How to deal with pediatric inguinal hernia?

Patient's question:

It's just that there are fewer children now, and they don't pay much attention to them on a daily basis. Then, because he dislikes playing around, it led to him getting pediatric hernia. Hearing him cry over there, I felt very heartbroken in the hospital. You should ask to see if there's any way to solve this.

Doctor's answer:

Generally speaking, hernias in children under two years old can heal on their own through natural growth and development. It is best to avoid intense crying or screaming by the baby, and there is no need for special treatment or surgical intervention. For children over two years old who still experience recurrent episodes of hernias, surgical treatment is necessary at this point. Currently, your child is five years old, and surgical intervention is the best treatment option for the hernia at this stage.
