Ans: Hello Hemu,
Have you done x-ray/MRI for your shoulder and cervical spine?
We need to first know the exact cause of your shoulder pain as it could be due to some shoulder issues or it could be coming from your neck.
So please do let me know what is the exact cause and then can guide you.

I had frozen shoulder problem as told to me in my left hand and from November, 2020 to August, 2021 i consulted various reputed orthopedic surgeons and even got treatment from Safdarjang Sports Injury Centre New Delhi and as per advice got physiotherapy treatment for full one year but to no avail. Then in September, 2020 i consulted one of the top most Ortho Surgeons who after xray etc. told me that he will give me two injections(whereas he gave three such injections) and my problem will be got with physio treatment in three months but from day one his physio told him that my shoulder is very stiff and only solution is to get MRI done and then operation be done which was done in October, 2020 and I was told that after five week physio i will be ok but even after operation there was so much pain at the time of physio and afterwards that i could not have sleep for 20/22 hours and then Doctor extended time limit to two months and then to three months but even after five months there was no relief. ultimate i stopped treatment and consulted another ortho in south delhi reputed hospital he told me that my veins were weak and at the first place i stopped hard core physio and that surgery was not a best option. Though after I stopped physio and started doing light exercises at home there is slight improvement but at times i have great pain at lower of my shoulder/shoulder and upper half portion of left hand. It is one year since i have started treatment from present ortho. What to do?
Ans: Hello Ravinder,
What did your MRI and x-ray show? What was the operation done exactly for?

NEET, Medical, Pharmacy Careers - Answered on May 06, 2025

Hello sir I have taken a 1 year drop for neet 2025 from pw online . But now I am scoring only 300 in neet .Now i am very confused what to do should I take one more drop or chose any option. This time i want to join offline coaching and really want to work hard but afraid that the coaching centre after knowing my marks will give me their worst batch so what should i do ?
Ans: Hi Ritika,
You mentioned that you scored only 300 in NEET. While we can't make any judgments until the official results are published, I must say that a score of 300 is quite low.

If you're planning to reappear for NEET, that's a good decision! However, I understand you might be worried about the coaching classes placing you in a less suitable batch. I recommend attending for 2 or 3 days while attending the coaching just follow the below instructions.

Make a list of the subjects and chapters you find challenging. Discuss these areas with your coaching faculty and aim to ask at least 15-20 questions daily to clarify your doubts and enhance your understanding. Additionally, request tips and tricks for each chapter so that you can put in a lot of effort to reach your goal.

Alternatively, you can prepare 10 questions on your own and seek answers from your coaching faculty. If you maintain this practice throughout the course, you'll build your confidence, and the coaching staff may consider changing your group due to your proactive approach in asking questions.

Through NEET, you can also pursue other medical-related courses such as BAMS, BSMS, BHMS, BYMS, BNYS, and BDS.

If you don’t have confidence in yourself, you might consider dropping NEET and exploring other courses. However, I encourage you to take one chance and follow my suggestions.

Additionally, if you are not already practicing yoga and meditation, I recommend starting. These activities can help you concentrate better and reduce distractions while studying.

Best of luck!

Ans: Hi Ritika,
Good decision! Offline coaching is far better than online coaching because it allows you to focus on your studies more effectively.

You mentioned that you need to crack the exam, so here are some tips on how to do that:

First, identify which subjects and chapters you find challenging and make a list. Discuss these areas with your coaching faculty. Aim to ask at least 10 questions daily to clarify your doubts and enhance your understanding.

Alternatively, you can prepare 10 questions on your own and seek answers from your coaching faculty. If you maintain this practice throughout the course, you will build your confidence.
