Why is treatment done earlier than admission?
Sometimes, when a case is urgent and vital, hospitals may proceed with delivering medical care right away to save a life, even before the finalization of admission procedures. Usually, when this happens, hospitals put the bill on our credit until the funds are transferred to their accounts.
That's why the chronology can sometimes be in disorder.

Background
Bishara is a happy 12-year-old boy from a poor family. He loves swimming and dancing and dreams of becoming an Islamic scholar. Around 3 years ago, he was found to have kidney stones and a bladder issue in another hospital, but his family couldn't afford the surgery. He tried taking stone-breaking tablets for two months, but they didn't work. Tests showed that he has larger stones in his right kidney and bladder, causing him occasional stomach, urination, and lower back pain. Surgery is needed to remove them.
Medical history
Bishara is a happy 12-year-old boy from a poor family. He loves swimming and dancing and dreams of becoming an Islamic scholar. Around 3 years ago, he was found to have kidney stones and a bladder issue in another hospital, but his family couldn't afford the surgery. He tried taking stone-breaking tablets for two months, but they didn't work. Tests showed that he has larger stones in his right kidney and bladder, causing him occasional stomach, urination, and lower back pain. Surgery is needed to remove them. Had successful surgery on 20th February and was discharged on 24th February, 2024. He is now doing well as he resumed back to his regular routines.
Outcome
Larger stones might require more extensive treatment like using sound waves to break up the stone (lithotripsy), surgery to remove very large stones, or using a scope passed through the bladder to remove smaller stones.
