Patient's question:
Lump has been there for two or three days. Last night the child finally said they have seen a doctor who said it's a hernia and it was pushed back in. Previous treatment history and effectiveness: It has already been treated last night. What kind of help is needed: Does the hernia need surgery immediately?Doctor's answer:
According to the situation you described, the hernia is not very serious, and this condition falls within the scope of elective surgery. You can have the surgery at your convenience. However, if an emergency occurs again, such as intestinal obstruction, abdominal pain, retching, etc., it needs to be treated promptly. Pay attention to avoiding situations that may increase abdominal pressure, such as constipation, colds, coughs, etc. in children. The above is advice for the question "What could be the reason for a lump in the left upper part of the child's groin?" I hope it helps you. Wishing you good health!
