Pinit is a 24-year-old soldier from Cambodia. He lives with his parents, his grandparents, and two younger brothers in Kampong Speu province. When not working, he likes to play football and go fishing.
Pinit fractured his left clavicle a little over a year ago when playing football with his friends. He had an open reduction internal fixation at a government hospital in Pnom Penh. His fracture has healed, but he still feels a chronic ache in his shoulder and neck. He is not able to perform some of the required activities for soldiers.
Fortunately, surgeons at our medical partner, Children’s Surgical Centre, can help. On December 13th, Pinit will undergo a hardware removal procedure, which will cost $304. The chronic ache will disappear along with his risk of infection and he can return to full activity in his day-to-day life.
Pinit shared: “I would like to get back to my full strength, and I hope taking out the metal will help me to get strong again.”

Pinit underwent fracture surgery to enable him to live a fully active life.
Pinit had a successful surgical procedure to remove the hardware from his clavicle fracture. He will undergo a short period of antibiotics to reduce the chance of infection, and start physiotherapy to regain strength in his shoulder. Recovery will take approximately six weeks. He hopes to be active as a soldier again and looks forward to even casting his fishing pole soon.
Pinit said: “I feel very comfortable being treated at CSC. The surgeons checked me every day and nursing care was good. I am happy with the result after surgery, now my fracture will be painless.”
