Pain...

being a dentist i have to deal with this PAIN daily....the fear...n everything...people come n say jus rid me of this pain..or will it pain during the procedure etc etc...

why r v all so afraid of this pain.....it is body reaction to alarm us something is going wrong somewhere...its a protective mechanism...cant v jus know it n live wit it...ok so what if it pains..i will deal with it.....why dont v think like this... why do v want to escape pain...

if u can feel the pain its good...it means u know something is amiss that needs to be corrected...and it also means whatever needs to corrected is still correctable....

love the sentence in kailash khers song allah ke bande : dard ko saath lele dard bhi tere kaam aayega

periodontitis i feel is dreadful....u dont feel pain...so u dont know something is wrong n more often then not...most patients who come to us with it have to get their tooth extracted as the disease has progressed so much...there is so much bone lost that the tooth loses its support

same with diabetes......ur nerves get damaged...u dont feel pain...u might have a huge ulcer in ur foot without knowing about it.....people die coz they have silent heart attacks...n they dont realize that their heart is having an ATTACK

leprosy..another disease that is painless...the bacteria damage nerves..so even though your limbs r rotting dont feel the pain...


my profession thrives on pain...in a way it good n its bad...coz people come to us only when they have pain..n pain means either tooth can be saved wit root canal or u have to extract it (as the tooth is infected)...n root canal n a crown over it means monetary loss.....its a bit expensive procedure...n most people over here r not too happy abt it...but the good part is root canal can at least save the tooth..

sometimes the tooth doesnt pain at all but breaks down into smaller pieces n falls out...if thats the case then v have no choice but to extract the tooth..n that means LOSS OF TOOTH.....so here again absence of pain is harmful

if people came to us before they have pain...the decay can be removed n filling can be done...this is definately less expensive...but again who goes to a dentist without PAIN


lets learn to deal with pain..n i mean not only physical but emotional too...any relation that has the power to make u feel hurt can survive..can be held tight...can be revived...the day u dont feel the pain....when u stop feeling in a relation means u indifferent to it..it does not matter to u then...its a lost cause then...

m not saying live in pain....or its great to be in pain etc etc...jus lets not run away from it......lets not be afraid of it

dead people dont feel any pain....if u feel it..U R ALIVE
