I've been dealing with some issues down there and I'm really worried. There's a small pimple on the tip of my vagina that's super annoying and sometimes it even hurts. Plus, I've been experiencing a lot of dryness, irritation, and this extra white discharge. I'm not sure what's going on, but I could really use some advice on what to do. Any thoughts?
The cost of a hernia operation at Hinduja Hospital in Mumbai can range around 1 lac for laparoscopic hernioplasty . Other reputed hospitals in Mumbai may have similar pricing. As for the admission duration, patients typically stay in the hospital for 1-2 days after a laparoscopic hernia surgery. However, this may vary depending on individual cases and the doctor's advice. It's best to consult with a doctor or the hospital directly for a more accurate estimate of costs and admission duration.
