Patient's question:
Recently, it has been discovered that children have a prominent lump in the groin area, which can be felt with the hand when lying down. The doctor has diagnosed the need for surgery. 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, enhance 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. During the surgery, general anesthesia will not cause crying. After the anesthesia recovery post-surgery, it is necessary to avoid frequent crying and stimulation of the child.
