@Pradeep This is a good Q but it looks advice Q as of now..can "One of my neighbor is having health issues" be removed from Q to make it more general? – YDS Oct 24 '18 at 19:38

@YDS It wll still be a personal advice question if you remove that. The gist of the question doesn't change. There is already questions regarding whom to pray. But in these cases, we should not give false hopes that only mantras and stotras will help. That is the reason such questions are off-topic. They should see a doctor. – Sarvabhouma Oct 25 '18 at 02:40

Lord Shiva, also known as Vaidyanatheshwara, is to be worshiped for good health. In fact, offering milk to Shiva on the day of Pradosha is said to bestow long life.
