Medicine was an incredible complex subject. This statement, while true, could easily be considered an understatement by anyone with even a baseline knowledge of how many complex systems were required in order to keep a human body functional, let alone the needs of the body, potential conditions that could change those needs, and the sheer number of ways in which these systems could break done. To say medicine was a complicated, and intricate subject was something that could easily be described as an understatement, as medical personal had to be prepared for virtually anything within the hunting profession. Whether dealing with potentially unique Grimm and the conditions they could cause, or simply a possible victim to a strange or unique semblance.
There was also the added difficulty that certain conditions could cause for those they cared for. Puer himself was a good example, as he was Far more fragile without aura than those surrounding around him. As well as the other medical issues, and simple logistic issues that came with his own condition regarding his health and society’s way of handling him in general, Understandably, given he was indistinguishable from an actual ten year old, and even those who were aware of the fact had a tendency to treat him as though he were made of glass, and not able to act as a medic despite his own ability and knowledge. While Puer didn’t necessarily mind being treated as a child, it could easily make his job as a medic difficult given that most would assume him to be incompetent given his physical appearance.
Currently the short boy was looking over several books trying to learn all he could about a certain issue in regards to his job as a medic. One that was somewhat personal to him because it dealt with conditions that could affect health, albeit of a different nature. His own condition was apparently rather rare, but it was at least genetic as there was some history of it within his family. Still there were similarities between his own condition and the issue of his current study. Most people didn’t really think about the issues medics face in general, and when it came to issues regarding faunus, especially when it came to their inhuman traits. Some of these traits caused obvious, foreign issues to most humans simply because their traits were far too inhuman to be treated in the same way as a human’s due to how radically different they were in terms of function. Then there were the more mundane traits that came with their own issues that most of simply never would have thought about.
A tail added more possibly bones that could be broken, with a different center of balance for the individual as a result of the added weight, causing possible issues that could be assumed wrongly if one didn’t consider the simple difference between them and a human individual. Ears were another issue altogether, as often they came with better, but more sensitive hearing that could change how one had to actually treat potential hearing problems that may have occurred, as well as the fact these problems could easily be triggered more easily simply due to increased sensitivity to loud noises, or the like.
Faunus traits that manifested in the eyes were similarly complex, simply due to the fact that different animals’ eyes could work in entirely different way than those of humans such as himself, and in varying different ways depending on the animal. A frog’s eyes would work vastly different than the eyes of a hawk, and both were different from the way a human could see. The emphasis could easily be on different things, or the eyes could have a different level of sensitivity to different stimuli depending on the animal in question. Vision was already a complex issue, and the eyes could be indicative of several different physical ailments that could be difficult to identify without knowledge of the differences between those of a human and an animal.
The whole subject had come up as a result of one of the months major mission that had caught the Eternal boy’s notice. Specifically, a mission to look into the differences medically between a faunus and a human. As someone with a somewhat unique medical condition of his own, Puer could easily understand the potentially dangerous consequences of someone not taking such conditions into consideration when dealing with medical conditions such as his own, or even those faunus may face because of their own traits that could cause medical problems.
Even things like claws and fangs would likely require regular maintenance that human nails or teeth did not require, or at least different forms of the same maintenance. That wasn’t even considering the claws of different animals. Additionally, there were those with wings, another relatively common trait among faunus from what he’d seen. Whether they could use those wings to fly or not it seemed to the short boy that wings could easily be very problematic from function and maintenance to other factors such as wingspan and the potential issues they could cause in day to day life. Returning to the medical viewpoint it also created more bones to break, and particularly complex ones at that. With the added issue of worrying about what could and couldn’t hinder flight thrown in as well.
These traits all were the more common among the faunus, with variations that could very easily affect health in one way or the other depending largely on the animal and trait in question. He frowned remembering other traits he’d heard about that would be on the rarer side of the spectrum. Things like spider legs and hooves that could easily add whole new elements to one’s life such as being required to see specialists regarding healthcare. Then he had to consider the issues regarding mass and medication. Puer knew well these issues, since he himself was in many ways on the opposing side of the spectrums, being much more sensitive to medication due to his size and medical condition. He could imagine that somebody with a larger mass due to having extra parts, or simply larger scale components from animals would have issues with medication and dosage.
Puer sat back from the desk in his small dorm room as he looked over the several books he’d been looking over. It appeared that medical care for faunus was difficult, and Bellmuse had a fairly large population in regards to faunus to potentially need to treat, especially within the huntsman academy. He’d even heard about a spider faunus with eight legs walking around campus and would need to read more into learning exactly how to treat someone with that kind of trait.
The hidden issue within faunus traits hadn’t been missed by the eternal boy however. All the books he found primarily focused on more common faunus traits, as the number of potential traits that could manifest seemed practically infinite to the short boy considering the number of books. But what about less obvious traits like those that might affect someone internally, or simply traits that were less notable and more unorthodox like fish gills or the like. Internal faunus traits could happen after all and while you could develop the skill and knowledge to save humans from medical disaster, a faunus with different organs or different trait that changed how one might treat them. Such as faunus traits within the internal systems of their bodies such as organs or the like. It seemed rather rare, but such faunus did exist to some level or another from what he had read in the books he’d been looking through.
Puer sat back in his chair as his readings halted, thoughts on the unique health requirements of faunus racing through the short boy’s mind as he wondered how exactly these health conditions would affect himself. Puer wasn’t a surgeon, and for a lot of traits he’d probably only have to worry about the additional bones that could and would end up broken. However, there was another hidden issue he could see for the faunus with more radical trains. Blood lose was an issue that could affect different people differently regarding their mass, and that could probably be rather different for those with more radical traits such as horse legs or the like.
The small boy shook his head, wondering how many issues such things could bring before deciding he’d spent enough time researching. For now, he needed to get out and do something, the short boy proceeded to get up and clean the area a bit, before leaving the dorm.
