Patient's question:
There is a swelling in the groin area, not coming back to the buttocks, constipation for more than a year. Treatment history and effectiveness: No treatment, what kind of help is needed: What is the condition?Doctor's answer:
From the symptoms you described, it should be an inguinal hernia. Congenital inguinal hernia: related to embryonic growth and development. During the human embryonic period, the testis gradually ascends from the lateral lumbar region, while pushing a part of the peritoneum, transversalis fascia, and abdominal muscles through the inguinal canal to move downward, forming the scrotum. During the process of testicular ascent, the peritoneum forms a peritoneal processus vaginalis. When the testicular ascent is completed smoothly, the peritoneal processus vaginalis naturally shrinks and closes. If the peritoneal processus vaginalis does not close properly or incompletely, it may form the sac of a congenital inguinal hernia. An inguinal hernia cannot heal on its own and may become incarcerated or strangulated, so surgical treatment should be performed!
