“Getting a procedure done with local anaesthetic to fix my dislocated fourth toe… and of course, I had bang it on the corner of my bed this morning. Thank God for family insisting that I get treated immediately. (sic)

“Luckily orthopaedic specialist Dato Dr Oh Kim Soon from Penang Island Hospital was kind enough to relocate it today even though he is enjoying his CNY holidays. Thanks doc! (sic)” he wrote in his post.

As of 12.30pm today, his post has garnered over 12,000 likes, 173 shares, and over 3,000 comments wishing him a speedy recovery. — DayakDaily
