Are antibiotics being prescribed like candies?

“Azithral le lo.” How often have you heard that? 💊 A small course of antibiotics can feel harmless. “It’s only ₹50–₹100. If it works, great. If it doesn’t, I’ll see a doctor later.” But that’s exactly where the problem begins. Unnecessary or inappropriate antibiotic use can contribute to antibiotic resistance. And when you eventually develop a serious infection, the medicines that should have worked may no longer be effective. By the time some patients reach a hospital, they may already have complications, a long history of self-medication and multiple incomplete or inappropriate antibiot

What Does Independence Really Mean After a Brain Injury? | ft. Mr. Ganapathy Arumugham

Independence is something we often take for granted—until a stroke, brain injury, or neurological condition suddenly takes it away. What does it really mean for a person to become independent after neurological injury? Is it simply being able to walk? Or is it being able to dress yourself, eat, use the bathroom, move around your home, return to work, and participate in life again? In this special Independence Day episode of Rebooting the Brain, we are joined by Mr. Ganapathy Arumugham, Senior Occupational Therapist, Head of the Department of Occupational Therapy, Advanced Neuro Rehab Specia

Do we need more doctors or more hospitals?

Is healthcare actually saturated—or are the jobs? 🩺 There’s a big difference between saying “there aren’t enough jobs for doctors” and saying “there is no need for more doctors.” With a population of around 1.4 billion and tens of thousands of hospitals, the healthcare workforce and the number of healthcare organizations aren’t necessarily growing at the same rate. So yes, jobs can be saturated. But does that mean the healthcare needs of the population have been met? If every specialty were truly saturated, there would be no patients left to treat. The real question may not be “Are there

Dari Tappida Maga - its not just a saying

“Dari Tappida Maga” — sometimes, getting lost can mean much more than losing your way. 🧠 We’ve all heard the Kannada phrase. But for families living with dementia, getting lost can become a heartbreaking reality. A man who had lived in the same house for 50–60 years was once found wandering the streets of Malleswaram because he could no longer find his way home. Some patients may even become disoriented inside their own homes—going to the wrong room or forgetting where familiar places are. These aren’t simply moments of forgetfulness. They can be signs of changes in the brain associated w

Should medical series have drama and comedy?

What happens when Bollywood meets brain surgery? 🧠🎬 Cardboard hearts, dramatic operating rooms, surgeons dancing around the table… we’ve all seen the clichés. But when Dr. Sharan Srinivasan and Dr. Jagdish Chaturvedi created Bheja UnFry, they made a conscious choice not to make neurosurgery comical. The humour could be there. The storytelling could be entertaining. But the medicine had to remain real. Because when you’re telling stories about the brain, patients and their lives, there’s a fine line between making people laugh and making light of something that matters deeply. In convers

Do you love medical series?

Most medical shows entertain. This one actually teaches. 🧠🎬 From Grey’s Anatomy and Scrubs to House MD and The Good Doctor, medical dramas usually balance storytelling with medical information. But Starting Troubles takes a very different approach. Across all six episodes, the story is packed with real neurological and neurosurgical concepts—from tremors and surgical options to rehabilitation and its role in recovery. It’s entertainment, but it’s also designed to make people understand what actually happens to the brain and how patients can recover. In conversation with Dr. Sharan Srini

If you get lost in a familiar place, don’t ignore it

He went to the bank. He couldn’t find his way home. 🧠 A man went to a familiar place in his neighbourhood—but when it was time to return, he couldn’t figure out how to get home. This can be a form of visual-spatial or geographical disorientation, where the brain struggles to understand and navigate familiar surroundings. The visual system has different pathways involved in recognizing objects, colours and faces and in understanding where we are in space. When these networks are affected, navigation can become surprisingly difficult. This can occur with conditions such as stroke, dementia,

Are group sports sub par to individual sports?

Every medal tells a story—but in individual sports, there are no teammates to carry you, no tactics to hide behind, and no shortcuts. It's just discipline, preparation, resilience, and mental strength competing against the same qualities in another human being. From the track to everyday life, the brain's ability to stay focused under pressure often becomes the biggest differentiator. Excellence isn't built in the spotlight—it's built in thousands of unseen moments of training, consistency, and determination. Which individual sport inspires you the most?

Can you imagine seeing everything double?

What would you do if you suddenly saw everything double? 👁️ Even a temporary disturbance in vision can be incredibly distressing. For someone experiencing double vision, something as simple as reading, walking or looking at another person can suddenly become difficult. This can happen in conditions such as diabetes when the nerves controlling eye movements are affected. The reassuring part? In many cases, with appropriate treatment and good blood sugar control, the affected nerve function can recover over time. And when the vision finally returns to normal, patients often realize just how

Your emotions can you a worse or a better doctor. You need to choose which.

Can doctors afford to let emotions affect their decisions? 🩺 Medicine isn’t emotionless. Doctors get frustrated, upset and affected by what happens to their patients. But when emotions become overwhelming, they can cloud judgment, behaviour and the ability to make the right decisions for the patient. The challenge isn’t to stop caring. It’s to care deeply without allowing emotion to interfere with doing what is best for the patient. That’s a skill that comes with experience—and conscious effort.

Are medical students more prone to get tuberculosis?

Are doctors putting their own health at risk while treating others? 🩺 Doctors in training often work long night shifts, skip meals, lose sleep and spend hours around patients with infectious diseases—including tuberculosis. That combination can make healthcare workers particularly vulnerable, while they are busy caring for everyone else. And here’s something many people don’t realize: TB can affect the brain even without a fever. Healthcare workers spend their lives looking after others. But who is looking after them? In conversation with Dr. Sharan Srinivasan and Dr. Sujit Kumar. 🎥 Wa

How can you be blind and still see?

He couldn’t see. But his eyes could. 👁️🧠 A patient who had suffered strokes affecting both sides of his brain said he couldn’t see anything. So doctors tested him. Ten objects were shown to him randomly. He couldn’t consciously identify six of them—but his eyes were still detecting the visual information. This fascinating phenomenon is known as blindsight: the brain can sometimes process visual information even when a person is consciously unaware of seeing it. It sounds impossible. But the brain doesn’t always work the way we think it does. In conversation with Dr. Sharan Srinivasan a

Could you anxiety be something bigger?

She was treated for anxiety. The real problem was in her brain. 🧠 A young woman was being treated for a psychiatric illness. Her complaints seemed simple—headaches and difficulty seeing on one side. But she kept insisting that something was wrong with her vision. When she was finally examined, she had a classical hemianopia, meaning she was unable to see one side of her visual field. Further investigation revealed a large mass on the right side of her brain caused by tuberculosis. The good news? It was completely treatable with medication. Her story is an important reminder: when symptom

A question that an educated academician from kerala couldn’t answer

If a Vice-Chancellor didn’t know this, do you? 🧠 During a conversation with senior academicians and scientists, a simple question revealed just how much there is still to learn about neuroscience: “Do you know what a stroke-ready hospital is?” The answer? He was hearing the term for the first time. From stroke and optic neuritis to vision loss, brain tumours and neurorehabilitation, there is an enormous amount of neuroscience that most of us never learn about—until it affects us or someone we love. That’s exactly why we’re doing these conversations: to make neuroscience easier to underst

What if your world became black and white?

Imagine waking up and the whole world is black and white. 🖤🤍 You can see the curtain. You can see the dress. You can see everything around you—but what happens when your brain can no longer process colour? In its more extreme form, a condition called achromatopsia can make the world appear completely colourless, almost like watching an old black-and-white movie. It’s a fascinating reminder that seeing something and understanding what you’re seeing are not always the same thing.

Can accidents be a sign of brain tumour?

17 accidents. One brain tumour. 🧠 For six months, a High Court lawyer had 17 accidents—all on the right side of his car. He also started holding documents differently while arguing in court. These seemingly unrelated changes went unnoticed until one morning, when he suffered a seizure and was brought to the emergency department. Imaging revealed a large brain tumour affecting the optic radiations—an area involved in the brain’s visual pathway. Sometimes, neurological warning signs can appear in everyday behaviour long before the diagnosis becomes obvious. In conversation with Dr. Sharan

Share with someone who has migraines !

Your migraine might start with what you see—not what you feel. 👁️✨ Before the headache even begins, some people experience a fascinating visual phenomenon called a scintillating scotoma—a blind spot surrounded by flashing or shimmering lights. Some people can even draw exactly what they see during their migraine aura. For someone experiencing it for the first time, it can be frightening. But recognizing these visual symptoms as a possible migraine aura can help make sense of what is happening.

What causes you to lose vision suddenly?

She couldn’t even see light. Then she saw again. 👁️🧠 A woman developed complete loss of vision in both eyes within a single day. She couldn’t even perceive light. She was eventually diagnosed with bilateral optic neuritis, and treatment restored vision in both eyes. Further evaluation revealed a recurrent form of optic neuritis associated with neuromyelitis optica. Sudden loss of vision can have serious neurological causes, but with the right diagnosis and timely treatment, recovery can sometimes be remarkable.

How are your eyes and brain connected?

He was only 35—and a severe headache was the first warning sign. 🧠 After a week of severe headaches, he suddenly collapsed at work. When he was examined, he could see straight ahead—but had lost his ability to see to either side. This unusual visual field defect, known as bitemporal hemianopia, pointed towards a problem involving the optic chiasm. Further evaluation revealed a large pituitary tumour. Timely intervention made all the difference, and after the tumour was removed, his visual fields largely returned to normal. Sometimes, a symptom that seems ordinary can be the first clue to

How do you not recognise your own wife?

He could see his wife. He just couldn’t recognize her. 🧠 Imagine looking directly at someone you know and love, being able to see their face and even describe what they look like—but being completely unable to identify who they are. This is called prosopagnosia, or face blindness. In this case, an area of the brain involved in recognizing faces had reduced blood supply. It wasn’t a misunderstanding. It wasn’t a relationship problem. It was the brain. In conversation with Dr. Sharan Srinivasan and Dr. Sujit Kumar. 🎥 Watch the full episode on Rebooting the Brain for more fascinating stori

A droopy eyelid could be more serious than you think. 👁️🧠 A third nerve (oculomotor nerve) palsy can sometimes be associated with conditions as common as uncontrolled diabetes—but doctors still need to rule out more serious causes, including aneurysms. The important message? Don’t assume. Investigate. Imaging can help rule out dangerous causes, while diabetic third nerve palsy often improves with appropriate treatment and good blood sugar control. When it comes to neurological symptoms, the simplest explanation should come after the dangerous ones have been ruled out. In conversation wi
