Sakib Hossain S., 12

Sakib Hossain Siam is a 12-year-old madrasa student who enjoys reading and playing sports and dreams of becoming an educated scholar to support his family. He has been suffering from recurrent severe sore throat and frequent nosebleeds for nearly two years, and his condition has increasingly affected his daily life and studies. His father, Zahid Hasan, is the sole earning member of the five-member family and earns only approximately USD 66 per month as a daily laborer, making it difficult to meet basic household needs and afford medical treatment. Sakib was diagnosed with Adenotonsillitis with Bilateral Hypertrophied Inferior Turbinates and epistaxis, and without appropriate treatment, his recurrent symptoms may continue and cause further health and functional problems. The family learned about Helpster Charity through a medical outreach camp organized by Helpster Charity in Geneva Camp, giving them hope of receiving the care Sakib needs.

With Helpster’s support, Sakib Hossain Siam was admitted to Al-Manar Hospital on July 18, 2026, for severe recurrent adenotonsillitis and epistaxis. Doctors initially stabilized his condition with medical care before Dr. Md. Ibrahim Khalil Ullah successfully performed a tonsillectomy and turbinoplasty on July 19, 2026, to clear his obstructed airway and stop the nasal bleeding. After a smooth post-operative period, Sakib spent a total of three days in the hospital before being discharged on July 20, 2026. He went home with a structured medication plan including oral antibiotics, antacids, pain relievers, antihistamines, nasal sprays, and a mouthwash to complete his healing. The treatment was a complete success, leaving Sakib free from painful infections and frequent nosebleeds so he can breathe comfortably and focus on his studies once again.

Adenotonsillectomy with cauterization of the bleeding vessels and turbinoplasty is expected to relieve the enlarged tonsil and adenoid obstruction, improve nasal breathing, and reduce recurrent throat infections and nosebleeds. With successful treatment and appropriate follow-up, Sakib is expected to experience better breathing, sleep, comfort, and participation in school and daily activities. If left untreated, persistent obstruction and recurrent inflammation may continue to cause significant throat and nasal symptoms, while recurrent epistaxis may lead to repeated blood loss and further complications.
