What is a coma? And do patients really hear you?
👩⚕️ Dr. Mahati Priyadharshini explains that coma is a deep state of unconsciousness where a person may not respond — but the brain is not completely inactive.
In many cases, patients may still sense voices and touch.
That’s why your presence matters.
✔️ Call them by their name
✔️ Speak calmly and positively
✔️ Offer gentle reassurance
These small actions can help stimulate the brain and support recovery.
Recovery from coma is slow and gradual — but it is possible.
With proper medical care and emotional support, every step forward counts.
Coma is not the end — it’s a phase of healing.
