Patient's question:
Both sides of the labia majora have small bumps, which were discovered in May this year. I believe they were caused by intense exercise after my child started school. Treatment history and effectiveness: I don't want surgery and have been wearing a hernia belt. What kind of help do I need: I don't want surgery and have been wearing a hernia belt, but it's not improving. What should I do? Should I have surgery or continue wearing the hernia belt?Doctor's answer:
Disease speculation: If a hernia does not heal on its own after the age of one, surgical treatment is generally required. Using a hernia belt for treatment is not scientific and has little effect.Advice: If the lump persists for a long time, surgical treatment is better. This is because the contents of the hernia sac in girls can include ovaries, and if it becomes incarcerated again, it may lead to conditions such as ovarian abscess, which can result in infertility. Other treatment methods are generally ineffective. It is recommended to undergo surgical treatment.
