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.

A hernia occurs when an internal organ or tissue protrudes through a weakened area in the surrounding muscle or connective tissue wall that normally contains it. Essentially, it's an abnormal bulge.

Background
Muhammad is a 6-year-old who is an orphan he leaves with his senior brother he did not attend a school, and his dream is just to be educated to become a lecturer. Since birth, Muhammed experienced significant and worsening pain due to what was initially a reducible hernia. Now, his hernia has become irreducible, with the lump becoming firm and no longer able to be pushed back into his abdomen. In addition to this, he is experiencing vomiting and regular fevers, leading to weight loss until he is brought to Ayaji. On presentation at our hospital, he was evaluated and diagnosed with an Irreducible Hernia and requires surgery.
Medical history
At his two-week post-operative check-up, muhammad as beaming. He proudly showed me how he could now run a little without any pain. The incisions were almost invisible, and there were no signs of complications. His parents were immensely relieved and grateful.
Prognosis
Most hernias occur in the abdominal region, but they can also happen in other areas of the body.
