Mr. Parvin has long been suffering from a herniated disc. The worsening of this condition has caused him joint and muscle pain. Despite requiring medical treatment and attention from an orthopedic doctor, a neurologist, and an internal medicine specialist, he has not received any specialized medical services so far. Prison officials have even prevented the delivery of prescribed medications—prepared by his family—from reaching him.
