The family Ayamba in WInkongo Labisi of the Talensi District in the Upper East Region is soliciting for funds from general public to help conduct a surgery on their son Ayinanga Ayamba who was born without an open anus. Apexnewsgh.com report
In medical terms, when a child is born without an opening in the rectum, it is known as an imperforate anus.
Imperforate anus, also known as anal atresia, is a congenital condition in which the opening of the anus is blocked or absent. The severity of the condition can vary, with some cases being less severe and others being more complex.
The danger associated with imperforate anus depends on the specific circumstances and the level of involvement of other nearby structures. In some cases, the condition can be life-threatening and require immediate medical attention. If there is a complete absence of an opening, it can lead to an accumulation of stool and gas in the intestines, which can cause serious complications such as intestinal obstruction and perforation.
In less severe cases, where there is a small opening but it is still not functioning properly, the child may experience difficulties with bowel movements, constipation, and other gastrointestinal issues. These can affect the child’s quality of life and lead to chronic problems if not addressed.
Fortunately, imperforate anus can often be successfully treated through surgery.
Here are a few major concerns associated with imperforate anus.
A. Bowel obstruction: Imperforate anus can cause partial or complete blockage of the lower digestive tract, leading to difficulty passing stool. This can result in distension of the abdomen, discomfort, and sometimes vomiting.
B. Infection: The absence or obstruction of the anus can increase the risk of infection in the area. Careful hygiene and prompt treatment of any signs of infection are crucial to prevent complications.
C. Abnormal bowel function: Children with imperforate anus may experience difficulties with bowel control and bowel movements. This can lead to issues like constipation, soiling, or fecal incontinence. Regular follow-up with a healthcare professional can help address these concerns.
However, our visit to the family little Ayinanga Ayamba a boy born in May 2022 indicates that the little innocent boy is passing through pain each time he wants to pass stool. The mother, a woman who is more like a single mother cried for help.
According to her, despite witnessing the son go through pains each blessed day, she is also challenged with funds to continue providing packs of pampers each day since that it is what is needed to cover her son’s stomach surgery to avoid infections.
Madam Sampoa is appealing to the general public especially the people of Talensi a gold rich community to come to their aide.
According to her, they need only Four Thousand Ghana Cedis (Ghc 4000.00) to conduct an open anus for her innocent Child.
Please, it worth saving this innocent boy’s life.
