Post Accident Checkup Bliss Dulce Part 2

In part 1 Bliss explained to the doctor that she fell off a horse. He decided to do a full exam. The first part of the exam is in part 1. We are picking up where he he is just finishing the ear exam.

He walks over to the table and picks up an Ophthalmoscope to check her eyes. After checking her eyes he makes some notes and has her lay down on the table. He checks her arms and hands. Having her move her hand and fingers. Also he has her resist as well as checking her range of motion. Next he checks her shoulder and it’s range of movement. Then he goes to the other side and does the same inspection on her other arm. He feels under her shoulder as he moves her arm.

He does more visual checks on her chest and stomach as well as her side. Next he presses on her hip bones and she giggles. She apologizes for laughing and he assures her it is ok. He checks the other side and again she laughs when he touches her hips.

Next he moves down her legs. Checking for range of movement and for pain. He does a test to see her sensitivity to touch by using a small piece of cotton. Lightly touching different areas on her legs and feet. He has her move her feet and ankles as well as toe movement. Checking for both range of motion as well as resistance. He continues doing a visual inspection before going to the other leg and repeating the process.

Next he has her roll over and he does another visual inspection of her entire back side. Then he starts a the shoulders and works his way down her back. Pressing and probing with his fingers for anything unusual. Next he checks her legs for any visual indication. After he checks her neck and shoulders one more time. He makes some notes and tells her she can get up and get dressed. She asks if she can get something for the pain. He tells her he will get her something.

After she is up he tells her what she should take for the pain and that he is going to want to schedule an x-ray for later this afternoon. It can be done in the office and he will let the front desk know.
