Illness is part of life. Most people experience illness in their lives, so they may get treatment from doctors. I have had two surgical treatments in my life so far. When I was a child, I was sick frequently. During the 70s and 80s, doctors liked to prescribe injections for patients, so my hips got shots pretty often. When I went to elementary school, I realized that my two legs could not stick close while squatting. I had a Gluteus maximus contracture because of over-injections. This symptom was widely noticed during that time. I told my parents, and they took me to NTU Hospital to get surgery. That was my first surgery. My second surgery took place in 2024. I had shoulder and neck pain for a couple of years. The neurologist arranged an MRI scan of my neck, and he found a cervical spine problem. I decided to get surgery in August 2024 because of persistent pain. I had an ACDF surgery to remove herniated discs (C4-5-6). These two surgeries were all related to bones.
