Patient's question:
The child has been crying for more than seven days now and is very fussy. Every time they cry, their testicles swell, one being larger than the other. There is a hard lump in the child's abdomen, which gets bigger after crying. Experts, what medicine should the infant with intestinal hernia take?Doctor's answer:
Considering the condition of hernia, we can perform examinations such as color Doppler ultrasound. For hernia, children under the age of one can be considered for temporary observation and follow-up, as there is a possibility of self-healing. Drug control is not effective, and medication is not necessary. It is usually avoided to avoid factors that increase intra-abdominal pressure, such as difficulty defecating, chronic cough, children over one year old, and patients without relief. Surgical treatment is performed.
