Patient's question:
Post-left inguinal hernia surgery, besides the contents, I don't know whether it was improper repositioning of the small intestine head during the surgery or if it involves normal like the vas deferens? (The left side is slightly thicker than the right; the right side is normal with a clear fibrous texture and elasticity.) Around the age of 3, he suffered a severe burn on his buttocks from hot water and cried too hard, causing the left testicle to apparently ascend above the pubic bone (the parents noticed only one testicle). Later, surgery was performed to remove the testicle, which soon resulted in the formation of a left inguinal hernia.Previous treatment and outcomes: On November 18, 2011, a left inguinal hernia tension-free repair surgery was performed at a municipal hospital.
What kind of assistance is needed: How long after the surgery is it scientifically advisable to consider family planning? Worried that the hernia might affect sperm quality, he had the surgery before getting married.
Doctor's answer:
The recurrence may be due to long-term hernia causing fibrosis of the local tissue. It should not be due to improper reduction of the small intestine. If the small intestine is not properly reduced, it would lead to local bloating, pain, and protrusion symptoms.Advice: You should go to the surgical department of the hospital for a re-examination to confirm the diagnosis. After surgery, pay attention to bed rest, avoid lifting heavy objects, prolonged sitting, and standing for long periods. For the care and health management of any disease, it is important to maintain a stable mindset, as a healthy and positive attitude is very helpful for both the treatment and prevention of illness.
