Definition of medical negligence & unethical practice (Indian edition):
-Bacha maar diya - jab laaye the toh bilkul theek tha
-ICU me daal diya aur mar gaya... upar se 20 logon ko andar bhi nahi jaane dete
-Discharge kar rahe hain? Abhi toh theek hi nahi hua! (govt hospital)
-2 din se admit karke rakha hai, ab toh hosh me hai - paise loot rahe hain! (pvt hosp)
-Bekaar doctor - bas diet, exercise, sleep bolta hai, dawa hi nahi deta.
-Bekaar doctor - itni saari dawa likh di... mujhe toh bas angina hai (diabetic, hypertensive, obese)
-Vaccine lagte hi chakkar aa gaya - hum pe experiment ho raha hai
-Docs ki opd fees itni zyada hogyi h ab, lootere 500 leliye mere (arrey new iphone khreedlete h)
@iPraveenSwami@web_vj You don’t need surgery for stones of this size, they’ll pass themselves. You don’t need this mumbo jumbo, just hydration is adequate. For future reference, stones of sizes more than ~10mm require surgery.
Why Ekadashi is the most powerful fasting day?
Ekadashi was not chosen randomly. It falls on the 11th day after the full and new moon a time when lunar gravity causes the highest fluid shifts inside the human body. Because our body is ~60% water, these shifts influence blood volume, lymph flow, brain chemistry, and hormonal balance.
During these lunar peaks, the gut and nervous system are more sensitive. Digestion becomes weaker and inflammation rises. Ancient physicians noticed that heavy meals on these days caused bloating, joint pain, brain fog, and fatigue. So they advised rest from food.
Fasting on Ekadashi reduces blood flow to the gut and lowers insulin. This allows the body to switch into fat-burning and cellular repair mode. Modern science calls this autophagy the same process that wins Nobel Prizes today.
That is also why grains were avoided on Ekadashi. Grains spike insulin, increase gut fermentation, and raise inflammation exactly when the body is least equipped to handle it. Fruits, nuts, milk, or complete fasting were allowed because they keep glucose and insulin stable.
Two Ekadashi fasts per month create 24 metabolic reset days per year. That is enough to improve insulin sensitivity, reduce fatty liver, lower triglycerides, and prevent diabetes and obesity without any extreme dieting.
Ekadashi is not a religious ritual.
It is lunar-synchronised metabolic maintenance.
Ancient India encoded biology into tradition.
@Lyio_1 First step would be to check your body temperature (armpit) after dinner. If it is below 98.6F then you're very likely Hypothyroid. DM me if you need more help.
Doctors promoting drugs by brand name?
Isn’t that prohibited in India?
Or zero regulation has emboldened doctors to do this?
How much did doctor get from pharma company to do this?
Saw a patient today in the hospital
32 year old male, admitted with a fracture neck of femur after trivial trauma.
He also had new onset hypertension.
A fracture at this age after minimal trauma always raises questions.
While taking history, the story unfolded.
About a year ago, he was lean and wanted to gain weight quickly.
Instead of fixing diet and nutrition, he consulted a quack.
He was prescribed deflazacort 6 mg twice daily and continued it for almost one year.
Yes, his weight increased.
But when I examined him, the picture was clear.
He had classic steroid induced Cushingoid features.
This was not healthy weight gain.
It was fat redistribution with muscle wasting, bone loss, and metabolic damage.
The result
An osteoporotic fracture at 32 and hypertension.
Steroids do not build muscle.
They weaken bones, break down muscle, and raise blood pressure.
There are no shortcuts to healthy weight gain.
Only proper nutrition, adequate protein, resistance training, and time.
Please do not trade long term health for quick fixes.
And please do not go to quacks.
🚨 BCCI VS BCB FINISHED IN NO SOLUTION 🚨
- After a brief talk between the BCCI and BCB, the Bangladesh Cricket Board refused to travel to India for the T20 World Cup, citing player 'safety and well-being' concerns 😨
- What's your take 🤔
One common thing people use in arguments on X the moment someone says I am a qualified expert - "Appeal to authority fallacy!"
There is a huge difference between a subject expert telling about his or her expertise and internet trolls and random junk opinions. You can use appeal to authority term, maybe when a politician or some influencer gives his opinion but not to a subject expert. Your hours or days or years on the internet don't give you even 1% of expertise on any subject unless you have formally studied or trained in that and have been certified. #mondaygyaan
For whoever is affected by @Grok ‘s Bikini prompt:
Please file a complaint against the person who gave that prompt. You don’t have to know the person’s identity. Screenshot and link of the profile of that person is sufficient.
1. Take the screenshot of the image and keep the link of the post in safe place. You will need it later on.
2. Depending upon circumstances, offences under 66E, 67A of Information Technology Act, and 77, 336(4) of Bhartiya Nyay Sangita are made out.
3. Go to the local Police Station. They will probably send you to jurisdictional cyber police station.
4. For directions to Grok and AI, in general, you would have to approach High Court.
Please don’t let that person get away. Acts like this should not be tolerated.
The hate for doctors in this country is getting out of control.
Yes, there are bad apples in our field and in every other profession too
There are engineers who take black money and build faulty roads.
There are government employees who demand bribes for work they are already paid to do.
There are police officers who side with criminals instead of civilians.
Yet, these professions are rarely generalized.
But let one doctor do something wrong, or one corporate hospital overcharge and suddenly every doctor becomes greedy, heartless, and corrupt.
Doctors working 36-hour shifts, without holidays, without festivals, without time for family, this is normalized with a single line:
“You chose this profession.”
Recently, I made a simple post saying I have night duty on the 31st.
I didn’t complain.
I didn’t say I was special.
I didn’t say I was unhappy.
Still, people swarmed in to say:
“Others also work nights.”
“If you don’t like it, leave.”
That reaction itself explains the deeper issue.
I can understand where some of this hatred comes from.
One reason is jealousy whether people admit it or not.
Nearly 15 lakh students appear for NEET every year.
That number alone shows how many people want to become doctors.
When they don’t get in, disappointment slowly turns into bitterness.
Another reason is money.
When people see a doctor charging ₹1000 for a 5–10 minute consultation, they immediately do mental math
“How much does this doctor earn per month?”
What they don’t calculate is the price paid before that moment.
That consultation fee comes after at least a decade of intense studying.
While many were enjoying their 20s....traveling, partying, earning, settling down....
we were in libraries, wards, night duties, exams, failures, and constant pressure, using that same time differently.
The earning starts late.
The responsibility starts early.
And the consequences of a mistake are permanent.
And God forbid, when you or your family faces a serious illness..
it is us you will come to.
Not engineers.
Not influencers.
Not comment sections.
Doctors are not gods.
Doctors are not perfect.
But doctors are human beings carrying responsibilities most people will never experience.
Criticize wrongdoing.
Hold systems accountable.
But stop turning hatred into a personality trait.
It’s time to calm down.
It’s time to bring back basic respect for doctors.
