Patient's question:
Zai Zai had surgery for a left inguinal hernia when he was over one year old. It recurred later. Now he is five and a half years old, and he had a second surgery recently. It has been less than a month since then. Later, it was found that the left testicle was beside the penis and not in the scrotum, one higher than the other.Doctor's answer:
