How to handle pediatric inguinal hernia by yourself?

Patient's question:

The child is one and a half years old this year. Recently, the child's behavior has been very abnormal, always complaining of not knowing where it hurts. After checking at the hospital, it was found to be pediatric hernia. The child is really suffering. How can pediatric hernia be treated on its own?

Doctor's answer:

Hello, I'm glad to answer your question: For the current condition of your child, it is recommended to use a hernia belt. Most children will naturally recover from hernia around the age of 3, and surgery will not be necessary. However, some patients may need to undergo surgery for hernia repair at the hospital. In terms of your child's diet, there is nothing particularly to pay attention to. The main thing is to prevent the child from crying frequently, which can lead to increased abdominal pressure.
