how much does a simple surgery usually cost and will it be painful are there any side effects that could cause problems later on
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
The cost of a simple surgery can vary greatly depending on the type of surgery, the hospital or clinic, and your insurance coverage. Minimally invasive surgeries generally have lower costs and are less painful than traditional open surgeries. Post-operative discomforts and potential side effects can include pain, nausea, vomiting, and in some cases, longer-term complications like infection or nerve damage

View allI have a lipoma on the inner side of my thigh, around 4 by 5 cm in size. It doesn't hurt, and the FNAC test confirmed it's a lipoma. I've heard that thigh lipomas can sometimes turn into liposarcoma should I be worried about that? If I don't get it surgically removed, could it cause issues later? Are there any other ways to shrink it besides surgery?
Lipomas do not transform often;monitor size and consult a surgeon.If large,liposuction or excision under local anesthesia is typical.

I have an 11 mm supra umbilical hernia and need to decide between laparoscopic surgery with 2 ports and a 10-15 mm incision or open surgery. Both seem to have similar pain levels post-op. From a medical standpoint, which option would be better for me?
For an 11 mm supraumbilical hernia, laparoscopic surgery with two ports and a 10-15 mm incision is generally considered the better option from a medical standpoint. While both approaches can result in similar post-operative pain levels, laparoscopic repair typically leads to a faster recovery, a lower risk of complications, and potentially better cosmetic outcomes
