Dealing with extreme pain from a humerus fracture can be a daunting experience, but recovery becomes possible with the right help.

Mr. Juma Saidi Kamoga, from Uganda, was suffering from excruciating pain due to a humerus fracture, which had made even simple movements unbearable.

Despite seeking local treatments, his condition showed little improvement. In search of better options, he came across Vaidam Health online and decided to reach out for help. He submitted an enquiry on our website, and a case manager reached out to him. 

The case manager had a discussion with him to understand the severity of his condition, reviewed his medical reports, and helped him plan his journey to India for treatment. 

Mr. Juma, accompanied by his wife, travelled to India, where they were warmly welcomed at the airport and taken to their accommodation, which was arranged by our team at a very reasonable price. 

His appointment was promptly scheduled with Dr. Ramkinkar Jha at the Artemis Hospital, Gurgaon, which is known for its orthopaedic expertise. Following a comprehensive evaluation, the doctor recommended two surgeries as the most suitable treatment option. 

The first surgery focused on VAC dressing or cleaning of the bones due to the heavy infection. The second surgery focused on bone grafting implants and the use of an external fixator to stabilise the elbow. 

The two surgeries were a success, and Juma felt immediate relief from the intense pain. He is now able to move his hands without any difficulty.

He has returned to his home country after two months and is now in the recovery phase, gradually regaining strength and mobility in his arm. He looks forward to his follow-up appointment in one year.

Mr. Juma expressed immense gratitude for the seamless support by us throughout his medical journey. He said, “I came to India for treatment through Vaidam Health company. I had 2 surgeries to be done and they were all successful. I came with a lot of pain but right now I am very very okay. I don’t feel any pain and in the healing process. I can recommend to any other person to use Vaidam Health to come to India for good treatment. Thank you very much Vaidam.”

We wish Mr. Juma good health and a quick recovery!
