A 50-day-old infant has a hernia, what should be done?

Patient's question:

A few days ago, I noticed bumps on the inside of my thigh. When I went to the hospital, the doctor said it was a hernia. He advised me to try to keep the child from crying as much as possible. However, since the child is so young, any strain can cause them to develop bumps.

Doctor's answer:

Hello, the testicles of a baby who has been around for half a month show obvious size differences. This situation should be considered due to the possibility of hydrocele or hernia. It is recommended to undergo further scrotal ultrasound examination to determine if there are any abnormalities, and further tests can be conducted if necessary.
