Patient's question:
My child has been experiencing a large lump in the lower abdomen whenever they cry recently, and it's particularly hard. I took them to the hospital, and the attending doctor said it's hydrocele. Additionally, my child's testicles are of uneven sizes. The attending doctor said it doesn't need to be addressed. Could you please tell me what causes hydrocele in babies?Doctor's answer:
Hello, neonatal hernia is caused by congenital developmental abnormalities because the high embryonic period of the stomach is the abdominal sunset period. As the gestational age of the fetus in the stomach increases, it gradually descends from the abdomen to the ovary. Then the tube will slowly close, making it easy to form a hernia without blocking. This is the cause of neonatal hernia, which requires the use of a hernia lamp to promote postnatal development and can also alleviate the symptoms of hernia.
