8+ years ago, I chose a path that wasn't just about healing bodies but about understanding pain both physical and emotional.

From holding a patient’s hand post-surgery to decoding the silent stories behind chronic back pain....
From long clinical hours to deep inner work as a mental health counselor....
From helping someone walk again to empowering them to stand tall in life.

This journey has been more than degrees and diagnoses !!
It’s been about connection. compassion. conviction.

✨ I’ve cried with patients.
✨ I’ve celebrated silent victories like the first pain free step.
✨ I’ve held space when words failed but healing still happened.

Today, on Doctor’s Day, I honour not just the science I practice,
but the soul I bring to it.

To every healer out there walking the fine line between science and humanity:
Thank you for choosing this path. For showing up. For never giving up.
Even when it's hard. Even when it hurts.

And to the younger version of me who once dreamed of wearing this white coat 🥼🩺
I’m proud of you.
We made it !!

🔹 Ever seen an X-ray where the upper airway narrows like a church steeple? That’s the Steeple Sign – often seen in croup or upper airway obstruction. It’s a key radiological clue, especially in pediatric cases.

🔹 It’s not a spinal issue, but mastering radiological signs helps us spot red flags early!

🔹Curious to learn more quirky signs and decode what X-rays reveal?

🔹Guess what?
I’ve started mentoring on Topmate — and this time, it’s not just about upskilling or sharing knowledge. It’s about building something bigger !!

🔹Every single session contributes to real-world causes — from funding sanitary pad distribution in government schools, to setting up digital libraries in underserved communities, to providing sports gear and travel support for young athletes.

🔹We always talk about giving back — but what if you could do it just by doing what you already do best? Talking. Teaching. Guiding.

🔹This is more than a platform. It’s a purpose. And it’s just getting started.

🔹If you believe in using your voice for something meaningful, now’s your moment.

🔹I’m thrilled to share a meaningful milestone in my journey as a professional.

🔹For years, I’ve had the privilege of working closely with patients as a . In fact, we Physiotherapists spend more time with our patients than most physicians, and during these moments, something always stood out to me – the unspoken emotions and mental struggles that often accompany physical pain.

🔹I began to realize that to truly help my patients heal, I needed to understand more than just the mechanics of the body. I needed to understand the mind. And so, my curiosity for psychology was born!

🔹This curiosity led me to dive deeper into the field of mental health, and I’m proud to say I’ve recently completed a 1-Year Advanced Counselling Course. The knowledge I’ve gained in areas like depression, anxiety, addiction, grief, and life transitions is not just a new chapter for me, but an additional tool in my professional toolkit I can use to better serve my patients.

🔹What excites me most is that this course helps me bridge the gap between physical and emotional healing. It’s given me the skills to address not only the body’s pain but also the mind’s struggles – both of which are so intricately connected.

🔹With the world shifting towards virtual spaces, I’m now conducting sessions to provide accessible support to my patients from anywhere. I truly believe that when we heal the body and mind together, we unlock the full potential of recovery.

🔹If anyone in your network is looking to explore how a approach can aid in their physical and health, feel free to reach out. I would love to connect and collaborate.

- Ergonomic risk management is the process of identifying, evaluating, and controlling ergonomic risk factors in the workplace to prevent or reduce musculoskeletal disorders (MSDs) and other injuries caused by repetitive motions, awkward postures, and excessive force.

- The goal of ergonomic risk management is to create a safer and healthier work environment for employees, reduce absenteeism and healthcare costs, and increase productivity and job satisfaction.

- I had a great time leading an ergonomic session for dentists at Health Spectrum, Baner.
It was a pleasure sharing my knowledge as a spine specialist & providing insights on how to improve workplace thereby increasing their efficiency.

💠Slipping rib syndrome occurs when the ligaments around the ribs move, causing the ribs to shift or “slip".
đź’ This syndrome usually occurs in 8th to 10th ribs (also known are false ribs) at the lower part of your rib cage. These ribs are not connected to the chest bone (sternum).
đź’ Fibrous tissue (ligaments), connect these ribs to each other to help keep them stable. The relative weakness in the ligaments can allow the ribs to move a little more than normal and cause pain.
đź’ The condition can occur as a result of:
- Injury to the chest while playing contact sports such as football, ice hockey, wrestling, and rugby
- A fall or direct trauma to your chest.
- Rapid twisting, pushing, or lifting motions, such as throwing a ball or swimming.
đź’ The condition usually occurs on one side. Rarely, it may occur on both sides. Symptoms include:
- Severe pain in the lower chest or upper abdomen. The pain may come and go and get better with time.
- A popping, clicking, or slipping sensation.
- Pain when applying pressure to the affected area.
- Coughing, laughing, lifting, twisting, and bending may make the pain worse.
đź’ Diagnosing SRS is the main challenge, which is based on the careful patient history, physical examination, and knowledge of its existence. However, following procedures can be used for diagnosis:
- Hooking maneuver: Reproduce the symptoms. This is a relatively simple clinical test where the clinician places his or her fingers under the lower costal margin and pulls the hand in an anterior direction. Pain or clicking indicates a positive test
- Intercostal nerve blocks can be performed after positive hooking manoeuvre, to confirm the diagnosis.
- Dynamic ultrasound of the ribs can be performed with valsalva, coughing, twisting, crunch and push manoeuvres to diagnose SRS.
