Many parents inadvertently find a hard bag next to the baby’s penis when the baby cries and cries more when touched. Some mothers and fathers think that if the baby grows up, the hernia will not be cured, but this is not entirely true and may delay the treatment of the baby, and in serious cases, intestinal necrosis may occur and cause serious consequences. Therefore, it is important for your baby to go to a regular hospital for timely treatment of a hernia. Generally speaking, if a baby has a hernia before the age of 1, it is possible for it to heal itself. All you have to pay attention to is to avoid your baby’s violent crying, once you find that your baby can’t go back next to the penis, it is very likely that your baby’s small intestine is stuck, at this time you have to go to the hospital immediately to find a specialist to reset the bag, if it is late, it may lead to intestinal necrosis, so you can’t be sloppy. If your baby’s hernia does not heal after one year of age, unfortunately, your baby will have to undergo surgery to cure it. The accepted surgical procedure for a pediatric hernia is a high ligation of the hernia sac. Nowadays, more and more babies are being treated with a minimally invasive laparoscopic surgical approach. Generally speaking, the higher the hernia sac is ligated, the better the result. The minimally invasive approach ligates far more than open surgery, so the results are best. Due to the magnification of laparoscopy, the anatomy of the spermatic cord and vas deferens in the inguinal region is clearer, which greatly reduces the possibility of intraoperative injury and makes the surgery safer. For babies with both sides of the hernia, a single operation can solve both sides at the same time and without additional incisions, leaving only two small scars of half a centimeter on the abdominal wall after the operation, with very good cosmetic results. Due to the small trauma, the baby basically has no obvious pain after surgery and can resume eating in 4-6 hours. The probability of incisional infection and scrotal swelling after surgery is almost zero, which is significantly lower than that of open surgery. Therefore, if your baby has a hernia, don’t worry, laparoscopic minimally invasive surgery will be your best choice.
