Sobia Majid Had a Successful Lateral Sphincterotomy

Sobia Majid's Story

Sobia Majid, a 32-year-old resident of Karachi, Pakistan, faced a critical health challenge that required urgent support. For eight long months, she silently endured distressing symptoms, such as bleeding during bowel movements and chronic constipation. Despite seeking medical help from local doctors, the prescribed medications only provided temporary relief. Determined to find a lasting solution, Sobia recently visited a local hospital, where a thorough examination led to a diagnosis of chronic anal fissure. The doctor recommended lateral sphincterotomy surgery as the most viable treatment option for her condition. However, Sobia’s financial circumstances presented a formidable barrier to receiving the necessary medical care.

Recognizing the urgency of her condition and the financial constraints her family faced, swift action was taken to secure the necessary funds for Sobia’s surgery. Thanks to the generosity of donors from Transparent Hands, Sobia was able to get the help she desperately needed. She was admitted to Murshid Hospital, Karachi, where the operation was successfully performed by Dr. Attaullah on January 16, 2024. After just one day, she was discharged from the hospital.

The surgery aimed to heal Sobia’s anal fissures and alleviate the pain and discomfort she had been enduring for months. The results were remarkable. Sobia’s pain, itching, and rectal bleeding were all significantly reduced, allowing her to regain her daily activities without hindrance. The surgery has not only improved her physical well-being but has also had a profound impact on her emotional and mental state. Sobia can now approach life with newfound confidence, pursuing her ambitions and enjoying the simple joys that were once overshadowed by her condition.

Sobia Majid is immensely grateful to the donors of Transparent Hands, whose generosity made her surgery possible. Their support has offered her a chance at a pain-free and healthy life. Through their kindness and generosity, the donors have not only changed Sobia’s life but have also given her hope for a brighter future.
