Patient's question:

The son always urinates to one side, and besides the redness and swelling, he often scratches with his hand. So, we took the child to the children's hospital for a thorough examination, which confirmed it to be pediatric hernia. Timely surgical treatment was performed. How to protect against pediatric hernia?

Doctor's answer:

After pediatric hernia surgery, rest is important. Avoid strenuous crying or irritation. Post-surgery, avoid spicy and irritating foods as well as foods that may exacerbate symptoms. Maintain a light, regular diet and ensure adequate nutrition. You can regularly visit the general surgery department of the local surgical hospital for wound cleaning, dressing changes, and wound care. Pay attention to wound hygiene to prevent inflammation and infection. Monitor your recovery progress, maintain a regular sleep schedule, avoid staying up late, and engage in appropriate exercise.
