It has been psychologically proven that our health has a deep connection with our being that's to say that we can't function properly without being okay.

As a medical student I have had an encounter with different patients across the state that's within my reach and I must tell you for free that none of them feels happy while coming to the hospital only that they have clinged to their faith and kept hopes alive that they would be healed which sometimes comes to reality.

Today I will be touching areas for individuals where our health and our faith plays the roles of our well being. Let me tell you a story.

There's been a time when we went for posting and an elderly woman came in for Lumbosacral joint pains which to me might be as a result of degenerative disease such as Osteoarthritis considering her age. I guess she might be in her late 60s.

When I talked of Lumbosacral joint pain,Let me be your paragraph lady,it's a pains in the joint of L5 and S1 which has many factors that can cause it like trauma(a fall from height And so on) and Degenerative disease which happens to mothers of no longer at child bearing age.

In medical terms,we were supposed to carry out some examinations which involves the woman lying on her back on a couch but would remove all her body accessories to put on the clinical gown which covers only the front . And I must tell you that she refused cuz it was against her faith to go naked Infront of a man that's our chief radiographer ,which made us to allow her to go without the examination.

The aims of our health being paramount can't be over emphasized,In this context of the pics I posted above,it can be seen how fit she's performing her daily activities and exercise just because she was healthy. The benefits of our wellbeing can't be talked down in centuries to come .

I know I might sound a bit controversial here but as a medical student I would advice you to keep miracle healings and other religious deceits aside when it comes to your health,Seek it today and secure a bright future for you as well as your generations.

I didn't say that God doesn't heal but I would love you to have another opinion of why would there be knowledge given to doctors to provide solution to our health challenges when need arises. I have many things to discuss with us on this platform concerning our health but I would love to drop my pen here till the motivation comes next time and my love that motivation is you.

In my academic setting,I have come to realise that health isn't luxury but a necessity,Take responsibility of your health today and stand for others tomorrow cuz you can't help humanity on a sick bed or even grave.
Thanks for reading and I hope you enjoyed your time spent here.
