Patient's question:

A doll has been here for a month and a few days, but its testicles are not the same size. Sometimes when it cries, they are a bit hard. Is it hydrocele? People say that hydrocele in infants can heal on its own. Is that true? How long does it take to heal? This hasn't been treated yet. What is hydrocele in a baby?

Doctor's answer:

Common small intestine Qi-regulating Chinese patent medicines include Xiao Chang Wan, Ju He Wan, and Bu Zhong Yi Qi Wan. Alternatively, mix cinnamon vinegar and wrap it with gauze around the umbilical cord. Small intestine balloon treatment should consider surgical intervention when necessary. If the condition is severe, surgical treatment should be considered. However, using a hernia ring promptly before undergoing surgical treatment is also very helpful. First, it can prevent the condition from worsening. Second, it can effectively prevent urgent complications such as hernia strangulation and obstruction from occurring.
