How to treat 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, it's a pleasure to answer your question for you: For the situation of your child, it is recommended to use a hernia belt. Most children will recover from hernia on their own around the age of 3, and surgery will not be necessary. However, some patients may need to go to the hospital for surgical repair. 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.
