Muhammad Usman Had a Successful Subcutaneous Mastectomy

Muhammad Usman's Story

Muhammad Usman, a 27-year-old man from Lahore, was experiencing intermittent pain and progressive enlargement of his right breast. Due to his condition, he lost his confidence and started to avoid social interactions. He went to a nearby hospital and consulted a doctor, who after a thorough examination and evaluation diagnosed him with right gynecomastia – an abnormal enlargement of the breast tissue in men. To relieve his pain and restore his dignity, the doctor recommended a right subcutaneous mastectomy. However, the surgical cost was beyond his financial means.

Usman lived in a small rented house with his six family members. He works at an old age home and his father is a daily wage laborer. Their combined monthly income was insufficient to cover house rent, utility bills, and other living expenses. This surgery was essential for Usman to restore his masculine chest contour and alleviate his physical discomfort. However, due to his financial constraints, he was unable to pay for his surgery. During this time of need, Usman contacted Transparent Hands and asked for help. After learning about his health issue, we promptly registered his case. Through our donors’ generosity, we arranged surgery for Usman at one of our panel hospitals

.

The day of hope arrived and Usman was admitted to Lahore Care Hospital on 9th September 2024. The surgery took place on the same day. Dr. Ahmed Fawad performed the procedure and removed the excess tissue in his right breast. After post-operative care and receiving medications, he was discharged in satisfactory condition on 11th September 2024.

Usman was overwhelmed with happiness and said:

“Due to my condition, I used to feel extremely embarrassed. After surgery, I feel confident now. You have boosted my self-esteem and provided me relief from my intense pain. I can’t thank you enough for your generous support. Thanks for being there!”

After the successful surgery, Usman reclaimed his lost confidence and dignity. Your contributions changed his life and improved his emotional and physical well-being.

Usman and his family are incredibly grateful to you for helping them during their time of need and making a lasting impact on their lives.
