Photo Post . . . 14 April 2012 . . .

A glimpse of happenings at our place over the last week . . . .
X-Ray abdomen showing Sigmoid Volvulus

The same patient per operatively . . . 

Gall bladder with stones . . . 

This man with multiple swellings on his nose has been wanting to get it removed. . .
Recently, he had acquired a RSBY Card. I've promised to review when Dr Hiles comes visiting next time . . . 

Another view of the same patient . . . 

This patient already had tuberculosis treatment three times. As of now, his sputum is not positive for Acid Fast Bacilli. The major problem is that his lungs have been badly damaged. Damaged lungs and its management is one aspect of tuberculosis treatment which is hardly given much importance . . . 

Another patient with tuberculosis

Another patient who came with breathlessness who had anti-TB treatment for about a month about 10 years back . . . 

Miliary Tuberculosis 1

Miliary tuberculosis - 2


The spread of the disease and drug resistance is on the rise because of prescriptions like these . . . 

Pelvis of a young man on whom a murder attempt was made by running a tractor over him . . . Alleged caste violence. . . 

This is how a patient rather 'a dead body' was brought couple of days back. The patient was brought all the way from Gaya in Bihar. From the old treatment prescriptions, it looked like he was suffering from cardiac disease. . . Unfortunately, he died on the way . . . Tells volumes of healthcare in our part of the country . . . Gaya is about 250 kms from our place and has tertiary care facilities . . . . For those who could not recognise the snap, there is a body lying at the front of a mini truck . . .
