Patient's question:
When I was a child, during the inguinal hernia surgery, one of my testicles was the size of a grain of rice. After the surgery, it never grew. Now that I've entered puberty, I'm worried about its impact on future fertility. Should I have the testicle that hasn't grown removed?Doctor's answer:
Hello, regarding the surgery for hernia, you don't need to worry about postoperative complications. This surgery is quite simple. In the field of abdominal surgery, it is the second most common simple procedure after appendectomy. As long as you avoid infection after the surgery, it has no impact on your future life or health, so there's no need to worry!
