  • EXCLUSIVE: By Sudipto Maity in India An Indian man complaining of stomach ache had over 100 iron nails removed from his intestine by doctors. The operation took place on Monday in the country's north west Rajasthan state. Reports said 42-year-old Bhola Shankar had reached the government hospital in Bundi town , complaining of excruciating pain. However, it was after conducting the initial tests that doctors were left baffled. X-ray of the patient showed a cluster of a rather unusual item in the man's stomach. A CT scan confirmed the suspicion. Operating on the patient, a team of surgeons, led by Dr Anil Saini, recovered and removed at least 116 iron nails. The team also shot a video of the operation, which showed nails being extracted from the intestine of the patient. Saini said, "This is the first such case I have come across," The doctor added it may be the first time something like this took place in Rajasthan. In 2017, doctors had removed at least 150 stationary pins from a patient's stomach in the same town. "What surprised us was the length of the nails. They measured 6.5 centimetres. To have such big iron nails removed from a patient's body is unprecedented," the senior doctor added. He also called it a bizarre case. Meanwhile, doctors have deemed the patient mentally imbalanced. "The patient is not able to narrate how the nails ended up in his intestine," Saini said, adding, "He is lucky the sharp objects did not puncture his organs, else, it could have proved fatal." The patient's younger brother said the former has been taking medicine for mental illness for the last two and half decades. However, he too couldn't explain how the nails ended up there. Doctors believe the man was in the habit of swallowing sharp objects as apart from the nails, doctors also extracted metal wires. Despite the lengthy operation, the patient was recovering well. 13 May 2019 Pictured: An x-ray of Bhola Shankar's stomach shows nails accumulated inside his body at a state-run hos

  • EXCLUSIVE: Magnus News Agency newsdesk@magnusnewsagency.com +44(0)7487271690 A PAIR OF MIRACLE TWINS BORN TOTALLY DEAF CAN NOW INCREDIBLY SPEAK TWO LANGUAGES FLUENTLY WITH PIX AND VIDEO By Magnus News Agency Miracle twin brothers Zack and Dylan were born totally deaf but thanks to an amazing implant and pioneering therapy they are now bilingual and able to speak fluent English and Italian. The seven-year-old boys from Bath, Somerset, were born without any hearing after doctors suspect an infection damaged their ear canals in the womb. But thanks to pioneering work from medics and therapists in the US and the UK the twins now live happy hearing lives and can speak two languages. Mum Deborah Pezzuto, 51, and her husband moved to England from New York after their sons were born. Just ten days after Deborah gave birth she was devastated to be told by US doctors initial tests showed both Zack and Dylan were profoundly deaf. Stunned by the diagnosis, Deborah was even more shocked to discover the twins would be able to hear sound thanks to cochlear implants, which could be installed at six months old. After moving to the UK in 2013, the Pezzutos have been cared for by specialists at the John Radcliffe Hospital in Oxford, as well as receiving support from the charity AV (Auditory Verbal) UK. Deborah, who runs a life coaching business, lives with her husband Alessandro, 47, and the twins, as well as their daughter Keisha, aged 8. Deborah said: “The world is made of sound and my kids are so happy to learn the sounds, play music and do everything like other children and their sister can do. “When they started at the school I was really scared because they were the youngest in the class, being born at the end of July. “The first two months were difficult as they got used to the noise of the environment, but after that they started doing everything that all the other kids were doing. “They have a lot of friends, they talk and do shows, everything. “They are fluent in b

  • Thai hospital gives masks to women embarrassed about getting Pap smear..The women who received a free Pap smear test at a hospital in Kamphaeng Phet province last week didn’t need to feel embarrassed about getting an absolutely normal medical check, because they could hide behind creepy green masks...This head-scratching initiative, called “The Mask Pap Smear,” was started by Sa Kaew sub-district office and the Nong Krot Hospital, to decrease the awkwardness between the doctors and patients who are shy about getting a gynecological exam...The project was targeted at women aged 30-70.According to sub-district governor Suwan Supakijchareon, the initiative was successful because many women showed up to get free Pap smears, now that they could wear a mask and didn’t need to let the doctors see their faces,.©TipcableTV/Exclusivepix Media (Credit Image: © Exclusivepix media via ZUMA Press)

  • “I tested positive,” says Jemimah Mokubunge, on Friday, June 5, 2020, holding a (health-union SAFTU) sign that alleges that Tygerberg nurse Ntombizakithi Ngidi, who died of COVID-19 related illness, was initially refused medical care by her superiors. <br />
Mokubunge is a clerk handling patients’ hospital records. “Sometimes we get coronavirus patients’ records,” she said. “And there was no sanitizer. Most of the people (in the department) got positive.”<br />
When the first person in her department contracted the virus, that employee was the one to notify her colleagues by calling them from isolation, explains Mokubunge. “We asked to be tested,” she said. But “they refused us to get tested.” <br />
“Only when the second person tested positive were we allowed to get tested,” she said. “I tested positive. I did not feel sick.” <br />
Mokubunge lives with her husband, mother and nine-month old baby. “They said I could isolate with the baby,” she said she was advised by the health professionals.  <br />
After quarantining at home for 14 days, Mokubunge was told to go back to work. No retesting was available, she said. Her family tested negative for the virus. <br />
