My child's doctor recommended hydrocele surgery and I'm looking for the best pediatric surgeons in Mumbai who specialize in this. Is surgery the only option or can hydrocele be treated without an operation? I'm a bit worried and want to understand more about the treatment choices.

View allI tested positive for H pylori with some duodenal erosions and also have an inguinal scrotal hernia surgery coming up can I still go ahead with the surgery or do I need to treat the infection first
It's generally recommended to treat the H. pylori infection before undergoing hernia surgery. The presence of duodenal erosions, along with H. pylori, can potentially impact the healing process after surgery and increase the risk of complications. However, the decision of whether to proceed with surgery immediately or delay it for treatment should be made in consultation with your doctor, considering the specific circumstances of your case.

My baby is one month old and has an inguinal hernia. The doctor recommended surgery but I'm worried is this a minor procedure and is it safe for such a young baby
Surgery is usually necessary to prevent complications like the hernia getting trapped (incarceration) or the blood supply being cut off (strangulation). In this process, the hernia sac is tied off to stop the hernia from protruding further. After surgery, pain management and close monitoring for any issues are crucial
