Just came home after a night in trauma ward: The night after #TASMAC reopened for the 1st time since May 10. Needless to say that I was prepared to face a heavy case load of Road traffic accidents under #alcoholinfluence. And I wasn't surprised. It was triple the usual case load.
Patients came with broken bones to pneumothorax to brain hemorrhage due to RTA/self fall under alcoholic influence. Patients came with stab wounds all over body due to assault by other persons under alcohol influence. I knew people would drink irresponsibly after one dry month.
But what I saw among those patients were their families in tears. A wife of a middle aged man said he was doing good during the last month without alcohol and when he heard TASMAC is opened, he couldn't control himself. Being drunk, he fell down the stairs, got brain hemorrhage.
