Diwali Accident


Festive Season of Diwali often sees an increase in the number of injuries, and this time around it was me who got injured. On 20th Oct'08, a week before Diwali, I was in my local market. Someone beside the road lighted a diwali firecracker rocket which came zooming towards me and hit me on my left ear. I rushed to the hospital to get all banded up and was giving 5 stitches to stop the bleeding area.
Three days have now passed, I still have the buzzing sound in my ear, doctor says this will remain for another month. I have a small hole in my inner ear membrane and also the nerves behind it are damaged because of the shock.
