Sunil, an 18-year-old boy, visited the medical camp organized at Vanbandhu Arogya Dham during December 15-20, 2016. He lives in a small remote village of Umarkui in Vansda province of Valsad District, about 56 kilometers, from our project site in Ahwa, Dang. Sunil and a social worker came looking for some help as the boy had not been able to open his mouth very much. He fell from a tree when he was 6 years old and hit his chin pretty hard.
Upon clinical examination, Sunil presented with Trismus, inability to open the mouth, with only a maximum mouth opening of 4mm and an underdeveloped chin. Necessary information about Sunil’s condition was provided to the social worker by Dr. Ashok Patel and the need for corrective surgery was stressed.
