Patient's question:
Bump protrusion, spirits are okay, good appetite, large appetite, deep sleep is not stable, not good absorption, often talking nonsense, spitting up, normal defecation, once a day, normal weight, just noticed the baby crying and crying, previous treatment and effect: Taking Chinese medicine, what kind of help is needed: What is good...Doctor's answer:
It is due to the underdeveloped physical growth of children, the frail constitution of the elderly, insufficient middle Qi, the invasion of cold Qi, damp Qi, turbid Qi, and anger, which weakens the body and leads to the obstruction and stagnation of Qi and blood circulation. This results in negative pressure in the abdominal cavity, reducing abdominal pressure and forcing the free abdominal organs to move.Recommendations:
1. For infants and young children with reducible inguinal hernia, consider using a hernia belt for treatment. If the condition is not too severe, this method allows approximately 95% of infants to achieve spontaneous healing.
2. For the majority of patients, surgical treatment should be considered. However, using a hernia belt promptly before understanding surgical treatment is also very beneficial. First, it can prevent the condition from worsening further; second, it can effectively prevent the recurrence of acute complications such as incarcerated hernia and intestinal obstruction.
Surgical treatment for pediatric hernia is relatively challenging because the organs and tissues of children are very delicate. Structures such as the vas deferens and spermatic artery are easily damaged during surgery. Hernia surgery may affect the patient's future fertility and lead to infertility.
