What is the reason for the crying after infant intussusception surgery?

Patient's question:

After infant intussusception surgery, they still love to cry out.

Doctor's answer:

Hello; Intussusception is a serious disease, and enema is a treatment method. Many recover after enema, but some do not, so it is necessary to observe the condition after enema. If the baby keeps crying and cannot be comforted with general methods, there might be other issues. Due to intussusception, the intestinal mucosa is somewhat damaged, and even after recovery, discomfort may still persist, or it may reoccur. In such cases, it is recommended to consult with a higher-level hospital. If it is simply adhesion without obstruction, special treatment is not necessary.
