Suleiman B., 19

Suleiman is a polite, hardworking, and resilient young man. He enjoys playing football, spending time with friends, and helping his family. He dreams of completing his education, building a successful future, and contributing positively to his community. Five days ago, Suleiman developed sudden right-sided flank pain with painful and frequent urination. Upon presentation at our hospital, he was evaluated and tests revealed blood in his urine and a kidney stone in the right renal pelvis. He was diagnosed with Right Kidney Stone. He is currently stable and awaiting surgical removal of the stone.

Suleiman Baffa, a 19-year-old young man, was admitted on 16/01/2026 with a right kidney stone and underwent a successful nephrolithotomy (surgical removal of the kidney stone). He received appropriate postoperative care, pain management, and close medical monitoring. After five days in the hospital, Suleiman recovered well. His symptoms resolved, his kidney function improved, and he was discharged home in good condition, able to resume his normal daily activities. Thanks to Helpter Charity for sponsoring the treatment of Suleiman Baffa.

Suleiman is suffering from Kidney stone which in children causes intense pain (back, side, groin), nausea, vomiting, and blood in the urine, disrupting daily life; if untreated, they can lead to severe infections, blocked urine flow, and long-term kidney damage. Removal of the kidney stone is the best treatment option at this point due to the size of the stone, which is too large to pass through the urethra. The surgery is expected to have a good prognosis, as Hafsat does not have any underlying conditions that could interfere with the procedure.
