Patient's question:
The child of my cousin noticed inguinal hernia when he started primary school. Sometimes the child would have episodes of it during intense exercise or when resting poorly. Every time he went to the hospital for follow-up, the doctor recommended surgery. How is inguinal hernia treated, and will there be rejection with surgery?Doctor's answer:
For recurrent inguinal hernias in the groin area, it is also necessary to pay attention to avoiding strenuous exercise, especially within the first 6 months after surgery, which is the peak period for recurrence. Appropriate consideration can be given to tension-free surgery. In daily life, it is also necessary to pay attention to long-term constipation, as well as acute and chronic coughs, and other causes should be effectively addressed. It is recommended to provide proper nursing training to prevent the recurrence of various situations that can increase intra-abdominal pressure.
