Patient Question:Disease:Hernia Description:Around November 2014, I had a walnut sized packet in the right side of my groin, and after visiting the local hospital, the doctor diagnosed a hernia and recommended that we have surgery. After the diagnosis of hernia in a different hospital, the doctor suggested surgery, Hope to provide help:Is it a hernia, will it be okay? Is it possible to have surgery? The hernia that appears after the age of 1 is very unlikely to heal on its own and should be treated surgically. Before the surgery, it is necessary to keep the bowels open and not to have coughing and shortness of breath. If the hernia is not treated, there is a risk of impaction with serious consequences. The best treatment for pediatric hernia is minimally invasive. My homemade hernia needle has been applied for 5-6 years to cure hundreds of pediatric cases with fast recovery, low recurrence rate and no scarring on the abdominal wall.
