Give for Abdul Waheed’s Seton Replacement

Abdul Waheed's Story

In the depths of Abdul Waheed’s pain, an insidious infection took root, gradually transforming into a relentless fistula that has haunted him for over a year. The weight of his suffering intensified as the infection spread to his delicate perianal area, causing excruciating discomfort and distress. After undergoing a thorough evaluation, Abdul’s doctor recommended a surgical intervention: the delicate procedure of Fistulectomy with Seton Placement. Though one hurdle has been overcome, Abdul now faces another daunting step on his healing journey: Seton’s replacement. Each day, as blood and pus continue to discharge from his perianal region, it serves as a painful reminder of his health condition

Running a small hosiery stall, Abdul Waheed is the sole breadwinner for his family, earning a modest 30,000 rupees a month. This income barely meets the basic needs of his family, including 5,000 PKR for utilities and another 5,000 PKR for his children’s schooling. Caught between his financial constraints and the cost of the necessary medical treatment, he feels overwhelmed and helpless.

Abdul Waheed makes a heartfelt request:

Abdul Waheed's Story

Abdul Waheed, a 39-year-old resident of Lahore, found himself in a dire medical situation when he began experiencing persistent blood and pus discharge from his perianal region for the past year. So, the doctor advised him to undergo fistula surgery. His first surgery, with the support of Transparent Hands, was performed by Dr. Ahmed Fawad on February 15, 2024. The procedure excised the fistula and placed a Seton. After allowing the closure of the wound and proper healing. Abdul Waheed's doctor recommended another surgical intervention in the form of seton replacement. This procedure would address the underlying issue and provide the necessary treatment.

Once again, his post-operative stay was brief, with him being discharged from the hospital the very next day.
