How long does it take to recover after surgery if a child is born with an extra finger?

Patient's question:

A child was born with an extra finger, connected by a thin blood vessel. If surgery is required to remove it, how much will it cost approximately? Should they be hospitalized? How long will it take to fully recover and complete the recovery process?

Doctor's answer:

Based on the situation you described and the observation, it is recommended to consider surgical removal. There should not be too much of a problem. Your mother should have medical insurance or rural cooperative medical insurance. This type of surgery can be pre-paid. In a secondary Grade A hospital, the surgical treatment cost for general surgery should be around 1,000 yuan. Since the child is so young, to prevent the recurrence of work-related infections, it is best to complete hospital admission procedures. The above is advice on this issue. I hope it helps you. Wishing you good health!
