Why is treatment sometimes done earlier than the payment?
When a case is urgent and vital, hospitals often proceed with delivering medical care right away to save a life, even before the finalisation of admission procedures. Usually, when this happens, hospitals put the bill on our credit until the funds are transferred to their accounts. That’s why the chronology can sometimes be in disorder.

About bones & joints
Anterior Cruciate Ligament Injury (grade -3). An ACL injury is a tear or sprain of the anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) — one of the strong bands of tissue that help connect thigh bone (femur) to shinbone (tibia). If left untreated, ACL injury may turn into chronic ACL deficiency. In this condition a knee becomes more and more unstable. The abnormal sliding within the knee also can hurt cartilage. It can trap and damage menisci in the knee and can lead to early osteoarthritis.

Background
Mohammad is a 17 y.o. young man who lives happily with his parents and brother in a tin shit house near Narayanganj. His family is very poor. His father is the only earning member of his family who works as a hawker to earn a modest income. Mohammad is a very charming, energetic and a dreamy young man. Despite the hardships Mohammad is determined to work in a bank. Mohammad studies in Higher Secondary School. He loves to play football very much. 6 month ago during playing a football game he got injured and his left anterior cruciate ligament has completely torn. For the last 6 month his physical health and quality of life got hampered. Mohammad needs a surgery as soon as possible. In a tertiary hospital the line for such operations was a year long and the costs were not low. Dr.Munna got to know about Mohammed's situation and invited a rare specialist who could do this operation correctly. But the cost is still unbearable for Mohammad's family. Mohammad is negging Helpster Heroes to help him pay for his surgery.
