Patient's question:
The child said today that their stomach hurts, and they've been crying all the time. The family is very worried and quickly took the child to the hospital for a thorough examination. The doctor said the child has a bladder hernia. We're not familiar with what this is, so we'd like to ask for some information. What is a bladder hernia, and how should it be treated?Doctor's answer:
Hernia is mainly caused by weak skin and is common in the elderly and children. It is related to increased abdominal pressure due to physical weakness. Long-term heavy lifting and coughing can exacerbate the condition. If a hernia persists for a long time or affects intestinal blood supply, it may worsen further with age. If symptoms do not improve after a period of time and persist, surgical treatment is recommended.
