Patient's question:
My daughter at home is 3 years old, and now she has developed a hernia. I want to take her to a hospital to see a doctor, but I don't know which department to go to. So, I'd like to know which department to visit for a female hernia?Doctor's answer:
Pediatric inguinal hernia consultation in general surgery. Most inguinal hernias in a three-year-old child cannot heal on their own. Surgical treatment should be considered. Minimally invasive surgery, such as laparoscopic surgery, can now be performed. You can consult. Before surgery, it is important to strengthen the child's constitution. Eat more protein-rich foods and fresh fruits and vegetables, get more sun exposure to enhance the body's immunity, and prevent colds. After surgery, keep the wound clean and dry, pay attention to rest, and avoid the risk of wound dehiscence.
