Patient's question:
Recently, it has been found that children have a prominent lump in the groin area, which can be felt with the hand when lying down. The doctor has diagnosed that surgery is needed. Do children cry after inguinal hernia surgery?Doctor's answer:
The child's inguinal lump is very prominent. Considering the quality of the inguinal hernia, it is recommended to follow a light and regular diet, strengthen nutrition, and avoid frequent crying and stimulation. The child can undergo examination at a general surgery department in a local pediatric hospital. The hernia should be treated through elective surgery. General anesthesia during surgery will not cause crying. After the anesthesia recovery post-surgery, it is necessary to avoid frequent crying and stimulation of the child.
