Firstly welcome to each and everyone who visits my post and i thank you for being here. Well we are in the 2nd week of the steem engagement challenge's. The topic of discussion is very interesting. Well i can definitely say that Columbia original brings out very interesting topic's. Well in that case i have had many awful memories related to hospital's because i was a crazy type of kid getting hurt almost every month. I know its funny but it's true almost every month a visit to hospital was a necessity because i hurted myself every month, sometime's serious injurues sometimes not so sorious. Lets tak about those in the post


Are you afraid of any medical instrument?

Well, its a shame that i fear some medical instruments. Even being a 22 year old completely grown up man i still am afraid of some medical instruments that include syringe. Yes that's true i fear syringes. Every time i see someone being injected with any medicine i close my eyes in fear. Thats one instrument i fear but there is something i fear more then the syringes its the Suture Needles.

My whole body shivers whenever i see someone getting sutures. I even freeze whenever i see something that has resemblance with the suture needles like i even fear the fish hook because that resembles with the suture needles. Getting sutures is my worst nightmare. As I mention i have been a kid who's getting hurt every month i used to get sutures sonw of the times. I will dhare somw more information regarding my sutures in the next question's.


Are you afraid of any medical specialist? To which? we would like to know why.

Yes i am afraid of one type of medical specialist that would be orthopedic. Well that doesn't mean i don't respect them I don't adore what they do but they are the ones where you will generally hear people crying out in pain. In my case my grandma was hit by a scooter & she got hurt in the head she got two sutures she didn't screamed there but after a while after performing a X-ray we came to know that her thumb was dislocated from its place.

She was shifted to the orthopedic department they started to grab her by her arms. And starting pulling her thumb so hard that she started screaming so hard that all the patients gathered around us & started asking what had happened. That's the reason i am afraid of those people. Ah! I almost forgot i also hurt my knee few days back but today i visited the hospital and went for an X-ray after the doctor prescribed me one. Thankfully it was alright but the way doctor twisted my knee cap & leg made me scream a little, after my scream i began to laugh at what i just did & suddenly the whole room started laughing after watching me screaming and laughing at the same time.

Do you remember any uncomfortable, painful, funny or unpleasant medical experience? Share it with us🙂


Oh yes i do remember one day, let's say the day was most unpleasant day of my life because that day gave me something i still am carrying & the thing is scars. Well it was a normal day in 2009 i was 8 years old that time we were playing badminton me & my brother my brother hit the shuttlecock & it got stuck on the neighbours roof, there was a wall attached to the roof i tried to climb it completely forgetting it is cracked at the middle. As soon as i crossed the mid way to the roof. As the wall was cracked the center of gravity shifted & i fell to the ground with those bricks falling on me or should i say falling on my head because head was the only part that got affected & trsut me i got 25 suture's at that day. Yes! That's my worst memory. After 13 years i still remember each and every detail of that accident. It was my uncle who got to the hospital & i was on bed for more then 2 months.


Did you experience any medical trauma in your childhood? Could you share it with us?

The insecure me

Well i have already mentioned the childhood trauma that i have faced. Well i want ro state that a trauma faced in childhood can leave scars on the mind for the whole lifetime. Not long time ago i was insecure because of my scar mark om my forehead, i was also insecure of my cut that i have on the right aide of my head. Its a place where i have no hair it used to be insecurity. I used to have long hairs in order to hide the scar under my hair but not ling time ago i trimmed all of my hair and got the scar exposed and i am not at all insecure because of my scar's. I have accepted the truth that i have to live like this so better is to accept the truth & live with this. The above picture shows how i used to hide my scar under my hair. The picture below shows how i flaunt my scar nowadays.

Have you experienced an accident or illness considered serious? What teaching did this experience leave you?


Yes definitely I have experienced serious kind of illness. Not long ago when I was in 12th grade I started feeling like I was having a weak eyesight. After I consulted my doctor I came to know that I had a serious ilness inm y eyes that is called keratoconus. Tools of you who don't know what this disease is, i would like to describe this as a false shaped cornea. In this case the cornea is thin at the point where it is supposed by thick and it continues to deform and eventually making you blind.

But thank God in my case I diagnosed it at a very critical level. My right I was more affected. And came to know that my corner thickness is 401 something I don't know how it measured I just know the number. If it decreased below 400 like in 390's range or 380's range we could not have done the surgery in that case we were left with no option other than corneal transplant that's very costly and hectic process.

Thank God I got the diagnosed at a good point I would say. being diagnosis with this disease I have fantasy of wearing eye glasses I was dump enough that I would sometime wish that my power should decrease a few points so that i can wear a eyeglass as we had to submit the documents in school before wearing any accessory. So after this thing happened to me I went for surgeries and now my cornea won't deform any more. Well the lesson that I learned from this illness is that BE CAREFUL WHAT YOU WISH FOR BECAUSE IT MIGHT COME TRUE.

Our eyes is the light of our body. Sometimes when the one eye had a problem it affects the other. Most a times operation in the eye can't survive. But I thank God that you survived at the end. Thanks for sharing.

El miedo a las jeringas es algo muy común, hay quienes tienen ejercicios de respiración para poder dejar inyectarse o tomarse alguna muestra de sangre.

Un amarga experiencia la vivida mientras jugabas con tu hermano, y por recuperar el volante que había caído en el techo de tus vecinos, y te cayeron esos ladrillos encima causándote una cicatriz.

Éxitos en el concurso.
