Patient's question:
I am 36 years old this year. Recently, I feel unwell, sometimes dizzy during the day, and it affects my work. I can't sleep at night, and the medicine I took doesn't seem to work well. How is it that children get hernias?Doctor's answer:
Hello, a hernia is caused by a partial weakness in the abdominal wall, leading to the protrusion of the intestinal tube into it, and it is also related to chronic cough. Generally, surgical treatment is required, while medication is more effective. Children have weaker immune systems, so they are more prone to pediatric general surgery issues. For parents, it is important not to panic and should promptly take their children to a professional hospital for examination and treatment. Additionally, regular check-ups should be conducted for the child, and medications should be used under the guidance of a doctor.
