Question
Does a 7.5-year-old child need surgery for a scrotal hydrocele? Is general anesthesia necessary for the surgery?
Answer
Hello, in such cases, surgery is generally required. If the child can be controlled, regional anesthesia can also be used. Children have weaker physical resistance, so they are more prone to pediatric urological issues. For parents, do not rush; it is important to take the child to a specialized hospital for examination and treatment promptly. Also, make sure to give the child regular check-ups and treat symptoms under the doctor’s guidance.
