Patient's question:
I went to the hospital with my mother-in-law to visit my sister's sick son. When we arrived, I saw that my sister had aged several years overnight. My sister said her son had undergone an inguinal hernia surgery. I wanted to help ask what are the postoperative precautions for pediatric inguinal hernia surgery?Doctor's answer:
Hello, this family member, after the child's hernia surgery, it is necessary to rest, have a reasonable diet, and avoid the baby crying, which may lead to hernia and hinder recovery. Only by getting enough bed rest can the wound heal and recurrence be avoided. The main reasons for recurrence are related to the baby crying and increased abdominal pressure. To prevent the recurrence of this disease and recover health early, it is essential to combine a quiet environment for the baby with bed rest to control recurrence.
