Abdur R., 12

Abdur Rahman, a 12-year-old boy, lives with his parents, grandmother, younger brother, and twin sisters in a financially struggling household where his father’s limited income from farming is not enough to meet daily needs, making surgery unaffordable. He is a responsible and caring child who supports his family, studies in class seven, and dreams of a better future despite hardship. Since birth, he has had swelling in his abdomen that has now worsened into a painful inguinal hernia, making it difficult for him to walk, play, or live normally. His parents are deeply worried and feel helpless as they cannot bear the cost of treatment. They sought help through Helpster Charity after learning about it from a health worker, as without timely surgery, his condition may worsen, leading to severe pain, complications, and life-threatening risks.

Abdur Rahman, a child from a very poor family, was admitted to our hospital on 04 May 2026 for surgical management of a Right Congenital Inguinal Hernia. After proper evaluation, Hernioplasty was successfully performed under General Anesthesia without any complications.With the support of Helpster Charity and RUDO Hospital, his treatment was completed successfully. After post-operative care and recovery, he was discharged in stable condition with prescribed medications and necessary advice. Alhamdulillah, the child is now recovering well.

With timely right inguinal hernioplasty, Abdur Rahman is expected to recover well as the hernia is repaired and the abdominal wall is strengthened. The surgery will relieve pain, remove the swelling, and allow him to return to normal activities like walking, playing, and attending school. With proper follow-up, he can live a healthy and active life. However, if left untreated, the hernia may become trapped or strangulated, cutting off blood supply to the intestine. This can lead to severe pain, intestinal damage, and life-threatening complications, making timely surgery essential.
