Patient's question:
My baby has been complaining of stomach pain for the past two days. At first, we thought it was something they ate or a muscle cramp, but it has lasted for several days now, and they have also developed a fever. After a thorough examination at the hospital, we found that it is a case of pediatric hernia. Now, we want to consider minimally invasive surgery to treat it. Could you please tell me what the process of a minimally invasive hernia surgery for children is?Doctor's answer:
Because the child is relatively young, the series of risk factors that may reappear during the inguinal hernia surgery primarily determine the anesthesia risk factors. It is recommended to seek follow-up treatment at a formal public hospital, including secondary or higher-level public hospitals or local tertiary comprehensive hospitals. The main surgical procedure is very simple, but it requires attention, mainly to carefully observe the possibility of anesthesia complications. Adjust physical and mental health, maintain personal hygiene, and avoid bacterial invasion due to weakened immunity.
