Patient's question:
Recently, because of moving heavy objects, I developed a lump in my lower abdomen that couldn't be pushed back in. When I went to the hospital for a thorough examination, the doctor said I have an inguinal hernia and that it's a relatively simple procedure to repair it with a hernia mesh. I want to ask if this hernia mesh surgery is reliable?Doctor's answer:
Using a patch in surgery is quite reliable. Generally, it has a significant effect on preventing the recurrence of hernia after surgery. Nowadays, surgeries are relatively simple and are usually successfully completed under laparoscopy. The procedure is quick, and recovery is fast afterward, so the surgery is still very necessary. Moreover, if Sister San wants to be completely cured, the main method is through surgery.
