Patient's question:
My daughter is two and a half months old. She just had a hernia surgery, and it has been 12 days. The incision has healed very well. Today, she touched the incision with her hand and found a hard lump inside. She is quite worried. Is this normal?Doctor's answer:
The situation you mentioned is that the child has developed a lump and symptoms such as pain at the wound site again after surgery. If accompanied by redness and tenderness, it may be a local reaction to suture removal. However, it cannot be confirmed at this time. I suggest taking the child to the hospital for a check-up, and if necessary, seek anti-infection treatment. I hope my explanation can help you.In addition to timely treatment for the condition, friends with the condition should always maintain a positive attitude when facing the disease. Only in this way can they reduce their immunity and strengthen their belief in fighting the disease. At the same time, they should pay close attention to their dietary care and monitor changes in their symptoms, believing that this will surely drive the condition away.
