"No, my waist is fine."
Du Heng looked through several X-rays and found no problems. "The previous doctor simply told you to go home?"
"When I was first hospitalized, they said it might be sciatic nerve pain. After further examination, it turned out it wasn't. Then they suspected it might be a problem from my previous back surgery. I had X-rays, but those also showed nothing wrong. I was in the hospital for a whole week, and they couldn't find anything. Yesterday, they told me to go home and recuperate on my own."
Du Heng stood up. "Can you straighten your leg now?"
"I can straighten it, but I can't fully touch the ground with my entire foot."
"That's fine. Just lightly touch the ground with your heel and straighten your leg."
Du Heng squatted beside the patient and began to press the base of the patient's thigh. "Tell me where it hurts."
"Okay."
