How much should a hernia surgery cost to be considered reasonable?

Patient's question:

My husband recently developed a hernia, and the doctor recommended treating it through surgery. I'd like to understand how much it costs to have a hernia surgery? Hello, is there no other treatment besides surgery? If it's surgery, what precautions and preparations are needed?

Doctor's answer:

Hydrocele is one of the most common diseases in pediatric surgery and hernia surgery, mainly including congenital inguinal hernia and umbilical hernia. Inguinal hernia in children over one year old cannot heal on its own. If the umbilical hernia patient is over 4 years old or the umbilical ring diameter is 2~3 cm or more, surgical treatment should be considered. Currently, more minimally invasive treatments have been adopted, and the fees should be charged according to the pricing level of the local hospital.
