her check what's going on first.

As soon as Jia Lie took two steps, he held his back and said "Ouch".The steps she took just now were a bit big, and her clothes still hit those small bubbles, which made her want to scratch the wall instantly.

Dongqing turned around quickly and frowned: "Didn't I tell you to slow down?"

"I want to be slow..." Jia Lie gritted his teeth and took a few breaths: "Slow, slow."

Like a robot leaning back a bit, she moved mechanically and slowly walked out while supporting the wall.

In order to prevent his clothes from touching the bubbles, Jia Lie pushed his chest up high, leaving a large space behind him.She thought this would ensure that she wouldn't be touched, but she didn't expect that she would habitually spit out toothpaste when brushing her teeth, which made her wail for a while.

Xiao Donggua looked at her grinning mother and didn't dare to get close. She could only run to Dongqing and asked worriedly in a low voice: "Dad, what's wrong with mom?"

Holly looked at the word "shingles" that popped up on the computer screen after searching, with a solemn expression.He compared the computer pictures with the two photos of Jia Lie he took just now, and he felt that these were probably herpes zoster.

He looked at the explanation for shingles: Both shingles and chickenpox are caused by the varicella-zoster virus.It spreads through droplets and contact. The main form of self-infection after entering the human body for the first time is chickenpox. Part of the virus transfers along the sensory nerves and hides in the spinal dorsal root ganglia or cranial ganglia. After several years or decades, Waiting for the opportunity.

When an individual has a low immune system due to various reasons such as age, illness, mental stress, and fatigue, those latent viruses will be awakened and herpes zoster will appear.If it is not treated in time, it will leave sequelae of neuropathic pain, because it is neuropathic pain, so it is extremely painful.

Dongqing looked at the causes of herpes zoster and knew that Jia Lie was under great pressure during this period due to quarantine and mortgage issues. After going to work, she started to work hard again, staying up late every day.In addition, during this period of time, I couldn't go out to exercise at all, and my physical fitness was very average. Once my resistance was low, herpes zoster appeared.

Seeing that Dongqing didn't speak, her daughter shook him again: "Dad, what's wrong with mom?"

Holly swallowed hard and told her daughter, "Mom may have the sequelae of chickenpox."

"What are the sequelae of chickenpox?" Xiao Donggua looked puzzled.

Dongqing didn't want to fool her, so she could only patiently explain to her: "Do you remember when you were four years old, there were a lot of red and itchy dots on your back. You kept wanting to scratch them, but your father kept holding you. , I didn’t let you scratch me, and you kept crying because it was so uncomfortable, do you remember?”

Xiao Donggua thought for a while and nodded: "Remember. I felt very uncomfortable at that time."

"Those little dots you had at that time were chickenpox, caused by the herpes zoster virus. And the little blisters that your mother has now may be because she didn't have chickenpox like you when she was a child, so she burst out now. These little blisters Bubbles are highly contagious. Just now, your mother was right in not letting you get close and not letting you touch the little bubbles on her body. From now on, you should not talk to your mother at close range, do not touch your mother's clothes, and go to study and sleep. In dad’s room, did you hear it?”

Little Winter Melon looked puzzled: "Then when will mom get better?"

"For one to two weeks, we can't get too close to her during this time."

Xiao Donggua looked distressed: "Mom is so pitiful."

Dongqing touched her head: "Don't worry, dad will take good care of mom."

After Dongqing settled her daughter, she walked to the living room wearing a mask and told Jia Lie about shingles.

"Chickenpox?" Jia Lie couldn't believe it.

"I guess that's the reason. I've already made a call for you on Jincheng Hospital's online consultation between 11:30 and [-] o'clock. The previous numbers are gone, otherwise you could have been seen earlier."

Jia Lie was relieved knowing that it was not a big deal, and his chest was high: "This time is very good, I just finished punching the get off work card."

"This chickenpox will be very painful..."

Before Dongqing finished speaking, Jia Lie interrupted him: "Okay, stop talking now. I'm going to have a video conference soon. Let's talk at noon."

Unexpectedly, this meeting lasted for several hours. As soon as Jia Lie entered work mode, he only had the project at hand in his mind.Dongqing kept reminding her on the other side of the camera while looking at the time, but she didn't care at all.

Dongqing finally made an appointment, but she just missed it.

Dongqing had no choice but to make an appointment for the next day.

When she was sleeping at night, Jia Lie suddenly woke up from pain. It was like countless needles were inserted into her flesh in her waist and back. It still hurts for her to give birth, and she doesn't know when the end will be.In order not to cry out, she would bite a corner of the quilt hard every time she felt pain, and hold the head of the bed tightly with her hands. At this time, she extremely regretted not listening to Dongqing's words during the day.

Dongqing, who was sleeping in a small room with her daughter, didn't dare to fall asleep because she was afraid of any movement from Jia Lie's side.In the middle of the night, when he faintly heard Jia Lie groaning in pain in the room, he quickly put on his clothes and a mask. When he came over to take a look, he was stunned.

Jia Lie lay on the bed with the quilt stuffed in his mouth. His hair was soaked with sweat and his face was full of tears.
