Patient's question:
Currently, in general: Can you give me a more detailed answer to the question just now? (My child is 40 days old. Since birth, they have been having yellow, watery diarrhea, with clear water in the stool, about four or five times a day. Is this normal? Also, the child's abdomen is a bit hard. What's going on?Doctor's answer:
Hello, the condition you mentioned may be a symptom of hydrocele. Generally, a simple transillumination test or ultrasound can provide a clear diagnosis. This is related to the child's congenital development and has the possibility of self-healing. Usually, if the hydrocele is not very large, it has little impact on the child. You can wait until the child is 2 years old to see if it recovers. If it doesn't, consider surgery. If it is particularly large, the pressure it generates may affect the development of the child's testicles, and it is best to have surgery as soon as possible. The surgery is very simple and can generally be performed in most hospitals.
