Correction- I have been experiencing pain in Left arm following nerve compression at C5-C6. Medicines have not helped and I have been adviced for Surgery by my ortho MD. Physiotherapy had aggravated the case causing continuous tingling sensation. How long does it take for recovery post surgery and can one continue normal life style without restrictions. Also , are there any risks involved in such surgeries?

Ans: C5-6 compressions can be helped by right kind of Physiotherapy. It should aggregate the problem by physio that means it is, not done the right way. Kindly consult Dr. Kannan Pugazhendi, Sparrc institute

Hi Doctor, My query is regarding Physiotherapy. I recently underwent a surgery for 'Flexor Tenosynovitis' of the Thumb. I am currently undergoing physiotherapy since last 1 month to regain thumb movement. My queries are: (1) Is it possible that index finger adjacent to the affected thumb gets sore due to physiotherapy of the thumb. There is no pain , only soreness of the index finger since last 1 month. (2) How many days/ weeks it takes to regain complete normalcy in thumb movement, especially the bending of thumb. At present my thumb is extremely stiff and I can hardly bend it. (3) Is it possible to regain 100% normalcy of thumb movements by doing physiotherapy? For reference I'm 36 yrs of age and physically fit. Thanks in advance.
Ans: Thank you for your query regarding physiotherapy following your surgery for Flexor Tenosynovitis of the thumb. It is possible for the index finger adjacent to the affected thumb to become sore during physiotherapy. This soreness can occur due to increased use or compensation during exercises aimed at improving thumb mobility. The muscles and tendons of the hand are interconnected, and stress on one area can affect adjacent areas. Ensure that your physiotherapist is aware of the soreness in your index finger so they can adjust your exercises or provide specific techniques to alleviate the soreness.

The time it takes to regain full movement in the thumb can vary based on the severity of the initial condition, the extent of the surgery, and individual healing rates. Generally, it may take several weeks to months. Stiffness is common in the early stages of recovery, but continued physiotherapy, including range-of-motion exercises and stretching, will gradually improve flexibility and movement. Many individuals can achieve significant improvement and even full recovery of thumb movement with consistent physiotherapy, but the extent of recovery can vary.In a retrospective study of 41 patients with flexor tenosynovitis, Dailiana et al. found that the best functional outcome associated with this condition resulted from early diagnosis, drainage through small incisions, and continuous postoperative irrigation. Worse outcomes were associated with delayed treatment and infections with specific pathogens. By following these guidelines and working closely with your physiotherapist, you should be able to maximize your recovery and regain as much thumb function as possible.

What are possibilities of getting maintenance for a working woman (with a kid) from husband . My husband has abandoned us since birth of my daughter 4years. Not taking the child's responsibility. Husband says as I am earning I should take care of financial requirement of the child too. I am doing extra duties/ work just to take care of my daughter's education and future. As I am a healthcare professional my work consists of night duties. These duties are taking toll on my health and also my daughter's . People are saying as I am a working woman I can't claim maintenance from husband. But taking care of young child is more difficult with working. I just can't leave my job , just to show nil income to claim maintenance as no one is there to support me and my daughter. Hiring a nanny , maid etc along with rent comes around 85k per month apart from school expenses. As I live in metropolitan city. Husband earns more than me but transfers money to his mother's account.He has taken me granted financially since marriage.Not able to save anything for the future. Don't have any property on my name .
Ans: Dear Anonymous,
This is a question for a legal expert; so go ahead and seek the guidance of someone who can handle your case. Along with this, you will have to think of a good balance that will allow for you to manage work and home plus your health.

All the best!

Hello sir, I am planning to buy a flat, with some stock sale proceeds and bank loan. Can I claim section 54F, for the entire registration amount for a flat, along with registration fee ? Or bank loan part is not considered
Ans: Eligibility for Section 54F
Section 54F provides capital gains exemption when selling assets like stocks.
You must invest the full net sale proceeds in a residential property.
The new flat must be purchased within two years or constructed within three years.
You should not own more than one residential house at the time of sale.
Treatment of Bank Loan Under Section 54F
Exemption applies only to the portion funded by stock sale proceeds.
The bank loan portion is not considered for exemption.
You need to invest the entire net sale proceeds to claim full exemption.
Registration Charges and Stamp Duty
Registration charges and stamp duty qualify as part of the property cost.
These expenses can be included for exemption under Section 54F.
However, only the part paid from capital gains is eligible.
Ensuring Full Exemption
If you reinvest only part of the net sale proceeds, the exemption is partial.
Any remaining capital gain will be taxed.
To avoid tax, the full capital gain amount must be reinvested.
Tax Implications If Conditions Are Not Met
If you sell the new property within three years, the exemption is reversed.
The capital gain becomes taxable in the year of sale.
Ensure compliance with all conditions to retain tax benefits.
Alternative Planning Strategies
If full reinvestment is not possible, consider capital gains bonds.
These bonds provide an alternative exemption under Section 54EC.
This helps in tax-efficient planning while keeping liquidity options open.
Final Insights
Section 54F helps save tax if proceeds are fully reinvested.
The bank loan portion does not qualify for exemption.
Registration costs can be included but only if paid from capital gains.
Ensure compliance to avoid future tax liabilities.
