Chapter 79 Hemophilia
In this world, there are such a group of patients.

From birth, they lack a clotting factor in their bodies.

The lack of this coagulation factor will cause disorders of the body's coagulation function.

Therefore, after they are injured, even a small wound will take a long time to stop bleeding and heal.

And this disease makes their bodies as "fragile" as glass.

That is, hemophilia!

People with hemophilia must be careful to avoid any bumps in life.

Their bodies are like a glass filled with water. Even if there is only a tiny crack in the glass, blood will flow.

But even so, they still cannot escape the torture of hemophilia.

Because the most terrible thing about hemophilia is joint bleeding.

Walking, squatting, and holding things, as long as you move the joints, may cause the capillaries in the joints to be injured and bleed.

For ordinary people, this will not feel anything at all, because the injured areas of these capillaries will heal quickly.

But for hemophiliacs, this is the beginning of a nightmare.

In a short period of time, the injured joint will swell immediately and be accompanied by severe pain. If you are lucky, it may take two or three days to heal. If you are not lucky, it may take one or two weeks.

It is said that the pain caused by hemophilia patients can reach ten levels or more, even as much as the pain caused by childbirth.

On the way home, Lu Liangliang kept thinking about this matter.

With Xia Qunxing's strong character, he really would not tell anyone these things.

The reason why He Qing knew about it was because he accidentally met Xie Qunxing in the hospital and took his sister to the hospital to check the situation, and he only found out after seeing the physical examination report in Xia Qunxing's hand.

Hemophilia?
Lu Liang couldn't help but sigh.

As far as he knows, there is currently no cure for hemophilia, and the only way is to maintain normal activities in life by injecting the coagulation factor VIII that is lacking in the body.

To put it simply, make up for whatever is missing.

The half-life of human coagulation factor VIII in the human body is 8 to 12 hours, and regular therapy requires supplementation once a day.

Theoretically, as long as a hemophiliac has sufficient coagulation factor VIII drugs, he can live like a normal person.

But a bottle of human coagulation factor VIII extracted from plasma, even if it is reimbursed, is still priced at as high as 800 a bottle.

In other words, in one month, hemophilia patients will need tens of thousands of dollars to maintain treatment.

But this is a heavy burden for Xia Qunxing, whose family conditions are not good.

Lu Liang sighed. He suddenly knew why Xia Qunxing told him that he wanted to give him a satisfactory explanation.

I guess I have already made plans to take a break from college after finishing the college entrance examination.

After a moment of silence, Lu Liang felt that he needed to visit this friend he had not seen for a year.

Of course, you should always bring some gifts when you visit. This is the most basic courtesy.

Fortunately, there are still several days before the Chinese New Year, and the express delivery has not stopped yet. Lu Liang took out his mobile phone and quickly placed an order, buying what he needed.

In the afternoon of the next day, Lu Liang received a notification on his mobile phone that the express delivery had arrived.

Lu Liang got dressed and said to Wu Hongqin: "Mom, I'm going out." "I'm going out again. Can I come back for dinner?"

"No, I might eat outside."

Lu Liang changed his shoes and hurried downstairs.

At the courier station, Lu Liang got his courier, which was a tight courier packaged in black plastic and contained a foam box sealed with tape.

The thing was quite heavy and couldn't be carried with one hand, so Lu Liang could only pick it up and walk towards the west of the city.

The west part of the city is an old city. With the continuous development of the east part of the city, the west part of the city is no longer as lively as before.

The five or six-story self-built houses are the main buildings in this area in the west of the city. They are in sharp contrast to the high-rise buildings in the east of the city that often have dozens of stories. They are like an old man who is lingering on his last breath.

Migrant workers who come to the city to work will choose to live here because the rent in the west of the city is cheaper.

Lu Liang walked through the intricate alleys in the west area of ​​the city, and he soon came to the entrance of a community.

Looking at the more than ten buildings, Lu Liang felt a little confused for a moment.

When he was chatting before, he learned that Xia Qunxing's family lived in this community, but he didn't know the specific buildings and floors.

However, everyone in this old community should know each other. If you ask someone, you should be able to find out where Xia Qunxing lives.

Lu Liang continued walking towards the community, and the sound of children playing around the corner not far away caught Lu Liang's attention.

Several children put lit firecrackers into an empty can. With a muffled sound, the can flew out, and the children chased after it happily.

However, what made Lu Liang a little puzzled was that on the steps, there was an eleven or twelve-year-old little girl sitting there, looking at the group of playing children from a distance.

Is it because he doesn't fit in with others, or is he being excluded?
Lu Liang took some change and asked for two lollipops in the store, then walked towards the little girl, ready to ask the little girl.

The little girl seemed to have noticed Lu Liang walking towards her, her expression suddenly became a little nervous, and she stared at Lu Liang motionless.

This move made Lu Liang stunned.

Have you been misunderstood as a bad person?

Lu Liang coughed dryly, then waved to the little girl: "Kid, I'm not a bad person, I just want to ask you something."

As Lu Liang said this, he took out the lollipop he just bought from his pocket and handed it to the little girl.

The little girl looked at Lu Liang nervously, as if she felt that Lu Liang did not look like a bad guy, and then slowly walked over.

Taking the lollipop from Lu Liang's hand, the tension on the little girl's face did not diminish. Instead, she opened a meter away from Lu Liang before asking: "What are you thinking about?"

Are all children today so wary?

Lu Liangliang muttered something in his mind, but didn't take it to heart. He looked around and asked, "Kid, do you know where Xia Qunxing lives?"

After listening to Lu Liang's question, the little girl looked at Lu Liang in confusion and asked, "Do you have anything to do with my brother?"

After hearing what the little girl said, Lu Liang was stunned for a moment.

He was just about to continue asking when a familiar voice suddenly came from the stairs of the building: "Xiaowen, come back for dinner."

Lu Liang looked back and saw a young man with dark skin standing at the entrance of the stairs.

The moment he saw Lu Liang, the young man was startled for a moment, and then said in surprise: "Lu Liang?"
