Mitha Lal. a farmer from Dausa district ,was successfully treated at the SMS hospital in Jaipur,where he was admitted by chest pain and difficulty in breathing.
the most common treatment of this problem is surgery,which often leads to complications. however ,under such circumstance,using alcohol is a suitable option as it is less expensive and also safe.
