Question

I recently found out I have an inguinal hernia and my doctor recommended surgery. Are there other treatment options like Ayurveda or homeopathy that could work? I'm also worried about how this might affect my sexual life since I'm not married yet. What could happen if I don't get it treated now will it cause more problems later?

Craniotomy means opening the skull to remove a clot or relieve pressure; recovery depends on damage extent but early surgery improves outcomes.

My 18-month-old daughter has had an umbilical granuloma since birth. We tried the common salt treatment but it didn't work. Her belly button gets red sometimes, stays moist, and has mucus buildup. She scratches it a lot, making it worse. Doctors are suggesting surgery now, but I'm really worried are there any other treatment options we can try first?
