Patient's question:
My baby is now three months old. The day before yesterday, I noticed she was coughing, and now it has developed into bronchopneumonia. She often has a fever at night, and during the day, her temperature is around 37.5 degrees Celsius. She is currently hospitalized for treatment. The day before yesterday, I noticed that one side of her scrotum was enlarged while the other side was normal, and it felt soft. I don't know what the situation is. She was born normally, but this enlargement was only noticed in the last two days. Does this have anything to do with her illness? I don't know what else might be wrong. Please help me understand this, doctors!Doctor's answer:
This situation with your baby should be checked to see if it's a hernia or hydrocele. This is not related to cough or bronchopneumonia. It is recommended that you take good care of your baby, keep the room from being too dry, give your baby water appropriately, and take medication on time. Regarding the situation you mentioned, it should be examined by a doctor in the surgical department to determine if it's a hernia or hydrocele. If it's not obvious, there is no need to worry too much. The above advice is for the question "My baby is now three months old." I hope it helps you. Wishing you good health!
