Question
A girl child has a slight bulge in the right inguinal area. After medical consultation, it was diagnosed as a hernia, and an appointment with Dr. Ming Yongqing has been scheduled for hernia surgery.
Answer
Pediatric hernias generally have no significant impact on health. Conservative treatment can be initially considered, with surgery around the age of 2 being the definitive cure. Other methods are not curative, and immediate surgical treatment should be sought if an incarceration occurs.
