Patient's question:
What will the baby child feel after the orchiopexy surgery? Will the baby child feel pain? If there is pain, is there a way to relieve it? Can the baby child eat supplementary food as usual after the surgery? Will urination be affected? Can it be normal? Will the baby child feel pain after the pediatric orchiopexy surgery?Doctor's answer:
After the surgery for undescended testicles, pain may occur due to anesthesia metabolism during the operation. Pain medication may be used to alleviate the symptoms. The diet should still be light and easy to digest. It can be consumed before supplementing food, but new supplements should not be added, as this may cause gastrointestinal reactions. Currently, some patients have not found the testicles in imaging tests, which may be due to abdominal undescended testicles or unilateral testicular absence. For these patients, laparoscopic examination and surgical treatment should be performed in a timely manner. The incidence of abdominal undescended testicles is low, but the incidence of testicular cancer in adults is high. Surgery should be performed as early as possible. In cases of testicular absence, the atrophic testicles and residual tissue at the end of the spermatic cord should also be removed to prevent adult cancer.
