I have a double hernia on both sides and I'm really worried about which surgery option open or laparoscopic would give me a permanent fix with no chance of it coming back. Is there one that offers a lifetime guarantee?

My 3-year-old son was diagnosed with mild hydrocele with no hernia. The pediatrician referred us to a surgeon, and we have an appointment today. I wanted to know if surgery is the only option or if there are medications available too. Also, is it safe to wait a year or two until he's older for the surgery?

Usually 3 years is too late for conservative management. So most likely a survey will be required . However no medication are available to treat this condition
