Patient's question:
What preparations are needed before a hernia surgery? What causes this condition? How can this disease be prevented? First, what are the early signs of this disease? Besides the preparations for a hernia surgery, what else is needed? Are there any preventive measures in daily life? I look forward to an explanation.Doctor's answer:
Hernia surgery is a routine small surgical procedure. If there is no recurrence of a kind of difficulty, before the surgery, you should go to the hospital on an empty stomach for some auxiliary tests such as blood routine, urine routine, coagulation 4 items, liver function, electrocardiogram, etc. At the same time, local skin preparation should be performed. This surgery generally does not require special reservation. You should exercise more in daily life, enhance nutrition, quit smoking and drinking, and keep bowel movements unobstructed to prevent excessive abdominal pressure.
