Success story of a patient treated at Hunjan Hospital
Sagar Mehta, Ludhiana
Like any other sports enthusiast, I was into following a strenuous work regime. But due to overuse and excess pressure, it resulted in musculoskeletal injury. Through online research, I came from Hunjan Hospital. During the initial consultation, the doctor will do some tests to have a better look at my condition and point out the exact issue. He suggested some medications and later I was asked to get the steroid injection which helped me with the inflammation. Later the doctor started physical therapy.
Now, it has been 2 months and I am feeling much better. I can do everything on my own. All thanks to the team of doctors at Hunjan hospital. Highly recommend consulting them for your health issues.
