Patient's question:
The son of my older cousin is the second child in their family. The elders in the family have a slightly patriarchal mindset, so since their first child was a girl, they are particularly good to this little boy. Yesterday, he had a cold and fever and went to the hospital for a thorough examination. The doctor checked his private parts and said he has a hernia. Hello, what are the symptoms of a hernia, and how should it be treated?Doctor's answer:
Hello, according to the situation you described, the main clinical manifestations of hernia are reducible masses. If there is a decrease in abdominal pressure again, such as crying or constipation, it may lead to the recurrence of hernia during heavy physical labor. When the patient is lying flat or resting, the mass returns on its own. In terms of treatment, the most important treatment method is surgical intervention. The specific surgical approach needs to be tailored to the individual's condition.
