Rottana is a 24-year-old vendor from Cambodia. He likes to watch TV, listen to music, and play badminton with his co-workers in his free time.
Back in April, Rottana fractured his forearm in a motorbike accident. He visited a traditional healer for treatment, but his symptoms did not improve. Rottana continues to experience difficulty using his arm and is constantly in pain.
Rottana traveled two hours to receive treatment from our medical partner, Children’s Surgical Centre (CSC). His bone fracture repair procedure is scheduled to take place on May 25, and the $411 will cover all surgery costs.

Rottana underwent a bone fracture repair.
Rottana’s treatment for his left arm went well. Following the procedure, he was instructed to keep his arm elevated to prevent swelling. He followed gentle physiotherapy exercises at CSC for two weeks before being discharged. Once his wounds were healed, doctors applied a cast to be used for two weeks. Rottana returned to CSC for a 2-week follow-up appointment. His cast and sutures were removed, and another cast was applied to be used for four more weeks. Rottana’s hand functions better than before. He is scheduled for an appointment at CSC to remove the cast, take an X-ray, and increase physiotherapy if the X-ray looks good.
Rottana says, “I am happy with the results. My wounds are healed and I can use my arm better. Thanks to CSC for helping me.”
