Child Patients
The hernia repair for children can range from Php 40,000 to Php 80,000 depending on the hospital. I noticed the price difference may be because of the complexities involved.
Also called luslos in the Philippines, the only way to treat the condition is through hernioplasty. You cannot expect it to go away on its own because it is a physical defect. Hernioplasty or herniorrhaphy is the only way.
