My Life Story

 Being a middle child belongs to middle class family. I had and have been facing almost same challenges youth graduates face.

3 years back I left home , I switch city, started practice solely from zero without depending on referrals, Pursued dual Degrees, i struggled for survival, tried freelancing, i did part time business too, i did work for upto 16 hours a day.

Cried alone in front of Allah, Depression tried to hit hard, i get stressed by work overload, Family issues, not generating enough revenues, out of savings... Like 80% of youth here, i have been through all this.

But i believe! Alhumdulillah, I survived (Yet battle is still continued). In recent years. I have learnt that, One must have a strong believe in Allah. Have flexible personality but a firm vision. Compromise if there's nothing harmful or wrong but don't compromise on your values. Don't allow anyone to disrespect you. Don't blame others, Don't "sell" your self. Don't let other powers to control your strings. Work on your demands. Don't fell for money. Invest in yourself and then make assets. Travel a lot. Don't waste money to impress others or making fake empire. 

If you want to fight, stay in the battle field. Have trustworthy team or fellows around you. Accept challenges, learn new things. Don't hesitate to meet new people & stay connected with your people. 

You can adopt different ethically possible ways to achieve your goals but don't forget your ambitions. Never get attracted to other faces because screens are colorful and purposefully made to showoff but Everyone is fighting with different stories, issues and behind the scenes. So stay focused on your story. 

One last thing! Ever wonder why most of the people around us are not happy with what they are doing?

Beacuse they either don't have own ideas and most commonly during their survival period, people stop their journey, leave their goals behind.  They stick to their survival position,  and try to satisfy their inner self to stay happy in survival mood throughout life. They stop struggle and spent their whole life just to survive daily.

No doubt! Survival is tough and revolutions doesn't happen overnight but atleast grow every day and chase your goals. Stay Strong, Its never too late. 

Believe in Allah and trust yourself. One Day, Inshallah, Very Soon.. You can make it possible.

Golfer's elbow | Symptoms, Causes and treatment

 Golfer's elbow, also known as medial epicondylitis, is a condition that causes pain and inflammation on the inner side of the elbow, where the tendons of the forearm muscles attach to the bony bump (medial epicondyle) on the inside of the elbow.


This condition is commonly caused by repetitive gripping, throwing, or lifting activities that strain the forearm muscles and tendons.


Symptoms of golfer's elbow can include pain and tenderness on the inner side of the elbow, stiffness or weakness in the wrist or forearm, and difficulty gripping or holding objects.


Treatment options for golfer's elbow may include rest, ice, anti-inflammatory medication, physical therapy, and in severe cases, surgery.


Prevention measures such as using proper equipment, warming up before physical activity, and avoiding overuse or repetitive strain can also help reduce the risk of developing golfer's elbow.

Wilson's disease | Causes, Symptoms and Treatment

 Wilson's disease is a rare genetic disorder that causes copper to accumulate in various organs of the body, especially the liver and brain.


This buildup of copper can cause a range of symptoms and complications, including liver disease, neurological problems, and psychiatric symptoms.


The condition is caused by mutations in the ATP7B gene, which is responsible for regulating copper levels in the body.


In people with Wilson's disease, this gene doesn't function properly, leading to excessive copper accumulation.


Symptoms of Wilson's disease can vary widely depending on the extent of copper accumulation and which organs are affected.


Some common symptoms include fatigue, abdominal pain, jaundice, tremors, difficulty with coordination, and changes in personality or behavior.


Physio therapy Management 

Physiotherapy can be beneficial in managing the neurological symptoms of the disease, such as tremors and difficulty with movement.


A physiotherapist can design movement therapy programs to improve strength, balance, and coordination, as well as prescribe exercises to manage muscle stiffness.


Additionally, physiotherapy may be helpful in addressing any pain or discomfort associated with the disease, improving overall quality of life for individuals with Wilson's disease.
