Patient's question:
The child often cries. After a careful examination, the doctor said the child has a hernia. It's also a condition that has reappeared recently, as before there was no crying or pain. The child is still young, so the doctor recommended surgical treatment. I want to understand what a hernia is?Doctor's answer:
It is due to the local weakness of the peritoneal soft tissue, the child's excessive crying, or even intense exercise, straining during bowel movements, and other situations that cause a decrease in intra-abdominal pressure to occur again, making it easy to experience symptoms of hernia again. Specific diagnosis is required in combination with clinical examination. Hello, if there is a possibility of spontaneous resolution within the first year of life, appropriate manual techniques should be applied, followed by the use of a hernia belt to provide local fixation after.
