Patient's question:
My child is not feeling well and crying very hard. There is always a big lump in the waist area, which is very hard. Then we went to the hospital, and the doctor said it was a hernia. Also, my child's testicles are one big and one small. The doctor said it doesn't need to be dealt with. Please ask, what causes pediatric hernia?Doctor's answer:
Hello, hernia is also known as "scrotal hernia," which is a mass of abdominal organs that protrude through an upper or weak point in the normal position of the abdominal wall. Under normal circumstances, factors such as coughing, constipation, anger, heavy physical labor, and difficulty urinating cause sudden increases in abdominal pressure, which then break through the peritoneum of the hernia ring. Children often cry. Therefore, depending on the situation, it is best to go to the hospital for further diagnosis and examination, and then adopt reasonable treatment based on the results of the examination.
