Patient's question:
My little baby was taken to a hospital for examination because there was a lump above his scrotum before. The expert said he had hydrocele. I heard that hydrocele comes in more than one type. Could you please tell me which hospital is more reputable for treating hydrocele in children?Doctor's answer:
Hernia. It refers to the displacement of internal organs or tissues from their normal anatomical position. This occurs through congenital or acquired weaknesses, defects, or openings into another area. The main symptoms are pain and a lump in the hernia area. Ultrasound can provide a definitive diagnosis. If not treated promptly, hernias may gradually increase in number, symptoms may worsen, and even strangulation or obstruction may threaten the patient's life. Therefore, surgical treatment should be performed as soon as possible. Pediatric surgery in hospitals of grade two or above can treat this condition.
