Patient's question:
My dear son is 9 years old this year. The other day, it was found that my dear son has a hiatal hernia and needs surgery. But I am worried that the surgical scar will be too large and not very attractive. I am slightly hesitant and would like to consult about the size of the wound for a minimally invasive hiatal hernia surgery?Doctor's answer:
Congenital malformation of the small intestine, with the appearance of a lump that disappears when lying on your back, may cause pain in some cases. Avoid colds, fatigue, and exhaustion, minimize activity, apply heat, eat more vegetables and fruits, and maintain regular bowel movements. There are two types of surgery: minimally invasive surgery and conventional surgery. The incision is usually about 5 centimeters for minimally invasive surgery. Consult at a public hospital, get checked, and choose the appropriate surgery. Drink plenty of water, get plenty of rest, and eat less spicy, irritating, and greasy foods.
