How to deal with the worsening pain of a hernia

Patient's question:

Male, 24 months. Condition Description: It started from the first birthday. The hernia is not very severe. But sometimes it hurts. It has grown. It is obvious when crying. Otherwise, it is okay. What should be done?

Doctor's answer:

This is typical small intestinal movement. It is more noticeable during coughing, crying, and defecation. I am now 2 years old. I will not recover. It is recommended that you go to the hospital for surgical examination and treatment. The child is already 2 years old. Moreover, the hernia has become severe. It requires surgical treatment. Pay attention to avoiding prolonged crying of the child in the near future. If the protruding lump cannot be retracted and is accompanied by pain, it may be an incarcerated hernia. It is necessary to go to the hospital for prompt treatment.
