Patient's question:
Doctor, my baby was diagnosed with hernia two days ago. She has been taking medication for treatment, but in the past two days, I've noticed her abdomen making a rumbling sound, which might be due to gas. She has been crying non-stop, and she looks very pitiful. What should I do about the gas caused by the hernia?Doctor's answer:
Due to the tendency to experience local edema again during excessive crying, it is appropriate to decide to stabilize unhealthy lifestyle habits and pay attention to preventing situations such as straining during bowel movements and abdominal bloating from recurring. Local manual reduction followed by local fixation can be appropriately applied. It is important to be mindful of preventing excessive crying in children to avoid acute impaction, among other issues. Specific treatment should be integrated with clinical diagnosis, with surgery being the primary method of treatment.
