Called the doctor, and the doctor said the internal injury had not yet healed.
What kind of help is needed:
Hello, is this a medical accident?
Doctor's answer:
After the surgery, the parent suddenly developed a high fever with dry heaves, nausea, and vomiting. It is suspected to be acute gastroenteritis caused by improper nursing care, possibly due to exposure to cold or consuming spoiled food. However, the condition has now improved.It has only been a little over ten days since the surgery, and the wound has not fully healed yet. Additionally, the inguinal hernia area is prone to pain, which can easily interfere with movement. It is recommended to wait for a month and then carefully observe the situation. Currently, it is not yet possible to consider this a medical accident.
