Unexpected hospital experience｜Hospital Center Of Reference Regional Morondava

The last thing you want to happen while traveling is getting injured and needing medical treatment. During the trip to Tsingy de Bemaraha National Park, my travel companion accidentally sprained his waist and was in so much pain that he could hardly walk, so he had to go to the regional hospital in Morondava for treatment. This hospital is larger than expected, but the overall environment is quite old and the equipment is quite simple, so diagnosis and treatment mainly rely on the doctor's experience. Although the pain was slightly relieved after diagnosis and treatment and he could walk slowly, resources were limited at the time and further examinations were not possible. After returning to Hong Kong and seeking further medical treatment, he discovered that his injuries were actually serious and required a long period of rest and treatment. It is also a reminder: when doing outdoor activities in remote areas, you must be careful and safe, and it is also recommended to prepare basic medical and insurance information during the trip. Although this episode was difficult, it also made us realize the limitations and preciousness of local medical resources, and made us cherish every safe trip even more.
