Patient's question:
The child has a hernia and has been troubled recently. The lower abdomen is also swollen. The whole family is very worried about the child's condition. Please ask: How should hernia patients be treated to get better?Doctor's answer:
Hernia refers to a small part of the human body or organ returning to its original position, entering another area through gaps, scars, or weak points in the body. It is recommended that if the condition of pediatric hernia is not severe, it can be temporarily treated with elastic bandages to deflate and reposition. Your child is 2 years old, so surgical treatment can be considered. During this period, it is important to prevent the child from exerting force while coughing, defecating, or engaging in other activities that may increase intra-abdominal pressure. In addition to timely treatment for hernia, patients should maintain a positive attitude in facing the disease. Only in this way can the patient's immunity and the ability to fight the disease be reduced. At the same time, it is important to pay attention to dietary care and maintain a balanced nutrition, ensuring that the body can digest nutrients in a timely manner. It is believed that this will definitely drive the hernia away.
