Last spring, David grew sharply, and his family noticed that he began to limp. The boy was diagnosed with a rare disease of the hip joint - osteochondropathy. Normally, the head of the femur has a round shape, but with David it is deformed and already resembles half an apple. David started limping because the defect began to hurt.
When David stops growing, he will have surgery to replace the damaged joint. Until then, David's main goal is to save the joint and not let the damage go further into the bone. To do this, if he walks, he only walks with a cane, trying not to put much load on his right leg. But he lies more: the doctor recommended that he should spend 6-8 hours a day in a supine position. David takes his disease seriously and follows the recommendations.
But David also has to lie correctly - on an orthopedic bed, mattress and pillow. The family didn't know about their son's illness, David slept on a simple bed, and perhaps the wrong body positioning is the reason that David already has stage 3 of the disease - as an elderly person with the same diagnosis.
To prevent the disease from progressing, David urgently needs to arrange an orthopedic bed. Help David so that he can walk normally and live a full life in the future!
Огромное спасибо за помощь Давиду!
Дай Аллах скорейшего выздоровления 🙏🏾
Дай Бог здоровья
Давида ждут осложнения, если не будет условий для правильного положения тела. Помогите мальчику их избежать!
