Patient's question:
My son was diagnosed with a hernia shortly after he was born, but because he was too young, treatment could not be performed. Now that he's a bit older, when I took him for a thorough check-up, the doctor said it's best to have surgery. I'd like to understand where to get pediatric hernia treatment.Doctor's answer:
How should pediatric hernia be treated? Specific treatment measures should be chosen based on the type. If it is an inguinal hernia, clinical diagnosis can be divided into inguinal and inguinal. The treatment method, for infants under one year old, is not to undergo surgery. Instead, a cotton cord or bandage can be used to press the inguinal internal ring to prevent the weakness of the abdominal wall, which may disappear on its own. If it cannot be completely restored on its own, a herniorrhaphy or high ligation of the hernial sac may be necessary.
