Morena: A doctor at Morena District Hospital in Madhya Pradesh was surprised to find a condom wrapper in the dressing of a woman’s head injury as he was going to change it, reported NDTV online. According to information available, a condom wrapper, along with cotton was tied on the woman’s head as a form of temporary bandage, to stop bleeding caused by a head injury in Porsa Community Health Centre of MP’s Morena.
