Patient's question:
The child is one and a half years old and has an inguinal hernia on both sides. The child is very thin and has frequently been stuck recently, unable to move. Can surgery be performed?Doctor's answer:
Generally, the inguinal hernia can be treated conservatively first, and surgical treatment can be performed around the age of 2. This is a curative method, and other methods cannot cure it. If strangulation occurs, surgical treatment should be promptly taken.
