Patient's question:
Yesterday, my colleague told me about inguinal hernia. I want to consult a doctor about it. What is an inguinal hernia? How is this disease treated?Doctor's answer:
An inguinal hernia can cause a recurrence of a lump in the groin area. It is advisable to go to the hospital for an ultrasound examination to confirm the diagnosis and consult a doctor for timely treatment. In mild cases, manual reduction may be possible. In severe cases, surgical treatment is necessary to prevent complications such as strangulation or abscess formation.During daily life, pay attention to rest, avoid staying up late, intense exercise, and consuming spicy or irritating foods. It is recommended to eat more fruits and vegetables, engage in appropriate exercise, and maintain physical and mental well-being. Keep personal hygiene to avoid bacterial invasion due to weakened immunity.
